The parents of missing I-U student Lauren Spierer have released a "New Year" message.
The Spierer family writes, "As the new year approaches we pray for answers and for Lauren's safe return, just one small miracle, we hope that you, the person who took Lauren, will finally have the courage to end this nightmare for our family. We are here waiting for answers."
Tomorrow marks 7 months since Lauren was last seen in Bloomington.
