The case of Kierra Coles is one that is popular in the media and it has received a lot of coverage. One factor in that is that Coles was a postal worker. I'm assuming that since her clothing at the time of her disappearance was a "Postal worker uniform" that she went missing while on duty or while on her commute. That is a significant part of this case, in my opinion. 

Below, is a news video that covers some details of her disappearance. The posting date of the video is September 2020. It includes a segment of a surveillance video that may be of Coles. However, the father expresses his disbelief in this.


That Kierra was in her work uniform indicates that she was in her daily routine. I don't know of any cases of missing people where the MP was a postal employee on duty at the time of her disappearance. 

However, there are plenty of cases of missing women who went missing during their work shifts or commutes. An attractive woman that goes missing while she is in her daily work-related routine may have been disappeared by someone that had daily visual access to the area where she was last seen.

Whenever a woman goes missing, the boyfriend or husband might draw some attention. That may be all the more the case when pregnancy is involved. However, it's also important not to develop tunnel vision. 

If Kierra went missing while walking a route that she used day after day, then questions of who knew her route and who was attracted to her should come into play. If her pregnancy wasn't yet showing then she might have still been attractive in the eyes of an abductor that was somehow familiar with her routine.


The uniform, the tattoos, and the fetus may all produce leads in this case having to do with a Jane Doe ahead of DNA testing. Additionally, it would be wise to note any broken bones that she may have suffered at any point in her life in her NamUs profile.
