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.

Real or Americanized names???
traffic tickets, parking violations and jay walking are more profitable and safer and much much easier than chasing down bad guys.
Pics of the sickos are in the article. Quite a diverse group.
I’m trying to figure out what drugs they all are on. That is one motley looking crew. I’m actually shocked they pulled this off much less that child is alive.
These are the kind of people who have a meth lab explode on them in the trailer park.
Stay out of crowded places.
I wonder what cut the police get.
Is it 10% like The Big Guy?
If we’re all supposed to turn away when we see strange behavior near restrooms, the natural result will be more of this.
Mark Cuban, pick up the red phone…
Once found guilty, like them all up and execute them with a bullet to the back of the head.
Make an example that child traffickers will receive no quarter.
I'm guessing the security cameras show that she ditched her dad and left willingly.
It’s a very multicultural group of traffickers, except for the two male pimps. Maybe they work on affinities, white women lure white girls, and so on. There are black women, Hispanic women, mixed women, women with Asian eyes...
The white women are old, methed out and scary looking, so them taking a helpful and motherly role is hard to picture...
While it is possible that she went willingly, this is a probable 'grooming' operation that she was trapped into. After all, in spite of such luminaries as Nancy Pelosi advocating a voting age of 16, ages like these (15) are not known for clear thinking!
God Bless her and her family and bring them healing!
I saw. If there were ever a case for public profiling…
Note to self.
Stay out of Dallas.
Note to self, Texas enables trafficking..
Probably why Jorge Bush could be Governor
Let's get back to the old fashioned JUSTICE in America NOW!!
It would appear to me she was kidnapped by ‘democrats’.
