GRANDMA FEARS MISSING TEEN HAILEY DUNN IS DEAD

IT HAS been 7 heartbreaking months and still, there is no sign of missing Texas teen Hailey Dunn. And now, her grandmother tells KCBD that she believes the cheerleader is likely dead--but says she's not giving up hope even as the possibility the little girl is found safe decreases.

Connie Jones said: “Imagine what hell is like—just imagine someone in your family missing and not knowing where she’s at."

Hailey was last seen on Dec. 27, 2010 at her mom's house by the mother's somewhat dodgy boyfriend, Shawn Adkins. He is considered the only suspect in the disappearance. He told cops she was going to spend the night at a friend's house: the pal had no knowledge and had not seen her. Now, a new effort is being made to find Hailey with a social media campaign. SEVEN MONTHS SINCE HAILEY DISAPPEARED

STILL NO ANSWERS IN HAILEY DUNN DISAPPEARANCE

IT HAS been five months of heartache for the family of Texas cheerleader Hailey Dunn. The 13-year-old was reported missing December 28, 2010 amid mysterious circumstances and while cops say they haven't thrown in the towel, things don't look great for finding Hailey alive.
Her grandmother Connie Jones said: "It seems like 5 years, it's just dragging on."
Police admit that leads are starting to dry up. Sheriff Patrick Toombs said: "A lot of people say it's a cold case and it's no longer investigated. But that's not
true."
So far, only one person of interest has been named in the disappearance: Hailey's mother's boyfriend, Shawn Adkins. Toombs added: "He's been described as a person of interest. That's what we'd call him as the primary person of interest in this case and that hasn't changed."
Cops found reams of kiddie porn and twisted bestiality material on Adkins' mother's home computer in Big Spring, Texas. So why no bust? Toombs said: "A lot of it has to do with the known people who use the computers and who used it at what time."
But grandma Connie Jones says the frustration from not having answers is devastating her family: "Everybody is hurting. Nobody knows what to say to people."
