I'm glad she's OK too. I suspected something like this from the begining, but withheld my opinion. HINT: Teenage girl who gets a tattoo from having some band member signing her arm is not a stable child. The probability of "runaway" goes up tremendously.
Oh, I think everybody at least had their suspicions of her being a runaway from the beginning. It was mostly her leaving all of her belongings including money and medication (along with some other odd things) that made it seem she was staying away longer than she had intended.
She left with a person that neither she, nor anyone anyone else she was with knew. The fact she went willingly, doesn't mean she was staying willingly and that is what had people on pins and needles. Besides, even if mohawk dood did her no harm, doesn't mean he didn't dump her off somewhere where she wasn't so lucky.
I have no doubt she has "issues" that need to be worked out, but having met her personally on a couple of occasions, I can say I've seen a lot worse. She's a good, smart kid. The teenage years are tough on a lot of us. Some handle it better than others and some get a little crazier than others. I'm just glad she will have a chance to work it out, whatever it is.
