Missing Kickapoo High School Senior
26 09 2007I was coming back from my morning exercise when I ran into a mother who is frantically looking for her child. She disappeared five days ago and outside of an e-mail to her mother and call to her father in Tennessee there has been no contact. She refuses to say where she is and what she is doing.
Here is the information that I have on her.
Name: Ashley Adams
Description: 5′ 8 1/2″, 190 lbs., dark reddish brown hair, blue eyes
Age: 17
Her MySpace page is www.myspace.com/indycoltsbabe_17 and although it’s private, it does have one public photo
.
The frustrating part of this is that because she is 17, she cannot be brought home by the police. She’s considered an adult under Missouri law. Sure, she can’t vote…or buy cigarettes…or sign a contract to rent an apartment…but she can run away and live on the streets! I’m not a fan of that law…I don’t know many seventeen year old girls that are ready to live on the streets alone without their parents. (Yes, I know there are some but the overwhelming majority are not.)
If you have seen Ashley or know of her whereabouts, contact her mother Glizabeth Peacock at 227-0782. (She gave me permission to post that number.) Springfield Police are also looking for Ashley but if they find her they can’t do anything other than tell her mother they found her.
And Ashley…if you read this…your mother loves you and wants you to come home. She said there was nothing that you have done that would stop her from loving you and wanting the best for you.

I’ll be hoping and praying that she returns home soon, unharmed. I feel for her mother and father. Please go home, Ashley.
Have there been any updates on this? There hasn’t even been anything in the news.
I checked this morning with our office manager and she said she hasn’t heard any new news. I was hoping that one of the local TV stations would cover it but so far nothing’s been done on it.
