Steff Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,145053,00.html Teen's Abduction Caught on Tape; $10,000 Reward for Info Friday, January 21, 2005 TYLER, Texas — A clerk abducted from a Wal-Mart (search) Supercenter was sought Friday by East Texas law officers who said a surveillance videotape showed a man lurking around the entrance before the victim was attacked as she tried to drive away from the store's parking lot. Megan Leann Holden (search), 19, of Henderson was reported missing Thursday morning when she did not return home from her shift. The FBI (search) has joined the investigation, police said. They said a $10,000 reward was offered for information leading to her location or to her abductor. Tyler police spokesman Don Martin said the tape shows a man wearing a long, dark coat and cap and carrying a duffel bag loitering around the front entrance to the store. "The surveillance tape then shows Megan getting into her truck and the suspect running up behind her and either hitting her or pushing her," he said. "Then the vehicle drives off." Martin, the Police Department's public information officer, said an East Texas Medical Center helicopter crew was searching the area for the 2002 pickup and officers were are also driving around the area. "We are actively pursuing leads and have teams out looking for her and the truck," he said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 This is my #1 fear now that I have a daughter. Big f***ing tough guy who wouldn't do JACK s*** to another guy for fear of getting his ass handed back to him on a plate. Coward.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreye Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 He shows up 800 miles away! What did he do with her? My theory: She had a gun ( Has anyone talked to the family?), she decided to not pull it out right away and waited until there were on the road, shot him and jumped out. But where is she now? In the desert? Was he not wounded too bad and was able to beat her up and leave her in a ditch. If I were them I'd have people driving every possible route between the two points.

Apparently it's 1200 miles now. The police are talking to the family but they haven't said anything about what they've told them. I like your theory.. but, in case no one noticed.. she was abducted Wednesday night. If she's in a ditch in the desert.. I can't imagine she's in good shape. Tex, MOS.. have you guys heard anything about this on the news down there the past day & 1/2...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, at first they were saying last night and then they updated it to Wed night. I guess the silver lining would be it's not too cold if she is indeed injured in a ditch.

He was a lot bigger and stronger than here and he has shown up at a hospital. I hope I'm wrong, but my gut instinct tells me otherwise.

Steff Posted January 21, 2005 Author Share Posted January 21, 2005 Per Gary Swindle, Tyler Texas Police. Speaking on CNN now: Her body was found 400 miles west from where she was abducted in Stanton, TX. She was found visible off the side of the highway. The MF'er apparently just tossed her out of the car. God.. this just pisses me off to no end! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
