Mom Of Missing Teen: 'She Needs Her Medication'

Three days after her daugher Ashley, 16, went missing on Monday, Charlotte Murray said Thursday morning that there has been no sign of the Peconic teen.

"Nothing," she said. "Not a word."

And, as the clock ticks, the anguished mom said she's desperately worried because her daughter left home without medication she needs to keep her anemia under control.

"She could pass out anywhere," she said. "That's our biggest concern."

The community, Murray said, has come out to help her through the dark days of worry, bringing food, calling, and staying with her so she does not face the uncertainty alone. 

But so far, she said, there has been no sign of her daughter. "There's been nothing," she said. "Nothing."

Meanwhile, friends and neighbors are working together to organize a search party.

According to the Facebook page "Ashley Come Home," the search party will meet on Thursday at Southold High School by the flag pole at 3 p.m.

Also on Wednesday afternoon, Southold Town police issued a missing person update on Ashley.

The release stated that police are continuing to search for Ashley, who was last seen at approximately 8 a.m. on Monday at her Spring Lane home in Peconic.

Ashley is described as a white female, approximatley 5'4" tall, weighing about 140 lbs. She has brown to redish brown hair, blue eyes and has a scar on her right wrist.

Southold police said they have received dozens of tips from the public and are currently following up on a number of leads.

Since news spread that 16-year-old Ashley went missing Monday morning, the North Fork community and caring residents across the East End and beyond have come together in an outpouring of concern and love, desperate to bring her home safely.

On Tuesday, friends created a Facebook page, "Ashley Come Home," filled with messages, photos, and shared information, gathered in the hope of helping to find her.

Hundreds of Facebook users have shared Ashley's photo and her story, working together to bring her home safely.

Ashley's mom, Charlotte Murray, said her daughter left a suicide note, which claimed she was upset with the world, mentioning a "watery grave" and a stranger "taking her to a deep abyss."

Murray said her daughter had been posting dark Facebook status updates, saying that she was "no longer afraid," and "was just going to do it."
