Tamia Taylor still missing after week-long search

Police say Taylor got onboard a Memphis Riverboat Booze Cruise on September 9, but when it returned no one knew where she was.

Taylor was celebrating her 21st birthday with friends on the boat when it departed the dock at 11:30 p.m. A video taken of Tamia shows the party happening onboard the Island Queen Riverboat Cruise, the last time Tamia Taylor was seen.
