"I don't feel safe. Something's not right." These were the last words anyone received from Kylee Monteiro before she vanished without a trace on August 7, 2025. At just 18 years old and 11 weeks pregnant, Kylie had everything to live for - a high school diploma fresh in hand and a future full of possibilities.

The disappearance of this young woman from Rehoboth, Massachusetts has left a community searching for answers and a family desperate for her return. Described by loved ones as timid and not particularly street-savvy, Kylee’s sudden silence speaks volumes. Her sister Faith puts it plainly: if she's not calling or posting on social media, something is wrong. This isn't a teen who would simply walk away from her life, especially not while expecting a child.

We delve into the troubling timeline surrounding Kylee’s disappearance, including reports of an argument with her boyfriend shortly before she went missing. We examine the massive search effort that has mobilized in response - from police deploying canine units, helicopters and dive teams, to volunteers combing miles of terrain on foot. The small town of Rehoboth, about 50 miles south of Boston, now finds itself at the center of a mystery that has residents locking their doors and keeping closer watch on their loved ones.

Kylee stands six feet tall with light brown hair and blue-brown eyes. When last seen, she wore a red t-shirt with "Get over it" printed on the front, ripped blue jeans, and tan boots. If you have information that could help bring her home, please contact authorities immediately. Every missing person has a story, every family deserves answers, and your tip could be the missing piece that solves this case. Share Kylee’s story - her life and her unborn child's life may depend on it.

If you live in Massachusetts—or know someone who does—please share Kylee’s story. Police are asking anyone with information to contact Trooper Sabrina Hinchey at (508) 972-1041, or Detective Paul McGovern with the Rehoboth Police Department at (508) 252-3722, extension 1135.

Speaker 1:

Welcome to the Missing Pieces podcast, where we shine a light on the stories of people who vanish and the families and communities left searching for answers. Today, we're going to talk about the case of Kylie Monteiro, an 18-year-old from Rehoboth, massachusetts. Kylie is more than just another headline. She's a recent high school graduate, a daughter, a sister, a friend and, at just 11 weeks pregnant, she was preparing for a whole new chapter of life. But on August 7, 2025, kylie disappeared, and the circumstances leading up to her disappearance are chilling. Kylie had just graduated from Attleboro High School, two months earlier. Friends and family describe her as timid, the kind of person who wasn't street savvy, who didn't really know how to be on her own. She had big plans for her future, but her loved ones say it was unlikely she would just leave without telling anyone. Her sister, faith, said she's not the type to cut off contact. If she's not calling us, if she's not posting on social media, something's wrong. On the evening of August 6th, kylie was last heard from by voice. The next day, august 7th, she sent a final text message to a friend. The message was short, but it said everything. I don't feel safe. Something's not right. That was the last anyone heard from her Family. Members say Kylie had gotten into an argument with her boyfriend shortly before her disappearance. Police have not confirmed the details of that dispute, but it's central to the timeline.

Speaker 1:

Kylie was last seen on County Street in Rehoboth. She was wearing a red t-shirt with the words Get over it printed on the front, ripped blue jeans, tan boots, and she may have had a white bag carrying some of her belongings. She is about six feet tall, with light brown hair and blue-brown eyes. These details are crucial because they help investigators and the public know exactly what to look for. Since her disappearance, search efforts have been extensive. Local and state police have teamed up. They've deployed canine units, helicopters, drones, atvs and even dive teams in nearby waters and wooded areas. Neighbors have been urged to check home security footage. Volunteers have walked miles of terrain. Family and friends have put up flyers and flooded social media, but so far no trace of Kylie.

Speaker 1:

Rehoboth police are calling this an open, fluid incident. They're being careful not to call it a criminal investigation at this stage, though many in the community fear the worst. Kylie's disappearance has devastated her family. Her sisters, faith and Kitty, have been outspoken in pleading for her safe return. Kitty said we just want her to come home. We're not going to stop trying to find her. Kylie's pregnancy only makes this case more urgent. Not only is an 18-year-old girl missing, but so is the child she was carrying.

Speaker 1:

In Rehoboth, a small town about 50 miles south of Boston, the story has shaken the community. People are locking doors, keeping closer tabs on their teens and following every update in the news. Some describe it as a nightmare that feels too close to home. Others say they're volunteering in searches because they imagine what it would feel like if it were their daughter or sister missing. Right now there are no arrests, no confirmed suspects and no evidence has been publicly shared that explains what happened to Kylie. After that final text, but police and family are still asking for the public's help. Even the smallest clue footage from a doorbell camera, a car seen at the wrong time, a detail that didn't feel right could be the missing piece.

Speaker 1:

Unfortunately, kylie's case is not isolated. Across the United States, thousands of people go missing every year, many of them young women, some pregnant, some vulnerable, and all deeply loved by their families. These cases remind us how fragile safety can feel and how important it is to stay aware, connected and ready to speak up if we notice something unusual. If you live in Massachusetts or know someone who does, please share Kylie's story. Police are asking anyone with information to contact Trooper Sabrina Hinchey at 508-972-1041 or Detective Paul McGovern with the Rehoboth Police Department at 508-252-3722, extension 1135. Kylie Montero is 18 years old, about 6 feet tall, with light brown hair and blue-brown eyes. She was last seen in Rehoboth on August 7th. If you saw something, if you heard something or if you know something, say something. Every missing person has a story, every family deserves answers and every voice matters.
