- Details of Disappearance:
- On March 24, 1982, 8-year-old Toya went missing from her home in Baltimore, Maryland. She’d gotten home from school, and her mom let her play outside before leaving the house. Toya disobeyed her mom and went to a nearby grocery store alone to buy candy. Near the store, she talked to her mom’s ex-boyfriend and his friend. Toya never came home.
Toya was a good kid, always getting awards at school. This was the first time she’d ever disobeyed her mom. Her mom, Annette, initially suspected the ex-boyfriend, repeatedly asking him about Toya, but he denied any involvement. Annette even married him (and then divorced him again) because she thought he might know something. He’s since passed away.
Toya’s case has little information, but police suspect something bad happened to her. Her mother is still hoping Toya will be found.
