WASHINGTON — Family members of missing University of Virginia student Hannah Graham say the ongoing situation has been agonizing.
“This is every parent’s worst nightmare,” says John Graham, Hannah’s father.
Hannah Graham, 18, has been missing for more than a week.
The sophomore from Fairfax County disappeared on Sept. 13.
“We can’t find her, but somebody knows where she is,” says Charlottesville Police Chief Timothy Longo.
Investigators are very interested in talking to a man named Jesse Matthew.
Matthew was with Graham on the night of her disappearance. Police have already searched his apartment and car.
“Jesse Matthew was the last person she was seen with before she vanished off the face of the earth,” Longo said during a press conference Sunday.
According to Longo, Matthew went to the police department voluntarily over the weekend.
Matthew spoke with an attorney before speeding away from the area, dangerously and erratically, in his car, Longo says.
Matthew is now wanted on charges of reckless driving.
Meanwhile, hundreds of volunteers have been combing neighborhoods around Charlottesville, looking for Graham
“We need to find out what happened to Hannah and make sure that it doesn’t happen to anybody else,” says John Graham.
