  • Barefoot in the desert: Ranelle Rose Bennett
    May 27 2024

    Ranelle Rose Bennett has been missing since June 15th, 2021. Ranelle had met with her mother, Rose Yazzie, to talk about Ranelle coming over to decorate Ranelle's daughter's birthday.


    Ranelle's kids lived with their grandma, Rose Yazzie... Rose asked Ranelle if her boyfriend, Kendall Johnson, was in the bedroom... Ranelle said that he was. When Rose left, Ranelle gave her a long, tearful hug, which Rose found unusual. Ranelle never showed up to decorate the house... she also didn't show up for her daughter's birthday.


    This was also unusual. Ranelle's daughter kept looking out the window at every car that passed by, expecting her mom to show up, but she never did. Since then, there have been no phone calls, texts, or any other communication from Ranelle.
