TL;DR Summary

Investigative documents reveal that a 14-year-old girl who went missing for weeks was found in the barracks room of a junior Marine at Camp Pendleton. The documents indicate that the girl had been at the base for only about 24 hours and had likely met the Marine on the dating app Tinder. The Marine admitted to having sexual contact with the girl, who had lied about her age. Investigators are looking into claims of human trafficking but have found no evidence to support them so far. The Marine was taken into custody for questioning but has not been charged. The girl's family alleges that she was a victim of human trafficking and accuses the military of a cover-up.
