Lisa Michelle Hatchell was last seen at approximately 10:00 p.m. in the vicinity of the 5400 block of Warrington Avenue in Philadelphia, outside of the row house she shared with her boyfriend, Tyrone Henderson.
Lisa was a U.S. Army veteran whose case was not officially opened as a missing person until two years after she was reporting missing, according to her mother, Alonie Watson.
Tips indicate that she was seen in the Atlanta, Georgia, area as late as 2008. She may also be in New Jersey.
Lisa was a crack cocaine user, but despite her drug use, it was uncommon of her not to stay in touch with family. Lisa's mother has since relocated to South Carolina and continues to research her daughter's case.
