Jelani Day’s Family Still Seeking Answers 2 Years After He Disappeared And Was Found Dead
In an interview with Kendall Rae on her True Crime show, Carmen explained why Jelani was so special.
“He was that kid that was curious and so smart,” she said. “He would get his stuff done, get his work done. The teacher would call me and say ‘Jelani, he’s a good student, good kid, but he just doesn’t wanna stop talking. He’s always playing.’”
Jelani was a standout athlete who earned a scholarship for track and field. He also stayed busy with several clubs and organizations at school. As a graduate student, Jelani was studying speech pathology.
The weekend before he went missing, the Illinois student went to Texas to help his sister move into grad school. When he came back from Texas, Jelani called his mother to let her know that he has returned safely.
Also at that time, as his father was battling cancer, Jelani had decided that he would donate bone marrow to help his dad because he was found to be the closest match. But everything changed when Jelani suddenly disappeared shortly after coming back from Texas.
