i'm amazed at the resemblance of Haylee Dunn to the late Taylor Placker, also 13, murdererd in June 2 1/2 year ago with Skyla Whitacker. I keep wondering if there are pipelines to be walked through Colorado City, TX and Weleetka, or cattle auctions, something that would bring in a crowd of outsiders who know little towns in the region, some commonality that might give clues ??? Does anyone have a list of names and photos of missing girls around that age within, say, 150 mile radius that might point to a serial predator, assuming the girl wasn't taken by some local? Glad the Rangers were called into this one immediately. Keeping all concerned in my prayers.
