A teenager said she was drugged, sexually assaulted and trafficked after meeting a stranger on social media.
Ava vanished leaving no trace behind. Her mom said she went to Lynn Police begging for help. In the days that followed, she said Ava was brought to several hotels and a house along the way.

He added that parents should monitor online activity and make sure they know any relationships that they may be developing online and monitor those very closely.
