In this episode of the Overlook Podcast, Ress discusses the mysterious disappearance of Joniah Walker, a young African American girl from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who went missing on June 23, 2022. Joniah's family struggled to get a serious response from the police, who initially listed her as a runaway. Ress highlights the challenges faced by missing children of color and the systemic issues related to their recovery. The podcast also delves into the broader context of missing persons, the potential role of online predators, and the importance of media and community involvement in locating missing children. It's been two years and yet we are still asking, where is Joniah ?
