Where is Amy Yu today?
Yu has been living at a home for at-risk teens, which she tried to escape from this summer. Esterly has contended his relationship with Yu was innocent, that of a father trying to protect a headstrong daughter.
Was Amy found?
State police say Yu and one of the other girls were found Wednesday in Johnstown and the third girl was found in nearby Bedford. No details were provided about how they were found. Federal agents found Yu and Kevin Esterly in Playa del Carmen in March 12 days after police say he checked her out of school.
