BERKELEY, Mo. – Police in St. Louis continue to investigate months after four adults and two young children living in the area vanished without a trace. Police claim the group joined an online cult before disappearing.
A spokesperson for the Berkeley Police Department said the group was living in 25-year-old Makayla Wickerson’s home near St. Louis Lambert International Airport for months before vanishing.
Wickerson’s mother, Cartisha Morgan, said she is living her worst nightmare. She has not heard from Wickerson or her 3-year-old granddaughter since March. She tried calling for welfare checks and asking child services to intervene, ultimately to no avail.
“I was trying to let them know that something was not right,” Morgan said.
Morgan said her daughter had been manipulated by an online cult led by Rashad Jamal.
Jamal, whose legal last name is White, is a self-proclaimed prophet with tens of thousands of followers. At present, he’s serving an 18-year sentence in Georgia for child molestation.
