#ABCNews #Missing #SageSmith
I love Sage’s family. Her dad and Miss Cookie especially. I watched her Disappeared episode and just loved how her family fought for her. 💪
but the media will bend over backwards to look for a missing virginia girl but nothing on the missing trans chic/dude!!!and the media wants to label everbody else racist but they are the ones making the KLAN outfits!!!!
Sage should’ve stay deshad or whatever his name is.
So it’s a race thing?? 🙄
Her mom should have treated her better from the start so he never ended up in foster care as a child and then be able to accept housing with the roommates. If she was treated and raised right by the parents. She could have been still living at home. And maybe in less danger
To anyone reading this, hi. I come from a foreign country and this was in my recommended page. I saw this and remembered the George Floyd protests, they were even broadcast on our local tv stations. Why can't you also protest for this? I'm just asking. Please tell me. Anyone. I just can't seem to understand.
anyone here after kendall raes video
I cannot imagine🤦♀️ this poor mother..and family. My heart aches for them😢
Sage matters. DaShaud matters. I pray you all find closure soon, that is a horrid way to live😢
We need to do better as a society. End of Story.
No excuses…no explanations…no blame..just FIX IT.

This is quite an eye opener. 60% of the missing!? Wow! Clearly there something not right on this case, specifically. Obviously he did not just run away!
I don’t know if anyone has ever suggested this to the family but I was wondering if they’ve considered hiring an outside agency to assist with searching for Sage. There was a case here in Berkeley (Saint Louis), MO where after their daughter was missing for quite sometime they turned to a nonprofit group Texas Equusearch which turned out to be successful. https://m.facebook.com/WeWontForgetThem/posts/remains-were-found-in-february-and-positively-identified-as-monica-sykesupdatebr/1738662829481080/. Also, has the police tried tracing the cellphone pings for that timeframe for both the suspect and Sage?
They should be going on a manhunt to find the suspect! He can't hide if you let him!!!
WOW, THIS IS MY FIRST TIME EVER HEARING OF THIS CASE. SO SAD. AND HE IS GORGEOUS!
Not surprised!
INNOCENT WHITE GIRL…BLACK BOY IN DRAG???COME ON WHO WOULD YOU LOOK FOR😭😭😭😭
TRUE WE ALL ARE EQUAL?.?LOOK FOR YOUR CHILD YOURSELF…BE THE DETECTIVE😁😁😁😁
This isn't my first time hearing about this but I'm sure I found out about this in 2019.
Blk ppl are Supreme we don't know how special we are we need to harm ourselves n pay attention to our surrounding because we are the prey
I am so sorry to hear this…..I just shared it on my facebook page and I will continue to do so. This breaks my heart. Prayers for the family. TRULY!! #TRANSLIVESMATTERS #BLACKLIVESMATTER #BLACKTRANSLIVESMATTER
Reporter : "Black People make up 13% of the population". 😒.
How do people not realize how absolutely ridiculous that sounds. The logic not matched with a drop of intellect.
If they try and make us believe we are the minority, some of us subconsciously behave like we truly are minorities. Minorities- meaning less than. If an entire race are constantly being called "less than" by even reporters, no wonder no one shows up to search for a missing persons who's categorized as "less than". The world has been intentionally programmed to treat us like we're less than, through the media, and any outlet you can think of using terms like, minority, and only broadcasting t.v. shows and criminal acts on the news that display us in a constant negative light. When in actuality we're the majority, and have always been the majority.
Nobody checking for Gay and Black…Where's the LGBTQ community?
I LOVE YOU ALL. PRAISE GOD. GOD BLESS. AMEN
I pray they find him alive 🙏…
What is gender fluid??.
My heart goes out to sage & the family.its heartbreaking. I hope your baby comes home & soon. You are in my thoughts & prayers,xx
It's called SLAVERY, it still exists and it's still happening. People wake the F up!!!!
Being gay is very dangerous!! Praying he still alive
I think he was caught up in organ harvest or he was messing with down low nigga did something to him. I remembered he was meeting up wit a dude blind date
Wait a min, that math don’t added up! They saying we’re 13.4% of the nation and we make up over 60% in missing person? That sounds off!
This is my first time hearing about this story. 😥
This is insane!! Everyone is precious. Moms, start passing the word amongst other woman and us moms and grandmas will have your back. The police can’t put in the overtime we can and social media is powerful. I’m so sorry that African Americans are still being treated this way. God is watching you all; you will answer for your mean ways.
