ORLANDO, Fla. -- Detectives on Wednesday released a photograph they hope will help them identify a girl seen in a series of sexually explicit pictures that were taken at a Walt Disney World hotel and other locations and have circulated over the Internet for the past three years.
The newly released photo is of another girl who investigators do not believe was sexually exploited.
But the backgrounds of the images of the two girls have enough similarities, including furniture and exercise equipment, that detectives believe they may have been in the same place at the same time, said Sgt. Matt Irwin, a sheriff's detective.
The second girl's image was included in a collage found on the Internet that included the sexually exploited girl, who detectives believe has been sexually abused almost daily for the past several years and has appeared in 200 explicit photos.
Orange County Sheriff Kevin Beary said the photo was being released "in hopes that if a citizen can identify her, it will greatly increase the chances of successfully identifying the perpetrator and recovering the victim."
Detectives do not know who the girls are or where they live, but they believe one of the images of the sexually exploited girl was taken at a Walt Disney World hotel several years ago, when she appeared to be about 9.
"Our hearts go out to the victim and her loved ones as we do everything we can to support law enforcement in its investigation," Disney spokeswoman Kim Prunty said in a statement.
The image made public Wednesday shows a grade-school-age girl with black bangs, a lime-colored halter top and cut-off blue jeans. She is seen holding a pink electronic game.
Authorities are offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the girl, who was described as a material witness.
Child-porn investigators in Toronto discovered the pictures of the abused girl on the Internet and released some of them after digitally removing the victim in hopes of determining where the photos were taken. Clues from some of the photos suggest she may live in the northeastern United States or southeast Canada.
Ride baby RIDE!!! :-)

Looking at your blog now! Great bug!!! I'm going to have to show this to Myranda. She LOVES bugs!!!
Thanks for condolences. I am *so* glad because I know that I know where he is now. It took many years to get to that point and I know that he was specifically one of those that God brought me into ministry for.
It looks like it could be a Polly Pocket toy.

Those clothes. They have some sort of bead trim. I do not much about kid's clothes. I am an OLD, old man. However, is that a current style or maybe from a couple of years ago????
I noticed that too. My first thought was that she's Moroccan
I'm so glad he had that nailed down...it's hard, but at least it's not forever.
Ha! You'd not only have to break the motorcycle in, you'd have to teach me how to ride it so I don't break something else! Namely my neck! LOL!!
I'm off to bed. Tell Myranda hello for me. Good seeing you!
Jeepers... Thanks for the ping...
Hmmmm. Good point. The logo/name/intials may not even be in the Roman Alphabet.
We're citizens here. Let's change the laws and insist these creepy lowlifes get the death penalty. It might or might not stop them all, but it will stop the one put to death. And that one death might save hundreds of children. What are we waiting for? Gotta start somewhere.
I don't think it is a Barbie logo (google pictures for "Barbie Logo")
yep...I think you're right. For some reason I had it in my mind that the logo was purple and the background was pink.
It sure has me stumped as to what it is. It might not even be a childs toy.
Bumping the thread.
OFF topic PROP PING (sorry, but this is important)
