Police: Charges unlikely in case of missing teenager

Southold Police do not anticipate filing any criminal charges in connection with the disappearance of Peconic teenager Ashley Murray, Police Chief Martin Flatley said Monday.
Police say they know where the teen was during her absence, but the chief declined to give the location.
“She was on the East End most of the time with friends who thought they were helping her,” he said. ”I’d like to think that anyone who helped her over that time was doing it for the right reason. Do I wish it had gone differently? Absolutely, but I don’t think there was any criminal intent.”
Ashley, 16, failed to show up at Southold High School Feb. 25 and she was gone 11 days before she and an adult friend showed up at town police headquarters in Peconic Friday afternoon.
The chief said Ashley spent only one night in the hospital after turning herself in and is now in the care of another family.
“When she was being interviewed it became evident she didn’t want to be home,” the chief added.
The police will conduct a few more interviews before closing out the case, he said.
