This was posted on Damon Tuckers blog.
This makes me sick at my stomach and tears roll from my eyes.
Every parent needs to read this and be aware of what is happening here in our schools and our community. I was horrified to think this is going on here and how our police dept has handled this families case.
It is a heart breaking story of a families daughter, who was recruited in school by a gang and later kidnapped and drugged, raped. http://damontucker.com/2010/02/25/commen...s-in-hilo/
Prayers go out to this family and for Meghan while she goes through her rehabilitation.
Please Help spread the word, so that we can help save other children from the abuse, that Megan has had to endure at the hands of other teenagers.
Thanks to this family for sharing their story so that others know what is happening in our community.

That is truly heartbreaking news, thankfully she was found.

I read this disturbing article also. I hope someone posts the name of the person who was charged and sentenced in this case.

At 48 hours missing, friends hoping she would be alive began to look for her body. In the three days her appearance was transformed, her hair was cut and colored, her clothes discarded and replaced, and she lost 10 pounds. She returned to us addicted to over 15 different drugs.

Bullcrap !!!!

There is no way possible to lose 10 pounds and become addicted to that many drugs in 3 days.

I lost 11 pounds over one night with the flu. I bet some of those drugs could "help" her to lose weight pretty fast.

The 15 different drugs - that's questionable....

whats disturbing to me is i read the paper everyday and there was nothing about this horrible story. thank you damon and whalesong for making this known. this is something that should be out there, so people with teens know what is going on. and the "bad guys" once again get a slap on the hand...hawaii at its worst..[V]
