Who Is RJ Jett? Rising Star Breaks the Internet With Record-Shattering Performance

Clayton County, Ga. – A county-wide search is underway for 6-year-old Ramon “RJ” Jett, a non-verbal child who vanished late Sunday morning from the 8000 block of Webb Road in Riverdale. Police, K-9 teams, drones, dive units and volunteers have been canvassing residential yards, sheds, wooded creek beds and drainage culverts since roughly noon after Jett was reported missing between 11:30 a.m. and 12 p.m. OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION • Height: 3 ft 5 inches • Weight: ~40 lbs • Eyes/Hair: Brown eyes, black hair • Clothing when last seen: light-green shirt, camouflage shorts, white socks WHY THE SEARCH IS URGENT Investigators say RJ is non-verbal and lives with a mental-health condition that makes him especially vulnerable to injury or exploitation. Daytime temperatures near 90 °F combined with dense woodland and retention ponds behind several Webb Road subdivisions have heightened fears for the boy’s safety. HOW THE COMMUNITY IS HELPING Neighbors have opened home security camera feeds to detectives, and local churches organized evening grid walks along Webb Road, Pointe South Parkway and Ga. 85. Businesses have shared RJ’s flyer across storefront windows, gas-pump video boards and social media hashtags #FindRJJett and #ClaytonCounty. The Clayton County Police Department (CCPD) also pushed real-time updates through its new text alert system, urging residents to “look anywhere a small child might hide.” WHAT TO DO IF YOU SEE RJ 1. Call 911 immediately; do not wait to re-check or search further. 2. Provide the child’s exact location and direction of travel. 3. If safe, stay nearby until first responders arrive. 4. Do not post unverified sightings online—send photos or video directly to detectives via the CCPD tip portal. SAFETY REMINDERS FOR PARENTS • Secure backyard gates and pool fencing; curious children often slip through cracked latches. • Teach kids to memorize a trusted adult’s phone number or wear a medical ID bracelet. • Install door and window chimes to alert caregivers when little ones wander. INVESTIGATION STATUS As of Monday morning, police say every lead received overnight has been tracked but RJ remains missing. Dive units are re-checking retention ponds north of Webb Road while aerial drones map new search grids behind Pointe South Elementary. The FBI’s Child Abduction Rapid Deployment (CARD) team has been notified in case specialized resources are needed. Anyone with information—no matter how minor it may seem—is urged to contact the Clayton County Police Department at 770-477-3747 or dial 911.
