TN TN - SLP, 14, Madisonville, Monroe County, 13 Jan 2019

[margarita25]

Did I read correctly above that she had two cell phones? Also, is the FB above her only SM? Her page reads very mild for a kid her age in 2019. It’s refreshing but odd too, imo. The FBI jumping in has to mean something.

Yes, LE said in the PC she had one from where they used to live and one for where they live now (paraphrasing).

LE: “We’re not at liberty to name anybody at this point just because if it doesn’t pan out”

Reporter’s voice interjects:
“Abduction or Runaway?”

LE: (pause) “well, then, like I said I don’t wanna really say whether it was abduction or runaway at this point just in case (mumble) any of these suspects do pan out.”

—-

Notice “suspects” plural, as well as “two” other unnamed states.

 

[margarita25]

I wonder if there’s any chance that she was trying to get back to GA? Maybe she didn’t want to move and decided to try to run away back to where she lived. Just a theory. All jmo.

Her parents indicated that this is where she wants to be (horses) in PC:

You would think that police would want possible witnesses to know where this family lives. Since they're new to the area, a lot of people might not know. But we haven't even seen a physical address.

This sounds like they know a name they are not willing to publicize right now..

 

[jellybean96]

I am not convinced she was with her phone at the truck stop. Just because her phone was there doesn't mean she was there. It could have been placed of the bumper of a truck, and the driver never knowing.

Which MAY be related to the 2 other states they can’t mention, moo.

 

[Scrapper18]

Not sure what to think on this case. Sending prayers for the safe return of this young lady.

 

[margarita25]

Some initial questions I didn’t see covered, sorry if I missed anything:

1. As @PommyMommy mentioned, what items other than her phone have been determined to be missing?

2. Were there any signs of forced entry?

3. Does her home have one or two stories (basement, etc), and what part of the house is her bedroom located? I realize it’s not appropriate to post her address so if her aunt/uncle who is in here has some insight on that it would be appreciated.

Hoping for your niece’s safe return, @cts1214

So, we've got Kentucky, Tennessee, apparent ties to Georgia... and this is a guess, but NC seems to stand out within that region of states. Why would the FBI rule out a state right in the middle of things? That's my hunch as to what state is the one not mentioned.

Well, it is hard to guess what they are referring to. It could be the states beyond Kentucky on I-75 which would be Ohio and Michigan.

1. Nothing other than her phone unless I've missed something.

2. No signs that LE has shared or that have been reported in MSM. LE did say there were no signs of a struggle, but also that there was no indication she wanted to run away. Sheriff, family ask for helping in locating missing teen

3. Hopefully cts1214 can answer this. As far as I know, we have no information about the home.

MOO

It seems as though no matter what your place is in this event, the predominant overtone I see is befuddlement. I know that's how I feel, and I wish this case were getting more intense and wide-spread coverage than it is.

People still seem to look at it as a "typical" juvenile runaway, but everything I have learned about Savannah just flies in the face of that theory. In addition, if authorities are out of leads and turning to the public, then why are they withholding information and data that would typically be released in a press release?

Well, I shared as much as I could. I contacted the good people at The Truckers Missing Child Project The Truckers Missing Child Project on Facebook and they're a great help in so many of these situations. It's good that they are aware considering the highway routes that were reportedly taken. The flier that I made and posted to our page Locate The Missing this morning has reached about 2,000 Facebook shares, but it didn't quite reach any significant viral status. I have no idea what to make of it. As I said before, befuddlement.... This is one odd case. Something very strange is going on.

Thank you for your efforts and please don't be discouraged. Could you share her flyer on missing person pages for neighboring states or has that already been done?
MOO

I don't think this is just a regular run-away. One thing I am concerned about is depending on what description you see/hear, her hair color is either blonde or strawberry blonde. Im worried people will be looking for one thing and miss seeing her.

Something I am curious about - is her father that is in the video her biological father?

Good question. I assume he is, but I have no data to confirm either way. I was thinking about her hair color, too. All the photos' color balance was normal, but her hair may have been colored perhaps? All the reports simply said blond hair. Looking at her profile, I just assumed it was colored strawberry blond in the past. *shrugs*

 

[Port80]

Just a passing thought, but consider the Superbowl coming to Atlanta, GA, and the extensive sex trafficking that goes with it... Not that I see any sort of connection, but what if she did run away, and ended getting caught up in a ring against her will? Isn't it that most female juvenile runaways are encountered by an organization/individual of that sort within 24 hours? Often out of disparity, they get lured into a human trafficking ring. Granted, it's radical speculation, but any theory at this point I will guess at.

I spent just about all day focused mostly on that region. I covered nationwide, too, but most of my sharing was directed at the region where the FBI is supposedly searching, according to what I gather. If you want to share any of the fliers, please do so. As long as it has accurate data about the case, share away! That's our best plan of action we could take right now. There are several fliers out there to choose from.

MISSING: Tenn. deputies searching for 14-year-old who used to live in Gwinnett
Updated: Jan 26, 2019 - 2:36 PM

“Kevin Rowson, a spokesperson for the FBI field office in Atlanta, said Pruitt used to live in Lawrenceville.

"The girl lived in Lawrenceville, Ga. for many years before moving to Knoxville four weeks before she disappeared. So she has many contacts here from school friends, etc.," Rowson said.”

How does one help to bring this young girl home, safely? What actions (Thank you to all who are putting out/up her posters!) can be taken to bring in the right tip?

Does our LE have any idea what this is? Did she possibly 'sneak out', but then it became something more? Did they figure out what clothing/purses/bags/wallets/money/etc she might have taken?

Have they tracked down ALL possible CCTV from the area? Going back how far? Just on the off chance that unknown vehicles might have stalked young Savannah, if that's even in the realm of what we are dealing with here?

Please find her soon. Let her be safe. Savannah come home.

Does our LE have these 'organizations', under surveillance? And what do they use nowadays? SnapChat? Messenger?
