'We don’t know where she’s at.'

She might be hiding behind the dangling preposition.

You think that's bad? My cousins used to say things like "Where at is it?"

But seriously... why point out the bad grammar on such a serious matter? I pray for the victim and the families of both. I hope they find this girl.

Indeed. Very poor construction.

Everyone knows it should be "We don't know where she be at"
