Kiely Rodni was last seen attending "a party of more than 100 juveniles and young adults" near the Prosser Family Campground in Truckee, California, at 12:30 a.m. Saturday, according to the Placer County Sheriff's Office. Also missing from the party was Rodni's car, a silver 2013 Honda CRV.

Her phone has been out of service since the party, authorities said. At a news conference Tuesday, Placer County Sheriff's Sgt. Scott Alford said her phone last sent data at 12:33 a.m. Saturday

Apparently she actually graduated at 16 and was an honor student and that says something about her dedication and hard work. But let's face it she was at a party and drinking at 16 and where there were drugs (no idea if she did any) and 16 is FIVE years under the legal drinking age.

In the video I linked she apparently asked ahead of time to have her usual curfew extended for that night. I didn't hear what her usual curfew was. I almost wonder if contact with the parents was to ask for more time or explain being later still. But that's just speculation on my part.

Then she told her friend allegedly she was planning to stay overnight but asked her parents for an extended curfew... it does give me SOME hope that she had some plan of staying out all night with someone and was trying to work that BUT one has to hope whoever she was with didn't harm her and it has been so many days it doesn't appear likely.

BUT she also could have left on her own, thought she was in trouble, she thought she graduated and was an adult even though just 16 and could make her own way in the world as she worked hard and graduated with the 18 year olds OR she could have had an accident as most are thinking. I don't though, as I said, like that her phone is dead or off or something. It doesn't really fit with accident. This was a 16 year old attractive girl at a party with a LOT of strangers I am betting. Drugs and alcohol. I think the accident is less likely than the obvious likely scenario BUT it is possible.

And jmo of course.

They say the water levels are very low in that area and at the campground this year so...

I almost wonder if this party was "advertised" and even in the old days back before internet, if one was having a party with alcohol or drugs, you could easily end up with tons of strangers showing up and hearing about it even if you tried to ensure it was a small party. 300 people is a LOT. That's a BIG "guest" list for a "graduation" party.
Yep. High school it was word of mouth. Then they told people that didn't go to our school that all others didn't know. And the parties weren't small. So the police caught on to our party places pretty fast. I would think if this was a party spot for teens, I would hope the police would have been on it and not ignore it. Then if they did know that and did nothing. And something happened to this girl at that party. It wouldn't have happened. And they should be held responsible along with whoever caused her harm. I'm just throwing out scenarios.
 

At least three dive teams have joined the search for missing California 16-year-old Kiely Rodni at the Prosser Creek Reservoir near Lake Tahoe.

They arrived at a cordoned-off boat ramp early Wednesday, as the search for Rodni entered its fifth day and following fruitless efforts involving K-9s, land vehicles, aircraft and boats.

The divers were staging in the boat ramp parking lot before planned searches in areas of the reservoir, which is 60 feet deep at its nadir. Crews told Fox News Digital they planned to search underwater near the shore.
 
One article is an interview with the parents stating they had extended her curfew a bit and she had just told them she was going to be on her way home shortly
Right but was that by the time agreed or was the contact made as she wasn't going to quite make it by then and so she said I'm having fun and I know I'm going to be a bit late but I'm leaving shortly...? We never are told everything. I'm guessing mom was trying to wait up for her and then found she was going to be a bit yet and then fell asleep as it was late and she realized the next day she hadn't made it home.

Last seen around 12:30 and ten miles home she would have been pushing 1 a.m. That's a pretty late/early in the morning and that is just the last time she was seen, doesn't mean she didn't leave even later.

Not a judgment of the parents, they are clearly devastated and obviously she exhibited responsibility going by the fact she was an honor student graduating at 16 and even requesting permission for an extended curfew. I do have to wonder though if she wasn't feeling she deserved a break and felt as a graduate of high school, she was an adult. Heck the 18 year olds usually act like that on graduating so to me, it isn't far fetched. If her friend is telling the truth, she understood from Kiely the plan was she would spend the night. Maybe Kiely didn't want to tell the friend she didn't have permission to, it could be that simple of a reason for that difference between parent account and friend account...
 
Good point. Alot of underage drinking. She may have been drinking and didn't realize she was impaired. I would say only slightly, But enough to slow down refexes and responses. 300 people?! With that many people and alot of young people being drunk and or stoned, Alot of stupid avoidable things happen. Accidents, Don't want to get caught. It has certainly happened before. All those people and no one seemed to notice anything out of the ordinary?. But again, I think that party was wild and it was probably pretty chaotic. So I agree definitely that someone could be possible for her disappearance. I hate thinking this. But I have a very bad feeling. That for whatever reason, She isn't alive. I hope upon hope she is. I don't think at all that she left on her own accord.
I honestly don't lean that way either. I think it is very likely she left with someone whether willingly or unwillingly. Huge party and then this is a campground. It could have even been others that were just waiting for some girl to leave on her own or walk off on her own or some such although it more likely was a party goer. Was this a party for one person, a graduate, and from her class or was it something elsel? I saw it speculated that it was more of an end of summer party with kids getting ready to go to college or back to college etc. I wonder how many as young as 16 were there and how many older than 18 were there? The friend referred to older ones but not younger ones.
 
So at least they have a really tight timeline.
I don't know that they do because I don't think anyone actually saw her leave or no one that has admitted it anyhow... Could have been at any time being she didn't come home all night. But her phone went off at a certain time and THAT makes it a tight timeline if one assumes she was away from the party when that happened or at her car, etc... As far as WHEN she would have encountered someone...
 
Yep. High school it was word of mouth. Then they told people that didn't go to our school that all others didn't know. And the parties weren't small. So the police caught on to our party places pretty fast. I would think if this was a party spot for teens, I would hope the police would have been on it and not ignore it. Then if they did know that and did nothing. And something happened to this girl at that party. It wouldn't have happened. And they should be held responsible along with whoever caused her harm.

Yep total strangers of different ages showed up at any party just word of mouth even back then. For sure!

This allegedly is not far from Lake Tahoe and is I gather a known area for parties and more and I don't know in tourist areas, cops often aren't too heavy hitting as the area counts on people wanting to come back... Not that a big teen party is what all necessarily want to see go on...

Whoever provided the alcohol and drugs is in a world of sh*t. And IF this was some PARENT'S campsite or they endorsed the party, etc. oh boy. And IF a privately owned campground, well, they are likely ones that should worry as well. I don't know how you claim you never noticed a party of 300 kids. And then you know darned well there were likely kids there whose parents had NO IDEA they were attending such a party. All of this combines with why so many aren't coming forward but then too in a party of 300 did half or more even see her or know she was there? I've only seen mention of the one friend and so she may have been with no one else and that's why I wonder if she knew the person whose party it was or even most of the attendees? I mean she could have told her parents she did to have a reason to give them why it mattered to her to attend it but doesn't mean she was close to or even knew most of the people. So hard to say at her age, we all pulled things to get out of the house or stay out later and all while checking in too. i sure did. There were often all nighters at the drive in when I was 16, movies all night. Do parents really think all kids stay there?? Mine apparently thought so. I'll have to ask my mom or did they just not want to know or...?.

We'd also get dropped off before 16 at the bowling alley saying we were going bowling and then leave with older kids who drove when 15 the minute they left the parking lot almost. Not often with that but it was about when it all started... We wouldn't even necessarily do anything that wrong, just drive around town or bomb Main, etc. at that age anyhow. I'm sure it's different today, many grow up way quicker than I did...
 
So tons of high school kids came all the way from the Bay area and from Nevada as well. This was no "just local" party or of one high school, etc....I also gather the party spot is well known and is NEAR the family campground they refer to. So who owns the land...?

They are as we know CONSIDERING it an abduction. Other things are considered but... I believe they probably have reason we don't know about but they only say it is because they haven't found her car.

Another thing I figure is if she lived but about ten miles from there (think that's what I heard) that's not a LONG way IF she headed straight home as she informed her parents. I am sure they've searched her route I would imagine and although yes a car could end up in water or in a ravine, etc. short of flying or at very high speed, you are going to see something I would think like tire tracks, broken branches, a path a car would have taken off the road, etc. Even IF going high speed actually. How far have they put out a BOLO on the car I wonder.... Nationwide? In all surrounding states?

At the beginning of this they are sending someone to Reno to look for her. WHY?

The cops flat out say many aren't coming forward as they were minors drinking, etc. And I mean a BOLO to all other LE not just info put out on the news. They clearly have taken this one pretty seriously right from the start. I suspect they now SOMEthing. I think some of 200 to 300 people probably never even noticed her but on the other hand, some out of 200 to 300 people should have noticed her. She was allegedly being very friendly to one and all the friend had said.

I had seen parts of this before but not all of it.

 
And whether the phone was shut off or not, she is a minor at 16. I assume the parents or LE are checking the records and/or any app they may have used as a family for her and to see who she may have had contact with that night.

Reno is a good 32 miles from Truckee. Here is a map and I added Lake Tahoe as well as it was mentioned it was somewhat near that area as well. So they sent people to Reno for a reason I am figuring. I thought the friend said in the clip above "Midtown" ? To check Midtown. Was she connecting with someone from that area at the party and by connecting I mean talking to or hitting it off or was there maybe another party up there, place know to serve kids or something on that order? Is it somewhere she was known to go before? So many questions.

Here is a map that includes Truckee, Reno and Lake Tahoe and shows the state line. Didn't work, trying again.
 
Okay. This is only four minutes and it is interesting as heck. He is so sure she is alive, I put out at the beginning that I think there IS the possibility she took off and gave my reasons, the age, graduating, ready or thinks she is to be off on her own and do her own thing, etc. or planned on staying out that night, etc. perhaps... I didn't even mention others have also faked their disappearances and more but we do know that has happened. This lends to that possibility imo. She makes some good points that are similar and more. I am going to go off to find the full video of the ex or current (not sure it seems) boyfriend now with the other guy. I will link it here.

Not saying at all this is what happened but his remarks are downright odd and don't seem like just positive thinking that she will be found alive, it sounds too certain, etc. and that THEY will find her...
 
On the other side of the coin, these kids were there and could know exactly what happened to her and they know where they'll find her and could even have been part of something... That could be foul play, did something to her, or a plan of her own too of disappearing as I mentioned above... So either thing...
 
The fact she and her bf had to go all the way to Reno to "get some alone time" says something as well... Parents didn't want her being alone with boys or with him at least...? Or other friends interfering or exes or some such...?

She had a curfew and had to go away to get alone time with him, was she pretty sheltered so felt too many rules...? 16 but a graduate and she is also in school with 18 year olds I imagine who would likely have more freedom...
 
Hmmm. So he IS her boyfriend or he is an ex? WHICH is it? And she spent the day with a close friend making creme brulee but not the friend who went with to the party that we know of... This one said she doesn't think she'd run away and it almost feels to me as if she is saying that as it is thought that she did...? I'm not sure what to think... And this doesn't seem to be an ex if they were just in Reno the day before this party... WHERE is it they spend time alone? Some house there? Belonging to who? Where are they going to in the hills of Reno...? And is there a reason they'd think she may be there? That SHE took off to their spot or what?

And then they invited a news crew with. Not sure what to think...

The social media angle in the other video is interesting too... Her "friend" isn't friends with her on SM... BUT is with him... I think that's the party friend no she was referring to in the first video... Did Kiely want her to leave her there alone...? Would she have reported back to the boyfriend on her...? There is something funny here it seems... Or is there...? He certainly is upbeat...

 

Search for missing Kiely Rodni continues into day 6​

California authorities continue to search Thursday for missing Kiely Rodni, 16, who was last seen at a party in Tahoe National Forest over the weekend.

The Placer County Sheriff’s Office and Nevada County Sheriff’s Office said in a Thursday statement that they have put "numerous resources" to use to help find the missing girl, and "agencies have responded to help locate Kiely over the past several days."

"Searchers from across the state continue their search on the ground, in the air, and in the water — so far, we only have information on Kiely’s last known location before she went missing," they said in a Facebook post. "Detectives from local, state, and federal agencies continue to follow up on leads and conduct interviews in hopes of locating Kiely and her vehicle."

Between Aug. 6 and Aug. 10, more than 220 law enforcement personnel have been assigned to the search for Rodni, and officials have received more than 500 tips related to the case.

Rodni was last seen at a large end-of-summer high school party in the Tahoe National Forest that stretched from Friday night into the early hours of Saturday. Authorities say there is no evidence to confirm a kidnapping at this time.

I have a lot of family in the Reno area and have spent a lot of time there. People go back-and-forth from Lake Tahoe to Reno all the time. It’s not considered to be far away from each other in their world.
