A missing California woman who was found alive Friday in a cattle ranching area after vanishing more than two weeks ago survived by eating a few bugs and drinking from a dirty cattle trough, authorities said. She told rescuers that she did not want to be found.

The former public elementary school teacher, Jamie Tull, was struggling with emotional issues and was last heard from on July 17 when she called her husband while she was driving and crashed into a ditch, authorities said.

Searchers found her emaciated, badly sunburned and lying in tall grass less than a mile (1.6 kilometers) away from the crash site near the tiny central California farming community of Le Grand, said Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke. Tull was weak but able to speak.

33-year-old Jamie Tull of Riverbank crashed her car in Le Grand earlier this week, she walked away from the scene and hasn't been seen since. Now the Modesto community is coming together to help find her and bring her home.

Hmm. It sounds like she has some serious psychological issues going on.

Either that or a Greene Weenie FINALLY walking the talk. That’s how all the warmists want us to live — bugs and ditch water. Mabe with a few twigs for desert and some thistle for,garnish.

A bi polar teacher off their medication. How lovely for our children.

I am empathetic, but that is not the role model you want for your children.

When in rural Montana ask for a “ditch” at any bar. (ditch water and whiskey)

That rightmost image of her looks a bit like Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman.
