KENNEWICK -- Two months after Tiairra Garcia vanished, a community is still trying to track her down.

Pasco Police are focusing on leads. Problem is, they said, those leads are drying up.

Cops are still canvassing neighborhoods but have reeled back some too.

That's why Tiairra's mom said she's planning her own search party this weekend as well as a vigil to raise awareness.

Plus, Tiairra's friends ares sporting T-shirts at the fair, with her picture and numbers to call police with information.

"Somebody knows where she's at, somebody has to know where she's at and we're trying to find her," Guillermo Cardenas said, who grew up with Tiairra. "It's hard. It's really hard. Two months is a long time."

The four people accused of kidnapping Tiairra are in various stages of prosecution.

Ashone Hollinquest will be arraigned for her kidnapping in a couple weeks.

Another suspect, Marnicus Lockhard, still needs to be brought back to Franklin County. He's still in federal custody at a Wisconsin County Jail.

The two women accused of her kidnapping are in Franklin County jail.
