THE INDIFFERENCE: Black NY Grandmother Found Dead Weeks After Security Failed To Look

The The Grio reports:

When a Black grandmother vanished near a major international airport, law enforcement apparently couldn’t be bothered to check basic surveillance footage for nearly two weeks. Alisa Goods collapsed on day one in plain sight of cameras, yet officials dragged their feet while her family begged for answers.

Newly reviewed surveillance footage shows Alisa Goods falling down an embankment and later collapsing on the same day her family reported her missing to authorities. Despite her family desperately pleading for help, her body remained undiscovered near the Las Vegas airport for nearly two weeks until law enforcement finally bothered to review the tapes.

Systemic indifference to missing Black women strikes again, proving once more that law enforcement’s urgency depends entirely on who is missing. Her family deserved swift action, not two weeks of agonizing silence while camera footage sat unread.
