one breaking report says she has been found safe. i hope so!
“There have been some fairly recent sightings and I think she is still in the area,” Rachel’s father Tom Wilkerson told News 4 in a live interview.
“One of my neighbors thought they saw her run into a field and didn’t think much of it until they came back and saw police.”
Wilkerson told News 4 that there have been two sightings since and he thinks his adopted daughter is just scared.
“I don’t think she has been grabbed. She left on her own accord with the dog I don’t think there is any foul play unless someone picked her up while she was out there.”
Wilkerson said that he and his wife adopted Rachel and her brothers three years ago. Rachel has challenges related to Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and he feels her actions could be related to her condition.
At first, Tom Wilkerson says he thought that Rachel might be hiding, possibly upset that her brother had ridden her new pony.
“We were looking for her down in the woods, we have four acres, and we thought she was playing a joke on her brothers,” Wilkerson said. “When the dog came home without her that is when I got really scared and called police.”
edit...i'm glad this was a short thread.
