This is a local case for me. I grew up in Madison county so this case hits home to me. To sum it up, she was in the front yard playing with her siblings when her mom left to go the grocery store. She told 2 year old myra to go inside with her siblings and dad. However, she never came in and the dad and siblings assumed the mother took her with her at last minute. When the mother returned a few hours later, she said she never had myra with her and thought she went back inside the house. So basically, each parents assumed the other one had her. She hasn't been found to this date.
The long story is that, she disappeared between 10:30 and 11 a.m. (30 minute window) The grandparents live across the street and they thought she went there but never found her. Parents searched for her an hour before calling police. At one point, there were some sightings of her in Memphis tennesee. A worker at a hotel said she thought she saw myra with some man but when police arrived they were already gone. At one point, the parent's kids were removed from the home because it was said to be condemned. Here's her charley's project:http://charleyproject.org/case/myra-rena-lewis. This article talks about the search efforts:https://www.clarionledger.com/story/news/local/2019/03/04/myra-lewis-missing-child-madison-county-mississippi-5-years/3057453002/
Also, I don't want this to over shadow her daughter's disappearance but the mother was on probation for food stamp fraud at one point www.wapt.com/article/mother-of-missing-girl-released-from-jail/2088557 but I don't think that means she guilty of harming her child.
edit: update: Myra's mom had a previous felony conviction but it's unknown what for. Both parents and other family members have taken lie detector tests. Police say parents and family members have all been cooperative. Police even checked out family's SUV and nothing of significance has been reported on it.
