AMBER Alert: The Murder of Amber Creek
RENEE DUCKWORTH
Amber Gail Creek, who preferred to be called ‘Aimee’, was born on July 2, 1982 in Park Ridge, Cook County, Illinois. Her parents had lived together for just two years and had never married by the time that they each went their separate ways. Amber lived with her mother, Elizabeth Mowers, in the village of Lake Zurich, a north-western residential suburb of Chicago, until she was six years old. This was far from a happy home. Her mother was a cocaine addict who would often use in front of her daughter. Amber also divulged that a man had sexually abused her whilst she was under her mother’s care. The Illinois Department of Children and Family Services stepped in and Amber’s father Robert Creek was awarded sole custody of his daughter.

I don't remember her missing school because she ran away, or talking about an awful home life.’
However, within six months all of that would change. As she entered her freshman year of high school, Amber sunk into a deep and crippling depression. Seeking some kind of temporary relief from her despair, she turned to drugs and alcohol. ‘She didn’t want to deal with it,’ Robert Creek later said. She would act out by repeatedly running away from home for brief stints or by sneaking out of the house at night to meet older boys. Her cousin, Desiree Reeves, recalls ‘She told me she was in the woods with a few boys. I remember asking her, Why? Why do you sneak out?
I was scared for her. I
