Missing Non-White Woman

Not that it hasn't just been gripping television watching all-Natalee-Holloway, all the time, but I now find out that, in the entire United States of America, there's actually another young woman missing. Thanks to Richard Cranium of The All Spin Zone, we've learned of the disappearance of 25-year-old Latoyia Figueroa of Philadelphia.

Richard has written a letter to Nancy Grace of CNN asking that Latoyia's story be covered with a fraction of the obsession put into the Natalee Holloway case.

Included in the letter are these salient facts:

1) Latoyia (we should only use her first name) is not white.
2) She does not have blonde hair.
3) She was not scheduled to get married last weekend.
4) She's from West Philadelphia.
5) There may actually be a lead or two in her case.
6) HER UNBORN BABY, HER UNBORN BABY, HER UNBORN BABY.
7) To the best of our knowledge, no one from Texas has yet offered to bring in cadaver dogs to search for Latoyia, nor have forensic dive teams volunteered to scour the Schuylkill or Delaware rivers.
8 ) Also to the best of our knowledge, the FBI hasn't been requested to participate in the investigation, nor have any DNA samples been rushed to Washington, DC.
9) HER UNBORN BABY, HER UNBORN BABY, HER UNBORN BABY.

But don't read any more here. Please go to The All Spin Zone, the excellent blog that is spearheading coverage of the Latoyia Figueroa story.
