Horror as missing DoorDash driver is found by family DISMEMBERED in trunk of a car…as boy, 18, faces murder charges
A missing Georgia delivery driver was found by her own family members dismembered in a plastic tub and stuffed into trash bags earlier this week.
Shanteria Mosley, 26, who police said worked as a DoorDash driver, left her Atlanta home on Wednesday morning and never returned. She was not logged on or accepting orders the day she went missing, according to police.
Concerned for her safety, Mosley’s family tracked her phone at the Park Valley Apartments complex in Smyrna.
Her family looked for her in the surrounding woods and grassy area until they located her car, at which point they called the police, her aunt Michelle Weaver told 11 Alive News.
Weaver claimed that responding officers didn’t stay long, and left after only knocking ‘on three guys’ doors.’
Unsatisfied, the family kept looking for Mosley, 11 Alive reported. When they got back to Mosley’s car, they saw a man watching them from an apartment window in the complex.
The family knocked on his door, but the man said he had not seen anyone get out of Mosley’s car.
Weaver later saw the same man, identified as 18-year-old Kingston Bradley, carrying what appeared to be a laundry bag containing a plastic tub. Weaver claimed Bradley then dropped the bag and ran away.

It remains unclear whether and how Mosley and Bradley knew each other and why Mosley went to the address in Smyrna
‘All we see is the boy,’ Weaver said, according to 11Alive.
‘Throwing a bag, like something with a cloth. It’s like a bag kind of cloth, like maybe a laundry bag, and it had like a container in it. He kind of threw it and he ran.’
Mosley’s family later found the dismembered torso of the 26-year-old inside the container.
Bradley was arrested after police found blood stains and a large, bloody saw inside his apartment.
Investigators also found a mop bucket, a ‘mop in addition to a carpet cleaner,’ and reported smelled bleach in the home.
On Friday, police said they executed a search warrant on a vehicle and found garbage bags in the trunk.
‘One garbage bag was pulled tightly showing the outline of a body part.
‘Based on the information we have at this time, we do believe the victim to be Shanteria Mosley known as ‘KT’ by her friends and family.’
Lieutenant Meredith Holt of the Smyrna Police Department said: ‘This is a particularly gruesome crime. I can’t imagine what the family is going through.
‘I know that they are looking for answers and grieving at the same time. We’re continuing to work this case.’
Bradley was charged with concealing the death of another and murder and is being held without bond.
The 18-year-old has a history of violence, according to 11 Alive News.
In a case dating back to December 2024, Bradley was charged with two counts of terroristic threats, battery, simple battery and criminal trespass-damage to property following an alleged fight with his father.
Warrants and an indictment in that case allege Bradley hit his father with an Xbox controller, broke down his bedroom door and smashed a window when he pushed ‘a 15-year-old male juvenile into the window.’
The terroristic threats charge arose from Bradley allegedly ‘suggesting the death’ of his father, according to the indictment.
The case was indicted in February. Bradley, who was treated as a juvenile defendant, was released from jail on a $3,500 bond.
His bond conditions included no alcohol or drug consumption, no firearms and no further violent contact with either his father or the juvenile who was pushed into the window.
Another court filing stated that Bradley was pursuing admission for inpatient mental health treatment.
Bradley pleaded not guilty at an April arraignment. He is scheduled for a calendar call on October 6.

Bradley’s father, Ken Williams, addressed the allegations against his son.
First and foremost I’m sending my deepest condolences to the family of the young lady and her family,’ Williams wrote in a Facebook post.
‘Kingston has been dealing with mental illness for the past 6 years. Everyone who knows me knows that I work 10-12 hours daily. If I’m not at my regular job I’m somewhere doing a side job.’
‘Like you I have many questions as to the specifics of what happened, when and where. What I can say for certain is that I had no involvement with this incident nor had any knowledge of the incident,’ Williams said, claiming that he did not know the victim or her family prior to the killing.
Williams also added that he is cooperating with detectives and ‘not on the run.’
Authorities are still investigating whether or not Bradley and Mosley knew each other.
When asked how she wants her niece to be remembered, Weaver said: ‘With her smiles, laughter, and just full of joy, and talking crap to everybody, and just being happy, cheering everybody day up.’
