THE SEARCH FOR MACIN SMITH


Missing St. George teenager Macin Smith vanished from his family’s home more than 18 months ago.

Since then Gephardt Daily has provided comprehensive coverage of Macin’s disappearance, as well as the exhaustive grassroots efforts to bring the teenager home.

We promise to continue that effort for as long as needed and urge you to share these stories on social media.

Together, we can bring Macin home.
