DC DC - Teresa Young, Adult, Washington DC, 2015

[Gardener1850]

Jessica Young talks about her mother in the past tense.

“She had a tattoo on her left shoulder. . . . She was a good person. . . . She was a good mom,” she said.

Young speaks of her mother as if she were dead, but Young really has no idea whether she is. Theresa Young disappeared in 2015, with no hint since then of where she went, whether she is safe and why she vanished.

“It’s really scary not knowing anything,” said Jessica Young, whose mother was living in Northeast Washington when she disappeared.

That is why Young, 30, and her sister attended the first “Missing in Washington D.C.”

On Saturday, before giving her DNA sample, Young, who lives in Southeast Washington, scrolled through images on her phone to show detectives pictures of her mother.

Young still keeps her mother’s cell number in her phone under the label “Mommy” and often thinks Teresa Young is “dead somewhere” — but she also holds out hope.

“We all love her,” Young said. “We’re all looking for her, and we want her to come home.”

‘We want her to come home.’ Families of those who vanished search for answers.
