Black and Missing co-founders explain how to protect children from sex trafficking
18 November 2021
''While the sister duo continues to help get Black and missing person cases media and police attention, they shared some tips on how parents can help protect their children from falling victim to child sex trafficking.

"Sex trafficking is a multibillion-dollar industry," Natalie said. "Since the pandemic, our caseload has increased because children are being sold into sex trafficking."

She went on to say that many of these children are unknowingly meeting predators online, so parents need to be "vigilant" about observing their child's online activity.

"We need you to monitor what your children are viewing online, what images they're sharing, who they're talking to," Natalie said. "We spend most of our time online. So guess what? Our children are spending time online as well."
 
More than a year after her disappearance, a man has been charged in connection with missing woman Tamika Huston, and remains that might be hers have been found.

Friday afternoon, Public Safety Director Tony Fisher said that Christopher Lemont Hampton, 25, has been charged with murder. Fisher said recently uncovered forensic evidence indicated that Hampton was responsible for Huston's death.

Court documents show police found brass knuckles, traces of Huston's blood and keys matching Hustons inside Hampton's apartment.

During questioning Friday, Hampton led investigators to an area near a Duncan industrial park, where human skeletal remains were found.

"We're not sure why he decided to make a statement and bring us to this location. We're just thankful that he did," Fisher said.

He wanted a softer sentence, that's why.
 
"I was shocked because I will tell you, I think I was very naive to what was going to happen here,” Rebkah Howard, Huston’s aunt who is also a public relations specialist, reflected in a new "20/20" interview about the case. “It was met with deaf ears. No one was really listening to me.”

When the 24-year-old Huston went missing in May 2004, her family was certain her case would garner national media attention. Stories of missing white women, like Lori Hacking or Laci Peterson, dominated the news cycle, but not those of women of color like Huston.
