She was kidnapped a couple days ago from the Target parking lot........she's 18........this is where I live........and she went to my high school! I just saw coverage on the national news on it.......oh so sad!

No it's not "the" Target I go to, but it's about a 15-20 drive from my house......but it's near the area I grew up in and it's just sooooooo scary when it's soooo close to home.......the police are looking for a 20 yr old suspect that was seen entering Target after she did.
OMGOODNESS Megan, that is horrible. I just got chills when I read that. I just don't understand why this stuff happens. It is truly a parents WORST nightmare!!! I will be praying for her family...they must just be devastated!!!

I just saw this on the news today. That is absoultey terrible! And yeah I hear u Megan about it being way too close to home. It just puts everything that we hear in the news about abductions into perspective. It could be anyone...any one of us. How can we protect our kids in this day and age. This poor girl was abducted in pure daylight and killed....without anyone noticing anything. Thats so sad!!! Did the girl have any connection to the killer?
