MANSFIELD -- The father of a teenager reported missing Dec. 28 said he will never look at another missing child depicted on a poster in a grocery store in the same way.
Hailey Dunn's father, Clinton Dunn, made the 225-mile trip east to Mansfield from Colorado City to tell supporters of an anti-human-trafficking group that authorities wasted a week while they investigated his daughter's disappearance as if she had run away.
Traffick911 held the anti-trafficking rally Sunday after postponing an event the day before Super Bowl XLV.
Billie Dunn, the missing 13-year-old girl's mother, was also scheduled to speak at the rally. But she canceled after reports that more than 100,000 pornographic images had been found on a computer seized by Mitchell County sheriff's officers at her ex-boyfriend's mother's house; hundreds more were on a memory stick found at the Dunn home.
The former boyfriend, Shawn Adkins, is the only suspect authorities have named, according to the Abilene Reporter-News. Some of the images that law enforcement personnel confiscated depict bestiality and child pornography, the newspaper reported.
"He was the last one to see my daughter alive, and that's why I think the police are spotlighting him," Clinton Dunn said. "I don't want to think he's guilty. If he's guilty, that means my daughter is probably dead, and I don't want to think like that." IN OTHERWORDS, MY STONED HEAD IS UP MY ASS
Dunn said he traveled to Mansfield to raise awareness about human trafficking and missing-children cases. Precious time was wasted as officers inexperienced in tracking missing children worked on his daughter's case, he said.
