Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP59671)
Imonni Shanae Jackson was 26 years old when she was reported missing after last being seen in connection with travel to Manhattan, New York, on July 6, 2019. She was a woman whose missing person case was entered into NamUs as case MP59671, with the listed missing date tied to Manhattan and New York County. Public case information described her as approximately 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing about 170 to 185 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.
She was also described as having a very short haircut, though she often wore her hair tied up in a head wrap, and she sometimes wore non-prescription dark sunglasses.
The circumstances available online indicate that Imonni had been living with family in South Carolina before she expressed that she wanted to return to New York, where she had previously lived. Family reportedly arranged a bus ticket for her to travel back, and she was expected to arrive at a bus station on Canal Street in New York City. According to the public case narrative, family members watched her board the bus, and that was the last confirmed point at which they saw or heard from her. The details available publicly are limited, but the account suggests that her disappearance began during what should have been a straightforward trip back to a familiar city.
The descriptions circulated in connection with the case included several personal identifiers that could have helped distinguish her if someone saw her after she boarded the bus. She was reported to have a large tattoo on her left thigh reading “SAGITTARIUS,” with roses around it, along with tattoos connected to the names Tiffany and Anthony. The clothing description associated with the last time she was seen stated that she had a white head wrap, a white long-sleeve dress shirt, white stretch pants, and gray flip-flop sandals. Those details gave the case a more personal and urgent shape, because they placed Imonni not as an abstract missing person entry, but as a young woman last remembered by relatives in specific clothing, with distinctive markings, beginning a trip her family expected her to complete safely.
Officially reported information indicates that Imonni Jackson was later found alive, and her case is no longer considered an active missing persons case. The exact date and circumstances of her recovery are not clearly detailed in the publicly available records reviewed, so no specific recovery date should be stated. What remains publicly visible is a brief but meaningful record of concern: a 26-year-old woman leaving South Carolina for Manhattan, a family watching her board a bus, limited information afterward, and a missing person report that drew attention because of the lack of public detail. In overview, Imonni Jackson’s case began as a frightening disappearance connected to interstate travel and uncertainty in New York City, but it ultimately ended with the most important outcome possible in a missing person case: she was found alive.Last Seen: Jul 6, 2019
