The Disappearance of Candace Parchment

Candace Parchment, a 15-year-old girl from a Jamaican family living in Georgia, vanished on April 28, 2010, leading to a shockwave in her community. She was known for her enthusiasm for writing, often documenting her thoughts and dreams in a diary. Friends and family quickly grew worried as weeks passed without any sign of her, and the police initially dismissed her disappearance as a typical runaway case, despite her lack of prior incidents. It wasn’t until months later that her remains were discovered in a wooded area near her home, amplifying questions about the police response and their assumptions regarding her case.
