‘She disappeared’: Woman searching for daughter missing since 2018

Jan. 5, 2022

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) - The holidays are especially difficult for Machelle Goldsmith. Her daughter Lakira “Pigg” Goldsmith went missing days after Thanksgiving in 2018.

“My daughter went missing Nov. 29, 2018,” Marchelle Goldsmith said, “It’s been a nightmare. I can barely think and it’s just hard for me day-to-day, getting out of bed, and just going on with my day.”

Lakira was just 20 years old when she disappeared. She was last seen at a Montgomery apartment complex on Narrow Lane Road. There were initial reports that she was seen talking with a maintenance employee. Other reports said she was talking to a boyfriend or friend.

Marchelle Goldsmith said Lakira’s grandmother spoke to her briefly the day she disappeared.

Marchelle feels like Montgomery police and the community did not take her daughter’s case seriously, in the beginning. A department spokesperson said in part, “we cannot comment or conduct an interview on active cases.”

Recently, Marchelle Goldsmith has been in touch with an MPD detective about the case, but she really wants the community’s support.

Still not found!
this tidbit hit me kinda funny..

"Reports vary. Some indicate that a maintenance man in her apartment complex Narrow Lane said he saw Lakira around 2:00 am on November 29, 2018. The Charley Projects reports the maintenance worker said he let Lakira use his phone. The man went inside and left her outside talking on his phone. When he returned, Lakira was gone and his phone was laying on the steps.."

WOAH. How is this not being dialed in on? Reminds me of the case where the woman came home from the bar and the apartment complex she lived at has a security guard that raped and murdered her (Sasha Samsudean.) He initially played a role in "helping" the detectives then ultimately was the murderer.

Lakira got out of her bf's car, and the mom saw her get out of the car. Why not use the bf's phone or walk right to your home and use your mum's phone when you get there? Also, who did she call? I think the maintenance man needs to be looked at further..
