Missing Georgia Girl Found in Ohio

Maria Gomez-Perez, a 12-year-old girl from Gainesville, Georgia, who had been missing for nearly two months, was found safe in Dover, Ohio, with 34-year-old Antonio Agustin. Authorities believe Maria communicated with Agustin and other adult males online, expressing her unhappiness at home and desire to leave. After Maria reached out to her father via a newly created Facebook account, investigators traced her location through the account's IP address. Law enforcement located her at a swimming pool and arrested Agustin, who is expected to face charges in both Georgia and Ohio. The case has prompted discussions about the dangers of online communication and the importance of monitoring children's internet activity. The community had rallied around Maria during her disappearance, offering support and a reward for her safe return.
