In this episode of Cold and Missing, we’re telling the story of 15-year-old Yasmin Acree, a bright and ambitious honor student who vanished from her Chicago home in January of 2008. Despite clear signs of forced entry, police initially dismissed her disappearance as a runaway case—an assumption her loved ones fiercely dispute. As the investigation slowly unfolds, troubling details emerge about the adults in Yasmin’s life, systemic failures, and a disturbing connection to a known predator living just upstairs. Join Ali as she dives into this missing person case.
*** If you know anything about the disappearance of Yasmin Acree in January of 2008- or her whereabouts today- please call the Cook County Sheriff’s office at 773-674-9490 or the Chicago police department at 312-744-8266 ***
