On September 10, 2017, Kenneka Jenkins was found dead in a walk-in freezer at a Crowne Plaza Hotel in Rosemont, Illinois where she had gone for a party with friends and had been missing for a day.
She was discovered after an hours long search and was pronounced dead at 12:48 a.m. Sunday morning.
Jenkins left her house in the 2100 block of West Warren Boulevard around 11:30 p.m. Friday September 8, 2017, to attend a party with friends in a hotel room at the Crowne Plaza Chicago O'Hare Hotel & Conference Center in Rosemont.
Witnesses stated they seen Jenkins at a party on the ninth floor of the hotel.
Teresa Martin, the mother of Kenneka, said her daughter's friends called her after 4:00 a.m. Saturday to say they had lost track of Jenkins in the hotel and left after they were unable to find her.
The friends stated they were in the car Teresa had lent her daughter for the night and they had Jenkins' cellphone.
Teresa headed to the hotel at around 5:00 a.m. Saturday to try to find her daughter.
Hotel staff told her they needed a missing persons report from police before they could start reviewing surveillance video of the premises.
Teresa then called the Rosemont Police Department and was told to wait a few hours before filing the report to see if Jenkins turned up.
Jenkins' friends have accused Monifah Shelton of setting her up in exchange for $200.00, the rumors have not been proven to be accurate.
Roberts had also posted a Facebook Live video before Kenneka's death.
