A Miranda Nye update
A few readers have contacted me wanting to know about Miranda Nye, the 12-year-old Milton-Freewater girl who appears to have run away from home around Thanksgiving and is still missing.
The unofficial word I got from the Umatilla County Sheriff’s Office last week is that they are still looking for her. There had apparently been a couple of false sightings, but nothing reliable.
I say unofficial, because I have not been able to reach the detective who was my original source. I really hope to have an “official” update next week from the sheriff, under-sheriff or detective sergeant working the case, but what I heard from dispatch and the dispatch sergeant is that she is still not home.
A couple of people also asked why an Amber Alert wasn’t utilized, and I believe those are only used in cases of abductions.

This is wrong that an AMBER ALERT was not issued.. Someone may have saw something, and pictures should be posted!! A 12 year old just doesn’t disappear into thin air… Something bad could or has happened to her… If I was the parents, I would be seeking an attorney…. A 12 year old can’t take care of herself… She is still a young child… Would they be doing the same thing if it was a 5 year old that ran away on her bike… This is very scary!!! More info should be out in the newspapers and tv.
Unfortunately there isn’t a whole lot to be done about this, as the first persons to be looked at are the parents, then siblings. She has two brothers, both of whom have done questionable things in their past, one of which was documented in the local newspaper. If something questionable has happened, the mother who is out of town cannot be reached, they then look to the father, then her brothers for answers!
Update: I got confirmation today that Miranda Nye was found, safe, at a home in College Place. There’s more information on union-bulletin.com.
yes but we have to give our name. email and account number so we can be traced to find out!
