Elizabeth Olten
The body of a 9-year-old Missouri girl who vanished walking home from a friend's house was found in a heavily wooded area Friday.
An "older juvenile" suspect led authorities to Elizabeth Olten's body, deep in the woods near where an exhaustive search for the child was under way for much of the day.
Elizabeth disappeared just after she started walking home from a friend's house Wednesday night.
The other juvenile is being identified as a "person of interest," though police have said little more about the person.
White said Elizabeth spoke with her parents on the phone before she left her friend's house.
"Her parents said she should leave and get home," he told Fox.
About 70 investigators worked on leads Friday and another 70 people spent the day scouring woody, uneven terrain west of Jefferson City, Mo.
