Dominicans awoke on Monday morning, 8 March to learn that the two missing teenage girls from Santiago had been found — dead. The girls were missing from 26 February when one left for her high school and the other to buy school supplies at a nearby store. The girls, described by friends and teachers as model girls, were last seen boarding a taxi cab. The cadavers in advanced state of decomposition of 13 and 15 year old half sisters were found about half a kilometer from their home in Colorado, Santiago. The cadavers did not show signs of violence. The bodies were taken for autopsy to the Hospital Jos? Mar?a Cabral y B?ez, the largest in Santiago, as there are no clues to why they died. An anonymous call led to the discovery of the cadavers. The National Police had undergone a nationwide search, suspecting they had been kidnapped and were in a brothel in some tourist area. The girls lived with their father, police officer Jose Rafael Albino. The bodies were found by their brother, Jos? Andr?s in a hill nearby their house. Earlier last week, the Police resolved the case of two other teenager girls that had been reported missing, a 12-year old and a 14-year old. The girls, who resided in Santo Domingo, were found in a Santiago night club where they had gone to work. They were paid RD$750 every two weeks to dance and serve drinks to Dominican patrons at the Night Club Moran, that police authorities closed after detecting the employment of the two minors. The girls said they were not obliged to remain in the night club and did so in order to have money on their own. They were returned to their parents homes by the Police.
