Families of missing Black and brown people are frustrated with 'Missing White Women Syndrome'

The parents of Jelani Day, Daniel Robinson and Keeshae Jacobs say their cases have not received the same attention as high-profile cases like Gabby Petito

Robinson, who lives in South Carolina, hired an independent investigator and assembled a volunteer search team when he says he felt the police weren't making progress in the investigation. He also says he failed to get the amount of media coverage he believed the case needed. The case was reported by the local media as early as July 9.

Robinson said he sympathizes with the family of Gabby Petito, whose remains were recovered Sunday after she disappeared while exploring parks in Wyoming prompting a highly publicized search.
