    Yeah and showed up 6 weeks later! I think there is more to this story then they are letting on! Why run away twice in 4 months?

    Hi all, can we just remember that there is a 16-year-old girl missing, and to limit speculation about her whereabouts or actions?

    Thanks,
    Emer

    The frequency of these “missing person” appeals is worrisome. The more we see them the less attention will be paid to them thus reducing their effectiveness. Could be me but seems there is a new one every other day?

    How could it not be known what she was wearing? What’s the subtext to this story?

    Not sure of the three exclamation marks significance.

    But even if nobody saw her, it’s four days later, has nobody thought of checking her wardrobe perhaps. Just a crazy thought.
