On July 6, 2001, ten-year-old Tionda Z. Bradley and her three-year-old sister Diamond 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 shy, athletic, and identifiable by a quarter-sized burn scar on her left forearm and green ponytail holders in her hair at the time of disappearance. The case remains unsolved with a $10,000 reward for information leading to the girls' whereabouts.
