Brad Miller, an attorney for Powerhouse Youth Facility Inc., told Arizona’s Family that Avelar and Meyer had a history of running away and were overheard discussing plans to leave one day before they went missing.
As a state facility, Miller explained, Powerhouse cannot force any residents to stay.
Miller stated that Powerhouse officials contacted the local police and the Arizona Department of Child Safety after the teens left. They reportedly met with the local area police again on January 10, 2023 when the pair had not returned.
“There’s so much life ahead of them; they have so much opportunity and growth and learning,” longtime Mesa resident Cathy Catalfo told Arizona’s Family of the 2 teens.
“[Their deaths are] disappointing, you expect more.”
Catalfo said there has been an uptick in police activity near Powerhouse, which reportedly opened last October.
“There has been a lot of traffic in general, a lot of police officers coming in the last couple of weeks,” she recalled.
“I guess the first thing that comes to my mind is who enticed [the girls] to leave? What made [them] leave a safe environment?”
