Family, friends and supporters gathered in Vallejo on Sunday for a benefit concert raising money to help find Chantel Brooks, a 37-year-old woman who has been missing for more than three months.
The “Bring Chantel Home” event at Noble Cinema Studios brought together local performers and members of the community to raise funds for the continuing search and keep awareness of Ms Brooks’s disappearance in the public eye.
Among those who performed were Mistah F.A.B, J. Stalin, Yung Lott, Jourdan Jade, Compton AV, Nef The Pharaoh and Kevin Robinson, Ms Brooks’s brother, who performs under the name Footz The Beast.
Ms Brooks was last seen on July 17 after leaving her job in San Francisco. Surveillance footage later showed her at a CVS in Fairfield in the early hours of the morning as she walked towards her vehicle.
Her family says her black Infiniti SUV was later detected by a licence-plate camera in East Oakland. Relatives have since helped organise searches, distributed flyers, paid for billboards and hired a private investigator as they pursue information about her whereabouts.
Fairfield police have said they suspect foul play in the disappearance, but no suspect or person of interest has been publicly identified. Investigators have carried out searches and reviewed evidence across Fairfield, Oakland and San Francisco.
Money raised through the concert will support investigative work, search activity, travel, printed materials and further efforts to publicise the case.
Mr Robinson has urged anyone with information about his sister to come forward, saying the family will continue searching until she is found.
