Summary

On July 22nd, 2001, 28-year-old Niqui McCown vanished. It was just three weeks before her wedding. She'd been doing laundry at a local laundromat. She told her mother that some men were hassling her, but insisted she could handle it. When she never came home, her family tried to report her missing, but it would be YEARS before they had any solid clues as to what happened.
