Their disappearance sparked a massive search.
Hundreds of Chicago police, federal law enforcement officers and civilian volunteers spent days checking sewers, lagoons, abandoned buildings and factories. They also interviewed nearly 100 registered sex offenders living in the area.
But 20 years later, the girls are still gone. Today, Tionda would be 30-years-old and Diamond would be 23.
