Wall Street legend warns “A strange day is coming”
Angel had been reported missing less than two days earlier — after officers found her 21-year-old mother, Ja'nya Murphy, dead inside their apartment in Wheeling.

According to investigators, Murphy had been strangled to death.

Angel, police said, was subsequently taken from the apartment by someone who fled in a maroon 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan bearing Illinois license plate FP139293.
