Just yesterday I was channel surfing and I happened to find a story on AE about a mother on a search for a missing teenager who had dissapeared over 20 years ago. I had remembered the mother because her daughters case was profiled on UM(possibly around the 89-90 season)and what I remembered about the case was that the mother has suspected Amy was being passed around to motorcylce gangs for prositution. I know it sounds werid,but I know some of you faithfull UM watchers remember the case.

Well after 20 some odd years,she is still looking for her daughter. Joan Lunden(the host of the show)followed her to Europe while she went around pubs&bars,showing picutres of her daughter. I think there was a part of the segement of the UM broadcast where she got a tip from a US custom agent about Amy being in Europe,but this person later began harrassing the mother?I haven't seen the segment for a while,so my details are kind of sketchy. I also remember she had an informant who was apart of a biker gang,but it never lead to any evidence of her still alive or dead. Well at the end of the program the mother went to the informant house because his widow wanted to tell her what her husband had kept secrect all these years"death bed confession". The widow told her that Amy was at the bar that night,but she was drugged up,and she got loud with one of the gang members,which enraged the man so he "knocked her up a couple of times,and then they killed her. they didn't know where to leave the body at first,so they decided to throw her to the alegators in the everglades".

Well at the end of the segment,Joan talked to the host of Investigative Reports,and he had updated saying that the mother was suing the US agent for 5 million dollars for all the emotional abuse she endured during the cat and mouse chase he led her on. And another tip came from an elderly former biker gang memeber stating that he had taken Amy from the bar that night and drove her to Virgina where he had passed her to another biker gang,and he never saw her again.

All and all,Amy is most definetly deceased. But it was sad to see her mother still looking and hoping,and I'm glad the program helped her give her some sort of closure.

I know alot of you update on stories,so I'd figured I'd try it for once =D

That's so sad that she died, I saw that episode a few weeks ago and I thought there was a chance she would have still been alive.

It must have been so bad for the mother to have to go through all those years of wondering if her daughter was dead or alive.

Oh yes, I remember that case very well. Thanks for giving us that update, I wonder why UM never broadcast one.

Very depressing.
