Missing Student May Have Been Porn Star
ABC News ^ | Nov 28, 2007 | ROXANA HEGEMAN

Posted on 11/28/2007 4:25:16 PM PST by lionstar

A missing Kansas college student believed to be the victim of foul play led a double life as an Internet porn star by the name of Zoey Zane, a friend told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

A young woman resembling 18-year-old Emily Sander appears nude in photos posted on a Zoey Zane Web site.

"She enjoyed it. She is a young teenage girl and she wanted to be in the movies and enjoyed movies. She needed the extra money," said Nikki Watson, a close friend of Sander's at Butler Community College. "Nobody in El Dorado knew besides her close friends."

Police said they are aware of the Web site. But police investigator Chad Young would not confirm whether Sander is Zoey Zane and would not say whether the site was connected in any way to her disappearance.

Sander was last seen leaving a bar Friday in El Dorado, about 30 miles from Wichita, with a man identified as Israel Mireles, 24, authorities said. Sander and Mireles met that night at the bar, according to Watson.

Joe Terziu, owner of an Italian restaurant where Mireles worked, told The Wichita Eagle that he saw blood on a bed and carpet in the motel room where Mireles had been staying. Police have not confirmed the account.

A nationwide manhunt was under way for Mireles and his 16-year-old girlfriend. A rental car he had been driving turned up Tuesday in Texas.

Sander recently signed a contract for the pornographic work on the Web site, and told her parents about it on Thanksgiving, Watson said. Her boyfriend broke up with her because he did not approve, Watson said.

"Prostitute murdered in cheap motel" is worthy of ABC News' attention?

Okay, why?

He and little girlfriend are probably already back in Mexico. Bet her parents still haven’t bought a clue.

Sander's grandmother, Shirley Sander, said: "What you are telling me now is things we have never been told or heard. I don't know what to say. We have never heard anything like this and truthfully I don't believe it."

Denial is not a river in Egypt. Sad how some people live two very different lives and how heartbreaking it is when the truth comes out after a death. I feel badly for the grandmother of this young girl with exceedingly POOR morals and judgment (usually go hand in hand).

What an old fashioned down-home thanksgiving that must have been.

Because it's not a bondage website?

Surf the web, she is there with her morals, for all to see. A little late for parenting at this juncture.

They're gonna put me in the movies...
They're gonna make a big star out of me
We'll make a film about a man who's sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally...

Shape of her right eyebrow is one problem.

Because she was 18 and 18 is old enough for her to sign a contract to work in porn. Not old enough for her to drink a beer. She's waaaaay too young for that!!! But to work in porn? No problem.

Exactly. Usually cause and effect aren’t quite so close together. “Mom & Dad, I’m a porn star.” Less than a week later she’s dead. Good lesson right there. Live a trashy life, end up in the trash. Just happened a lot quicker here.

Too bad Norman Rockwell wasn’t alive and around to paint this lovely
little get-together!
