North Carolina girl Madalina Cojocari missing for one year: 'Not going to stop until we find her'
Fox News
Cornelius Police Chief David Baucom discusses the disappearance of North Carolina girl Madalina Cojocari, who was last seen getting off a school bus Nov. 21, 2022.
Madalina Cojocari's mother and stepfather, Diana Cojocari and Christopher Palmiter, did not report the 11-year-old girl missing to police until weeks later on Dec. 15, 2022, despite telling police the last time they saw their daughter was at home the evening of Nov. 23, 2022.

Baucom, who hosted a town meeting to remember Madalina Tuesday, said the weeks-long delay in reporting Madalina's disappearance initially hindered his department's investigation.
