Very strange indeed.

Something is fishy.

I would think the family would be all over the TV begging for help from the community

The police and city officials would be on tv begging for help from the community

Where’s the Amber Alert??

How can TD be the only source of news pertaining to a 12 year old girl that went missing in the French Quarter 3 days ago??

My assumption is the police know this is some kind of family issue.
Only thing I can think of for there not being an all out push on finding her.
Strange indeed

Maybe, but the FBI is involved. I would not think they would be called in for some sort of runaway or domestic situation. Something is very fishy. Need to send up the OT sleuth bat signal.

What is odd is the girls Facebook. Her tagline is
"I have depression don't mess with me"

She then lists a city in California as residence and has a boyfriend there. She was said to have no phone with her, yet a kid with that many snaps and a fb has a phone. So likely dad took.it away rencently.

I would bet she ran away to California.

I also say the father is negligent thinking 12 is old enough for a kid to travel from the east to the quarter on a bus alone.

Google the dad's name "Thomas Welty" and you find him coming to the defense of some escort-type whore and commenting on his own live-in -- this guy keeps some seedy company:

Thomas WeltyMarch 9, 2014 at 9:13 AM

"This is Erica’s son’s father (Thomas Welty)and the one she is carrying now. Yes, Erica can be a Bitch but she will help you out any time she can. She is fighting a demon right now and for you you step on her name is not only talking bad to her but my son and I. As fare as I know Erica Gombash is hiv negative. I was tested 2 weeks ago wand was std free which includes HIV. Erica has more class in her one finger that most will ever have. She’s hanging with the worst people in New Orleans and there bringing her further and further down." LINK

How does this dude have custody of the 12yr old? Either the mom is a real shite show or he's Michael Corleone...

i keep reading this, but I guess hundreds of parents of 12 year olds every school day are negligent as well

I think it's a really bad move, but other people have different values, can't speak for them. Just seems like serving a softball up to the pervs of the world. Might not be on the bus 9 times out of 10, but it just takes one.

20 years ago as a 12 year old it wouldn't have been looked at odd at all... and crime was twice it is today....

Of course it all depends on maturity, but I know me and my two brothers at 12 were way more than capable of something like this. Most kids were heading home after school and would be there alone for several hours.

Well, 12-13 year old girls are inherently evil and are prone to finding trouble if they can.

She's almost 13 but she seems much older to me.

She answered a tag in May saying she's had 3 breakups and is in love with a kid (who she also tagged).

In April there was a quiz asking how sexy she is.

She had a phone for sure as of last March.

Based on her public posts and comments from family she seems to have a good relationship with them. I hope she just got mad at them and is hiding somewhere safe.

Updated just now. Still missing, father fears she's been kidnapped.

quote:

The father of a missing 12-year-old girl who was last spotted Thursday (Oct. 12) evening in the French Quarter said he fears his daughter has been kidnapped and he's fighting back tears as the search for her continues. Thomas Welty, 38, is asking anyone who may have see the girl, Priscilla Elizabeth Moreci, to contact the FBI. He said it's not like her not to reach out to him, noting that the girl's boyfriend in California has not heard from her, either. "It's very odd," he said, of the lack of contact. Welty said even if his daughter did not have her cellphone, she had her laptop and could have emailed him, like she has done in the past when she was without a phone. The FBI on Saturday sent New Orleans media outlets a flier with Morecei's photo and other information, seeking help from the public in locating her.
