7 Years Later, What Happened To The Bradley Sisters?
Posted: Thursday, 28 August 2008 10:06AM

CHICAGO (WBBM) - A small group of friends and supporters turned out Wednesday for a brief memorial in a Bronzeville neighborhood park, hoping to keep the media spotlight on the search for missing sisters Diamond and Tionda Bradley, last seen in 2001.

WBBM's Bob Roberts reports.

Notably absent from the gathering, in a park at 36th Street and Cottage Grove Avenue, was the girls' mother, Tracey Bradley.  Instead, the primary family spokesperson was the girls' aunt, Shelia Bradley Smith.

Smith thanked the North Carolina-based Cue Center for Missing Persons, which is profiling five missing persons' cases in the Chicago area as part of a 12-day, 17-state, 5,300-mile tour.  In all, it hopes to put the media spotlight on 110 cases nationwide.

Tensions long ago boiled over the the Bradley family, and Smith said she does not speak with the girls' mother.

Smith said she is driven by a need to know what has happened to the girls, sometimes to the brink of exhaustion.  She said she commutes regularly between Minneapolis and Chicago to meet with investigators.  She said she believes a cable TV channel should be devoted to news about and stories of missing children.

"Why can't I click to a station and see missing kids?  Why do I have to watch Britney Spears?" she asked.

Smith said she still has a difficult time believing that a girl whose photo appeared on the Internet is not Tionda.  Police and the FBI determined earlier this year that the girl had no relation to the case, but Smith said she remains convinced it is a sign that one day the girls will be found.

After taking part in the Bronzeville event, Smith was driven to Bolingbrook to take part in gatherings focusing on Rachel Mellon, who disappeared at the age of 13 in January 1996, and for missing housewife Stacy Peterson, who has been missing for 10 months.

Mysterious Cases

The whereabouts of the Bradley sisters has stumped the FBI for seven years.

Tionda Bradley, who was 10 at the time of the disappearance, and her sister Diamond, who was 3, vanished from the apartment they shared in Chicago with their mother, Tracey, July 6, 2001. Bradley left her daughters at the house to go to work. When she returned, she found a note in her daughter Tionda's handwriting, saying the two girls had walked to school.

Some investigators speculated that both girls were kidnapped and taken to North Africa by a man who was angry because he was paying child support for one of the children he later found out he had not fathered.

A $30,000 reward has been offered for information that helps find the Bradley sisters.

After 8 years, Bradley girls still missing
 
By J. Coyden Palmer
Special to the NNPA from the Chicago Crusader



CHICAGO (NNPA)—In the most baffling disappearance case in Chicago’s history, the search continues for sisters Diamond and Tionda Bradley eight years after they went missing from their Bronzeville home. A vigil was held in their honor early last month.

Many of those who attended have been present at each event since the girls first went missing in the summer of 2001. The girls reportedly left a note for their mother saying they were going to the store and have never been heard from again.

Led by family spokesperson the Rev. Paul Jakes, the vigil included songs of worship and praise, raising hopes for the family the girls will be found alive. Despite what many consider low odds the girls are still alive, their mother Tracy Bradley believes someone knows where her children are. She said her faith in God is what sustains her hope.

“It’s been a long eight years,” Bradley began. “But we’re still hoping and praying that they will come back home. If my kids can see that there is a number out there for them to call, I’m sure they will contact the police or FBI.”

Bradley herself has raised eyebrows within the community as many feel her answers to questions about the girls’ disappearance have been evasive. At one point during the investigation police arrested Bradley for disorderly conduct but the charges were dropped. When asked by the Crusader recently what personality traits about her daughters could she share with the public in hopes of finding her children, she responded by saying:

“I can’t really add anything.”

Jim Miller is a private investigator who has been working the case since 2001. He said despite the time that has gone by, he and other investigators still are getting leads and following up on them. Their most recent information was about three months ago he said. They have worked with psychics and others in hope of finding the girls and he believes due to the high publicity surrounding this case, there is a chance the girls are still alive.

Even though the girls would now be 17 and 10, Miller said people can’t assume the girls can call the police on their own. He said their abductors could be preventing them from communicating with others by physical restraint or they could be suffering the effects of Stockholm syndrome, in which they would have been indoctrinated by their captors’ belief or have lost all hope and have accepted their situation. “As they grow older, they may be able to get on the social networking sites and ask themselves where they come from,” said Miller of the girls. “The most recent lead we’ve had came a couple of months ago when someone thought they spotted the girls at a carnival in Mississippi. It was a dead lead.”

He said even though there are age-progressed photographs out, many people call with tips but it’s a mistaken identity. Miller said that’s okay because it means there is still a lot of public interest in the case and that all tips are followed up on by investigators and law enforcement.

Bradley still believes that someone in the community knows what happened to her children that day. She said she’s sure they didn’t run away on their own and finds it hard to believe that on a hot summer day in Chicago nobody saw the girls leaving their apartment. Bradley had left the girls asleep in their apartment at 6 a.m. when she went to work. She got home shortly after 11 a.m. and discovered a handwritten note from Tionda saying the girls had gone to the store and then to play at a local school. Tionda was in summer school at the time and schools officials say she was absent on the day the girls went missing.

“I’ve been passing out flyers and been out here searching and looking for Diamond and Tionda,” Bradley said. “If anybody sees them, please call the police. Don’t be afraid because any little tip can help and we are going to keep these vigils going until we find them.”

Law enforcement officials have named no suspects in the case. All family, friends and acquaintances remain “persons of interest,” and no one has been ruled out, investigators with the Chicago Police Department’s Cold Case Squad say.

If you have information you are urged to call the FBI at (312) 431- 1333 or investigator Jim Miller at (312) 755-9700. There is also a website that includes updated information about the case at www.bradleysisters.com. There is a $30,000 reward for information that leads to finding the missing sisters.

The Story of Diamond and Tionda: Chicago's Missing Children

By Bryan Alaspa send a private message Chicago : IL : USA | Jun 03, 2010

There are a lot of stories of horror and crime in the city of Chicago. Sadly, there are even more stories of people who have gone missing and never been found. However, few stories are as sad or have been as haunting as the story of Diamond and Tionda Bradley. The story of these two children, ages 10 and 3 at the time of their disappearance, has haunted the city, parents and investigators since they vanished in 2001.

The two children were used to being alone. Their mother, Tracey, was a working single mother. As two latch-key kids, they were used to taking care of themselves. They were well known in their south Chicago neighborhood. In fact, on July 6, 2001, they were seen by neighbors playing in their front yard.

Tionda was supposed to be at a summer school class on that day. School authorities, however, say she was absent that day. After neighbors say they saw the two playing in their yard, there seems to have been no witnesses or evidence of what happened next. Only when their mother came home that evening would things get worrisome.

Tracey would later tell authorities that she had left early that morning to head to work. Her daughters were asleep in the living room which was the coolest room in the apartment. When she came home the apartment was empty. The plan for the family to head to Indiana that night for a camping trip. Instead of her daughters and packing, she found a note in Tionda's handwriting that said they were going to the store and then to play at a nearby school.

Tracey was worried. She spent time searching the neighborhood. She also searched the school where the note said they would be playing. The girls were not there. When nighttime arrived she finally called police and reported the girls missing. This is when investigators asked neighbors if they had seen the girls and they told them the girls had been seen outside their apartment complex playing.

What happened next was one of the largest manhunts in the history of Chicago. The police even dug up the dirt cellar of New Hope Church which was under construction at the time. They then searched nearby steel mills, any woods in the area and small lakes and ponds that were scattered around their apartment complex. They found nothing.

The police first focused on the girl's father, George Washington. However, after questioning him for more than two days, they released him without charging him with anything. Washington and Tracey, as it turned out, were the only ones to see the two girls alive for certain.

Since then, nothing has been heard from the two girls. Their bodies have not been found. No information about whether they are alive or dead has been found. No one has contacted their mother or family to claim they have the girls. It has been nothing but silence. Only the passing anniversaries of their disappearance keep the girls in the news. They have been featured in countless television tributes and national crime shows to help find the missing. They are still vanished without a trace.

Tionda was ten when she disappeared. She had a light complexion and slim build and was particularly fond of wearing her hair in long ponytails. When she was last seen she was wearing green ponytail holders and had a scrape on her left calf.

Diamond, meanwhile, was three when she disappeared. She had a medium complexion and was fond of wearing her hair in braided ponytails. She was wearing purple ponytail holders when she was last seen. She had a scar on her scalp, on the left side and deep-set eyes.

9 years later, South Side sisters are still missing

July 7, 2010  BY CHERYL V. JACKSON

The anniversary of the July 6, 2001, disappearance of Tionda and Diamond Bradley, the two sisters who went missing from their South Side apartment, brings mixed feelings for their relatives.

"It's like bittersweet for our family. We miss them, but we have to get the word out," said their aunt, Shelia Bradley Smith.

There's a little more focus on the sweet this year, as Mars Inc. has etched the girls' faces and the date of their disappearance on M&M's Chocolate Candies and donated the candy for use in a missing children's awareness program in North Carolina next month.

The company made the move at the request of Smith. The images of two other girls, Asha Degree, who's missing from Shelby, N.C., and Donna Barnhill, who's missing from Lexington, N.C., were included in the shipment.

Tionda was 10. Diamond was 3. The girls would be 19 and 12 today.

On Tuesday, family members huddled under a tree during a downpour at Ellis Park for an annual vigil to encourage residents to provide information about the girls' disappearance.

"I'm so disappointed in the Chicagoland community, especially the Bronzeville community," Smith said from her home in North Carolina. "There is no way two children disappeared off the face of the earth and no one has seen anything."

A Chicago Police Department spokesman said police are "actively investigating that case."

Vigil to be held today for Bradley sisters� disappearance
Sisters vanished nine years ago

Tuesday, July 6, 2010 by Kathy Chaney

Diamond and Tionda Bradley�s family continues to keep their case in the spotlight by holding prayer vigils and marches every July 6, the day they disappeared nine years ago.

The Bradley sisters went missing from their South Side home in 2001. They were ages 3 and 10 respectively. They would now be 12 and 19 years old.

Tracey Bradley, the girls� mother went to work as usual the morning of July 6, 2001. She returned home a few hours later to an empty apartment on East 35th Street and Lake Park Avenue. An unsuccessful private search was conducted by family and friends before the Chicago Police Department was called that evening.

Searches in the neighborhood, at the Dan Ryan Woods, Washington Park and in more than 5,000 abandoned buildings across the city yielded no results.

Their sisters case initially garnered national attention and sparked the largest hunt in Chicago Police Department history. The Nancy Grace Show often features the sisters� case and also did a one-hour special about their disappearance. Their case was also featured on America�s Most Wanted.

�It�s important for my nieces to know the family has never given up on trying to find them. We remain optimistic that we will all be reunited,� the girls� aunt Shelia Bradley-Smith told the Defender.

Bradley-Smith said keeping their case in the national spotlight helps tremendously in keeping the girls' disappearance case from going stale.

The candlelight vigil for the girls will be held today at 6 p.m. in the 3500 block of South Cottage Grove Avenue.

Tour encourages communities not to forget missing persons
Donna Barnhill, who disappeared in 1981 from Lexington, is included

BY STEVE HUFFMAN The Dispatch
Published: Thursday, August 19, 2010 at 5:40 p.m. Last Modified: Thursday, August 19, 2010 at 5:40 p.m.

Sheliah Smith moved from Chicago to Lexington a little more than a year ago and immediately began wondering what became of Donna Barnhill, a Davidson County girl who disappeared in 1981 when she was just 13

Barnhill was never found.

�I wondered why no one was looking for her,� Smith said.

On Thursday, Smith helped get the word out about Barnhill as well as numerous other missing persons from across the state and nation. The Missing Persons Tour 2010 made a stop at Smith's house on East Ninth Street.

The tour is sponsored by representatives of the Community United Effort Center for Missing Persons, the brainchild of Monica Caison, a Wilmington resident. The nonprofit organization was founded in 1994.

Every year, Caison tours much of the nation, making stops in cities to try and generate new interest in cases of missing persons, the trails for whom have often grown long cold.

There was a reason that Caison made Thursday's stop at Smith's house. Nine years ago, two of Smith's nieces, Tionda and Diamond Bradley, disappeared from a park in Chicago. Tionda was 10 and Diamond was 3.

Smith said Caison made a stop at her home in Chicago on one of her previous tours. The two women hugged and greeted one another like old friends Thursday.

Pastor Danny Pope of Lexington's Seventh Day Adventist Church led a prayer that was followed by the release of helium balloons in honor of the missing. Before the balloons set sail, Smith reminded those who gathered in her yard that Barnhill's disappearance was never solved.

�There's a kidnapper among us,� Smith said.

Caison said the tour that brought her to Lexington kicked off earlier in the day with a stop in Carrboro. On Friday, they'll hold a rally in Charlottesville, Va.

Over the next 10 days, Caison will visit 11 states to put the word out about missing individuals.

She said the tour features 109 individuals whose photographs are mounted on a map of the United States, then the map turned into a huge poster. One hung Thursday in front of Smith's house.

Caison said she features 109 missing individuals each year because that's the number that will fit on the map with the pictures still able to be easily seen.

�We bring them national awareness,� Caison said of those individuals who have long been missing.

She said that thus far, every year of the tour's existence has resulted in at least one solved case. Caison said that a year ago, the case solved was of an individual who had been missing for 28 years.

Smith said the idea behind the tour is to get individual cases back before the media, to get the word out that these individuals are still missing and loved.

�The whole concept is media awareness,� she said. �We want to remind people that someone cares about these people and they need our help.�

At Thursday's rally, Smith displayed bowls of M&Ms candies that bore likenesses of the faces of her nieces, Barnhill and Asha Degree, a girl who is missing from Shelby. Earlier this year, Mars Inc. etched the girls' faces and the date of their disappearances on M&Ms used in a missing children's awareness program in North Carolina. The company made the move, Smith said, at her request.

�It's like I'm holding them in my hands,� Smith said as she held bowls containing candy that bore the likenesses of the girls.

'Emergency summit' on missing, endangered youth

David Jackson
Tribune reporter
1:53 p.m. CST, January 21, 2011

Saying he is alarmed by the rate of attempted child abductions in the Chicago area -- as well as by the perceptions that the cases are handled less vigorously when they involve black and Latino youth -- U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush, D-Ill., tomorrow will convene an �Emergency Summit on Missing and Endangered Children and Teens.�

The event, scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. in the auditorium of Kennedy King College, 740 W. 63rd St., was called in response to a recent Chicago Tribune investigative series that examined 530 attempted child abductions by strangers in the city and suburbs since 2008, Rush said today in a statement.

The Tribune found that only 5 percent of those cases resulted in an arrest and prosecution. The newspaper also noted that in the 407 preliminary Chicago police reports identified by the Tribune since March 2008, the arrest rate was sharply lower in areas that had higher crime rates and more single-parent households and families on public assistance. This concentration of disparities correlates closely with race in Chicago, and those South and West Side census tracts were predominantly African-American and Hispanic.

�There has long been a perception in low-income neighborhoods where many people of color live that when their children go missing there is less urgency than when children from white or affluent communities disappear,� Rush said. �I called this summit to not only educate the communities about the predators lurking in our neighborhoods but to also address why this perception exists.�

Rush said he will be joined at the summit by Chicago Police Department Assistant Superintendent James Jackson; FBI Special Agent Sean Burke; Kirsten Anderson, national program director of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children; First Assistant Cook County State�s Attorney Shauna Boliker; prosecutor Patti Sudendorf of the Sex Crimes Division of the Cook County State�s Attorney's Office; 20th Ward Ald. Willie Cochran, a former Chicago Police officer; Kathy P. Chaney, online editor of the Chicago Defender; Rose Stearns, mother of missing teen Yasmin Acree; Sheila Powell, aunt of slain child Jahmeshia Conner; and Martha Torres, the grandmother of sisters Tionda and Diamond Bradley.

Acree was a 15-year-old student at Austin Polytech High School when she went missing three years ago from her West Side home. Family members criticized law enforcement for a �botched investigation� and for asserting the teen was a runaway despite evidence of forced entry into her home.

Conner was a fifth-grader living in the Englewood community in Rush�s district when she vanished while walking home from a bus stop less than two blocks from her home. The child�s relatives complained that police refused to issue an Amber Alert, believing the 12-year-old had run away from home. The girl was later found dead in an alley, having been sexually assaulted and strangled.

Another high-profile, unsolved case in Rush�s district involved the Bradley sisters, who went missing from their South Side neighborhood in July 2001, when they were 3 and 10 years old.

In his statement, Rush commended law enforcement for a recent arrest in the murder of 9-year-old Mya Lyons. �It was a horrific case, then, and now that her father has been arrested in her death it remains a horrific case now,� Rush said. �None of us should rest until each and every one of these cases involving missing, abducted and slain children are solved.�

Rush added: �My goal is (to) educate the community on ways to protect our children, as well as inform people of the processes, procedures, and resources that are in place for when a child goes missing. The constituents in my district must have the trust and confidence in their public officials that everything is being done to protect our children, and when a child is abducted, finding them and bringing the perpetrators to justice is a top priority for all of us whose job it is to protect the community.�

Washington girls basketball star is sister of missing Chicago girls
By Mike Nieto
nwi.com
Posted: Thursday, January 27, 2011 10:00 pm

CALUMET CITY | Washington girls basketball player Victoria Bradley doesn't talk much about it because of the hurt.

The sister of Diamond and Tionda Bradley, the two Chicago sisters who disappeared on July 6, 2001, doesn't like to talk about their disappearance, yet she finds solace and hope when talking about it.

"It is painful every time I talk about it," Victoria said recently while at Tom's Restaurant in Calumet City. "It is so hard because we are still waiting for them to come home. It is has just been a hard time for me and my family."

Bradley, a basketball star at the East Side high school, was not home the morning of her sisters' disappearance. There have been no leads in the case.

She said she was at her grandmother's house and her mom went to work and left the two in the living room of their South Side apartment. There was a note, apparently written by Tionda, then 11, saying she and Diamond were going to a nearby park.

That is the last anyone has seen of the two. Their mother and father were both questioned by Chicago Police, but were let go. The area near their apartment was searched from the Metra tracks to abandoned buildings, to no avail.

Tionda would have turned 20 years old on Jan. 20. It is a case which still touches the hearts of Chicagoans and the nation.

Victoria said her faith has helped her and she still holds out that when she comes home from practice or a game, she will be surprised.

"I hope I come home one day and they are there waiting for me," Bradley said. "I would say, 'Where have you been? It has been a long time. Welcome home!'"

Her aunt, April Jackson, said the family prays for the safe return of Diamond and Tionda. She also is impressed how Victoria has been able to handle the stress.

"Basketball is her outlet," Jackson said. "She is passionate about the game and that is good for her.

"This has been tough on everyone in our family. There is no closure. We just pray and hope."

As of now, there have been no hot leads. A spokesman for the Chicago Police Department said it is still an ongoing investigation.

Victoria's birthday is July 7, one day after the disappearance. She has never celebrated a birthday since that fateful July day in 2001.

"I don't want to celebrate, no cake, nothing," Bradley said. "All I want is for my sisters to come home. Then we can celebrate."

She said it affected her in school and socially.

"I got F's. It was really tough for me," Bradley said. "It took some time for me. ... Even coming to Washington, a new school, so far south, I was a little scared.

"It is just something you cannot explain."

On the court, Bradley is averaging 17. 5 points and 12.7 rebounds per game for the Patriots, who are back on the winning track.

"I try not to think about it (the disappearance) because as I said, it is so painful," Bradley said. "I think basketball does get that off my mind, but it is hard not to think about them. We (her and her family), we think about them every day. I am not going to lie, they are always on my mind."

It was tough at Washington where she has played for four different coaches. An elite program struggled when Gerald Ewing left after her freshman year to become an assistant coach at Johnson County Community College (Kan.) and most of the team transferred. Bradley, who was a Times All-Area pick as a sophomore, quit last year in December.

She said several local community colleges have shown interest in her.

"I love playing basketball and I just needed to get away from it last year," she said. "I think I can play in college."

Tionda and Diamond Bradley - Ten Years Later

By Chuck Sudo in News on July 6, 2011 2:00 PM

While Nancy Grace and others go apoplectic over the Casey Anthony verdict (WBEZ's Steve Edwards interviewed Anthony's Chicago-based attorney Andrea Lyon on 848 this morning), we're reminded that ten years ago today two girls in Bronzeville went missing and have never been seen since.

Tionda and Diamond Bradley disappeared on July 6, 2001. Tionda, 10 at the time, and 3-year-old Diamond were used to being left alone and nothing seemed out of the ordinary as their mother Tracey went to work that day.

When Tracey returned home during the lunch hour, she found a note from Tionda stating the girls were visiting Doolittle School, where Tionda was taking summer classes.

Yet other names of African American females such as Yasmin Acree (missing since 2008), Diamond and Tionda Bradley (missing since 2001) and Jameshia Conner (found dead in 2009 two weeks after being reported missing) are not part of the national narrative.

This past weekend the family of Yasmin Acree issued an emotional plea to Chicago area news outlets asking anyone with information to come forward. Acree has been missing for four years and would be 18 years old.

Never give up hope: Still missing in America
The miraculous discovery of three Cleveland, Ohio, women gives hope to other families still searching for loved ones.

updated 5:48 PM EDT, Tue May 07, 2013.

The stunning discovery of three women found alive after allegedly being held captive for a decade inside a Cleveland, Ohio, home has reminded many of us about the thousands of other people still missing in America. 

Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight were teenagers when they all vanished separately, but they were allegedly held captive in the same house. 

A 52-year-old former school bus driver, Ariel Castro, and his two brothers have been arrested and are in custody pending charges in connection with the case.

The miraculous discovery of these three women has surely given hope to other families still searching for answers about their missing loved ones.

...

Tionda & Diamond Bradley

On July 6, 2001, 10-year-old Tionda Bradley and her sister, 3-year-old Diamond, were reported missing to the Chicago Police Department.

According to their mother, a note written by Tionda was found, stating that the two girls were going to the store and to the school playground.

Their disappearance sparked one of the largest searches in Chicago�s history.

Tionda is described as an African-American female with black hair and brown eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she was 4�2� tall and weighed 70 lbs. She has a quarter-sized scar on her left forearm.

Diamond is described as an African-American female with black hair and brown eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she was 3' tall and weighed 35 lbs. She has a scar on the left side of her head at her hairline.

Anyone with information about their disappearance is urged to contact the tipline at 1-800-THE-LOST.

...
