I keep checking the MCPD newsfeed to see if they update that she's been located. This is insane to me that it's not all over WTOP, etc.

It's also astounding to me how many reports of missing teens there are on the MCPD website. Most appear to be found within a few days, so I assume that they are mad at their parents and crashing with friends or another relative.


Maybe it’s my Facebook algorithm but I see her all over my Facebook feed. I get a lot of the alerts but up until I read your post I thought it was a different picture of another girl that was missing around the same time. There are so many runaway kids that are found shortly after the notices go up that there is a fatigue and people, like me, I just assume they’ll come right back home.

In one of her mom's facebook post comments she mentions that the police asked her to hold off on engaging with the media.

She probably is a runaway.

If you have evidence to the contrary, then you should be taking it to police.

Bumping this because the family was on the 5:00 news yesterday. Their daughter is still missing after a MONTH. Parents believe that she was “groomed and lured” by an online predator. Which makes me think they do have a lead - yet no clue as to the girl’s whereabouts.
This entire situation seems impossible. How is it possible that nobody has seen her or knows anything ? If there were messages on her phone from an online predator, wouldn’t there be a way to get an ID or an address of this person?

Where were the parents in all of this? WOH or SAH parents?

If she left her phone at home, the police can go through it, including deleted stuff and search histories and hidden apps, etc, and get more information. Although she might have a burner phone. It is very odd that the police are not saying she was groomed and lured. At least they aren't saying it publicly.

The police aren’t saying anything. Only people providing information are the parents.

Her family must be so scared
