GUILTY MO - Hailey Owens, 10, Springfield, 18 Feb 2014 #1

[Knox]

The one news story I read, said the neighbor saw what happened and tried to chase the truck down. While his wife called 911 and gave them the plate number. So, yes I would say LE knew who they were looking for, they ran the plate.

I am so angry. They are not going to be able to try him here in Greene County. I can't remember the last time a kid was kidnapped here and wasn't returned. I went out and looked but I didn't see him. I just am really angry and I hope he gets the worst thing available to him. I am sorry if people don't agree with me but I am glad we are a death penalty state. How dare he steal one of our kids out in broad day light? He doesn't deserve life.

So brazen to take a child in the middle of a day in a vehicle that you own. I don't think this will end well unfortunately.

First post here, hi!

There is a rso registered on the same street of the abduction, fits the description given of the suspect. I don't think I'm allowed to link it yet, but the Greene Co. Sheriff site has a list.

Hoping she is found safe!

People are asking about helping with the search on the PD's FB page. PD responded that they have plenty of help "searching the area in which she is believed to be".

Welcome, mrsobrien.

I THINK if the subject is an RSO he's fair game as per the regs here, because his info is already out there. If I'm wrong, hopefully a mod will chime in.

Registered Sex Offenders CAN be discussed. Especially one so close.
As long as you're not saying as an absolute that "he did it" until we know or otherwise being inappropriate with the information.
