Has this child been found? She's not listed in any of the databases which includes the state's missing kids clearing house. I will be more than happy to list her on our system but I need more information (standard info that gets reported) before I can post. Thanks.

"A relative of Cosey found the front door to the home unlocked and Shemika's belongings were still inside. A cousin suspected she had just left the residence and would return soon. There was no evidence of foul play and it is believed she left voluntarily. Police said all their leads are exhausted."

BOTLOF · Jan 13, 2009

Thanks for the flier info. Shemika is now listed in our database.

There are two dates gone missing listed:

Sunday 12/28/08 around 1:30 am and Monday 12/29/08 around 1:00 am ---- which date is it, Sunday or Monday?

Thanks,
Soulscape

Kat · Jan 15, 2009

Any updates? I can't find her in the news.

PrayersForMaura · Jan 16, 2009

It's a shame this case is getting no media coverage

There was a vigil held on Jan 7.
Police seem to think she's a runaway who left willingly and they are not trying to find her.

Soul she was last seen (12/28) at 1:35am which would have been 12/29/08 -- I guess the confusion is because it was in the wee hours of the morning after midnight.

the women who runs this site did an astrological reading on Shemika. I know it has to be taken with a boulder of salt but for those who may be interested in this approach I thought I would post.

That was interesting gaia227. I have read some of her blogs before and she does differ in interpretation from our own WS astrologers on the case they had both drawn up charts for...the Anthony case.

It was interesting though very much so!

Mothers of missing children plead for help together

Snipped:

But it is also what Paula Cosey goes through. Her 16-year-old, Shemika, was staying at her cousin's house in December 2008, when she disappeared.

"I don't know if she walked out on her own or if she was snatched out the house or just don't know," she said.

Interesting that Berkeley is also the St. Louis suburb Kelly Allen vanished from in 2008. It is also very close to the area from which Phoenix Coldon vanished from in 2011. I live in the St. Louis Metro area, and I have long believed someone (or more than person) is preying on young black women locally. JMO.

I so agree, I have been watching this for awhile...I briefly lived in St.Louis, and I have many friends there,because I graduated from SEMO, in Cape Girardeau,Mo,
