Christopher Michael Pierce, 18 years old, (would have been 23
years old this year) left work at Taco Bell in Bossier City,
LA around midnight on May 19, 2003 & had not been
seen or heard from since then.
His mother, brothers, sister, & grandparents live
in Tennessee.
Before he disappeared, he told his mother on the
phone that his life had been threatened & he had
not been sleeping well & was afraid. Michael had
just graduated high school with honors, never in
trouble & was a sensitive, caring young man.
We were told by the police that kids disappear
all the time. Police have so many criminal matters
to handle that a missing boy was not top priority,
although they say that they have done all they can
do unless they have any other leads to follow.
So his disappearance had become a "cold case" until December 6, 2007 when they found his truck and remains in the Red River.
We are desparate to find answers to what happened to our precious child and how he ended up in the Red River.
To us,
this is a priority situation, but we have no one with
our sense of urgency.
We feel someone knows something & must come forward and talk to the police.
My husband and I have gone to Michael's home town & talked to people &
posted "missing" posters everywhere. Michael is gone now & we need
help or some solid advice or leads to prompt the police to further investigate.
We cannot afford a private investigator, or reward money however.
We are not prominent people who know how to get public attention.
However, we must cry out for our Michael. We feel that we must get
media attention & pray that your involvement would be a mighty
platform. Please help us with advice or anything.
Update: Indicted suspect Robert Cole is being held in the Bossier Maximum Security Facility for the Jan. 6 murder of his wife, Terresa, 26, and her unborn child, and now the murder of Michael Pierce 4 1/2 years ago. We must have justice for Michael, TJ and her unborn baby.
We do know that countless people & churches are praying. Gods richest blessings to you all, With Hope, Judy & Irish Downes, Michael's Grandparents.
