In 2004, 21-year-old Jennifer Wix and her 2-year-old daughter Adrianna disappeared in Robertson County, Tennessee. Jennifer’s family, including her mother Kathy, sister Casey, and aunt Lisa, have been searching for answers for two decades. They recall Jennifer as a sweet yet headstrong young woman who adored her daughter. Kathy remembers a conversation where Jennifer spoke of Adrianna as her angel who had saved her life.
The timeline leading up to Jennifer and Adrianna’s disappearance is murky. They had been living with Jennifer’s boyfriend, Joey Benton, prior to vanishing. Joey claimed to have dropped them off at a grocery store before they supposedly left with someone in a white car. Joey’s account was never independently corroborated by investigators.
Family members remember receiving distressing calls from Jennifer prior to her disappearance, indicating she was unhappy living with Joey’s family. Lisa Fierro recalls Jennifer saying she planned to leave Joey. On March 25, 2004, something urgent happened that required Joey to leave work suddenly, indicating a significant event.
Despite years of searching and investigations, the fate of Jennifer and Adrianna remains unknown. The Robertson County Sheriff’s Office handled the initial investigation, but key details provided by Joey Benton were never confirmed. Family members continue to seek closure and hope for answers as they honor the memory of Jennifer and Adrianna. Joey Benton has agreed to an interview with Dateline but has yet to provide further information. The community is urged to come forward with any information that may help solve this two-decade-old mystery.
