Details of Disappearance
Bradley was last seen by her boyfriend at 12:30 p.m. on October 10, 2002. That afternoon, one of her three children was involved in a near-fatal car accident. When Bradley didn't arrive at the hospital and nobody could find her, they realized she had disappeared. All of her medication, clothing, cigarettes, and her purse were found in her apartment. A large comforter was, however, missing from her bed. She has never been heard from again.William "David" West, Bradley's boyfriend, has long been considered a person of interest in her disappearance. A photo of West is posted below this case summary. Bradley's mother stated that when she went to her daughter's apartment to look for her, West cursed at her and wouldn't let her inside. Following her disappearance, he was jailed for drug trafficking. In 2012, he was charged with the murder of Joseph Leroy Gaskill.
Bradley was having financial problems because of her medical bills at the time of her disappearance; her home and furniture had been repossessed a few months before. She had applied for disability payments, but they were not granted until after she disappeared. Bradley's family does not believe she would have left of her own accord, especially without her medication. Her case remains unsolved.
