America's Missing Thursday July 12, 2001 While that 24-year-old intern from Modesto, California may be the most high profile missing person, she is of course not the only one. It's hard to believe but there are almost 100,000 people missing in this country right now.

Amy Bradley. Molly Bish. Moriah Lassard. Their faces aren't as familiar as Chandra’s, but each of these young girls has also vanished leaving behind families desperate for answers.

Becky Lassard's 27-year-old daughter Moriah is also from Modesto, California. She was last seen leaving her home a month ago. Investigating officer Christy Beffa says so far there are no suspects. She says, “I try to give them hope. Basically they need hope.”

Magi Bish's hope hasn't run out. After a torturous year her 16-year-old daughter Molly disappeared from a secluded Massachusetts pond where she was a lifeguard. Magi says, “You can lose your keys you can lose glasses, but how do you lose your child?”

And 23-year-old Amy Bradley was last seen by her father on the balcony of a cruise ship five months ago. In the absence of facts, Amy's mother Iva searches for an explanation. “I believe somebody saw her and wanted her. And took her off of that ship.”

Heartbreaking stories that warrant coverage says Anne O'Neil of People magazine, which included some of these lesser-known cases in this week's cover story.

She says, “I think if people see these stories and know something, hear something, it may be an opportunity to help these families out.”

A reminder that somebody somewhere knows something and even one seemingly insignificant clue could bring a young woman home to her worried family.
