A 15-year-old Texas girl was rescued by police 10 days after she was kidnapped at a basketball game while using the bathroom, then trafficked by pedophiles.
The unidentified teenager's father raised the alarm shortly after she left to use the restroom and didn't return to her seat at a Dallas Maverick game in the American Airline Center on April 8.
The girl's family said they pleaded with Dallas police to investigate but the department failed to do so due to Texas Family Code Laws.
Those treat missing teenagers as runaways unless there is evidence of kidnapping. It is unclear if cops made any effort to track down surveillance footage of the girl's abduction, further details of which have yet to be shared.
The victim was only tracked down by Oklahoma City Police at an Extended Stay America Hotel after a counter-trafficking nonprofit found her nude pictures on a prostitution website.
'My heart breaks for the unimaginable things my daughter had to endure for the 11 days she was taken, and I am so glad she is safe as we work towards her recovery,' the girl's mother said in a statement.
Eight people have been arrested in connection to the crime, Fox News reported.
They were identified as Saniya Alexander, Melissa Wheeler, Chevaun Gibson, Kenneth Nelson, Sarah Hayes, Karen Gonzales, Thalia Gibson, and Steven Hill.
The girl's father immediately notified the stadium and security after the girl failed to return to her seat.
On the day of the abduction, she was seen leaving the arena with men. It is unclear why Dallas Police did not find probable cause of abduction. DailyMail.com has reached out to the department for comment.

We should probably suspend judgement until a more reliable news organ reports on it in that case.
Dead eyes
Every one of them
Why do you think she just pranced off with them and did not have a weapon jammed in her ribs? 🤦
No, someone needs to go with others, especially young women, into their 20s. Fifteen is still too young to go alone.
Yes, that rogue's gallery does represent the new, replacement electorate which is intended to guarantee the democRATS their hoped-for 1000 year reich.
As if THAT will happen.
“I don’t think we are getting the whole story. I would think its impossible to be abducted in a stadium full of people. I wonder if this girl has had issues before. Maybe was offered drugs if she went to their car outside, and then got abducted.”
I won’t rule that out, and neither should other FReepers. That is not blaming the victim that is stating a fact. Kids today do drugs and other things. IF this is what went down let us hope she learned her lesson. Either way I hope she signs up for a gun lessons soon.
The biggest mistake in the constitution is the prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment. With filth like this, that’s exactly what is needed. Rapid execution that is messy, loud, extremely painful and public.
Sometimes they threaten other family members. They easily could have been watching her. They have all sorts of methods to get kids to go willingly and not put up a fight.
Another great movie (savaged by liberal critics of course) is Rambo Last Blood. The plot mirrors this story and it also has a very satisfying ending.
Its stories like these that freak people out, that somehow their teenager is going to be abducted from a restroom. When we are not told the back story of an incident, everyone thinks it can happen to them. Was this a drug deal gone bad?
Its just like the monkey pox story. Unless you are gay and have sex with other men, then you will not get monkeypox. The media is hyping the monkey pox story to get everyone all alarmed, just like the media is hyping this story.
Did they ever say why she left the stadium?
The people involved deserve the death sentence. If crimes like this are not punished by the rightful authorities, vigilante justice will eventually be meted out.
I read elsewhere that it was one guy with a counterfeit ticket.
Accomplices were probably nearby in a car.
Who knows what the girl could have been told, that her dad had a heart attack, etc.
Any man who has been through this is my brother. It gets better, but it takes a very long time.
If you were an abductor, would you go to the hassle of abducting someone in a crowded stadium with a gun, with high likelihood of getting caught? Or would you just snatch someone off the street walking their dog?
I think its more dangerous to allow your child to walk their dog alone, than using a restroom in a crowded area.
So is the press not reporting this one to protect the sad sack NBA?
There is 4 criteria that must he met for an amber alert. It looks like all 4 were met. However there is a push to change the criteria to 3 criteria due to the abduction and death of Lily Peters. An Amber alert was not issued for Lily because no one saw her leave with anyone. She was reported missing when she did not arrive home.
Currently the 4 criteria is
1. Under 17
2. The law enforcement agency believes that the child is in imminent danger of serious bodily injury or death
3. There is enough descriptive information about the victim
4. A description of abductors or vehicle
Nah. Hang them with piano wire from a meat hook.
“The people involved deserve the death sentence. If crimes like this are not punished by the rightful authorities, vigilante justice will eventually be meted out.”
The libs long ago made this a no punishment society. They use lawfare and government to punish things that annoy them, but they let their pet criminals do what they want.
the thing that puzzles me the most about this... out of the MILLIONS of porn/smut websites, just how in the heck did they find her on one particular site??? how did they know where to look??
