GA GA - Melanie Nadler Litt, 52, Kennesaw/Marietta, 13 Oct 2025

It’s very weird! Barrett Parkway is one of the busiest areas in Cobb County. I can’t imagine anyone leaving a vehicle there thinking they wouldn’t be on a camera or seen by more than a few people.

The wording on some of the missing posters and article has been updated to say she doesn't have her phone, rather than she left without her phone. So she may have gone directly to where her car was found and the phone was there as well.

Hopefully she was seen and they already have some video to lead them somewhere.

Edited: Then there is this report: Friends tell Atlanta News First that the Cobb County dentist did not show up for work on Tuesday and went missing from the Kennesaw-Marietta area. They said her phone was at home, and her car was found in a "large parking lot" on Barrett Parkway.

Did she go home first or not?

Good catch. How would anyone know that she had gone missing on the 13th?
IMO.

This is a really central question. The circumstances of who does (and does not) report a missing person can be informative.

I believe it's called Cobb Place. Barrett Pkwy, just west of 75.The shopping center anchored by DSW.

I wonder if her dental office was closed Monday or if she had the day off, etc. Because she was reported missing on Monday but her dental office wasn’t alarmed until Tuesday when she didn’t show up. It seems like whoever reported her missing didn’t check with her coworkers before doing so. The reports I have read make it sound like her office didn’t know anything until Tuesday when she didn’t show up. I would think her coworkers would be some of the first people contacted.

These early reports are very confusing: She was seen Monday night leaving work, but almost immediately reported missing and her phone is at home...

Possibly closed for the holiday on Monday?
But very weird that hubby reported her missing on the 13th while he was out of town.

Did she go home first or not?

If she worked that day, I would think that she went home first, as her phone was at home from what has been reported.

When was the car located?

IMO.

Thank you for this!
The only other location in Cobb that I see her practicing at is off Whitlock, and that's not even close to West Cobb. She is definitely practicing in Dallas, though. Back to researching...
IMO.

That’s weird too because her practice is not anywhere near the West Cobb/Marietta area.

I was just looking for a third location too! I guess if she was seen leaving work Monday night, she did work that day but I feel like some of the details being reported are inaccurate.

Since this is sort of local for me, it has been in my SM feeds all day now. Some of the info is confusing. I have seen her husband and son last saw her Monday evening, but was reported missing because she did not show up for work on Tuesday. So what time did someone see her at home Monday? Didn't anyone see her late in the evening Monday, or in the a.m. at home on Tuesday?

I have also read that the husband was out of town. Did she make it home from work Monday? Was there anything odd at the house that would point to an abduction?

Were there any cameras in the Cobb Place lot? It is a very large parking lot, but nearly all of it is wide open from what I recall.

Praying they find this woman.

I hope her husband didn’t report her missing Monday and leave town Tuesday.

Looks like we might need to wait for this one to settle a bit to get accurate information.

The basic first questions are a little murky- who last saw her, when, where, and who reported her missing, and when. Where are her personal belongings (phone, keys, purse). Has anyone used her credit or bank cards, is there video of her parking or receipts from the stores in that mall?

I believe their home is a bit closer to that area; not far off of Barrett Pkwy in West Cobb

About twenty minutes from where her car was found, depending on traffic.
IMO.

Off topic, but wow-I had no idea so many of you here are local to that area! I lived in that area my whole life until I moved a couple of years ago. I think she looks familiar to me.
