The naked body of a 13-year-old girl who went missing in Northern California last week has been found dumped in a park near her home.
Seventh-grader Genelle Conway-Allen was last seen by surveillance cameras getting off a bus after a day at Green Valley Middle School on Thursday afternoon.
A homeless man found her naked body in Fairfield, about five miles away from the bus stop, the following day. Police are now issuing an appeal for information.
Conway-Allen's aunt Natalie Paasch, 20, told the San Francisco Chronicle her niece was a 'troubled child." She had a hard life, and this is how it ends. It's tragic," she said. "She was always the one looking out for her family, even when her family wasn't looking out for her."
The homeless man who found the teen, 54-year-old Eric May, said "She looked like a mannequin. It hurts my soul to think someone could do that to a little girl. I'm haunted by the image of her laying there without a stitch of clothing."
May said he had been questioned by police but not detained.
Relatives told the Chronicle that the victim and her brother were abandoned by their father and had moved around foster homes for much of their childhoods.
