Family Fears Missing Breathitt County Woman in Danger

A Breathitt County woman is missing and her family believes she could be in danger. 29 year old Jessica Haddix Mullins was last seen in Sassafras in Knott County Saturday night.

Family members say the mother of four would never leave without talking to her family. They say Mullins has no money and could be in trouble.

Uncle Coleman Carroll says, "It's just like she vanished."

Family members say Jessica Haddix Mullins was last seen when she dropped off her youngest child at her boyfriend's home in Knott County about 10:30 Saturday night.

"I was told she dropped the baby off and left, and no one has seen her since then," says Carroll.

Mullins' aunt, Joyce Begley says, "As far as I know it was just a normal trip. I think that maybe her and her boyfriend had an argument the night before."

Mullins was last seen in a 1993 dark green Toyota. Family members say she is 5'8", about 135 pounds with blue eyes. State police say she is registered as a missing person and right now there is no evidence to believe that she is in danger. But family members are not so sure.

"I don't think she ran off, I think that jessica is in a lot of trouble right now. I don't know if it was on her own or somebody else's doing," says Begley. She says she was saving a special gift for Mullins and now hopes she will have the chance to give it to her.

"If she will come home I won't put it off, because I would rather give it to her now than let her wear it in a casket when we find her," says Begley.

"If she gets to see this, call, or get on back home because everyone is concerned and it's really taking its toll on her mother," says Carroll.

Mullins' other three children are with family in Breathitt County. Anyone with information about Jessica Mullins should call Kentucky State Police.

UPDATE:
Police are still looking for a missing Breathitt County woman that was last seen at her boyfriend's home in Knott County. Family members say police found 29 year old Jessica Haddix Mullins' car on an abandoned strip mine in Knott County, about five miles from her boyfriend's home. They say her food stamp card was used once after she went missing saturday night, but there are no other transactions on any of her cards since then.
