## Resource

She was supposed to be gone an hour, just meeting a friend in the apartment complex parking lot. More than 10 years later, Tyarra Williams' family is still waiting for her to walk through the door. When someone goes missing, the pain of not knowing, the what if's, and the I should have's never go away. The pain, grief and pursuit of hope are exhausting. In this Untold Stories: Black and Missing we catch up with the detective assigned to turn fresh eyes on the search for Tyarra Williams and we talk with Toni Jacobs, a mother who is living the pain of having a missing child. She speaks up to let other families know they are not alone.
