Just for the record, how many national stories about missing persons originated with kids missing from poor/minority families?

Can you even think of a single missing person story about a black child which made national news? You'd think black kids never went missing.
Not exactly a children's case but more along Kevin's line of example:

Latoya Figueroa vs Natalee Holloway and the lack of coverage that Figueroa received.
