Alyssa Taylor, a 25-year-old mother of two, went missing while on a road trip with her on again, off again boyfriend, Danny McNeil. Alyssa had gotten into an argument with her grandmother, went to her stepfather's home and from there called her boyfriend, a semi-truck driver, to see if she could go on the road with him for a couple of days to get away. The two started their journey down to North Carolina. One person perished along the way, while another remains missing.
