Maybe she wanted to be in Fayette County, ln which case she wasn't "missing" if she was where she wanted to be.

highly doubtful, i don't know too many people who actually WANT to be in fayette county, but you are right, she is an adult and can go wherever she wants. they err on the side of caution these days because of abductions and such, people who disappear because they want to are only labeled as "missing" by those who think they can say where that person should be. it's a strange, imperfect system, but it is understandable given the high crime rates these days. however, if she wanted to stay "missing," she also could have told the authorities that she was where she wanted to be, and if she was not breaking any laws by doing so, they could just let her be. i don't know how this area handles that, fayette county would be a little weirded-out by someone deliberately deciding to come here for some legal purpose. i'd rather be anywhere but here.
