Deidra, may God bless you and the dedication in posting this information about LaTasha Norman and all the other missing black girls (plus one that wishes he was a girl). God will bless your efforts.
My pray to the family that they will find peace during this time of 1) their sorrow 2) Heaven's gain.
Lord Have mercy....
You are doing a great service to your community as whole and to the black community specifically.
Any avenue that can be used to help inform people, and possibly help provide justice in these cases should be applauded.
I will definitely promote your blog to my friends.
Deidre, I thank you for posting Latisha Norman case on your website. She's been missing for a couple of weeks. The media was focused more on the sensational case of a Kansas college student found dead after she went missing for weeks. The media put less value on Black life than White life.

My name is Tasha and I live in Magee. I am a Criminal Justice major and I chose Latasha as my midterm criminoligist paper. I want for everyone to know that Latasha as well as her family will be in my prayers. I am starting a prayer chain through my university also for her family. May the Lord protect her and keep her safe!!
