Lateche Norris has been found safe, according to her mother, Cheryl Walker. She updated the GoFundMe account page on December 4th, stating:
She's safe!!! We're no longer asking for donations! The campaign will remain open for now those who wanted to donate to her of free will for anything she may need.
This is good news! With all of the not so good, and bad stuff, it's nice to hear something good.
Further, Lateche's stepfather, spoke publically for two hours on Sunday on a Twitter Spaces account hosted by @Nerdy_Addict. He stated, Norris "never knew she was missing,"
and "she is choosing to stay homeless."
On Friday, December 3rd around 8:30pm, Cheryl Walker received a text from her daughter. They then drove to the downtown library and reunited. Apparently, Lateche's boyfriend had smashed her phone after the couple got into an argument. The two have a toxic relationship according to the stepfather. The young couple plans to stay in San Diego for now. Lateche does not want to leave Joey, so she is going to stick with him and remain homeless.
The San Diego Police put out a statement on Saturday evening after speaking with Lateche Norris and her mother:
"Missing person Lateche Norris has been located. San Diego Police
Department investigators met with Norris in-person today and confirmed
she is safe. Detectives also verified Norris was not and is not the
victim of any crime. Ms. Norris thanked the public for their concern and
asked for privacy. The San Diego Police Department thanks its public
safety and community partners for their effort in locating Ms. Norris."
