Update On The Morgan Nick Disappearance. Content Warning.
It's June 9, 1995, in Alma, Arkansas. Six-year-old Morgan Nick is playing with her friends at the baseball diamond during her brother’s Little League game. Her mother, Colleen Nick, checks on her and everything seems fine. But when she checks again, Morgan is gone. Authorities are called, and they search the area, but there are no signs of Morgan. In 2008, Colleen Nick recalls, “I remember standing outside the fire station on the fourth day, and someone saying, ‘It’s only been four days.' I thought that was helpful at the time." Twenty-nine years have passed since Morgan disappeared. Authorities have collected tips, followed leads, released age-progressed photos of Morgan, and searched several properties. Colleen Nick has never lost hope of finding her daughter, saying, “I’ve always said that until someone can prove to me that Morgan is not coming home, I believe she will.”
