Jennifer Cornwell - Mom, Prosecutor, Anthony Pasquale - Dad

"County Prosecutor Sean Dalton stood with her parents Jennifer Cornwell & Anthony Pasquale and said law enforcement has spoken to 75 friends and family. Dalton also said that investigators are looking at records of every registered sex offender in the area and they are looking at surveillance video from around town".

"Autumn sent a text message at 2:30PM on Saturday afternoon to her parents but Dalton did not disclose its contents or where it was sent from. Earlier reports indicated a cell tower in neighboring Williamstown was the last to detect her phone’s signal."

"He said there is no specific person of interest in the case. “We haven’t ruled out any theory as to whether this is a runaway or abduction. We’re continuing to track down leads,” said Dalton."

"Investigators have interviewed all the registered sex offenders living in the area and are searching the areas near their homes."

"Volunteer and law enforcement searches are taking place on the ground and in the air led by the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office, the FBI Clayton Police and State Police. More than 100 law enforcement personnel from 18 agencies are now involved in the search."

"Dalton said 50 county and local law enforcement officers were on the case shortly after she was reported missing."

"By Monday, the number grew fourfold as FBI and state police got involved in a search that has employed helicopters, horses, bloodhounds and computer experts. The computer experts were charged with seeing if any information about her whereabouts shows up on Facebook or elsewhere online."

"Early Monday, prosecutors' office spokesman Bernie Weisenfeld said the girl's bike had not been found. By the afternoon, Dalton would not say whether it had been located."

"Family of missing Clayton girl stops search for the night - 6:03 PM
Instead, the family would like the public to gather near the municipal building for a prayer vigil at 8:00 p.m."

**just a general observation - They probably are have checked cell tower sites to see exactly where the last "ping" was to give them some general idea. Way too many law enforcement officers and agencies concentrating their searches in the area (too many hours have passed in my opinion. Lets hope this is a runaway case, but my gut is saying no!***
