But why in the world does it appear there was NO investigation after the two older ones both ran away? That is super unusual and someone should have been asking why. Poor Taryn. My heart is breaking.

I remember seeing a couple of notices when Tristan ran away last fall and while you never can tell for sure with LE, I formed the impression they thought he had abundant cause to leave.
 
Good god she was eight years old. She barely had enough time to dip her feet into the world. It's rare a case makes me cry just by reading about it and hearing press conferences but I'm watering up as I type. I hope the gods are shining down on the other children and that they are found safe and sound.
 
We can't use the name until LE releases it.
