Chicago Police said they want to make sure all evidence is preserved properly.
“We have teams working around the clock and detectives are making good progress in the case”, Guglielmi said.
Her mother said she had gone missing once before but she was found later that day in a nearby park.
Police were able to locate her early Tuesday after the girl’s mother approached Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson directly on Monday afternoon.
Detectives were immediately ordered to investigate and the department asked Facebook to remove the video.
After getting wind of the alarming video, cops began a search for the teen, who was ultimately found crying on a neighbor’s porch on Tuesday.
Since the attack people have threatened on Facebook that “they are going to get her” daughter and that neighborhood children have been laughing about the incident and ringing the family’s doorbell looking for the girl. On it, her mother believes the teen was being sexually assaulted.
The girl had been missing since Sunday.
The 15-year-old, who is now staying with relatives, has been subject to an online and in-person harassment campaign. “This is very disturbing”.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, the girl is a student at Lane College Prep High School, a selective enrollment magnet school. The company launched one of its largest advertising campaigns in history when it launched its “Go Live” campaign last October, and the company is also in talks to buy its own video shows, according to a Recode report.
Facebook specifically targets the gaming market with its streaming service expansion, noting that Facebook Live now supports streaming-focused apps like Open Broadcaster Software. But Blizzard’s client and Nvidia’s GeForce Experience both added Facebook streaming capabilities in the recent past and despite having a friends list full of gamers and PC enthusiasts, I haven’t seen anybody broadcasting games on the social network after the initial burst of novelty wore off.
NPR has not seen the video.
“I can’t stay here”. “I have other kids, too”. The images distressed Johnson, a father of two daughters, and he brought the woman inside to file a report.
He further continued that as the Superintendent watched the video, he looked visibly upset over its content and as well on the fact that at least 40 people watched the video live but none called the authorities, the spokesperson continued.
