At this point in life, I would say that she was happy.

The day after we had gotten a chance to meet Marquise, Latasha called me. I can tell by the tone of her voice that something wasn't right. But when she called, I was busy at the time. And so I told her I would give her a call back once I leave my meeting. I called her the next day and I didn't get an answer.

My mom called, and she was like, have you talked to Tasha? She told me that my aunt and uncle were headed to Jackson because Latasha hadn't reported to class. And they were worried. At that point, my heart dropped. because I knew, you know, something was going on with her because of the tone of her voice a couple of days before that.

I thought I was in a nightmare because you see things like this on TV all the time, but never in a million years would I have thought that, hey, this is actually happening to someone in my family, like missing. The next day, the cousins and the rest of the family decided, hey, we're going to go to Jackson on our own, and we're going to look for Tasha. We started formulating search teams.

We put up flyers. We walked door to door, mainly in the area of where Jackson State was.

We didn't know much about him. Of course, our minds wondered, had he done something to her?

when Tasha went missing. It was a very dark spot for everyone. I had a few friends and classmates who attended Jackson State during that time. You're supposed to feel safe when you're off to college, and for that to happen, you know, everyone was in fear. I can recall one of my friends calling and texting me every day. She would always say, like, Nikki, this can't be real.
