Kelley Cristyn Brannon, a 36-year-old woman, disappeared from the Sunshine Inn in Live Oak, Florida on July 15, 2020, after leaving a voicemail stating she was 'getting in a car' following an argument with her boyfriend. Witnesses reported seeing her walking eastbound on US Highway 90 with her guitar, but it remains unknown whether she entered any of the vehicles visible on hotel security footage. Her disappearance is highly unusual given that she has had no contact with family or friends since that night and left behind all possessions including money and identification.
