"It's okay to cry," a crytic post stated from now missing and considered endangered, Lateche Norris. The 20-year-old has mysteriously disappeared after leaving home on November 5th to meet up with her boyfriend, Joseph "Joey" Smith. Smith had just left a rehab facility and was reportedly living on the streets in San Diego.
Lateche Norris made a phone call to her mom, Cheryl Walker from a stranger's phone, telling her mom that she had been in a fight with Joey and needed his cell phone number to contact him. Her mom is unsure why Lateche was not using her phone, or what the fight was about. She promised
her mom that she would call her back the next day. After not hearing back from her daughter a day later, Walker filed a missing persons report with the San Diego Police Department.
Cheryl Walker has told the media, that "she definitely would have called me back," explaining that her daughter wouldn't let more than a couple of days go by without talking with her. "Something is wrong," Walker told NBC Dateline, "now the days are just flying by with no word from her. And, we're terrified."
The 20-year-old's social media activity has all but ceased since November 5th. The last post was an odd, crytpic Facebook message, "It's okay to still cry over things u thought you moved past."
The couple have had a rocky relationship, Walker stated that there is a history of domestic violence incidents. Law Enforcement informs that the case is open and active, but they do not believe Lateche is considered "at-risk."
Lateche was last seen on November 4th at a 7-Eleven located at 222 Park Blvd, the evening before she called her mom.
Cheryl Walker and her husband, Amir have flown out to San Diego from their home in Indiana to search for Lateche. There have been no signs of her thus far.
