National Center for Missing and Exploited Children

17 teen girls went missing in December including a Tyler teen who went missing in November.

There are 13 families looking for their teen daughter, granddaughter or niece right now.

It's news we do not like to tell you about but is necessary to bring the families some relief.

We don't know the reason these girls disappeared and it doesn't matter. 15 teen girls went missing in June in Texas.
