CHICAGO — Chicago residents are demanding answers after two missing women were found dead in their Southwest Side neighborhood in recent weeks -- and a teenager now appears to be missing.
"It's hard to believe and hard to comprehend that in the year 2023, we still find bodies of dead women and no answers," Little Village resident Selene Partida said during a press conference Wednesday held outside the area's Chicago Police Department detective division headquarters.
Last week, the body of 21-year-old Rosa Chacon was found after she went missing on Jan. 18, according to her family and the private detective they hired after growing frustrated with the police investigation. "Who did this? Why did they do this?" Chacon's older sister, Elizabeth Bello, said during Wednesday's press event."Regardless of her past, she is a human being. She is a person and we need justice."
The police spokesperson did not have access to missing person's reports and was unable to confirm if one had been filed for Azreya.
