Where Are Jennifer And Adrianna Wix?

Jennifer Wix moved with her two year old daughter to her boyfriend's family compound on an 80 acre farm outside of Cross Plains, Tennessee in August of 2003.  She had told her mother that she had found her "prince".   Her boyfriend's entire family lived in this remote compound, aunts, uncles, grandparents.  They were rather reclusive and did not like outsiders.

Jennifer's relationship with her boyfriend turned sour quickly, though and her mother moved to the area to be closer to Jennifer and help her get through this time.  Jennifer had told her family members that her boyfriend had made some threatening remarks to her.

On Thursday, March 25, 2004, Jennifer's boyfriend claimed they argued and he drove her to a nearby gas station close to the interstate.  He claimed she got into the backseat of a white four door car with Adrianna.  He also said he did not see the driver of the car or what direction they were headed.  The car was alternately a white Mustang, a white Camaro and eventually, probably along the time the boyfriend realized that neither Mustangs nor Camaros come with four doors, the car became a Grand Prix.

The boyfriend claimed that Jennifer came back the next day, driving the same car, without Adrianna with her.

Jennifer did not take any personal belongings either for herself or Adrianna.  She had no money with her, no ID. 

His family will not allow their property to be searched, although it is the last place Jennifer and Adrianna were seen.  Although the Robertson County sheriff's department never said they suspected foul play, the case is listed as a criminal investigation.  They have never pushed the boyfriend's family to search the property thoroughly.  At one point, a volunteer search was organized and at the last minute, the family backed out.

The boyfriend does not have a great reputation, according to rumors.  In an unrelated incident, when he was placed in the back of a police car, he allegedly kicked out the back window and had to be hog tied.  He didn't have a regular job, yet always had a wad of cash.  Allegedly, he was working for his family building a home and being paid in cash.

Even if you follow missing persons cases, this may have been one you haven't heard about.  Kathy, Jennifer's mother and Adrianna's grandmother, has pushed very hard to get some national attention focused on this case, to very little avail.  Finally, it will be featured on Montel Williams on Friday, October 21.

The link below features pictures of both Jennifer and Adrianna.

I so want to catch Montel on Friday. Is there any way you could get a tape made, and ship it around?

Lisa, I think it's wonderful that you have taken on this very worthy case. I hope you get something going. I wish there was some way that Kathy could mention your blog on Montel's show so others could read your entry for information.

Thanks for this report Lisa. I too hope I am able to see Montel on Friday.

I assume Adriana is the daughter of the boyfriend?

Certainly seems suspicious that LE hasn't pursued this more aggressively, or should I say at all?

[Lisa]

Adrianna is not the boyfriend's daughter. Jennifer and her boyfriend had only been together 8 months when Jennifer and Adrianna disappeared. Adrianna was two at the time. Sorry for not making that more clear.

Dammit! I intended to watch or at least tape Montel today - but I got the time wrong, I was thinking he was on the same time as Oprah here, but he's on immediately before her. I knew I occasionally ran across the end of his show, and that's why. My sleep deprived brain is just not functioning correctly. So how was the show, any new info?

[Kathy]

Just wanted to let everyone know that there have been no leads at all from the Montel Show. I can't believe it, I am so disappointed. Thank you to all who support my search for the truth of what happened to Jennifer and Adrianna.

This is disturbing that the Cross Plains police didn't spend alot more time on this case. Epic failure on their part. I hope that no one forgets and continues to ask questions.

I don't understand how 1 person can go missing and even before 48 hours their face is plastered all over the major news, and national panic ensues. If these 2 only had half of that coverage...
