Missing New Jersey teen found
Girl disappeared Monday, text-messaged pleas
for help
From Ronni Berke CNN
NEW YORK (CNN) -- A 13-year-old New Jersey girl missing
since Monday was found Thursday in New York City, and
told police she had been raped.
Text messages had been sent Monday from the girl's
phone to her mother's cell phone pleading for help
after the girl vanished on her way to school.
The girl was being evaluated "mentally and physically,"
said Robert Troy, chief of police of the Jersey City Police
Department.
Missing since Monday, the girl called her parents
Thursday at 1 a.m. and told them she didn't know
where she was, but thought she was in Manhattan, her
father said.
A New York City cab driver then spoke to the parents
and took the girl to the hospital, her father said.
New York police said the girl told them she had been
raped.
Three men, two 19-year-olds and a 20-year-old, were
being questioned by Jersey City police.
The girl had met the 20-year-old at New Jersey's
Newport Mall and arranged to meet with him Monday,
Troy said.
The men acknowledged seeing the girl Monday, but
said they left her at 2:30 p.m., and don't know what
happened to her after that, police said.
They reported to the police station voluntarily for
questioning, Troy said.
State police, who assisted Jersey City police in culling
evidence from the girl's home computer, said
"she was visiting a lot of sites she shouldn't have
been visiting," Troy added.
Asked earlier whether the girl's alleged abduction may
have been a hoax, Troy said, "We really can't be
conclusive on what our opinion is at this point."
The text messages sent to the girl's mother's phone
said: "Mom help, I can only make one text message ...
he's gonna take my phone away," one read.
Others said, "Help mom, I'm scared and I don't know
where I am ... I know I'm in a house ... someone was
following me and I just don't remember what happened."
The girl's mother said she received the last text
message about 8 p.m. Monday. In it, the girl wrote
that she "was being taken to New York," Troy said.
Jersey City police said the New York City police will
question the girl because she said that two men in
New York had assaulted her.
She will then be taken to the juvenile division of the
Jersey City police for additional questioning, police
said.
Unfortunately teens take horrid risks.
I onlyhope this does not let people think
if a child is led astray she deserves to be
raped or killed!!!!!!!!
