Lead #3Why would a ten-year-old leave a note rather than simply ask permission? What was her relationship with her caregiver?
On July 6, 2001, ten-year-old Tionda Z. Bradley and her three-year-old sister Diamond Yvette Bradley disappeared from Chicago after leaving a note saying they were going to the store and school playground; an extensive search of the area yielded no results. Tionda was a shy child with distinctive features including a burn scar on her left forearm and was last seen wearing green ponytail holders. Despite a $10,000 reward and FBI involvement, the circumstances of their disappearance and current whereabouts remain unknown, and anyone with information is urged to contact authorities.
