Scott Roberts
This one is a tough one for me because Scott was a good friend of mine. This past July 2, 2023, marked the 8th anniversary of his murder and it's still unsolved.
Back in 2015, Scott was shot multiple times in his home on the 1800 block of Garland Street in Texarkana, Arkansas. He was found the next day by a family member when they couldn't reach him by phone. You can see more information at TXKToday. There is still a $10,000 reward for anyone who has information that leads to an arrest. Anyone with information on this murder is asked to contact the Texarkana Arkansas Police at (903)798-3154 or Crime Stoppers at 903-793-STOP
Latoya Grissom
Back in September of 2007, 25-year-old Latoya Grissom walked out of her grandmother's apartment on Allen Lane in Texarkana. She was seen getting into a small dark-colored car and she was never seen again..
Police believe she was murdered shortly after she got into that car but her body was never found. Detective Cliff Harris is asking anyone who might know something - anything - about Latoya's disappearance to reach out to him. Even the seemingly smallest and most insignificant piece of information might be just what he needs to be able to solve this case. Please call us at (903) 798-3116 if you think you can help.

Lisa Eubanks
Lisa Eubanks is listed as missing, but I felt she needed to be included in this list because she was last seen on January 15, 1999. Lisa's left eyebrow is pierced and her ears are pierced multiple times. She would be 42 now.
According to Charleyproject.org,
Lisa lived with her mother and stepfather in Texarkana, Texas. She received a telephone call from a male friend at approximately 12:30 AM on January 15, 1999. Someone in a vehicle came and picked her up at 1:30 AM. Lisa got in the car and was never seen again. Her parents assumed she had left with a friend and would be back shortly. If you know anything please call the Bowie County Sheriff's Department (903) 798-3149
