Parents of missing teen: "Please help us find our baby"
Savannah's parents joined the Monroe County Sheriff's Office in asking for your help to find Savannah Leigh Pruitt, 14, who was last seen on Saturday, January 13th at 11 p.m. at her Madisonville home. Officials say her mother went into her room on the morning of Jan. 14 at 4:30 a.m. and she was not there.
There isn't a description of what she was wearing, but authorities think she may have traveled to Corbin, Ky. Her cell phone was last "pinged" in that area on the morning of Jan. 14 at 5:15 a.m. to 5:30 a.m.
Fillyaw says they reached out to the sheriff's office in Corbin, who then checked the area. The phone showed it was within a "relative" distance to the welcome center, just over the state line in Kentucky.
The sheriff's office says Savannah's phone has not been active since "that last ping", and she has not used her cell phone or presented herself on social media since then. Investigators say she had two phones, one from her old residence, in Georgia, and another she got when her family moved to Monroe County,
No one has any information on why she would be or could be in Kentucky, Fillyaw said, and they are not able to track her phone while it's off.
Fillyaw says the sheriff's office has reached out to all cell carriers and social media outlets to get a report on Savannah's phone activity. The report is an excess of "2,000 pages," which the sheriff's office says they have combed through along with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
"There has been nothing in any of that reporting that led us to believe that she intended to run away or was speaking with anybody that would try to abduct her," Fillyaw said. Savannah's case has not been upgraded to an endangered child's case because they do not have any information "as far as her being in any direct danger."
"There's some information that we are withholding at this time," Fillyaw said. "Just to maintain the integrity of the investigation...[just in case] it could possibly turn into some kind of prosecution."
