"runaways can be pretty "invisible" when they don't want to be found." PracticalMagick

And there's that noble "snitches get stitches" culture we keep paying to propagate.

Just plain common sense- I am not sure what your comment about President Obama/ VP Bden has to do with this story. Do you not have confidence in our PRESIDENT to care wnough about humanity, that if there WAS something they could do to prevent things like this from happening, they would. Do you have a solution to PREVENT crimes?

Not sure what to think about the 14 y/o, but if the 15 y/o is a runaway, her parents or guardians probably did call the authorities, but runaways can be pretty "invisible" when they don't want to be found.

robbyh - Something tells me they were not held against their will, these young girls won't to act like adults until the law gets involved. Still he should have known better.

They sound like potential runaways that got caught up in sex trade prostitution. These young women often live in bad living environments and end up putting their trust in the wrong people. It's not necessarily kids wanting to be grown, but having nowhere to turn to and unable to find stability in their lives.

It doesn't sound like either of the girls were there "against their will". At 14 and 15, they obviously made a conscious decision that they wanted to be there. It's an appartment, not a dungeun and the guy obviously had to sleep sometime. That doesn't make it any less illegal for him to take advantage of them but whatever they both ran away from, probably isn't much better.

Easy: the guardian was getting something out of it too.

It's sad when a parent(s) cares so little for the children they bring into this world. The cyle continues with every generation becoming more violent and perverted.

I'd like to know "the rest of the story..." regarding the parents of the girls. Thank goodness for the responsible foster parent taking action which eventually led the LEOs to the 15 yo girl in the house.
