Tiffany Foster

35-year-old Tiffany Foster was last seen leaving her home in Newnan, Georgia, on March 1, 2021. According to her family, she was on her way to the grocery store. It is unclear if she made it there. On March 2, she was reported missing after failing to show up at her college class. Six days later, Tiffany’s Nissan Altima was found in College Park, about 30 miles from her home, with her purse and keys inside the car. Tiffany’s family told Dateline that she was a devoted mother who had recently become engaged. At a March 23 press conference Tiffany’s fiancé, Reginald Robertson, appeared with deputies and pleaded for the public to come forward with information on Tiffany’s whereabouts. In October of 2021, Toby Nix, Public Information Officer for the Coweta County Sheriff’s Office told Dateline that while investigating Tiffany’s disappearance, investigators with the sheriff’s office discovered evidence of an incident that had occurred in November 2020, prior to Tiffany’s disappearance, in which Robertson, allegedly kidnapped and assaulted her. Robertson was arrested and charged with kidnapping and aggravated assault for that prior incident. He is currently being held in Coweta County without bond. Nix added that Robertson is considered a person of interest in Tiffany's disappearance, but he has not been charged or named a suspect. Tiffany is described as being 5’2” and weighs 220 lbs. The Coweta County Sheriff’s Office is offering an award of up to $60,000 for her safe return. Anyone with information regarding Tiffany’s whereabouts is asked to call the Coweta County Sheriff’s Office at 770-253-1502.

Foster’s fiancé, Reginald Robertson, was initially arrested and charged with “theft by taking auto” after investigators learned that he, along with another individual, had moved her vehicle after she’d been reported missing. The charge has since been dropped, with no reasoning released by authorities.

Robertson was also arrested and charged with Kidnapping Foster, resulting from an November 2020 incident uncovered by investigators as they have been investigating her disappearance.

It’s been almost two years since Tiffany Foster’s family has seen her.

They will be marking the second anniversary of her disappearance on March 1.

“It’s been two years for some people,” said her sister, Kimberly Bryan. “But we’re literally stuck in limbo. It’s not over for us.”

Foster, also known as Tiffany Starks, was last seen that Monday in 2021 at Creekside at White Oak apartments in Newnan. She was reported missing on March 2.

“She had a trip planned for Texas that she didn’t make the flight on and she didn’t report to work,” according to Toby Nix, public information officer for the Coweta County Sheriff’s Office.

Foster’s car, a dark blue 2020 Nissan Altima, was found at a parking lot in College Park, Georgia, a week after she disappeared. Personal belongings including her purse and credit card were in the car. Fosters’ phone, which was not in the car, has not been active since 2:58 p.m. the day she disappeared. It was last used just north of Amlajack Boulevard according to Fosters’ file with the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System.

Her boyfriend at the time, Reginald Robertson, was charged with vehicle theft in connection with moving the car, but the charges were eventually dropped because a jury probably wouldn’t convict him, Nix said.

“He did move it,” Nix said. “It was just, ‘I’m living with my girlfriend; can’t I move her car?’”

But, Robertson is currently in jail awaiting trial for allegedly kidnapping Foster in November 2020.

The group also spoke on behalf of the family of Tiffany Foster, who disappeared under suspicious circumstances out of Coweta County in March 2021. Her fiancée was reportedly the last person to see her alive. He told authorities she had left the couple’s apartment and went shopping.

"All of our kids deserve answers," said McCoy. "Regardless of their background, their past, or where they have been, or lead in life. We all deserve answers and they deserve justice."

Tiffany Foster: “We have a family group chat, and when nobody had heard from Tiffany in two days, we knew something was wrong,” Kimberly Bryan told me this week about her sister, whose abandoned car was found 30 miles from her Georgia home, purse and keys still inside, in 2021. Her fiancé was later charged with moving the vehicle but was not arrested for her disappearance, which remains unsolved.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2023/07/27/carlee-russell-missing-black-women/

If you asked the loved ones of Tiffany Nicole Foster to describe her, they would say she was a responsible person. The mother of three was a devoted parent dedicated to her job and education. Tiffany, 35, was enrolled at Georgia Military College, majoring in criminal justice. While focusing on her studies, she also worked at Hello Fresh as a security guard. Her dedication was admired, and things seemed to be in line—but Tiffany was at odds with her fiancé, Reginald Robertson. Yet, it would only be months before she graduated and looked forward to a new career in law enforcement.

Three days after she vanished, Tiffany also missed her shift at work, and it would take her mother to call the police. Quickly, Robertson became a person of interest, and until this day, he remains their primary suspect in Tiffany’s disappearance. The couple’s history fueled investigators, specifically a domestic violence incident that was said to have occurred in 2020.

“You can’t explain the feeling. I have sad days where I just cry all day,” Tiffany’s mother, Katrina Hill, told 11 Alive News.

One week after Tiffany Nicole Foster went missing, her vehicle was located. On March 8, her Nissan Altima was recovered almost 30 miles away in College Park. Tiffany’s purse, keys, and only bank card were inside the car, but it was unclear if anything there helped the investigation. Nevertheless, police still had Robertson in their sights, and in April 2021, just one month after Tiffany mysteriously disappeared, he was arrested. However, it wasn’t about the disappearance.

“I don’t get any sleep—wondering where she is, what happened. It’s just devastating,” Tiffany’s mother said.

The domestic violence incident from November 2020 was still an open case, and Robertson was arrested and charged with kidnapping and aggravated assault. Meanwhile, as they looked into Tiffany’s missing person case, police uncovered that it was Robertson who moved her car to College Park. He was later charged with theft, but that charge was dropped.

“I don’t want to keep having these anniversaries. I wish that we could find her. Yeah, so we could just kind of put the pieces together,” Tiffany’s sister Kim Bryan told Fox 5 News in March 2023. Tiffany’s mother would add elsewhere, “I just want to know where my baby is. Is she OK? I just need answers and closure. And justice will l follow after that.”

Larry Starks, Tiffany’s father, passed away at 65 in the past year. Kim believes the weight of Tiffany’s case greatly affected his health.

Foster’s abandoned vehicle was recovered with her cellphone and purse inside on March 8, 2021.

In March 2023, Robertson was charged for allegedly stealing it.

At the time, he was also slapped with charges for allegedly kidnapping and assaulting her in an altercation that took place in November before Foster’s March disappearance, the Coweta County Sheriff’s Office told Fox News Digital.

At the time, police told FOX 5 Atlanta, Robertson was uncooperative with investigators.

It is unclear what new evidence has been obtained to justify murder charges handed down last Thursday.

Since his March arrest, Robertson has remained in custody at Coweta County Jail.
