The mother of Kierra Coles is desperate for answers after her daughter went missing four years ago in Chicago.

Kierra Coles missing persons case

Coles was last seen on Oct. 2, 2018 near 83rd and King Drive. Her car was found parked on her block with her purse and cell phone still inside.

Coles was a postal worker and pregnant at the time of her disappearance.

After very few leads, Kierra’s mother  Karen Phillips is now urging the FBI to get involved in the case.

Last June, Chicago police released surveillance video showing Coles walking into her apartment and then leaving and entering a car with a male hours later.

Coles later withdrew money from an ATM inside a store on S. Cottage Grove. She exits minutes later in what police said are the last recorded images of the 26-year-old.

“Can’t nobody image the pain that I go through daily,” Phillips said. “Missing my child, not hearing her voice. Not knowing if she had her child. Not knowing if she is suffering every day. No knowing if her child is suffering every day. Please help me bring Kierra home. And to Kierra, if you are watching this. We’re not going to stop. I’m trying to do everything in my power to help bring you home.”
