A heartbroken family is desperate to find a missing teenage girl who disappeared last week after she was spotted playing a high school soccer game with two “sketchy older men.”
Chloe Campbell, 14, disappeared on Sept. 30 after she was spotted at Boulder High School, in Colorado, while her family claimed she may have been trafficked to Arizona more than 600 miles away.
Boulder Police are now calling on anyone with information about the missing schoolgirl to come forward, saying she may be “in danger” despite initially dismissing the case as a “runaway.”
Her family is concerned for her well-being, with her mother, Dr Jessica Knape, confirming that her daughter had been unable to take her medication for her underlying health conditions.
dr. Knape and Chloe’s father, David Campbell, have hired a private investigator to help them locate their daughter, who may have been drunk when she was last seen.
Her family is concerned that she is being held against her will, and David claims that the only messages the family has received are from “third parties” of a Snapchat profile that “could be anyone.”

Her parents, Dr Jessica Knape and David Campbell, are both calling on anyone with information about their daughter to come forward
The teen’s family received a sinister photo from an anonymous Snapchat profile showing Chloe looking ‘injured and unwell’
He added that they were given an ominous photo from an anonymous source, which shows she is still alive, but said she looked “wounded and unwell.”
Several friends have reportedly received messages from the missing teen, but her parents say they came from social media accounts they don’t know about.
Her parents launched a desperate attempt to get their daughter home, putting up flyers in town while Boulder police didn’t come around to find her until eight days later.
In a statement, Dr. Knape: ‘Her whereabouts are still unknown to authorities or her family and we believe she is at high risk due to a number of factors.
“There are friends who say she may be with someone (or several people) who are men or older boys, who may be involved in drug trafficking and who have a violent criminal record.
“We think there may be other kids out there who know where she is or how to reach her, but they don’t share this information with the family or the police.
“There are indications that they are withholding information out of fear for their own safety.

Her mother described her as “lively and funny”, adding that they would use “every resource on the planet” to get her home safe and sound
Because Chloe’s case was initially labeled ‘runaway’ and not ‘missing’, law enforcement and school authorities have downplayed the critical nature of the case, sparking widespread fear.
“We are working with the authorities to give the case the correct name and in the meantime we have engaged a private investigator to continue investigating the tracks.”

“She was described by eyewitnesses as being with two men. Older men. Too old to be in high school. One of them was Asian and the other had a beard.
“This was around lunchtime at Boulder High and also a football game, these two men are described as sketchy.
“We’ve had multiple tips from various parties who claim to know that Chloe is in Arizona, that she’s ‘safe’ and ‘has money’ and is with a ‘family’ in Arizona.

“We want to make it clear that we have no relatives in Arizona, so this is very suspicious to us.
“The backlash we got from both Boulder High and the Boulder Police saying it’s okay, she’s just a runaway, was frustrating, but we never stopped investigating.”
Her mother described her as “lively and funny,” adding that they would use “every resource on the planet” to get her home safe and sound.
