Family Fears Missing Woman Was Harmed

Friend Says Nailah Franklin Disappeared After Threatening Message From Ex-Boyfriend

(CBS) CHICAGO Family members are worried that a missing woman from the University Village neighborhood was the victim of foul play.

As CBS 2's Mai Martinez reports, police continue to ask for the assistance of the public in finding Nailah Franklin, 28, who disappeared earlier this week.

Franklin's sister went to the Harrison Area police headquarters Friday morning to talk to detectives about the case. She said detectives called her and asked her to come in, and also want information about Franklin's credit cards.

Franklin's family and friends say last week, she went to police about threatening phone calls she was receiving from a man she had once dated.

Franklin's friend Dana McClellan said the message contained the following: "Basically 'I could do harm to you. You haven't seen that side, of me but I do have a bad side and I could do harm to you.'"

Her family now fears that may have happened – particularly after she missed a crucial meeting with her boss Wednesday morning, which was out of character for her.

"The fact that she missed the meeting and the car's not there the phone goes directly to voice mail and the voice mail's full are all signs that something bad happened to Nailah," said her sister, Leila Franklin Acox.

When the company contacted Franklin's family earlier this week, Acox rushed to Nailah's condo in the 1500 block of South Sangamon Street to search and immediately noticed two computers were missing.

Her last contacts were three text messages Tuesday night, when she didn't answer her phone, claiming to be at dinner.

Franklin is 5-feet 2-inches, 115 pounds, with brown eyes and brown hair. Her car is a 2005 gray Chevy four-door Impala, license plate 1957855.

"This is someone who just had everything to live for; she was at the top of her game professionally; she bought two condos on her own as a single woman; she dotes on her niece, my daughter; she's just a person who is very connected with the people she cares about," Acox said. "This is so out of character."

If you have any information about the case, police ask that you call (312) 746-9259.

This is sad. It does make me wonder why I never see reports of missing black women on the national news... Not important I guess...

QUESTION: If her family had put up a reward for any info...you think it would get REAL notice?

Wow. That's so sad and scary. I hate thinking the worst, so I'm sincerely hoping that she is found safely. Have they questioned the ex?

you dont see it for the same reason you dont see 99.9% of blacks who go missing
it isn't news just like the girl being tortured in w.va has been spoken of a few times yet
i watched that white woman get tasered three times in a five minute period and that was only on one station
it isnt news just like thousands of missing black kids don't seem to be wporth an amber alert.

face it they dont care!

Her smile reminds me of Laci Peterson. How's that for irony.

All they can do is hope for the best, and prepare for the worse.

Never really thought about that until you said it...

whatcha mean nat holloway doesnt care about blacks?? She's missing, so how do we know this. I hope she's found as well, but she has plenty of exposure already.

Unfortunately the media, as a whole, has reduced our significance to video vixens. White women from every class are considered valuable but black women are at the bottom of the totem pole. The evening news will cover the white chick who was tasered outside of a bar but black women are concerned we are not considered "newsworthy".

It is not until WE START DEMANDING THAT THE MEDIA BEGIN TO COVER STORIES (IN DETAIL AND GIVE THE SAME COVERAGE THAT WAS GIVEN TO LACI PETERSON AND THE HOLLOWAY GIRL) LIKE THIS ONE THAT WE WILL EVER SEE ANY CHANGE.

oh goodness
lets not even talk about stepha henry,here we have a law student missing it wasnt worth the news,in the meantime they had searched for a missing pregnant white woman,found her dead and still she was the focus even after no more could be done,then nancy grace has stepha henry's mother on her show for two minutes
i give it to nancy that she is spotlighting these missing black girls,but she asked the mother,why are you going door to door looking for your daughter?
i was like HUH??????
newsflash!!!!!
because no one else will!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!
why was this girl missing for two weeks before she was on CNN
why were college kids executed and a week later its not even news
why did a little girl go missing from the foster system in florida and was not missed for a few years!!!!!!!!!!!!
why are they still talking about jean benet ramset every year but not asha degree??
lets not forget chandra levy who was having the affair with rep.gary condit
they had every cop and their mama out looking for her and she was ont he news every day endlessly
fact is,if the world trade center had not been attacked she would still be making headline news

face it,chandra levy,jean benet,natalie holloway,they are all household names
but stepha henry,and asha degree and countless others who dont have blue eyes and blond hair and the right last name
are simply not worthy of the medias attention.

its plain sad......

It's just SO unfair. We can't keep living this way. We are JUST as IMPORTANT. We have lives TOO. We do great things in the community TOO. We can be the 'all American girl next door' just as much as them. WTH?!
