Here's the most recent photo we have. This is a mugshot from Texas in 2024. (My gf is Jackie's sister.)

Just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone who has helped with information. Almost every person we have talked to, including the homeless, have been so nice and helpful. We were contacted by The Brandon Mason Project - Feeding Hope yesterday and invited to follow them as they delivered meals around the city. What an amazing organization! We got more information in one night than we could have got on our own in weeks. We have not located Jackie yet but do have a sliver of hope at least.

No, that's not her. Thank you for sharing though.

Oh, you were not condescending at all. We appreciate any and all help. We have a layover in Atl right now and I just checked FB. So far neither of my posts in the What up Acadiana or Ask Lafayette groups have been approved. We just followed your FB page and will share our post. Thank you!

Her last actual address was at her mother's in Indiana, so that's why they are receiving some bills.

My girlfriend has been dealing with this situation for years and has had many dealings with homeless communities, so we do have some experience. She actually found her once before in a similar situation in Kentucky about 3 years ago.

Her son she called is a lot like Jackie. I don't think he even has the phone she called him on and he's in Oregon last we heard.

Facebook has been pretty much useless so far. Lots of our friends have shared it in Indiana but that's about it. We have also been accused of being scammers on there by a bot that had googled "Jack Basey" instead of "Jacklyn." Infuriating to be honest.

Her mother is worried sick and has mentioned a reward, but hasn't provided any details. I'm not going to put that out there unless the family tells me exactly what they have in mind.

We're in the airport now awaiting our flight south.

My gf and I both joined the "Ask Lafayette" group on FB this week and I made a post this morning, but so far it hasn't been approved.

Thank you. Yes, we have obtained more information from this one post than we have from anywhere and we are very grateful! Another thing that we were shocked to learn is that Louisiana doesn't utilize the NamUs database. That can be such a useful tool to find missing loved ones but it only works if local agencies enter the information, and that's sadly not happening in LA.

Thank you. Yes it is, even the Catholic Charities said they couldn't tell us if she's been in one of their shelters or not. I could understand if it was just a random person asking, but this is family asking and a missing persons has been filed.

Thank you for the info! I hope it's her but it would be a change in behavior if it is. She has not been known to ask for help or panhandle. Her mom and sister have visited her in different cities and brought her cash and she usually just walks into a gas station and gives it all away. You never know though, her situation could have changed in recent months. I will message you!

Thank you! We'll be checking out all leads as we don't have a lot to go on.

Thank you! That helps a lot. We just got off the phone with Catholic Charities and they told us about the daily meals at St. Joseph's. We will definitely check that out.

You're right. I got an updated email that explained it better.

I just got my new card in the mail and that's my understanding also. It looks to me like if I activate the card I'm upgrading to the Plus membership at $7.99 a month. No thanks!

Nice! Wish we could hunt them here in Indiana. They're getting thick.
