A letter from missing New Hampshire teenager Abigail Hernandez has given
new hope for resolution to the now two-month-long disappearance of the
15-year-old, who disappeared into thin air on her walk home from school
in the ski resort town of North Conway.
Such missives are rare in
missing person cases, the FBI says. While the letter has given the
agency – and volunteers who have scoured northern New Hampshire valleys
for signs of Abigail – a degree of hope and reassurance, agents say they
remain concerned for her safety.
"Though she could have left
willingly, someone now could be coercing her," said FBI special agent
Kieran Ramsey at a press conference. "Someone now may be manipulating
her."
RECOMMENDED: Crime falls in the US. Are you safer today?
Up
to 2.8 million American teenagers run away from home each year,
primarily because of problems at home, according to the National Runaway
Safeline. The latest FBI figures indicate that 661,593 people went
missing in 2012 – a slight decrease from 2011 – while the agency
resolved 659,514. About 37 percent of missing persons are juveniles, the
FBI says.
The US has seen a number missing women cases resolved
in recent years. One of the most dramatic was the release earlier this
year of three Cleveland women held captive for decades. The FBI cited
that case in reference to the Abigail disappearance, suggesting that, as
in the Cleveland case, she may not be far away from her home.
The
disappearance of Abigail shocked the rural ski resort town of North
Conway, where the per capita violent crime rate is half the New
Hampshire rate, which in turn is one of the lowest in the US. She was
wearing only light clothing and did not have a significant amount of
money when she disappeared.
The FBI did not share the contents of
the letter nor where it was posted. But the main search is concentrated
around New Hampshire.
The letter was written two weeks after
Abigail’s disappearance, but was not received by her mother for another
month. Apparently the letter went to a postal box, not the family’s home
mailbox, police said.
The FBI had kept mum about the letter as
agents worked to establish its authenticity and also to thwart copy cat
letters. But after days of rumors about the letter among volunteers in
and around North Conway, police held a press conference this week to
confirm its existence.
Local volunteers have utilized Facebook to urge people to be on the lookout, an effort that was redoubled on Friday.
“Please
note that people should be looking out for a new community member, a
person who seems out of place, or lost, or particularly secretive or
avoidant,” a Facebook page dedicated to finding Abigail read. “Don’t
give up helping in the search for Abby just because she made contact.
Until she is home, she is not safe.”
