 Lisa, with her daughter and son, were living on the 5400 block of Warrington Avenue in West Philadelphia with Lisa’s boyfried, Tyrone Henderson. It’s been reported that Lisa and Tyrone had a fight over money, somewhere outside their home. The witnesses to that fight were the last people to ever see her.
 
Lisa’s aunt says she wouldn’t just leave. “It’s not like her to abandon her mother and two children unless she’s unable to make contact,” she said. Lisa’s children are fine, and living with Lisa’s mother, Alonie Walton. Lisa’s daughter asks about her mother sometimes and her son walks past his mother’s picture at least 10 times a day.
 
According to reports, after the fight and Lisa’s disappearance, police never did more of an investigation than a cursory look. On the Nancy Grace program, Alonie told Nancy, “I told the police department about him. That took me a year and a half to get them to take the report at first. Then they brought him in for a half an hour of questioning and he told — I talked to the detective after that. And after he told her [the dectective] it wasn`t the truth, and I told her that. Then they brought him in for a polygraph like three months later. That came back inconclusive. So they haven`t been in touch with Tyrone since. I don`t think they even know where he is at the present time.”
 
Alonie says someone out there knows where she is. “Lisa didn`t have no enemy. Lisa was a friend to everybody and everybody that don`t know Lisa loved Lisa like we loved Lisa. You know? She just was a friendly, outgoing person. And she didn`t bother nobody. You know, and that`s why I know if anything happened to her, it had to be Tyrone because nobody else had any, no reason to want to hurt her.”

Do you know what happened to Lisa? Do you know where Lisa is?

    i am lisa mother and is very dissapointed in the LE of Phila PA. lisa will be missing 5 years on her 42 birthdsay in a few week. there has been no leads. it just seems that my child vanished from the face of the earth. to this day there has never been a crime scence investigation at the home where lisa was observed fighting with her boyfriend tyron henderson, tyrone has sold the house. qiut his job, and the LE in Phila. pa has no ideal where he is. this is a bad month for the family. i just wish they would stop letting her file stop collecting dusk and get out and do something, maybe if she was white more would have been done.

    Its always sad when anyone goes missing. I agree with Lisa’s mother that the home of the BF should have been investigated. What on earth were the Police thinking? You have a possible suspect (Tyrone) and you do nothing but a courtesy look of the home where she was last seen alive! I am a “white” female and I hope and pray that the police aren’t using the color of her skin as a reason for not pursuing her case. It shouldn’t matter what color your skin is!! Each case should be handled to the best of their ability. My thoughts and prayers are with this family.
