28-year-old Marilyn Niqui McCown from Dayton, Ohio, vanished on July 22, 2001. Everyone thought she was on a simple visit to the laundromat. They lived to regret that assumption. Niqui’s body or murderer has still not been found, but the family isn’t ready to give up. They built a bench at Glen Miller Park on July 22, 2021, to commemorate Niqui’s memory. Where did Niqui go?
A Life Worth Living
Niqui was a hard worker and made sure to give back to her community. She worked at the Montgomery Education and Pre-Release Center in Dayton, Ohio. She also took criminal justice courses in her free time. She was passionate and ambitious, determined to build a future she could be proud of. Little did she know that the future would be snatched away from her so soon.
