31-year-old Jessica Earl was last seen in Tallapoosa, GA on June 8, 2018. Jessica was looking to purchase an ATV for her son's birthday. A man that Jessica had met just about a month earlier offered to help her find one to buy. In fact, he said he had a friend who was selling one. Jessica gave him the money but never received the ATV. She was very upset over this and tracked the man down to get her money back. The two had an argument and the man took Jessica’s car keys. Jessica decided to leave on foot and called a friend asking for a ride. That was the last time anyone heard from Jessica Earl.
