The Missing: Chase Lackey last seen summer of 2017
CROSBY, Texas - The mystery of Chase Lackey started more than four years ago, and his family is still no closer to finding out the truth.
His mother Debbie Diaz says the last several years have felt like hell.
"At the very beginning, it was every time a body was found, you’re waiting to hear it if’s a male or a female and what’s the age group," she said.
