For over 15 agonizing years, since April 9, 2009, our family has been searching for answers in the unsolved disappearance of Alyssa McLemore. Alyssa wasn’t just my cousin; she was my sister in every way that counts. The pain of her absence is immeasurable, and the silence from the Kent Police Department has only deepened our trauma. The 911 call Alyssa made just before she vanished has never been released, leaving us in the dark about crucial information that could help bring justice.

Alyssa has a daughter who is now 19, who deserves answers about what happened to her mother. Holding this call back is not only a disservice to our family but to her daughter who lives every day without knowing what could have happened to her mom. The withholding of this vital piece of evidence by the Kent Police Department, for over a decade, is a betrayal of the public trust and a glaring injustice.

We’re calling on the Kent Police Department to release Alyssa’s 911 call, either to the public or at least to a qualified family representative. After 15 years of waiting, this call could provide us with the closure we need and help move the investigation forward. Continuing to withhold it only deepens our suffering and raises doubts about the transparency of the investigation.

This is not just about our family—it’s about accountability, justice, and ensuring that this doesn’t happen to anyone else. Alyssa called for help. The Kent Police Department was supposed to protect her, but they’ve failed to protect us from this torment for over a decade. We need answers, and we need the community to stand with us.

This petition isn’t just a request—it’s a plea for justice and transparency. Your signature isn’t just a click—it’s an act of solidarity. By signing, you are standing with us, with Alyssa’s daughter, and with every family that has been failed by the system. Help us get the answers we deserve and ensure that Alyssa’s voice, silenced for 15 long years, can finally be heard.
