When several members of the Todt family were found dead in their home, the most obvious suspect, Anthony Todt, tried to blame it on his wife’s depression. Or could it have been the family’s sudden change of religion? We’ll never know because he couldn’t make up his mind on which story he wanted to tell.

Sadly, missing persons cases are all too common. To make matters worse, cases involving minorities are significantly less reported on and frequently suffer a low resolution rate. We’ve presented cases on missing minorities before, but thought it was important to do that again this year.

Ronda: When 24 year old Geologist, Daniel Robinson, went missing his father David wasted zero time searching for him. His dedication to finding his son is unmatched and entirely necessary given the lack of media interest and law enforcement involvement.
Daniel is described as being approximately 5’8”, 155lbs, black hair and brown eyes. He is also missing his right hand and has light to medium brown skin. If you have any information contact as to Daniel’s whereabouts, contact Buckeye Police Department at 623-349-6411. You can also find information at pleasehelpfinddaniel.com

Pam:   2 year old Arianna Fitts went missing in San Francisco in June of 2016 after her mother had been found dead in a local park. Arianna would now be 9 years old and is suspected to be in the California-Nevada area. She has black hair and brown eyes. If you have any information on Arianna's disappearance, please contact San Francisco Police Department’s 24-hourtip line at 1-415-575-4444, or text a tip to TIP411 and begin the message with SFPD.

It's a freestyle... with a slight theme. We know... no themes on freestyle day. But, you know what? We do what we wanna do! ...please enjoy.

Pam: It was the year 1998 and James Byrd Jr was walking home from a party late one night when he was offered a ride home from some "good ole boys". And well, things went horribly wrong. Sadly, these are injustices that many minorities fear could happen to them on a daily basis and while we may have come a long way in the 25 years since this tragic hate crime was committed- we, unfortunately, still have a long way to go as a society.

Ronda: Teen dating violence has an astonishingly high occurrence rate. Unfortunately, Kaity Sudberry fell victim to her very first boyfriend’s obsession just when she thought she was free of him.

You know what they say, the saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies...

Ronda: The Moore family were ecstatic to move into a custom built home. As a bonus, there was a couple next door that proved to be great friends... until an incident caused the entire neighborhood dynamic to change. Things quickly turned sour between the Moores and their neighbor Roland Younce.
