TEKENYA HAS BEEN FOUND!
Maybe we can all learn some lessons from this case. Had we not all banded together and put pressure on and given this little girl exposure, would the results have been the same?
Maybe we can save the world one little girl at a time!

DURHAM - A pregnant 12-year-old girl who had been missing since Saturday was found this morning in Durham, police said.
Durham police officers found Tekenya Wooten on Gordon Street at about 11:45 a.m. today, according to a news release. She appeared to be unharmed, according to the release.
Wooten was living in a Durham group home that operates as a residential and maternity child care facility. Investigators were treating her disappearance as a runaway case and did not trigger the state's Amber Alert program in this week's search.
I am glad Tekenya has been found safe! Thanks for sharing this, Delilah. You ask a good question...Could the results have been different, had not so many people banded together?
