1. Is this two young kids in love or is something more sinister suspected?

Edited on Fri Nov-02-07 03:37 PM by Bonhomme Richard
she only knew the boy a week or so. Anyway, none of her friends have heard from her either and the state police are involved.

8. yikes -- this part wasn't on the flyer in the OP

"Megan has some very serious mental and emotional problems, and has not been taking medication prescribed to her. Kenton Dow was recently in a psychiatric unit, could be diabetic and may be dangerous. There have been some reports that he wanted to "kidnap someone" and Megan may be held against her will."

2. Could you provide a few more details?
Where the teen was last seen, if the police have been notified, if the child is potentially a danger to his/herself (sorry, can't see the pictures you provided from work, it's a red x)that sort of thing?
Also, you might want to post this in the applicable state forum and in the Lounge. (Lounge vibes are all good)

When our kidlet had a nasty manic episode and ran away from home, there was a lot of support in DU to help find her.

May the child be found soon.

It is bizarre that no one has heard from her for a few weeks. Even her closest friends.

13. Megan may be heading to Vermont according to this article:
ENOSBURG/MORRIS, CONN.: A 17-year-old Connecticut girl who has been missing since Saturday, Oct. 13, could be in or headed to Enosburg, according to her mother.

Megan Roberts, who has been living with her mother, Linda Richardson, in Morris, Conn., never showed up for work at a grocery store in Litchfield, Conn., and she hasn’t been heard from since.

“I’m really scared because I haven’t heard from her,” Richardson said Tuesday from her Connecticut home.

Megan is described as 5’1”, 100 pounds, with long, wavy, black hair with blonde roots. She may be wearing a long, green Army-issue trenchcoat and a black baseball cap, as well as a black half-of-a-heart necklace that reads “BEST FRI.”

Richardson believes her daughter struck out for a family camp in Enosburg Falls, owned by Richardson’s father.

“My map to Vermont is missing. I went to look for it, and I couldn’t find it,” she said. “We have gone up there for many years to visit. It’s an area she knows, and she would feel safe there.”

Some friends are going into the city for the marathon hoping they might see her.

Edited on Fri Nov-02-07 04:08 PM by slackmaster
Otherwise she won't be a runaway any more.

(I don't mean to be flippant, just pointing out the fact that she is only a few months short of being legally an adult.)

19. It's my understanding that legally they can't force her home but....
that doesn't ease their minds and there are circumstances here that can lead in many directions.

Edited on Fri Nov-02-07 05:21 PM by CraftyGal
There has been a thread started on the following forums:

This is a board that post information on both missing and murdered cases in the US, Canada and the UK.
http://dreamboyuk52.proboards60.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=kids2&thread=1194036185&page=1, also posted on the blog at http://www.unsolvedcanada.ca/index.php/topic,1135.0.html .

This is a board that posts information on both missing and murdered cases primarily in the US and Canada.
http://www.unsolvedcanada.ca/index.php/topic,1135.0.html

I am a member of both of these forums.

I have been in contact with Angela Ellis at the North America Missing Persons Network.
I also have a friend who is involved with the Doe Network.

I hope that this helps to get the word out.

Of course, I don't know why you're a member of those forums but in case it's because you have a friend or family member who's missing, here's a heartfelt :hug: .

Edited on Fri Nov-02-07 08:30 PM by Mike03
Did Megan meet Kenton online or did she meet him in person?

Does she have any history of using drugs?

Is Kenton's history available? What does his past look like? What is he experienced in, prior to his current occupations?

30. I'm back. Thanks for all your help.
I am overwhelmed with your kindness. Megan does have a history with drugs both prescribed and not. I don't think the boy was met on the internet and I read he was a "street performer" maybe juggling.
Once again thanks.

Here is the information about the guy from the web site:


Kenton Dow is described ass 5'8 or 9, about 170lbs, short brown hair, hazel eyes, light skin. He has several tattos including a swastica and 1908 on his back. He was last seen wearing black pants and a black suicidal tendancys hoody with an upsidedown pentagram on the back.


I hope they find her soon. The self professed "drifter" does not sound like a person to hang with.

My sense is that she'll come on home. It's rough out there, and busking for a living is a hard route.
