'Missing' investigates small town girl's journey from cheerleader to sex-trafficked 'hostage'

NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- In the new episode of "Missing," Eyewitness News investigative reporter Kristin Thorne examines the disappearance of Corinna Paige Slusser, who went from small-town Pennsylvania cheerleader to sex-trafficked "hostage" in New York City, where she vanished almost half a decade ago.

According to police, someone reported seeing Slusser leaving the Haven Motel on Woodhaven Boulevard in Rego Park, Queens early one September morning in 2017. She has never been seen again.

This is the story of a heartbroken mother's determined search for her daughter, along the way confronting dangerous pimps, mysterious extortion attempts, and confounding clues on social media in her quest for answers.

Is Slusser still alive, trapped in a sex-trafficking nightmare? Her mother, Sabina Tuorto, is hoping this investigation will help her find out what happened to her daughter.
