Description

Elane Garcia,  unhappy in Evansville Indiana, moves to Texas. She tries to convince her oldest daughter, Andi Wagner, to move with her, but she decides to stay in Evansville.  The plan is for her to live with her grandparents,  making it possible for Wagner to be near her father and younger sister.
After the move to Texas,  Garcia and Andi keep in touch, often using Facetime, but Garcia says she starts seeing a change in her daughter. She seems tired all the time.    Garcia pushes for her daughter to move to Texas to live with her.  Wagner finally agrees.  Garcia is excited and apparently so is Wagner who tells her friends and family about her relocation plan.    
Two weeks before her mother is to arrive in Indiana to take her back to Texas, Andi Wagner goes to her grandparents’ house and packs a bag. Her younger sister, Alix Wagner, talks to her, but Andi Wagner doesn't volunteer much information about what she is doing, where she is going, or who she is with. Andi Wagner is only at the house for about 10 minutes, then leaves with a packed bag. 
When Elane Garcia tries for several days to reach Andi by phone and fails, they reach out to the Evansville Police department and file a "missing person" report on August 12.  
 Wagner is described as 5 foot six, 115 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes.  Andi has a mole near her upper lip and several tattoos. She has her mother’s name on her forearm, a small rocket on her left ankle and one  with Roman numerals.   She was last seen wearing an orange tank top and jeans.
