New details have emerged in the disappearance of Kayla Scott, revealing that her final phone call — made to her older brother just minutes before she vanished — lasted only thirty-six seconds.
Investigators confirmed that the call, placed at 12:19 a.m., ended abruptly after Kayla was heard whispering something indecipherable.
“He said her voice was low, shaky — like she was trying not to be heard,” a law-enforcement source told reporters. “Then there was a pause… and silence.”
The brother, whose name has not been released publicly, immediately attempted to call her back several times. Each call went straight to voicemail.
Forensic technicians have since retrieved partial data from cell towers near the area where her phone last pinged. The location — an industrial zone on the city’s edge — is now the focus of renewed searches.
“We don’t yet know what she said,” one investigator admitted. “But those last 36 seconds could tell us everything about what happened that night.”
Audio specialists are now working to enhance the recording captured by the carrier’s emergency backup system — a rare piece of digital evidence that could provide the first real clue in weeks.
Friends and family describe Kayla as “strong, private, and cautious,” making her final, fragmented call all the more chilling.
As authorities continue to analyze the audio, the family waits for answers — and for the moment when her whispered words are finally revealed.
