Chicago police on Tuesday made the unusual move of re-issuing a missing person bulletin, hoping someone will help them crack the case of a woman who has not been seen in nearly four years.
Cheretha Morrison was 38 when she dropped her daughter off at school in the 2000 block of West 62nd Street on February 26, 2021. According to the CPD’s updated bulletin, she was last seen a short time later driving her silver 2006 Porsche Cayenne in the 6900 block of South Throop.
School administrators contacted Morrison’s family when she didn’t pick her daughter up after class.
Morrison’s car was found three days later in the 7400 block of North Winchester in Rogers Park. CPD continues to hold the vehicle.
Family members said Morrison, who was almost four months pregnant when she went missing, had argued with someone on the phone the day before she went missing. Friends of Morrison have reported that she was involved in a “toxic” relationship, but police have not linked anyone to her disappearance or even stated if they suspect foul play.
Morrison was 4’11” tall and 140 pounds when she went missing. She has brown eyes, a piercing on the right side of her lower lip, and several tattoos, according to the sheriff’s office: a large Heart with the word “Cheryl” inside of the heart and R.I.P above the heart on her left upper arm; the word “Glorious” on her left forearm; a large rose on her right upper arm; and the name “Rita” on the right side of her neck.
CPD’s Special Victims Unit is handling the investigation. They can be reached at 312-747-8380.
