| College Student Missing |
| Wednesday, November 28, 2007 |
According to BET.com, on Nov. 13, Latasha Norman, a 20-year-old honors student at historically Black Jackson State University in Mississippi, walked out of her afternoon marketing class. Nobody has seen her since, and the police want your help in locating her. When she was last seen, she was wearing a white shirt and blue jeans, according to ABC News. While police say they've received numerous tips, the fact that Norman is Black is keeping it off the front pages of America’s newspapers, they say. "As far as the interest by the national media in the story, I think race probably had an impact," Jackson, Miss., Police Chief Malcolm McMillin told ABC News. Stanley Cole, Norman’s 23-year-old boyfriend, was charged with assault last week for allegedly hitting her during an argument, but he has not been named as a suspect in her disappearance. In addition to Jackson Police, the Jackson State University Department of Public Safety and the Hinds County Sheriff Department are all working on the case, according to ABC News.
