The way that I came to this website was thru Stepha Henry’s story. I happened to find an old People’s magazine behind the couch that had been lost there for some time. I had lost it the same day that I bought it and since I had never read it I sat down and scanned thru it. The first article that interested me was her story(Stepha’s). After reading the story it did not matter to me that she is black or white or Asian but only that she is a beautiful young woman with her whole life ahead of her and she deserves to get to live it. For the rest of the night I thought about her off and on so when I got to work tonight and had access to a computer I did a search for her story hoping to find out that she was found and was home safe and sound with her family but when I read all of your entries I was saddened by 2 things. One that Stepha is still missing and her family is still in turmoil and not probably not recieving any financial support while looking for thier daughter. The second thing that bothers me is that almost every entry here feels that because she is a black woman that her case has been put on the back burner with the media. I don’t know if this is true or not. I wouldn’t think so. I am a 45 yr. old caucasian female and I hope that it wouldn’t make any difference to anyone. Either way…I personally am very sorry that you all do feel this way. And I am hoping and praying that somehow there could be a miraculous end to this story and Stepha Henry could come home safe and sound.

I heard of this case when it first broke and as the weeks pasted I forgot. I’m glad to see this again because it allows me to keep my eyes open. You never know who you may run into on the streets. Keep watching and keep praying

Hey! First time visiting your site! I love it! This story was on Nancy Grace on Sunday and it was the first I’d heard of it. As a matter of fact, I was so shocked they were doing a story on a missing black woman, I made sure to stick around to hear what Crazy Nancy had to say. She was FIRED UP!!! This is good news, because nobody can beat a dead horse like Nancy and when she gets upset about an injustice, she makes sure Noooooobody forgets.

Anyway, thanks for sharing!

This makes me very sad because she could be me, I sent up a prayer for her yesterday and I’m going to keep on praying that she is found alive and well.
I pray and hope with every bone in my body this has a happy ending.

Thanks for giving this case some attention. Our missing just don’t seem important to the media. Hmmmmmm, I wonder why???

On a related note, I can tell you that Natalie Hollowell (sp?) is thought to have died from a coke over dose. I know this because they are still talking about her ass. Guess what, I do not give a…. Let me stop here.

I was on vacation when they started airing this.. I kept thinking of my daughter (Stephanie) and how this young woman reminded me so much of her.. I hope and pray that this story is kept alive until she is found..

Thanks for keeping this story going Bella. It just came to me, we (meaning black women) need our own “Amber Alert.” I dunno, maybe something like we dedicated part of our side panel to a black woman who is missing. If a lot of us did it, I wonder if that would help make a difference. Just an idea.
