http://www.newschannel5.com/Global/story.asp?S=11540012 Little Clues In Decade Old Missing Woman Case Posted: Nov 19, 2009 4:52 PM EST Video Gallery Little Clues In Decade Old Missing Woman Case 2:34 By Nicole Ferguson NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A decade after a Nashville woman went missing, there are still little clues as to what happened to the young mother. Laresha Walker has not been seen or heard from since the evening of November 18, 1999. The 23-year-old dropped off her then 2-year-old son Rayvon at her sister's home. She told her family she was heading to Murfreesboro the next morning to get her maroon 1988 Oldsmobile Achieva checked out. That night, a neighbor reported hearing Walker argue with someone outside her townhome, which was in a neighborhood off Ben Allen Road. The next day, Walker never came back for her son. "She would always call like early in the morning, and when she didn't call that was kind of like ‘hmm, she didn't call me and she was supposed to bring some diapers back,’” said Walker's sister Lakesha Chambers. On the evening of Nov. 19, Chambers said she went to Walker's home to look for her, but all she found was her sister's radio blasting. "It was so loud. It was so loud," said Chambers. In 2009, Walker's son is 12-years-old, a basketball player who strongly resembles his mother. "I feel like he was cheated because he didn't get a chance to know her," said Walker's younger sister Cimeaka Patton. Metro police said they suspect foul play, and are treating the case as a homicide investigation despite no body ever being located. "It's really hard. It's really hard to have to live everyday without knowing," said Chambers. "Not knowing is the hardest part and this child [Rayvon] needs closure." The case has gone cold.
