Missing Kaylee Jones: No sign of Georgia teen 2 months after disappearance
Kaylee Jones, a 16-year-old Georgia girl with special needs, may have left her home on June 14 and has not been seen since
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}More than two months have passed since 16-year-old Kaylee Jones disappeared from her hometown in Georgia.
Jones, born Jillian Paige Temple, was last seen on June 14 in the area of Whooping Creek Church Road in New Carrollton, when her parents say she left out of her second-story window without her computer or phone, which had recently been confiscated after her parents found out she had been in communication with strangers online.
The Carroll County Sheriff's Office, which is investigating her disappearance, said in a Sunday Facebook post that its office has received "numerous tips" related to Jones' whereabouts — none of which have led them to find the 16-year-old.

On June 16, Kaylee Jones climbed out of her second-story window at their home and apparently left their area without any way to communicate with her family since her phone had been confiscated. They have been searching for their daughter ever since. (Brenda Jones)
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation, FBI, the Secret Service, the U.S. Marshal Service and local law enforcement are now assisting in the search for the missing 16-year-old, who has special needs and has now gone two months without her prescribed medication.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Jones' parents previously explained to Fox News Digital that two days prior to their daughter's disappearance, they confiscated her phone in an effort to discipline her, at which point the 16-year-old turned to her laptop and began communicating with strangers on chatrooms like Omegle — a website that allows users to anonymously send direct messages or video-chat with one another.
Jones shared personal information, including her family's address, with some "guys" she was speaking to online, her parents said.
