Texas authorities seek man in model's disappearance

Authorities in Texas have joined the search for a man wanted for questioning in the disappearance of an 18-year-old Kansas college student, who moonlighted as a model on an adult Web site.

Emily Sander (left), who previously attended high school in Bandera, disappeared over the weekend from El Dorado, Kan.

She was last seen Friday night with Israel Mireles, 24, a restaurant waiter with Texas ties, police said. The day after Sander vanished, police found a large amount of blood in Mireles' hotel room. Bedding was also missing.

Meanwhile, authorities say Mireles could be headed for Mexico, where he has family.

Texas Rangers have also been notified, according to this update by Staff writers Alex Branch and Bill Hanna.

I don't care if she did appear in a porn site, she didn't deserve to be killed for any reason.

So he kills an American citizen and heads to Mexico? How fitting. That seems to be the "norm", considering Mexico is a haven for crime and corruption. It used to be said jokingly, 'commit a crime and head to Mexico'. It's not so funny when US citizens' safety and lives are at stake. This girl was killed by a dishwasher, probably illegal, and he returns to his country where there is no death penalty.

Mexico is where the UNT student's killer fled to. But he was still captured. It just goes to show you the ignorance and heartlessness of killers. They do whatever they can to flee from their evil deeds.
