The Disappearance of Zoe J. Ross

 

Zoe J. Ross has been missing since May 7th, 2019. The then-17-year-old was last seen in Morristown, New Jersey. On the day she vanished, Zoe went to school as usual. She reportedly left the building without telling any school staff members around 1:00 PM. Zoe never returned and has never been seen or heard from again.

Zoe's disappearance from the school was quickly noticed by the staff, as she was reported missing by 1:30 PM - just 30 minutes after she was last seen. Despite this quick action, police were not able to track Zoe down. Now, several years have passed since her disappearance, and Zoe has still not been located.

There are very few details available about Zoe's life around the time she went missing. It's known that she was living at a group home in Freehold at the time of her disappearance. It's also known that Zoe was adopted from Ukraine at some point during her childhood. She lived with adoptive parents prior to moving into the group home. Details about why or how Zoe ended up at the group home have not been publicly shared.

Although there has been very little news reporting on Zoe's disappearance, there has been some online chatter from her former classmates and friends. In spring 2025, a Reddit user made a post about Zoe's disappearance. The poster stated that they went to the same alternative high school as Zoe and was there on the day she vanished. The former classmate said they heard rumors about Zoe getting into a car after exiting the building, but this rumor has never been confirmed. 

Other online discussions note that Zoe's adoptive family has seemingly never appealed to the public or posted anything about Zoe's disappearance. Another Reddit user commented on the aforementioned post and stated that they, too, knew Zoe and had heard that she did not have a good relationship with her adoptive parents. Unfortunately, it appears that Zoe did not have a very big support system at the time she vanished.

Zoe still remains missing today. The Morristown Police Department has investigative agency over her case. If you have any information that could help solve the disappearance of Zoe Ross, please contact authorities at 973-538-2200.
