Julia Mae Williams, a 47-year-old woman from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, was last seen on June 30, 2005, though some reports list her disappearance date as July 11, 2005. She was reported missing in Broward County, and little is known about the circumstances surrounding her disappearance. Julia, who is 5'5" and weighed around 140 pounds at the time, had a history of drug abuse and was in need of therapeutic medication at the time of her disappearance.

Julia was known to use multiple aliases, including Gloria Jean Burke, Julia Mae Burke, and Pam Lewis, among others. She also had a distinctive scar on her forehead and was referred to by the nickname "Mama Hoochie." Despite the passage of time, her case remains unsolved, and law enforcement continues to seek information that might lead to a resolution. The Broward County Sheriff's Office is overseeing the investigation.

Her disappearance has perplexed investigators for years, and her family continues to search for answers. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact authorities to help bring closure to this long-standing case.
