Missing teen leaves online, cell phone trail

Jamie Delgado: The Mililani High student has not been seen by her family since March 7

Yesterday was Jamie Delgado's birthday, but she did not spend it with her family.

Jamie, 16, a Mililani High School sophomore, left home on March 7 and has not talked to her mother or been to school since.

Honolulu police detectives began a missing-persons investigation yesterday. An investigator said they are searching Jamie's computer records as they pursue her link with a 16-year-old Waianae youth who communicated with her online.

Her mother, Jacqueline Turner of Kaneohe, last saw Jamie at bedtime, about 11 p.m. March 7. Her stepfather, Dayle Turner, said they checked her cell phone activity and found that she received two calls from a pay phone at Windward City Shopping Center at about 11:30 that night.

When they got up the next morning, the girl was gone, said Turner.

Police initially logged her as a runaway. But after the parents found papers in which she described her Internet relationship with the youth, detectives opened a missing-persons case.

The teenager knew that her mother was scheduled for radiation treatment for cancer last week, Turner said. "For her not to call is very strange."

The Waianae boy is not at home, but his family has not reported him missing, Turner said.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Honolulu Police Department detective division at 529-3115.
