The Abduction of Vinyette Teague

On a hot summer night, a toddler is spending time with her grandmother and other neighbors on the breezeway of her high-rise apartment complex in Chicago. She is left alone in the busy hallway for just minutes, but in that time she disappears. Nearly fifty people were present at the time she was abducted, but nobody claims to have seen anything. Her mother has gone on to be a champion for not only her daughter, but other missing kids. Her hope is that her toddler was raised by another family who wanted a little girl, and that all of these years later they will find their way back to each other.
