Detailed Case Breakdown

Consuella LeShaun Cash Disappearance: 7-Year-Old Missing from Los Angeles Since 1975

Seven-year-old Consuella LeShaun Cash disappeared from Los Angeles, California, on January 3, 1975. More than five decades later, her whereabouts remain unknown, and remarkably little information about the circumstances leading to her disappearance has ever been made public.

California authorities continue to list Consuella as a missing person. The California Department of Justice states that she may have been a victim of homicide, while other missing-person resources classify her disappearance as endangered or suspicious. No homicide has been confirmed publicly, no remains have been identified as Consuella, and no publicly named suspect has been connected to the case.

Very Brief Case Summary

Last seen: January 3, 1975
Location: Los Angeles, California
Age: 7 years old
Status: Missing under suspicious circumstances; authorities have stated she may have been a homicide victim.

Main circumstances:

• Consuella disappeared from Los Angeles when she was seven.
• Authorities have not publicly disclosed the specific address or neighborhood where she was last seen.
• Public sources do not identify who last saw her or who was caring for her at the time.
• No publicly identified suspect, vehicle, abduction scenario, or known sequence of events has been released.
• She has never been found, and the case remains listed with law enforcement and missing-person databases.

Who Was Consuella Cash?

According to the California Department of Justice, Consuella was born on April 7, 1967. She was a Black girl with black hair and brown eyes. She was approximately 3 feet 9 inches tall and weighed about 44 pounds when she disappeared.

Consuella had pierced ears and a distinctive small circular birthmark on the left side of her cheek. California’s missing-person listing states that dental X-rays were not available.

Some secondary sources have published conflicting information about her height, including a measurement of 2 feet 11 inches. The California Department of Justice and The Charley Project currently give her height as 3 feet 9 inches, making that the stronger publicly available figure.

The Disappearance of Consuella Cash

Consuella was last seen somewhere in Los Angeles on January 3, 1975.

Beyond that basic statement, the public record becomes unusually quiet.

There is no publicly released account describing what Consuella was doing immediately before she disappeared. Authorities have not publicly identified the precise location where she was last seen, whether she disappeared from a residence or another location, what she was wearing, whether she was believed to have wandered away, or whether investigators suspected that she was taken by someone.

Public sources also do not identify the person who reported Consuella missing or the individual who last saw her.

Those missing pieces are especially significant because the California Department of Justice has specifically stated that Consuella may have been a victim of homicide. The Charley Project similarly describes her disappearance as occurring under suspicious circumstances and classifies her as an endangered missing person.

Why Investigators Suspect Foul Play

Authorities have never publicly explained exactly what led them to consider the possibility that Consuella was killed.

There is no publicly released description of evidence of violence, a crime scene, witness testimony, a confession, or a suspect. Likewise, publicly available agency information does not establish that Consuella’s disappearance was a stranger abduction, a family-related disappearance, an accident, or another type of event.

Because of that absence of information, theories circulated online should not be confused with established evidence.

What can be stated reliably is much narrower: Consuella disappeared at age seven, she has never been heard from again, the circumstances are considered suspicious, and California authorities have publicly acknowledged the possibility of homicide.

Age-Progression Efforts

An age-progressed image of Consuella was later created with assistance from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.

The California Department of Justice currently displays an age progression depicting how Consuella might have looked at approximately 47 years old. The Charley Project identifies an earlier age progression depicting her at approximately age 44 around 2011.

The Doe Network’s archives show that Consuella’s case was added to that organization’s database in December 2011 and that an age progression was subsequently added in 2012. Her Doe Network reference is 3132DFCA.

NamUs and Other Case Records

Consuella has also been associated with NamUs Missing Person case MP15293.

The number appears in historical NamUs links preserved in missing-person discussions and is also directly associated with Consuella in references to the NamUs case. Her Doe Network identifier is 3132DFCA, and the Los Angeles Police Department case number published by the California Department of Justice is 110323396.

The continued presence of Consuella’s information in current California and missing-person databases indicates that her disappearance has not been publicly resolved.

Latest Public Investigation Information

As of September 2026, there is no publicly announced arrest, identification, recovery, or resolution in Consuella’s disappearance.

The current California Department of Justice missing-person database continues to list Consuella and identifies the Los Angeles Police Department as the reporting agency. The official listing provides LAPD case number 110323396 and the telephone number (213) 486-8260.

A potentially useful update appeared in a Websleuths discussion in May 2024. A forum member said they contacted LAPD and received a response stating that Consuella’s case was being investigated by the department’s Juvenile Division, with (213) 486-0580 provided as the division’s telephone number. This is a first-person community report of correspondence with LAPD rather than a published LAPD case update, so it should be treated as useful but independently unconfirmed information.

A March 2026 article from Our Black Girls again highlighted the disappearance and reported that the circumstances surrounding Consuella’s disappearance still had not been publicly disclosed. The article noted the same central problem that has followed the case for decades: the public knows that Consuella vanished and that authorities suspect something serious happened to her, but virtually nothing has been released describing how she vanished.

There is currently no reliable public announcement indicating that investigators have named a person of interest, developed a confirmed suspect, identified Consuella among unidentified remains, or determined what happened to her.

A Case With More Questions Than Answers

Consuella Cash’s disappearance stands out not because the public record contains an abundance of conflicting evidence, but because it contains so little information at all.

More than 50 years after a seven-year-old child disappeared from one of the largest cities in the United States, basic questions remain unanswered publicly: Where exactly was Consuella last seen? Who last saw her? When was she reported missing? What made investigators believe she might have been murdered? Were there witnesses? Was anyone investigated?

Those questions cannot responsibly be answered with speculation.

What remains certain is that Consuella LeShaun Cash disappeared from Los Angeles on January 3, 1975, and she has never been located. Her case remains publicly listed, and information that could explain what happened to her may still exist with someone who remembers the child, her family, her neighborhood, or the circumstances surrounding that day.

How to Submit Information

Anyone with information concerning the disappearance of Consuella LeShaun Cash should contact the Los Angeles Police Department and reference case number 110323396.

Even information that may have seemed insignificant in 1975 could help investigators establish Consuella’s movements, identify people who were with her, or reconstruct circumstances that have never been explained publicly.
