Madina Lea Mitchell was 55 years old when she was listed as missing from Waynesville, Missouri, with a last-seen date of September 24, 2020. Available public information identifies her as a female, described in one online record under the same full name as White, with the later record listing brown hair, green eyes, a height of 5 feet 8 inches, and a weight of 110 pounds. Her disappearance began in Pulaski County’s Waynesville area, a small community in south-central Missouri, and the earliest publicly available details are limited: the record gives the date, place, age, and identity, but does not provide a clear account of what she was doing when she was last seen, who last had contact with her, what she may have been wearing, or whether there were immediate signs of danger.
In Missouri, missing-person information posted through the Missouri State Highway Patrol is drawn from the National Crime Information Center through the investigating agency and is updated daily; the agency notes that people seeking more information should contact the investigating agency connected to the case. That matters in Madina’s case because the public trail is sparse. There does not appear to be a detailed public narrative explaining the first hours or days after she was last seen, and there is no widely available official summary describing searches, investigative leads, family statements, or a confirmed timeline after September 24, 2020. What remains publicly visible is the quiet outline of a woman whose absence was serious enough to be entered into missing-person systems, while many of the human details that families and communities often rely on to understand a disappearance were never made broadly available.
Later online information indicates that Madina Lea Mitchell was found alive. A public booking record in Ellis County, Texas lists the same full name, Madina Lea Mitchell, as a 60-year-old female on August 12, 2025, which is consistent with a person who was 55 in 2020; that later record indicates she was living and identifiable by that date. The exact date she was located is unknown from the available online sources, and the public information is vague about how, where, or by whom her missing-person matter was resolved. Because the accessible sources do not provide a formal recovery announcement or a detailed resolution narrative, the most careful account is that Madina’s missing-person case began with her last being seen in Waynesville, Missouri, on September 24, 2020, when she was 55 years old, and that later records show she was alive by August 2025; the case should therefore be understood as no longer an active missing-person case, even though the publicly available record leaves many questions about the intervening years unanswered.
