Cardejah Hall
14 Years Old
Missing
February 14, 2008

Take a good look at this picture.

This is Cardejah Hall. She is just 14 years old. Her life has barely begun.

And right now Cardejah Hall is missing from her home in Taunton. 

The facts of this case are both troubling and alarming.

Cardejah was last seen on Valentine's Day, February 14th. Her grandfather told me she was kissed goodnight, and then the next morning, she was gone.

Now, Cardejah has run away before, but after a few days she came home. It is now more than seven months later and Cardejah is still missing.

The alarming part of this is that just before Cardejah went missing, she was texting an unknown man. That's right, a man.

Cardejah's grandfather told me he would occasionally have to take her cell phone away because she was texting complete strangers. At one point, a 24 year old man showed up at the house to see Cardejah.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children considers Cardejah an Endangered Runaway. She needs to get away from whatever situation she's in, and returned home.

Please take a good look at this young girl's picture.

If you recognize her, please call Taunton Police at (508) 824-7522.
You can also call the National Center at 1 800 THE LOST.

Thanks for your interest,

Bob Ward

Bob,

Pimps and predators have been preying on teenage runaway girls for decades. This is truly frightening. Whatever he issues are that cause her to run away, none of them are worth the mortal risk she is experiencing.

Phone calls and prayers to Diety...

As an aside, maybe you could double team with the investigative arm there and look into teenage runaways and prostitution...the predatory underbelly of teenage sex for hire. I know it's "your kinda story"...

Bob, I noticed you mentioned her grandfather several times; Was she under his care? It sounds to me she's a very troubled young lady. Very sad! I hope she turns up ok, but what are the odds of that happening? Is there any evidence that she is still alive?

Hi Chip: great ideas.

Kayleisnana: Yes this girl has had a tough childhood, but her grandparents adopted her and they love her very much. As you might imagine, they are out of their minds with worry.
