This week’s featured missing person is Fallon Chanel Granger, who was last seen in Inglewood, California on January 25, 2024. She was 33 at the time and is black, with brown eyes. Her hair was dyed blonde at the time of her disappearance. She is 5’4 and 130 pounds.
There isn’t a whole lot of info on her disappearance, but she’s considered to be at risk. If still alive, Fallon Granger would be 35 today.
So the FBI has added Sa’Wade Birdinground (or BirdInGround), a Native American girl who disappeared in 2024, to their “kidnappings and missing persons” page. And they put up three photos of her but all the photos are not the best quality, they’re blurry.
I was able to find much better versions of those photos just by using a quick Google search. I have no idea why the FBI is using such poor quality versions. Because it’s the FBI, those versions of the photos are going to be the most often distributed, the ones people are most likely to see. And the quality of the images is pretty bad.
If I, a civilian with zero training or credentials or access to nonpublic info, can find better photos, why didn’t the FBI find better ones? It just seems lazy to me.
I’ll be adding Sa’Wade in today’s update. She was only 13 when she disappeared from her home on a Native American reservation during the night. And she’s autistic and learning disabled, so very vulnerable. I hope she is okay, wherever she is, and that she calls home soon.
Happy Boxing Day to my readers from the UK.
