Search for Missing Indiana Girl
By Associated Press
Published: 06/26/2009

GARY, Ind. — Authorities are working around the clock to find Indiana 2-year-old Jada Justice, who was reported missing two weeks ago.

The girl was last seen June 16, when her 18-year-old cousin Eugelica Castillo left her in the car while she bought a gallon of milk at a gas station store in Gary, Ind., the Post Tribune reported.

Castillo was watching Justice since June 8 while her 27-year-old mother was on a trip, according to the newspaper. She was briefly held as a person if interest, but was released.

Police say, however, she and her 24-year-old boyfriend have not been cooperating with authorities, who wouldn't go into specifics.

"If I was responsible for someone else's child and she had disappeared while in my custody, I would have done everything and anything to help find them," Hobart Deputy Chief Jeff White told the Post Tribune. "Let's just say that has not been the case."

White told the newspaper local police and the FBI are working together to find the girl, but that time is not on their side.
