The
15-year-old went missing from her West Side home Jan. 15, 2008. She was an
honor student at Austin Polytech High School and never made her bed the day she
went missing, something her family said was unusual.
What
became a bigger issue in the girl’s disappearance was a padlock that was cut
off the home’s basement door, the police leaving it behind and her immediate
classification as a runaway, according to relatives.
Three
days after the girl was reported missing, the police collected the broken lock
and dusted it for fingerprints.
Anyone
with information about Yasmin Acree’s disappearance is urged to call the Rev.
Ira Acree at 773-378-3300 or Area 5 Detective Division at 312-746-8365.
