Lovely Brooks Missing Virginia

Name: Lovely Andreya Brooks
Nickname: Angie
Age: 53 years old
Last seen: January 10, 2023
Location: Richmond, Virginia
Status: Still Missing

Case Information

53-year-old Lovely Brooks was last seen on January 10, 2023 by her father when she left their home in Richmond, Virginia.

Background

Lovely Andreya Brooks, known to friends and family as “Angie,” began identifying as a transgender female at the age of eighteen.

At the time of her disappearance, Brooks was living with her aging father, whom she was taking care of, in a house on Barlen Drive in Richmond, Virginia.

Disappearance

On the morning of January 10, 2023, Lovely Brooks was last seen by her father when she left their home in the 1000 block of Barlen Drive in Richmond, Virginia. Everything seemed normal, and it appeared as if she was planning to come back soon.

Lovely never returned home and hasn’t been heard from since.

On January 18, 2023, her sister filed a missing person’s report with the Richmond Police Department when her family couldn’t contact her.

Investigation

Lovely had her purse and cell phone with her when she disappeared, however she left most of her personal belongings behind, including her cell phone charger and suitcase.

Lovely did not have transportation at the time, and her cell phone went straight to voicemail after her disappearance. Her bank account has had no activity since she disappeared, aside from automatic social security disability deposits.

She is close with her family, and they say she wouldn’t just walk away. It’s uncharacteristic of her to leave without letting them know where she was going.

Whereabouts

Foul play is suspected in Lovely Brooks’s disappearance. The investigation is currently ongoing and active.

The circumstances of Lovely Brooks’s disappearance remain unclear and her case is currently classified as missing. Her case remains unsolved.

    Has she got any other transgender friend ‘ s , or family member ‘ s .
    Did something happen / said leading up to her disappearance , or did she feel that she could no longer handle the situation on her own , without any assistance , and got too much for her , and walked away ? .

    Just wanted to say I noticed a typo. It says she was reported missing on January 18, 2018 instead of 2023. I love this blog and hold this case close to my heart. Thanks for all that this blog does for the missing ❤️
