DURHAM, N.C. — On the day North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper declared Missing Person's Awareness Day, the State Bureau of Investigation teamed up with RTI International to host an event to offer new tools for families of the missing.
One family drove three hours from Charlotte to be there.
Jordan Smith was last seen in Concord in April 2021. Since that time, her family has been looking for answers.
"She was at my house on April the 6th of 2021 which was the week of Easter," her mother, Tracie Barbee, said.
Barbee knew something was up when Smith went quiet online.
