The Bibb County Sheriff’s Office is reaching out to the public for help in locating 56-year-old Gina Jo Ratliff, who has been missing for nearly a month. The disappearance has left her family and friends deeply concerned as they have not heard from her since late July.
The Disappearance: Gina Jo Ratliff was last in contact with her loved ones on July 28. Since then, there has been no communication from her, which is highly unusual according to her family.
