Florida girl, 12, steals dad’s car and takes 14-year-old friend to meet online predator

A 12-year-old Florida girl stole her father’s car and picked up her 14-year-old friend to meet an online predator in Louisiana, officials said this weekend.

Baby-faced Jade Gregory, of Union County, was reported missing last week after she hopped behind the wheel of her parent’s Ford Taurus, went to meet her pal, Khloe Larson, then drove out of state.

The two kids had apparently been corresponding with an unknown person online and planned to meet him in Louisiana, according to reports.

Their sudden disappearance triggered a Missing Child Alert, and their youthful images were flashed across billboards and television screens across several southern states.

Gregory drove her father’s truck all the way from the Gainesville area to Mobile, Alabama — a roughly five-hour trek.

Well, I'd like to know how a Ford Taurus morphed into a truck along the way.

I picked up on that but put it down as bad writing. What impressed me is that she could drive interstate at twelve years old. Has she been driving "getaway" cars since she was five?
