On Friday, San Antonio radio host Joe "Pags" Pagliarulo announced that his daughter had gone missing. On Saturday morning, he said that the search was over.

According to a Facebook video on his radio show's official website, his 16-year-old daughter Gabriela "Gabby" Pagliarulo and 29-year-old Christopher Lee Fretwell were found "near the border."
Pags didn't elaborate much on where exactly the two were found or the condition of his daughter, but he did say that she seemed healthy. He went on to thank the people that helped with the search in the Facebook video, which you can watch here

This was actually 14 hrs ago but I don’t know if it was spread here. I just did a search on twitter and found it.

It seems like he’s hosting a radio show there lol.

At first glance, it looks like a teenage girl has run off with a grown man who treats her like the 30 year old she pretends to be. Whatever, I’m glad the family has found her, and she’s okay. It’s very easy to meet up with the wrong kind of person online if you don’t know how to read people or how to just say ‘no’.

Among Mexican community, 16 is getting pretty old. That 29 year old, though, might be facing charges?

[lee martell]

He almost got her into Mexico. Chances are, they would never have seen her again.

That 29 year old, though, might be facing charges?

I saw in one article that he's going to be charged with "unlawful restraint." Not sure if there's going to be additional charges or not.

Thanks for the update!

That’s good news. I have a 16-year-old who does dumb things, too.

Hopefully they won’t need to charge him with rape.

Mexican girls are generally considered fair game by Mexican men after their Quinceañera when they turn 15.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I thought they all did.

I have a 16 year old son whose brain hasn’t started functioning yet.

Age of consent in Texas is 17.

He should be facing some serious charges and registry as a sex offender as well.

We've been through that a couple of times. Previous 16-year-old daughters didn't do as many dumb things as the current one, though.

Let him off with a slap on the wrist and a free “sex change operation”.

My daughter is 40 now and raising near teens herself. We laugh because one of our fondest memories is me saying to her one morning when she was about 13, “I don't know what you think happened last week, but I assure you nobody came and sucked daddy's and my brains out. We are not stupid, nor have we ever been. So whatever you think happened, that made us so dumb, it didn't! And I suggest you now look at yourself, because maybe it was your brains that have been sucked out!” She said she went to school that day saying over and over... “maybe it was your brains that were sucked out!” She dreads the day she needs to use that line with one or all of her kids but she has it fully prepared in her upcoming repertoire. We made it through those years, just as our parents did with us; with a lot of love and effort. I remember it being exhausting raising a teen aged girl but couldn't tell you why now :)

I figure it’s the universe getting back at me for what I was like as a teenager ... but I have four daughters, and my parents only had the one.

[Yaelle]

It’s amazing, isn’t it? How smart we parents are, absolutely able to solve any problem in the world, knowing everything, for about 12 years. Then suddenly we become so stupid. We remain stupid for about seven years, and then suddenly it is realized that we DO know some things after all! And we might become geniuses again ten years from then, for a short while. We end up dumb again though it seems, but at that point they tend to at least love the old dummies. :)

A fellow I worked with was raising his Granddaughter. When she hit 13 he said "her brain flipped over". As I had just gone through it with teenagers, I had to agree.

That is an apt description of teenagers.
