- 3:52Speaker 1: headed to North Carolina. And North Carolina is known as
- 3:57Speaker 1: the tar Heell State, which I found interesting, and it
- 4:02Speaker 1: is a nickname that dates back to the state's early
- 4:05Speaker 1: industries producing tar pitch and turpentine from its vast pine forest.
- 4:12Speaker 1: I didn't know tar pitch in turpetine came from pine trees,
- 4:17Speaker 1: and I grew up in Houston, Texas with lots of
- 4:20Speaker 1: pine tree You would have thought I would have known that,
- 4:23Speaker 1: but you from the rugged peaks of the Appalachian Mountains
- 4:27Speaker 1: to the sandy beaches of the Outer Banks, guys, North
- 4:30Speaker 1: Carolina is a state rich in history, Southern culture, natural beauty.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Okay. And also, guys, I didn't know this.
- 4:39Speaker 1: It is home to the first powered flight by the
- 4:43Speaker 1: Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk. And when I mentioned that
- 4:46Speaker 1: to Double eight, she goes, well, yeah, everybody knows that.
- 4:50Speaker 1: We apparently not me.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Okay.
- 4:53Speaker 1: The North Carolina Center for Missing Person receives more than
- 4:57Speaker 1: ten thousand missing person reports each year. Okay now, and
- 5:05Speaker 1: are you ready for this? In twenty twenty four, they
- 5:07Speaker 1: were recorded eight seven hundred and fifty eight reports of missing
- 5:12Speaker 1: children and the rest of the ten thousand makes up adults.
- 5:17Speaker 2: That's a lot of kids. Okay, And as.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Of twenty twenty six, the state still handles thousands of
- 5:24Speaker 1: missing person investigations. Guys, A lot of these are long
- 5:30Speaker 1: term listed and active. So what we need to remember
- 5:33Speaker 1: there are a lot of families waiting, Okay. So the
- 5:38Speaker 1: one thing we can do is share these stories. Okay,
- 5:43Speaker 1: share the missing person posters.
- 5:45Speaker 2: Because.
- 5:47Speaker 1: That's a lot of missing people. That's a lot of
- 5:50Speaker 1: families going to bed every night with a big hole
- 5:54Speaker 1: in their heart.
- 5:54Speaker 2: Okay, that's just awful. Now.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Marie Carmichael was a young North Carolina mother of five
- 6:04Speaker 1: who vanished in the early morning hours of January fourteenth,
- 6:08Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, after making a frantic nine to one
- 6:12Speaker 1: call from a Greensboro gas station. Okay, I mean here
- 6:17Speaker 1: we are. More than two years later, Marissa remains missing.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Her children continued to wait for answers, and Guys, her
- 6:23Speaker 1: family is refusing to stop searching for their daughter, their sister,
- 6:27Speaker 1: and the mother.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Okay.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Marissa was twenty five years old when she disappeared. She
- 6:35Speaker 1: lived in high Point, North Carolina, with her mother, Sarah Carmichael,
- 6:39Speaker 1: her sister Emma, and her five children.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Now.
- 6:43Speaker 1: According to the family, Marissa was devoted to her children okay,
- 6:48Speaker 1: and maintained regular contact with those closest to her. So
- 6:53Speaker 1: her sudden disappearance without any communication is out of character. Okay, guys,
- 7:00Speaker 1: it's a huge red flag.
- 7:01Speaker 2: Okay.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Now. The last time Marissa's family saw her was on
- 7:06Speaker 1: the evening of January thirteenth, twenty twenty four, around eight
- 7:10Speaker 1: thirty pm. Her mother, Sarah, briefly woke up while Marissa
- 7:14Speaker 1: was preparing to leave the house. Now, Marissa told her
- 7:18Speaker 1: mother she planned to get a drink before work, but
- 7:21Speaker 1: unknown to her mother at the time, Marissa had had
- 7:25Speaker 1: already called off of her shift at the waffle house,
- 7:28Speaker 1: and she instead playing to spend the evening with a
- 7:31Speaker 1: friend at a nightclub in Greensboro. I mean, sometimes moms
- 7:35Speaker 1: need to get away, Okay. Marissa did share her plans
- 7:39Speaker 1: with her sister, but asked her not to tell their
- 7:41Speaker 1: mother because she didn't want her to worry.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Okay, she kept.
- 7:44Speaker 1: People somebody knew where she was, Okay. Around nine PM,
- 7:49Speaker 1: Marissa left the family home, and according to a family,
- 7:53Speaker 1: her cousin drove Marissa and a friend to one seventeen
- 7:57Speaker 1: so football in lounge in Greensboro, which was about thirty
- 8:01Speaker 1: minutes away. Family members later received Marissa's Facebook message and
- 8:07Speaker 1: believe she left the club around two am with a
- 8:10Speaker 1: male acquaintance who had met her there that night, and
- 8:14Speaker 1: then they believed the pair subsequently traveled to an airbnb
- 8:18Speaker 1: that was less than two miles from the nightclub. Okay,
- 8:22Speaker 1: But just over an hour later, around three point thirty
- 8:26Speaker 1: three forty am on the fourteenth, Marissa placed that distressed call,
- 8:31Speaker 1: this time to nine one one from the Exon gas
- 8:34Speaker 1: station in Greensborough. Now. During the call, Marissa told the
- 8:39Speaker 1: dispatcher she had been robbed and did not know where
- 8:43Speaker 1: she was okay. She reported that someone she had been
- 8:47Speaker 1: writing with instructed her to enter the store and grab
- 8:50Speaker 1: some stuff. While she was inside, that person allegedly drove away,
- 8:56Speaker 1: leaving her strand dead. Okay, guys, she told the dishpatcher
- 9:01Speaker 1: end quote. I just got all my stuff thrown out
- 9:04Speaker 1: of the car. He took off with my phone. I
- 9:07Speaker 1: have no clue where I'm at, but she did not
- 9:12Speaker 1: identify the individual she claimed had robbed her. Now, according
- 9:17Speaker 1: to information release by the Greensboro Police Department, officers were
- 9:22Speaker 1: dispatched to check on Marissa's welfare. Shortly after the call,
- 9:26Speaker 1: their records to indicate they got their round four nineteen,
- 9:30Speaker 1: guys three forty to four nineteen. I don't call that shortly, but.
- 9:33Speaker 2: That's just me. But oh yeah, that's a bit.
- 9:41Speaker 1: But anyway, by the time law enforcement did reach the
- 9:44Speaker 1: gas station, Marissa was gone. Now, a store clerk told
- 9:48Speaker 1: officers that Marissa had accepted a ride from another customer
- 9:52Speaker 1: and left the area before the police arrived. Okay, now,
- 9:58Speaker 1: the police did obtain surveillance footage, and the footage showed
- 10:03Speaker 1: Marissa getting into a vehicle and leading the Exxon Police
- 10:07Speaker 1: have identified and interviewed the driver of that vehicle, but
- 10:11Speaker 1: authorities have publicly stated that the individual is considered a
- 10:16Speaker 1: witness in the case last person to see them, a
- 10:24Speaker 1: person who's missing, and they're just a witness. And to me,
- 10:27Speaker 1: I find that weird because normally law enforcement doesn't come
- 10:31Speaker 1: out and say who is a suspect and.
- 10:35Speaker 2: Who's just a witness?
- 10:37Speaker 1: So yeah, So, according to her family, like I said,
- 10:42Speaker 1: Marissa would never voluntarily disappear, especially without contacting her children. Okay,
- 10:48Speaker 1: she did not go willingly, Guys, In the weeks following
- 10:53Speaker 1: her disappearance, Greensboro Plice launched an extensive investigation. They did
- 10:59Speaker 1: conduct interviews, collects, surveillance, They even carried out some searches.
- 11:04Speaker 1: Nothing has been found. Now something else interesting. Authorities have
- 11:11Speaker 1: not publicly identified a suspect. They've just said somebody's a witness,
- 11:15Speaker 1: and they have not disclosed whether foul play is suspected.
- 11:19Speaker 1: Because guys, I'm going to be honest and say, I'm
- 11:22Speaker 1: going to say foul plays is suspected. Did they take
- 11:27Speaker 1: her back to that Airbnb or did something nefarious again happen?
- 11:33Speaker 1: Two things, I mean, two different options.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Okay.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Now, Marissa's family has conducted extensive searches of their own. Okay,
- 11:49Speaker 1: bless me. They have done searches on their own. Okay.
- 11:55Speaker 1: They have searched creeks, lakes, rivers, abandoned homes, motels, wooded areas,
- 12:02Speaker 1: and vacant buildings across High Point, Greensboro, Archdew and surrounding communities.
- 12:09Speaker 1: They have distributed flyers, knocked on doors, seeking surveillance footage
- 12:13Speaker 1: from everywhere.
- 12:15Speaker 2: Okay.
- 12:16Speaker 1: The family also highlighted information posted on the Bring Marissa
- 12:21Speaker 1: Home Facebook page which state this Marissa was reportedly seen
- 12:27Speaker 1: leaving Club one seventeen with a Facebook acquaintance known as
- 12:31Speaker 1: Jersey money Bag. The page feather alleges that the last
- 12:36Speaker 1: missus message received from Marissa came from another Facebook friend's account,
- 12:42Speaker 1: and that she was reportedly seen on Girls Street with
- 12:46Speaker 1: both individuals before her disappearance. They don't say if that's
- 12:52Speaker 1: before or after the surveillance.
- 12:55Speaker 2: At the gas station. Now these have.
- 13:00Speaker 1: Circulated publicly through family advocacy efforts, but investigators have not
- 13:07Speaker 1: confirmed any of these details. I would recommend you go.
- 13:10Speaker 1: If you're on Facebook, follow that page. I'm following it
- 13:13Speaker 1: so I can stay up to date.
- 13:16Speaker 2: But guys, as.
- 13:17Speaker 1: Time continues to pass, the emotional toll on Marissa's loved
- 13:21Speaker 1: one keeps getting deeper. She has five children who range
- 13:25Speaker 1: in the age from five to ten years old when
- 13:28Speaker 1: she disappeared Okay. They are struggling to understand why their
- 13:33Speaker 1: mother never came back okay. Sarah has said that explaining
- 13:39Speaker 1: the situation to her grandchildren has been one of the
- 13:43Speaker 1: most painful aspects of this journey. The younger children have
- 13:49Speaker 1: been told that their mother is lost and that their
- 13:51Speaker 1: family is still searching for her. The older children have
- 13:56Speaker 1: encountered online speculation and discussions around the case, creating additional
- 14:03Speaker 1: heartbreak and confusion. Marisa's sister, Emmy, has also faced milestones
- 14:09Speaker 1: without her. Since Marisa disappeared, Emma welcomed her first child,
- 14:14Speaker 1: a daughter, and guys, she has spoken publicly about the
- 14:18Speaker 1: pain of experiencing pregnancy, childbirth, and becoming a mother without
- 14:25Speaker 1: her sister by her side. So, guys, she is still active.
- 14:32Speaker 1: She is described as a white female with black hair
- 14:35Speaker 1: and brown eyes. She stands approximately five foot four inches
- 14:39Speaker 1: tall and weighs around two hundred and sixty pounds. She
- 14:42Speaker 1: has a heart tattoo on her face and a butterfly
- 14:45Speaker 1: tattoo near her eyes. Marisa would be twenty six years
- 14:49Speaker 1: old today.
- 14:51Speaker 2: And guys, you need.
- 14:52Speaker 1: To remember she's more than a missing person. She's a mother,
- 14:56Speaker 1: she's a daughter, she's a sister, and she has a
- 14:59Speaker 1: family loves hers. I am begging you. If you have
- 15:03Speaker 1: any information about the disappearance or whereabouts of Marissa Carmichael,
- 15:08Speaker 1: please contact the Greensboro Police Department at three three six
- 15:13Speaker 1: three seven three two two to two.

- 15:24Speaker 1: seven three one thousand, or you can always submit a
- 15:29Speaker 1: tip on the FBI tipline.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Guys, she they have her listed as white.
- 15:39Speaker 1: I found it listed as both, but I saw the
- 15:42Speaker 1: most common as white. So I typically with sources, if
- 15:46Speaker 1: you see it four times and you only see it
- 15:48Speaker 1: two of the other places, you do it. So that

- 15:59Speaker 1: or you know of a miss person whose story deserves

- 16:24Speaker 1: media platforms.
- 16:25Speaker 2: Okay, Now, our.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Next case is justice. Heartbreaking. Okay, just as heartbreaking. Tarrow
- 16:35Speaker 1: Williams was us nineteen years old when she vanished from Greensboro,
- 16:40Speaker 1: North Carolina, on January seventh, twenty sixteen. She had spent
- 16:45Speaker 1: the day preparing for the future. She had work to build, okay,
- 16:49Speaker 1: enrolling in college classes, making plans with her mother to
- 16:53Speaker 1: shop for textbook and a laptop the very next day,
- 16:58Speaker 1: but instead of beginning a new time chapter in her life,
- 17:01Speaker 1: Tiara disappeared that night, leaving behind her family, her dreams,
- 17:07Speaker 1: and a mystery that still remains ten years later. Now.
- 17:13Speaker 1: Friends and family described Tiara as a caring and social
- 17:17Speaker 1: young woman who always looked after the people she loved.
- 17:21Speaker 1: During high school, she maintained an act of social life,
- 17:24Speaker 1: both in person and online, and as she grew older,
- 17:28Speaker 1: she sought more independence, and she moved into her grandmother's
- 17:32Speaker 1: apartment shortly before graduating high school. Now, according to the family,
- 17:38Speaker 1: Tiara didn't want her grandmother living alone and she wanted
- 17:42Speaker 1: to help.
- 17:42Speaker 2: Care for her.
- 17:44Speaker 1: I did see a video clip where her grandmother said, oh,
- 17:46Speaker 1: she was like my food better, and I cracked up
- 17:51Speaker 1: because that is something my mama would have said. But
- 17:54Speaker 1: to me, this reflected the kind of person Tierra was,
- 17:57Speaker 1: someone who put family first. So, like I said, she
- 18:02Speaker 1: was excited about the next phase of her life. Okay,
- 18:05Speaker 1: she was planning to pursue a degree in early childhood education.
- 18:09Speaker 2: Because she wanted to work with children.
- 18:13Speaker 1: Now, on the day she disappeared, she had completed everything
- 18:16Speaker 1: she needed to to begin classes. The upcoming semester and
- 18:20Speaker 1: she was excited. She stopped by her mom's house around
- 18:23Speaker 1: six pm to share the news. She talks about enrolling
- 18:27Speaker 1: in classes, her goals for the future, her plans for
- 18:30Speaker 1: them to go shopping, all of that stuff, and I
- 18:32Speaker 1: can just picture her going and mom in this so
- 18:37Speaker 1: oh my god, just that just breaks my heart. Okay,
- 18:41Speaker 1: breaks my heart.
- 18:44Speaker 2: Now.
- 18:44Speaker 1: Also visiting that evening was Aaron Taylor, who was a
- 18:47Speaker 1: neighbor that Tiara had recently begun dating, so it was
- 18:50Speaker 1: new and nothing about the visit raised any concerns.
- 18:54Speaker 2: Okay.
- 18:56Speaker 1: Now, around eight pm, Tiara her younger brother in air
- 19:00Speaker 1: and returned to her grandmother's apartment where she lived at
- 19:03Speaker 1: the Stony Brook Apartments. Now, after dinner and some television,
- 19:08Speaker 1: Tara annow she was going to visit a friend named
- 19:10Speaker 1: Travis who lived within the apartment complex, and she told
- 19:15Speaker 1: her family she would be back within an hour, and
- 19:18Speaker 1: no one thought anything was unusual about this trip, okay.
- 19:21Speaker 1: She she was a social person and had a lot
- 19:24Speaker 1: of friends, so around eight thirty she left the apartment complex.
- 19:31Speaker 1: Now she walked away with her boyfriend and younger brother
- 19:34Speaker 1: was forced separating from them to go visit that friend Travis. Guys,
- 19:39Speaker 1: that's the last confirmed, citing that the family had okay now,
- 19:45Speaker 1: family members later learned that Tara has visited a friend's
- 19:49Speaker 1: apartment and was reportedly heading back home when the GPS
- 19:54Speaker 1: signal from her cell phone suddenly stopped.
- 19:57Speaker 2: Okay.
- 19:58Speaker 1: They believe her phone was either turned off or the
- 20:01Speaker 1: battery died. But guys, she never made it back inside
- 20:05Speaker 1: her grandmother's apartment. She hasn't been heard from again.
- 20:10Speaker 2: Now. As that evening.
- 20:11Speaker 1: Turned into night, Aaron and Tira's brother spent time at
- 20:15Speaker 1: Aaron's apartment playing video games while waiting for her return.
- 20:19Speaker 1: When she failed to come home, Erin became concerned returned
- 20:24Speaker 1: to her grandmother's apartment to wait for her. Throughout the night,
- 20:28Speaker 1: He continued sending messages to her, being never got a response.
- 20:33Speaker 1: Early the next morning, Aaron woke up her grandmother to
- 20:36Speaker 1: ask whether she had heard from her.
- 20:40Speaker 2: When she said no.
- 20:43Speaker 1: They all begin to panic. Okay, her phone wascorn straight
- 20:46Speaker 1: to voice smel she wasn't reaching out. They were concerned
- 20:51Speaker 1: because she was known to keep her phone charged and
- 20:54Speaker 1: she remained in regular contact with family and friends. Now,
- 20:59Speaker 1: as the family members began to retrace her final movements,
- 21:04Speaker 1: they realized she had left almost everything behind that night.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Okay, the only thing she had with.
- 21:09Speaker 1: There was her cell phone, her purse, all her personal
- 21:12Speaker 1: belongings were still there, which makes sense if you're just
- 21:16Speaker 1: running out to see a friend right now. When Daniella
- 21:20Speaker 1: questioned Aarin about the previous night, he explained that Tiara
- 21:24Speaker 1: had left to visit someone named Travis. That name stood
- 21:28Speaker 1: out to her mom, Danielle, because she didn't know anyone
- 21:31Speaker 1: named Travis in her daughter's life. Okay, I also have
- 21:35Speaker 1: to say, she's graduated high school. You probably don't know
- 21:39Speaker 1: all of her friends.
- 21:40Speaker 2: Okay.
- 21:41Speaker 1: But she also found it unusual that Aaron didn't appear
- 21:45Speaker 1: upset about Tira spending time with another man, and he
- 21:49Speaker 1: said he trusted her and guys. I find that odd
- 21:54Speaker 1: because I would want my daughter to date a boy
- 21:58Speaker 1: who was secure and confident in their relationship, that she
- 22:02Speaker 1: can have male friends of no sexual interest. Okay, So
- 22:07Speaker 1: I found that weird because I have a lot of
- 22:09Speaker 1: guy friends. I mean, I have my Gaze, but then
- 22:12Speaker 1: I have a lot of my other, you know, guy friends. So,
- 22:15Speaker 1: now determined to find answers, Daniella got into her daughter's
- 22:19Speaker 1: Facebook account and she started going through everything.
- 22:22Speaker 2: She was like, I am going.
- 22:23Speaker 1: To play detective Yah, but despite extensive searching, she couldn't
- 22:28Speaker 1: find anyone named Travis.
- 22:30Speaker 2: Okay.
- 22:32Speaker 1: What she did find was ongoing communication between Tiara and
- 22:37Speaker 1: a former boyfriend, and her mom began to wonder whether
- 22:41Speaker 1: Tiara may have met with a former boyfriend that evening
- 22:45Speaker 1: and simply told her boyfriend and her brother and grandmother
- 22:49Speaker 1: that she was visiting someone named Travis. That night, Danielle
- 22:55Speaker 1: reported her daughter missing, and she was adamant to investigators
- 23:00Speaker 1: that Tiara would never simply walk away from her life Okay.
- 23:05Speaker 1: She was in a great place, and police quickly determined
- 23:09Speaker 1: there was no evidence she had planned to leave, voluntarily,
- 23:13Speaker 1: run away, or anything like that, so they looked into
- 23:16Speaker 1: the case. They did learn that her last cell phone
- 23:19Speaker 1: activity was at eight point thirty within the apartment complex
- 23:23Speaker 1: where she lived. Now. The information that her mom uncovered
- 23:28Speaker 1: on Facebook was shared with law enforcement, and according to
- 23:32Speaker 1: the family, the former boyfriend had usually been the one
- 23:36Speaker 1: initiating contact with Tiera Okay, and they viewed him as
- 23:41Speaker 1: someone they needed to know more about Okay, particularly because
- 23:45Speaker 1: he appeared to connect it to Tia During the days
- 23:49Speaker 1: leading up to her disappearance. I mean, you always look
- 23:53Speaker 1: at the first boyfriend, the ex boyfriend. I mean that's
- 23:57Speaker 1: kind of natural, right. Police did eventually interview the former boyfriend,
- 24:02Speaker 1: and according to reports, he initially denied having any recent
- 24:06Speaker 1: contact with Tiera.
- 24:09Speaker 2: And you don't lie to the police.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Young man, Okay, And when they confronted him with the
- 24:14Speaker 1: evidence showing otherwise, he then admitted, oh yeah, we have
- 24:19Speaker 1: been in communication, and then he acknowledged seeing her on
- 24:23Speaker 1: the night she disappeared. Red flags anyone. He told investigators
- 24:28Speaker 1: that he met Tiera within the apartment complex and that
- 24:31Speaker 1: the two sat in his vehicle talking for about twenty minutes,
- 24:36Speaker 1: and according to him, he said, Tiera exited the vehicle
- 24:40Speaker 1: and walked away towards her own apartment. So if that
- 24:44Speaker 1: is true, that would truly make him the last known
- 24:48Speaker 1: person to see Tiara before she famous. Now, they say
- 24:53Speaker 1: they investigated his vehicle, but they didn't find any evidence
- 24:57Speaker 1: that she was harmed inside.
- 24:58Speaker 2: Okay.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Over the years, her family has pursued every possible lead. Guy.
- 25:05Speaker 1: Her grandfather is amazing, Okay. He's a former bondsman, so
- 25:11Speaker 1: he has some experience locating people. The guys he has
- 25:14Speaker 1: followed tips across the multiple states, sometimes driving hundreds of
- 25:19Speaker 1: miles based on possible sightings. That is amazing, Grandpa. I
- 25:25Speaker 1: like it when lead took him four hundred miles away
- 25:29Speaker 1: to investigate a reported siding at a waffle house. But sadly,
- 25:34Speaker 1: like many of the other tips, the lead produced no answers.
- 25:38Speaker 1: The guys, he continued searching, ultimately covering thousands of miles
- 25:44Speaker 1: in hopes of finding his granddaughter. Now they do believe
- 25:49Speaker 1: law enforcement does believe her disappearance is suspicious okay, and
- 25:55Speaker 1: that she might have been the victim of foul play.
- 25:58Speaker 1: So Tara is discret a black female with brown hair
- 26:01Speaker 1: and brown eyes. She stands five feet five. She bought
- 26:06Speaker 1: approximately one hundred and twenty pounds you will be thining.
- 26:09Speaker 1: Her ears and left nostril are pierced, and she typically
- 26:12Speaker 1: wears a stud in her nose piercing. She has a
- 26:16Speaker 1: nickel sized burn scar on a right whist right wrist.
- 26:20Speaker 1: She was last seen wearing a pink shirt, a black
