So far it's might have been lured away, it doesn't appear there's any evidence, just the fear that it's a possibility. One question, the article says she lives with her Dad and StepMom. Is her Mom still alive or in the picture? I'm thinking she might she have had a minor disagreement with her parents (at 14, not uncommon) and sought out her Mom?

Also, this article says the family stated she does not have a phone. If so, then how can calls to her "go straight to voicemail?"

Did she have a phone but did not take it where she went, perhaps?

Apparently there are some type messages.
Hoping for good news soon.

Saw this in People Magazine:
"No one's messages have been read. Every time we call, it goes straight to voicemail."
