Thinking aloud about this case

So a case I added yesterday, Niija Council, is a “few details” case, but I had plenty of photos, including pics of her tattoos, from Niija’s Facebook page. (She also put a photo of herself on a page called Team Bisexual. Maybe I could profile Niija for Pride Month in June.)

The thing is, Niija has posts on her Facebook from AFTER her official date of disappearance, September 1.

I don’t know whether September 1 was the date she was last physically seen by anyone, or if they just mean she was last seen sometime in September, or what. On September 11 she made four posts:

Later in the month she changed her profile picture multiple times, the last time on September 23. The comments on her September 16 profile picture change indicate people were pretty worried about her:

So I dunno what was going on there. It’s a struggle to piece what exactly happened from what I’ve got to work with. I hope Niija is alive and well somewhere.

Incidentally, I wish I could read the words tattooed on her neck and chest. I posted pictures of them on her casefile but I can’t tell what they say. Here’s larger photos below (the neck picture is from before she added the stars and squiggles) if you want to help me out:

    Hi Meaghan! Yes, the timeline of Niija’s disappearance is confusing seen as she appeared to be still posting on social media 11 days after she went missing.
    I wonder if her friends and/or family members have started a missing Facebook group or page where there might be more information about the case? I’ll see if I can find anything. Although, you’ve probably already searched for a missing group.
    I hope this woman is found safe.

      Me again… I can’t find a missing Facebook page or group for Niija. I can’t find a single newspaper article about her disappearance. I can’t even find a missing poster.
      It’s very sad…
      It’s great that you’re adding Niija’s case to The Charley Project. At least now there is information about her case online.
      Meaghan, you really are these missing people’s voices.

        Yeah, it is very sad. It’s not like no one cared about her, either, as can be evidenced by the Facebook comments. And she has a baby.

    Looks to me like H Nicky and Skysomething, maybe Skyreb. You’re correct that it’s difficult to say for sure. Is this any connection to her baby’s name?

    I live in Philadelphia and am always aware of the missing persons cases, I have never even heard of Niija 😦

    I was wondering if her disappearance is related to being a new mother. The mention of leaving the infant behind, could it be related to Post Partum depression. Also, there is no mention of her family. I hope her family is caring for the infant.

    I did some searching through some on-line data bases and came an entry where she is identified as Male. Also, they reference an alias name Jaden Za’ – fear Cirilo. They reference an address of 325 39th Street in Philadelphia. Also an address of 2138 N. 19th Street in Philadelphia. Supposedly she was connected to this address from 2012 to 2018. Some of her known associates are connected to that address at one time or another.

    So, Brooke, if decide to accept this mission, you need to check out these addresses. If you are caught, I will fly to Philly and bail you out. Just kidding.

    • Brooke April 20, 2018 / 9:32 am

      LOL! Those addresses aren’t in neighborhoods that I would like to be poking around in. I also found another Facebook for her, a name she used for her music. https://www.facebook.com/mrs.hill247

    • Brooke April 20, 2018 / 9:34 am

      Also, Cirilo is the last name of the baby’s birth father, from what I found on social media.

        Brooke good work. I was wondering about that name last night. When I searched it last night it linked to her.

        I have been in some not so good areas in Chicago. But, I have been known to get ugly. You should see me change when some of the young teens act at my local McDonalds.

        However, I have been to Philly, a few times and last October visiting a very special friend. This is the area where the police dropped the bomb on MOVE group.

    Shyrek, that’s her first love. And she has two children. Jaden and Ryan. Jaden is her oldest, Ryan is the baby.

    Hi, I’m naiijas older sister, and we have been looking for her for 6 years now…if you guys can help me and her ex girlfriend find her or more information…we would greatly be appreciated… We’re not sure about the whereabouts of her youngest son, her oldest son is with his father…and is also currently looking for her…my sister would never up and leave her children… We believe her boyfriend had something to do with her disappearance and were not sure how to find out more information. Or how we can find out where the boyfriend is now or how to find her son.
