As cases like Gabby Petito's get national spotlight, Black and brown families with missing loved ones say their cases struggle to grab attention
David Robinson has been in Arizona for the last three months searching for his 24-year-old son Daniel Robinson who went missing after leaving a work site in the desert in his Jeep Renegade on June 23.
Robinson, who lives in South Carolina, hired an independent investigator and assembled a volunteer search team when he says he felt the police weren't making progress in the investigation. He also says he failed to get the amount of media coverage he believed the case needed. The case was reported by the local media as early as July 9.

Earlier this year, Minnesota's state legislature passed a bill authored by State Rep. Ruth Richardson that would create a Missing and Murdered African American Women and Girls Taskforce. Richardson said the group will be tasked with making recommendations for improving how the state handles cases of missing Black women and girls.
