Washington Teen Found Safe in Michigan with 30-Year-Old Sex Offender
A 14-year-old Washington girl who had been missing for nearly a month was found in Michigan with a 30-year-old man named "Keith," who is a sex offender. The Mount Vernon Police Department tracked down the suspect by investigating ride-share service history and found that he had ordered a ride for the teenager. The girl's parents were relieved, and there is probable cause to charge the suspect with second-degree kidnapping for transporting the girl across state lines. The suspect is facing charges of first-degree criminal sexual assault, failure to register as a sex offender, and contributing to delinquency with children in Michigan, and kidnapping in Washington.
