30-year-old 'endangered' woman with disabilities missing from East Point since May
EAST POINT, Ga. - A national nonprofit is shining light on a months-long search to find a woman with a multitude of medical needs who left her dad's East Point home in May 2024 and hasn't been seen since.
Destiney Gunnison, 30, was on her way to a friend's house in Oakland City on May 12, according to her mother, who spoke with FOX 5 Atlanta.
"Destiney has been missing for seven months, and I'm just reaching out to the community because she has health issues and I would really like the community to pitch in and find her so we can get her back home," the mother said. She asked not to be identified because she fears there was foul play in her daughter's disappearance and fears for her own safety.

Gunnison is 5-feet-5-inches tall, has black hair and brown eyes. Her mother said she has the mental capacity of a child and has seizures which she requires medication for. She also walks with a slight twist and has a light tick at times.
The Black and Missing Foundation has been posting about Gunnison's disappearance to boost awareness.
If you see her or have any information about her whereabouts since May, give East Point police a call at 404-761-2177 and ask for Sgt. Leary.
