Jadyn Kennedy

A missing person’s report for Kennedy was filed on February 24. Police say Jaydn left the hotel at approximately 8:05 a.m.
 
She recently transferred her supervised probation (for second degree felony drug conviction) from Texas to New Mexico (Carlsbad) in January 2025. She also had 2 DWI's the second driving with a BAC greater than .15 so she got both jail time and probation for that.

“We just need some kind of clue, some hint…something that someone saw her, Frankie Kennedy, Jadyn’s grandmother said. “We’re not accusing anyone of anything. Just tell us, did you see her? Where did you see her? What time?”

Her family is especially concerned because Jadyn was always connected through her phone and social media. “She lived for that phone,” Frankie Kennedy said. “That phone was in her hand 24/7. But she hasn’t done any posting, no calls, no texts. That’s just not like her.”

One detail that stands out is that Kennedy’s purse was found inside her car. According to her grandmother, she had the purse with her when she left the motel, raising further questions about why it was later discovered in her vehicle.

Missing woman last seen at hotel in Carlsbad, New Mexico, found dead :(

Jaydn Kennedy with family and friends

Originally from McCamey, Kennedy graduated from Odessa College and lived in Odessa before moving to Carlsbad three months ago. Her grandmother, who goes by “Granny,” described their close relationship and Kennedy’s vibrant personality.
“She was family-oriented, very loving, especially when it came to me—she was really good to me. Independent, pretty strong—strong-willed, I’ll put it that way. When she got her mind set on something, she would do it.”

She left the hotel with her purse which was later found in the vehicle. That seems strange to me, if you left with your purse you clearly intended using any cash, cards etc at some point after leaving that hotel. The fact that it was left in the vehicle probably means she intended to return to the vehicle within a short amount of time. Did she stop off somewhere near the where the vehicle was with all intentions to return? Or was she forced out of the vehicle?
 
@imstilla.grandma, does the title need to be changed from TX to NM?
*It's been so confusing. At first it said Carsbad TX, so i looked up Carlsbad, tx and there is one so i checked just now and it still said TX Now it says New Mexico:??
CARLSBAD, NEW MEXICO (KOSA) - Family friends of Jadyn Kennedy have confirmed to First Alert 7 news that she has died and her body has been found.
 
In footage from the motel, Jadyn was seen walking away from the entrance carrying her purse; family members said her purse was later found in her vehicle ...

In another detail, police have reportedly taped off Kennedy’s apartment as a crime scene, though investigators have yet to release information about their findings.

Purse in car:
Did she normally lock her car?
If so where are her car keys? in her apt. or not found?
Did someone harm her in her apt, take the keys, and then put her purse in her car for whatever reason....to deflect?
This is so sad.

Her FB

RIP Jadyn - may justice be served

I know what you mean. I have trouble getting correct states a lot.

So she apparently was struggling with alcohol. Wonder if she abuse other substances? Maybe her reading for being at the hotel?
