It’s news stories like this that make me truly frightened for our future.
Meet Eleia Nunez, age 12, of Stockton California.
She went missing from her home two days ago. Despite the police and fire departments search via helicopter, patrols and tracking dogs, her disappearance remained a mystery until tonight.
From the news reports tonight, she is thankfully home safe and sound.
She was found wandering around a neighborhood 3 miles from home. Seems she leaned over the fence in her backyard, fell over it, and “became disoriented and lost.”
In her neighbor’s yard.
But wait! There’s more!
She managed to walk out of her neighbor’s yard, and down her own street and around her own neighborhood. Lost.
Then she kept wandering around. Past businesses, houses, pedestrians and motorists. Presumably during the 34 hours she was gone, she passed cops and firefighters, cabs, and an assortment of potentially helpful faces.
She slept outside in 30 degree weather, picked oranges off someone’s tree for nourishment, and finally flagged down some woman today to use her cell phone.
This girl isn’t 4. She’s 12. Are there no pay phones anywhere in the city of Stockton? Could she not have knocked on ANY door and explained that she was lost?
Either her story is full of shit, or she is destined to die in a horrible “making toast in the shower” incident in the near future.
