It's because the mom is a cute, white young thang and her daughter is even cuter. Same goes for Natalee H., Laci Peterson, and Stacy Peterson. All young, cute and white, and really nothing incredibly noteworthy of their stories.

It shouldn't make any difference when a female is killed or disappears whether she's attractive or not, but it does. It triggers an emotional response in people, making them think, "She's so cute and looks so sweet! Who would ever want to hurt her? We've got to find her and find the guy that hurt her!" It's ALL that Nancy Grace covers!
