Lisa Hatchell



Lisa Michelle Hatchell

In two days it will be Lisa's birthday. It also marks the day that she disappeared in 2003, five long years ago, from Philadelphia, PA after an argument with her long term boyfriend, Tyrone Henderson. It won't be much of a celebration for her grieveing mother,Alonie Walton, and Lisa's two children.

Lisa was a veteran who served in the military and protected our country, but where were the ones who are sworn to protect and serve on our streets when Lisa went missing? Like so many other missing persons cases, there was not much done in the critical hours in the beginning, not even questioning Tyrone and searching the house they shared. To this day, the house has not been searched and Tyrone has moved on.

Alonie Walton and Lisa's family, like so many others, have had to make phone calls, write letters, make demands that someone look closer into this case. Many times there are no return calls and just more disappointment. The family has reached out to the internet to get this case back in the news.

Nancy Grace, of CNN, ran a story in January 2008 that highlighted Lisa's case.

It would be so nice if she would do an update for Lisa's birthday and 5 year anniversary of being missing, getting the word out there one more time. It would be a bittersweet gift to Alonie to know that the world has not forgotten her daughter.

This is one more missing mother who has children wondering what happened, where is she?

It is time for all of us who can to mobilize, write, call, put her story on all of your blogs, websites and Myspace pages and any other network to which you belong.

Please help us by writing to elected officials, addresses located at the link below, help us contact media to get more attention for Lisa's case.

It's her birthday!

Kristen Anderson




Wheeling, WV sits on the Ohio River and is a city that is rich in history. The people who live their are strong, determined people who worked in coal mines, steel mills, and glass factories. A sister across the river is Martins Ferry, Ohio and the people of both areas will not give up hope that one day a young mother will be found.

Kristen Anderson's life was taken from her at the age of 24 by a controlling, abusive, violent husband, James. Kristen had moved out of their home and in with a friend to escape the years of abuse. It was here that a violent argument ensued and when her friend came downstairs to soothe a crying child, Kristen was nowhere to be found, although her glasses, purse, and cell phone were left behind.

Oct. 1, 2006 was the last time Kristen was seen, on surveillance video, her lifeless body being carried out of James' apartment and put into the trunk of his car. Where he took her from there, no one knows.

He was brazen enough to tell a friend that his wife's body would never be found and yet cowardly enough to take his own life when he found out about the incriminating video, never telling anyone where the mother of his children could be found. It is an awful and gruesome story and he took it to his grave.

Kristen's mother, Mary Dailey, knew something was wrong that morning and tried to file a missing person's report but was told she had to wait 24 hours before investigators would take the report. She turned to a local news station for help, but still had to wait the 24 hours before police would step in to help.

In the midst of all of this horror were two little boys, Michael and Eric. They reportedly witnessed years of abuse their mother suffered at the hands of James Anderson, including the night she died. It has been reported that they witnessed their mother sitting on the couch that morning, but she wouldn't talk to them and little Michael told his grandmother later that Mommy felt very cold when he touched her.

Kristen's brother, Ed, saw a large barrel next to his sister's home that was gone shortly after she vanished and wonders if James put Kristen inside the barrel and sent it into the Ohio River.

There are several areas of speculation concerning where Kristen's body may be, but so far she has not been located, leaving behind two young sons who are now being raised by their grandmother, along with three other grandchildren. At the memorial service the two youngsters cried in grief when they saw pictures of their mother and clung to their remaining family members.

These two young boys, along with the rest of Kristen's family and friends are all victims of domestic violence. Although the memorial service was meant for closure to those who loved her, there can never be closure until she is found and brought home to the family that loves her.

Please go to the links provided to read the details of this sad case. Keep these little boys in your prayers and pray that they heal from the deep wounds that have been inflicted upon them.

Lucely "Lilly" Aramburo, Ignored or Coverup?



The mounting frustration in any missing persons case is significant. There is so much to do and emotions are raw. The family and friends who work tirelessly, day and night, cling to any little bit of information no matter how negligible it may seem to anyone else. Every bit of uncovered evidence is scrutinized and analyzed with hope for the clue to bring that person home.

Lilly's case is not that much different other than the fact that she has become real to me through the efforts of her friend. Just when you think you have made a breakthrough, something is there to knock you back again. This is what she has been going through for over a year in her search for Lilly. She found solace in the fact that many of us on the internet were willing to do some behind the scenes work for her, emailing, calling, and setting up connections.

Then, once again, the brick wall. Miami Dade detectives have stifled her efforts every time. She has turned in tips, passed on information, all the right things. They choose to react at their own convenience. Many clues and much evidence which could bring a solution to this case has either been destroyed, covered up or ignored.

There is a piece of property in Miami that could hold answers. The owners have given permission to search the property, she has enlisted Search and Rescue teams, but Miami police will not give their needed approval to carry out these searches. They say they want to conduct their own. That is all well and good, but when are they going to get around to it, after even more evidence is destroyed?

There has been a plethora of clues uncovered in this case and they point to the unthinkable. Something happened the night of June 1, 2007 and there are those who know the answers. Lilly Aramburo did not walk out into the night at 2am in her pajamas to pick flowers.

Lilly possibly never left the home of Christen Pacheco that night on her own, but that home is now vacant and up for sale and has never been searched for forensic evidence. She could have been transported away from there to another place, but the vehicle in question was destroyed under strange circumstances.

What connections does Christen Pacheco have that keep him from being formally questioned in Lilly's disappearance? Thousands have joined in this effort to bring this case to the forefront, but MDPD, elected officials, and even the media have not responded properly.

If you would like to make a difference today, please write to the Governor, the Mayor of Miami, the US Attorney, and any and all media outlets you can google. Let's start making a noise that will be heard until Lilly comes home. Her son, Palden, deserves to know that his mother loves him and did not leave him voluntarily.

The telephone number to the US Attorney R. Alexander Costa's Office is 305-530-7679.

Lisa Stebic




Lisa has been missing from her home in Plainfield, Illinois since April 30, 2007. There are suspicious circumstances surrounding her disappearance and the details can be found on several sites listed at the bottom of this post.

Lisa and Craig Stebic are the parents of 2 children, Zach and Lexie, who for some time before April 30 lived in a home where tensions were high. Lisa and Craig had filed for divorce,lived in the same home with the children, although essentially living separate lives.

Lisa is reported, by her best friends and family members, to be a loving mother who adjusted her life according to the needs of her children, taking a job at the school cafeteria so she could be involved with them after their school day. She was looking forward to starting a new life, but, Craig Stebic was still verbally abusive. On the day she went missing Lisa signed and mailed a petition for him to be temporarily evicted from their home so that he could no longer damage the mental health of the family.

Craig Stebic has been put on notice as a person of interest in Lisa's disappearance, but, no arrest has been made. For over a year Zach and Lexie have been living with their father under this cloud and since October Craig Stebic has put an end to all communication with Lisa's family, grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousins of Zach and Lexie.

Lisa's family refuses to give up. They keep the momentum going in the search for answers that they, and Lisa's children, richly deserve. As grandparents they have had to file a petition in the courts to see their grandchildren. Grandparents have no rights given to them by the system, they have to fight for the right to visit the children of a daughter they love so much.

What affect does this isolation from family have on these kids? Children of divorce are more likely to have problems in life, but what about children of divorce where the mother has vanished?

It will take a strong support system to help these children develop into stable adults. When part of that support system is kept from them, what can we expect for them? They undoubtedly are missing their mother and her presence in their lives, then to be kept from interacting with those who also love them must be devastating to their young psyches. They must have so many questions and so few answers.

Please keep Zach and Lexie Stebic in your thoughts and prayers along with Lisa and her family that one day she will be found and justice will be served.

UPDATES

A low-key anniversary of Lisa Stebic's disappearance


APRIL 30,2011

The small-scale gesture comes four years after Stebic’s April 30, 2007 disappearance from her home on Red Star Drive. This is the first year since her disappearance that Stebic’s  family hasn’t organized a public vigil or ceremony in her honor.

With no news from law enforcement or suspects, friends and family have reigned in some of their search efforts. Most have abandoned the idea that she’ll turn up alive.

“We don’t have lingering hopes that she will be spotted at a Wal-Mart or something,” said Stebic’s cousin, Melanie Greenberg, who has served as a spokeswoman for the family since the disappearance. “We know that she’s dead, that she’s a victim of foul play.”

Details remain unclear about what happened the evening she disappeared. Stebic, who would be 41, often worked out in the evenings at Plainfield North High School. Craig Stebic, her estranged husband, has said he was working in the backyard while their then-10-and-12 year old children went to nearby store for candy.

The couple was in the middle of a divorce, and Lisa had obtained papers that day to evict Craig from the home, Greenberg said on Thursday from her Naperville home.

“Lisa is not going to be erased because we will carry on her memory and continue to make noise about it,” Greenberg said.

Heart Breaks for the Missing


Missing persons has lately become my obsession,especially missing mothers, for the simple fact that the children who are left to search for them will never have the void filled until all the questions are answered. How can they possibly feel whole and complete when the woman who gave them life is taken away from them?

This is a new venture for me and it is mostly satisfying, but quite frustrating when the day of looking under rocks is done and not a clue can be found.

I had to take this avocation into another direction and spread the word a little differently than just exposing myself to one case, one family. It is too easy to attach myself and my emotions to that person and it drains the life out of me, even though that is uncomparable to anything the family is going through.

I spread myself around a little more when delving into the information about these cases. I feel too much, if that can be possible. When I am researching articles I go through such a kaleidescope of emotions that I am immersed in that person and all the family members.

Why would I bring such sadness and anger into my psyche voluntarily? Because every page of the book has a new story to tell. Many of these stories will never be heard, thus many of these people have been erased from the planet unwillingly.

Who plays God and decides which missing person is deemed worthy of mention in the press, worthy of thorough investigation, worthy of sending out search parties? The anger I feel when I see a willingly neglected missing person case is beyond words.

So, each day I come back to the computer, read my blogs and forums, and search for the next missing person case. The odds are not in my favor for ever finding closure for these families, but if I can bring one minute of comfort or encouragement or hope to them, then I am satisfied.

Renee Lynette Kyles


A close knit family that spans four generations is missing a piece of the fabric that links them all. Renee Lynette Kyles is the daughter of an 80 year old mother, and she is a mother and grand mother. Renee moved to Kalamazoo, Michigan from Chicago to be near her daughter, La Joya Newton and her grand daugther. La Joya is the last known person to see her mother before she went missing and in her words "It's a big void in my life."

La Joya and her 11 year old watch and wait and search and pass out flyers. There are many sleepless nights waiting for the knock on the door, whether it be Renee or anyone with some information about her. The family has offered a $1000 reward for information and are frustrated as none has come forth since September 8, 2007 when La Joya and Renee had their last visit. The daily phone calls stopped and there was no more contact between mother and daughter. On September 17 La Joya reported to authorities that her mother was missing.

The last known siting of Renee was after her visit with La Joya, when some friends saw her leave her home and get into a black Pontiac. There is a video of Renee in the lobby of a local hotel from September 7, but no one knows if it has any significance in her disappearance.

http://www.brightcove.tv/title.jsp?title=1569823051 (video)

On September 19, Renee's birthday, her abandoned car was found with a suitcase and clothes in the trunk. The window was broken, but authorities did not find any evidence of foul play in the car. Could Renee Kyles have walked away from her life and her family? Investigators don't believe that to be true, nor does her family.

Faith and hope are what keep this family going. Detectives believe there is some kind of foul play involved, but have no leads. Renee's 80 year old mother, Alberta Whitley, has found that leaning on her faith in God will bring her answers.

But still, a beloved mother is missing and her family is torn with grief, yet holding on to their faith that she will return to them.
