Bradley sisters disappearance: Family gathers on anniversary of when girls went missing in Bronzeville

It has been 22 years since Diamond and Tionda Bradley went missing from their Bronzeville home. The three and 10-year-old girls simply vanished without a trace.

On Thursday, the family gathered as they continue to search for answers.

"It's the same hurt, the same hurt feelings as we did in 2001," said Great Aunt Sheliah Bradley-Smith.

There is a lot of hope with the case right now on the anniversary of the day the sisters went missing. Numerous leads have come in since the disappearance, but nothing like the recent lead about a woman in her 20s living in Houston.

"It’s been very hard, stressful and for this to come up, it really put a dent in it a little bit," said Tracey Bradley, the sisters’ mom.

Back in May, the woman came forward claiming she might be Diamond Bradley, with the same obvious scar on her head. The FBI has since started the process of checking DNA samples on the woman to see if she is in fact, Diamond Bradley.

"We're hoping that this is Diamond at the end of the day, but we're not going to fully be prepared that it is, and it’s not because at the end of the day, we still have one of my other nieces that's been missing," said April Jackson, the sisters’ Aunt.

Where Tionda Bradley is, remains a mystery.

The Texas woman has undergone cheek swabs and fingerprinting, but the Bradley family has been told results could take up to six months.
