I'm pretty sure they gave HER race because SHE is the one who is missing. For the record, she has now been found and is home safe.

I think it's fascinating that the editors have decided to expunge all comments, both good and bad, related to David McKinley's headline story.

Most likely. But when it's your kid, your heart races with terror not knowing your child is ok. Sometimes when your young & in love you don't think past the moment & what your actions can do to your family.Unfortunately the girl is 16 & her BF is 20, in the laws eyes, he's in some trouble. Just a quick phone call telling her parents she's ok would at least lessen their anxiety.

Ok, she ran away with her boyfriend. It happens. I'm sure when they find this young man, they'll find the girl, all snuggled in for the winter.
