[SheWhoMustNotBeNamed]

Bumping again for Tarasha. The news just stopped. Did they stop looking for her?!?

Tarasha is still missing. Anyone with information should contact the Selma Police Department at (334)874-2125 or NCMEC at 1-800-THE-LOST.

Tarasha's family is doing an excellent job in getting her info out on the internet. If they read here, I hope that they request that the detectives in charge of finding Tarasha enter Tarasha's info into NamUs.

Prayers for Tarasha. Come home soon sweetie.

Respectfully snipped.

FWIW, anyone can enter a case into NamUs. Law enforecement, her parents, or even you or I. Since you made me think of it, I'll go submit her information now.

ETA: Her info has been submitted. Might take a few days to weeks to get it approved.

Still waiting on the NamUs approval...


There’s still hope

There is the usual lighted tree and other baubles reminiscent of the holiday season in the Benjamin households in Selma. But this year will be a particularly hard one for those relatives of a missing teenage girl.

[snip]

Nearly six months ago on a Saturday, the 17-year-old Selma teen left her house to go to a nearby flea market.

Regina Benjamin last saw her daughter at 10 a.m. that day. She wore blue shorts, a striped turquoise, yellow and white short-sleeve shirt and possibly she wore sliver sandals.

The gray Mazda Tribute she drove was discovered abandoned on the Cecil Jackson Bypass. The truck had two missing windows on the driver’s side and a broken door on the driver’s side.

“It has been six months to the day on Dec. 26,” said Selma City Councilwoman Angela Benjamin, Pooh’s cousin. “This is so sad, but we keep looking.”

I think of Tarasha often. I hope that she is found soon.

SheWho... Thank you for posting the update about NamUS... even though we're just still waiting, it's nice to know that's what happening.

 

[SheWhoMustNotBeNamed]

I do kind of wish they'd get with it on NamUs. It's been close to two months. But she does have a NamUs case manager and regional administrator assigned now. Shouldn't be too much longer (I hope).

Tarasha is now on NamUs. https://www.findthemissing.org/cases/8618/0/

Last summer, when Tarasha Benjamin was reported missing, Abbott helped coordinate search teams in the northern portion of Dallas County, including divers from the Calera Fire, the Calera Police Department and the Calera Search and Rescue Unit in addition to local fire and rescue units.

“She has a caring spirit. You could see that right off,” the aunt of the missing 18-year-old, Angela Benjamin, said. “She brought those from the outside in to help our family in our search. The family thanks her for her help.”

Thinking of "pooh" and her family. She's been on my mind lately. Come home soon sweetie.
