Amysena Beatrice Chappell, an 18-year-old Black female, was last in contact with her family on either September 6 or September 7, 2004. At the time of her disappearance, she was described as being between 5'2" and 5'4" tall and weighing approximately 150 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Chappell, who went by the nickname Amy, had pierced ears.
There is some discrepancy in the location from which Chappell went missing. While her case is being investigated by the Antioch Police Department and she is listed as missing from Antioch, California, where her family resided, she was physically in Hawthorne, California, at the time of her last contact. She was expected to return to Antioch via an Amtrak train but never arrived. The distance between Antioch and Hawthorne is approximately 360 miles.
The circumstances surrounding her presence in Hawthorne are not detailed in available online sources. It is mentioned that she was supposed to contact her family with information regarding her Amtrak travel arrangements for her return home, but she never did. Few details about the investigation into her disappearance are publicly available. According to the Doe Network and information cited on Websleuths from NamUs Amysena Chappell's case has been closed; however, no further information regarding this closure is available. Additionally, the record for her case on the California Attorney General's Office website is no longer accessible.
