Typhenie Johnson
Typhenie Kae Johnson was 25 years old when she disappeared on October 10, 2016, from the Euless/Fort Worth, Texas area. Nearly a decade later, her disappearance remains unsolved, although her former boyfriend, Christopher Revill, was convicted of aggravated kidnapping in connection with her case and sentenced to life in prison. Typhenie’s remains have never been found.
Typhenie was described by her family as a hardworking young woman with close family relationships and a promising future. On the evening of October 10, 2016, she was at the Post Oak East Apartments when she went outside to speak with her former boyfriend, Christopher Revill. Investigators believe that conversation was the last confirmed sighting of Typhenie.
According to investigators, Revill initially claimed that after their argument, Typhenie left the area in a vehicle with someone he did not know. However, family members and investigators questioned that explanation. Typhenie’s cell phone, keys, and a sock were found near the location where Revill’s vehicle had been parked. Witnesses also reported seeing Revill’s vehicle near the apartment building, with the trunk open.
During the investigation, police recovered additional evidence they believed connected Revill to Typhenie’s disappearance. Reports from the investigation and trial stated that items belonging to Typhenie, including clothing and other personal items, were found in areas connected to Revill. Prosecutors argued that the evidence showed Revill was responsible for Typhenie being taken against her will.
In August 2019, a Tarrant County jury found Christopher Revill guilty of aggravated kidnapping in Typhenie’s disappearance. He was sentenced to life in prison. Although prosecutors argued that Typhenie was killed, Revill was convicted specifically of kidnapping, and he has never revealed what happened to her or where her remains may be located.
Investigators have continued to search for answers. The case gained additional attention because Revill had previously been connected to another missing woman, Taalibah Fatin Bint Islam, who disappeared in 2006. Years later, authorities identified human remains as belonging to Islam, and her case remains under investigation. Investigators have examined possible connections between the cases.
Despite the conviction, Typhenie’s family continues to search for her. They have spent years keeping her name in the public eye, hoping that someone with information about her disappearance or the location of her remains will come forward.
Typhenie was last seen wearing a pink shirt with black and white pants. She was approximately 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighed about 135 pounds at the time of her disappearance.
Anyone with information regarding the disappearance of Typhenie Kae Johnson is urged to contact the Fort Worth Police Department or submit information through official missing persons channels.
