The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is turning to the public for assistance in the search for Judith Tillett, a 76-year-old woman reported missing from Davidson County. According to a recent social media post by the TBI, Tillett is described as being 5’1”, approximately 129 lbs., with gray hair and brown eyes. Last seen in Nashville on Sunday, she was dressed in shorts, a white t-shirt, and running shoes.
Adding to the concern is the fact that Tillett has a medical condition that may impair her ability to safely return without assistance. She is possibly traveling in a black 2008 Acura, Tennessee license plate BGP3103. The TBI's emphasis on the need for assistance highlights the urgency of the situation, and the community's role in aiding the search for Tillett cannot be understated.
The TBI has enacted a Silver Alert, a notification system aimed at disseminating information about missing individuals, especially seniors, who suffer from Alzheimer's, dementia, or other mental disabilities. This strategic move is designed to engage the public's help in the safe recovery of those who are the most vulnerable among us. The Bureau has made resources available for those wishing to contribute to the search, encouraging individuals to download the TBI Find App for more details on this and other alerts, available at tbi.pub/TBIFindApp.
Anyone who spots Judith Tillett or has information regarding her whereabouts is urged to make contact with the Metro Nashville Police Department at 615-862-8600 or call 1-800-TBI-FIND. Every second counts in cases like these, and a quick community response could be pivotal in ensuring Tillett's safe return. As the investigation continues, updates are expected to be provided by the TBI.
