Randa Jawhari Part 1: Unknown Caller

Wondery
About this episode

On the evening of February 10, 2009, 42-year-old Randa Jawhari was alone at her apartment in Fenton, MI. Her parents had been by earlier that evening, and her mother had set out clothes for Randa. Later, Randa spoke to one of her sisters via telephone. That call ended around 11:30 PM. By the next morning, Randa’s mother became worried when she could not reach her, so she returned to Randa’s apartment. The clothes she had set out the night before were still there, seemingly undisturbed, but Randa was nowhere to be found. More than 15 years later, Randa’s family is still searching for answers.

If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Randa Jawhari, please contact the Fenton Police Department at (810) 629-5311 and ask for Detective Tom Cole. If you wish to remain anonymous, contact Crimestoppers of Flint and Genesee County at 1-800-422-JAIL (5245), the P3 Tips mobile app, or P3Tips.com/488.
