"We've ensured that she is safe and that she is well. We've ensured that she did not suffer as a victim at the hands of that perpetrator, as did that little girl," Nye County sheriff's detective David Boruchowitz said on CBS News' The Early Show.
The younger girl still has not been found. The second girl is estimated to between 10 and 12 years old.
"We did confirm that she is a resident here, although, as far as we can tell, she has no ties to that little girl," Boruchowitz told co-anchor Harry Smith.
"It appears to be some kind of peep show" of the older girl, Boruchowitz said earlier.
Authorities are still searching for the younger girl and the man in the videotape.
"We have no idea where he's from, where she's from, and no idea who they are or where they are," Boruchowitz said earlier in the week.
The tape, a little longer than 30 minutes, clearly shows the adult man performing criminal sexual acts that Boruchowitz said included rape, "everything else, and then some."
"There is nothing in her eyes. It's like her soul has been taken, her spirit has been taken," Sheriff Tony DeMeo said. "We want to find this girl. I know everybody else out there wants to find this girl."

Elizabeth Smart was found nine months later, and her kidnappers arrested. Smart hopes this little girl will be found, too.
"I know that somebody out there knows where she is or something about her and can help identify her," he told Smith. "And it's just critical that we find her."
The older girl did not appear to have been sexually abused on the tape and the footage appeared to have been shot from a different room, Boruchowitz said.
Investigators are also examining whether the two segments were filmed with the same video camera, he said.
A 26-year-old Pahrump man, Darren Tuck, surrendered the tape to Nye County sheriff's investigators Sept. 8, after another man reported seeing it, Boruchowitz said.
Tuck told detectives he found the videotape in the desert outside Pahrump more than five months ago, although Boruchowitz said the tape didn't appear to have been exposed to weather or elements.
Boruchowitz said investigators don't think Tuck made the tape. Tuck was arrested Sept. 19 on charges of promoting child pornography and possession of child pornography, felonies. The top charge carries a possible sentence of up to life in prison.
Tuck was released without bail, pending arraignment Nov. 26 in Pahrump Justice Court, a court official said.
"Right now, my understanding is he's cooperating with the district attorney's office," Boruchowitz said on The Early Show. "At the time of the investigation, he chose not to talk with us any further once he gave us his initial story."
Pahrump is a small town 60 miles west of Las Vegas.

STOP: Sexual Predators (Start Telling Other People)
Tell your children to watch out for each other. Older brothers and sisters need to watch out for their younger relatives. - Reply to this comment
- I think it is terrible. However, we have got to seek ways to prevent this from continuing to happen. Each time a child is abused, there is a possibility that they could become an abuser as well. The cycle continues. I would like to see congress dedicate some funding to healing those victims and a major media campaign. God gave me STOP: Sexual Predators (Start Telling Other People). Everyone get involved and tell about this shameful secret, expose the demon. I also support life in prison or a stiffer penalty when found guility.

- I honestly believe if we continue on this path we will be our own destructors. And if Americans don''t come together to preserve our familes and our way of life before there is nothing left, it will be too late for our children and grandchildren. And I honestly believe there is only one person who can restore family values, honesty, diginity and respect and that is Ron Paul. All of this madness that has been created in society must come to an end, or else we will! http://www.ronpaul2008.com

- First, what crazy judge let this guy out on bail so he could disappear and go right back to work?
Our court system and judges are a joke. They just set the dangerous free to prey on us.
With a lot of talk about worthless rehab that only makes money for worthless therapists and psychiatrists that have no clue as to how to cure these people.
Second, where were the parents? How did no one notice this child was missing? - Reply to this comment

- laney2015 the girl most likely is not missing most likely her mother a drug addict and farmed her out to the man for cash and or drugs. It happened to a lady friend of mine in the 80''s the results are devastating. God PLEASE help us find this child. We need to kill this monster.
