If she is alive she's most likely a prostitute, if not she is dead.

That's what my hubby says, she's either fish food or has already met the Sultan of Brunei.

BTW, my mother would have no more allowed me to go to Aruba on a senior trip, chaperoned or not, than she would have allowed me to fly to the moon. What's with these people? And the chaperones on this trip have to be rethinking their rules.

I'm sure this will put a crimp in the local senior trips for a while, resurrecting the local destinations. What's wrong with New Orleans and Orlando anyway?

Aruba?

My senior class went to Omaha! The class after mine GOT to go all the way to Kansas City to "enjoy" the stockyards!

Same here and I agreed. We both thought the same thing. It's the PROFILE - naive, attractive, young etc..

There is NO WAY in hell that I could have gone on that when younger. The "everyone else is going" wouldn't cut either. Stupid parents make stupid kids. Chaperons? LOL! WHERE WERE THEY when this girl needed them? Drinking too?

You just have to be careful where ever you go - and especially a place like Aruba in the CARIBBEAN. It's a very sad situation. All the money in the world won't bring her back ... .

Been to Orlando and New Orleans. Downtown in either town is not a good place to be after midnight. Or before midnight, for that matter.

I agree with your husband.
My first thought when I heard this- White slavery. Shipped off to some third world country. Isn't she the second this happened to there? First was never found.

New Orleans? Born and raised here, wouldn't go downtown for ANYTHING. It's much worse than even 10 years ago. I consider walking the Vieux Carre at night suicidal. Teens are too trusting- think it's all a big party. Trust me, there are loads of people waiting to take advantage of the 'out for fun' types here. I'd steer all tourists- especially teens and college type girls- elsewhere.
