Missing Freshman's Car Found
(CBS)
Police in Richmond, Va., say there's no sign of a college freshman who has been missing for two weeks. Over the weekend, however, police found her car, which they call an important break in the case.
Taylor Behl, 17, was "the manager for the boy's basketball team for four years, and the boys all called her 'Mom,' " says her mother, Janet Pelasara.
But, Julie Chen, happy memories of Behl growing up in Europe and Virginia have been replaced with a mother's haunting questions about her daughter.
"We do know that she had dinner with a friend, another VCU (Virginia Commonwealth University) student at the Village Café," Pelasara says. "We do know that she was at her dorm room around 10:20."
Behl is described as having been eager to make new friends, and her Web site asked that they be kind.
Her father, Matt Behl, says Taylor "was mature for her age. Perhaps, in hindsight, to her own detriment."
Chen says that months ago, on Taylor's first visit to VCU, she had entered another — possibly much darker — world.
"She came to look at the campus, to see if it was the kind of place that she'd want to go," friend Mike Cino says.
She met a 38-year-old man, a friend's roommate, who took pictures of her and posted them on his provocative Web site, Chen says.
