A Southern California mother rented a car this month and drove her 9-year-old daughter halfway to Nebraska.
Three days later she returned home alone, and has since refused to answer questions about the girl’s whereabouts.
Now, Ashlee Buzzard’s road trip has become the central focus of the FBI’s and Santa Barbara County Sheriff Office’s search for her missing daughter, Melodee.
Authorities believe Buzzard left the Lompoc area with her daughter on Oct. 7, drove to Nebraska and returned to her Vandenberg Village home on Oct. 10, passing through Kansas along the way. The three-day journey would have crossed around 3,000 miles and required around 48 hours of driving, according to Google Maps.
