"Did she say where she was the first time she went missing?"
Jovita Jones, Mother
"No ma'am, the police try to ask her where she slept and where she went, she claims to say that she slept in some house with a lot of dogs. I don't know miss, all I want is for who is appealing her to take her to the nearest police station or to contact me."
