According to her mother, Ginger Congi, it was not uncommon for her daughter to receive medical treatment for Type 1 diabetes.

'Members went in the area and handed out pictures, contacted local security guards to see if maybe they'd seen her. So the search was extensive. I was even looking at looking along the levees down in Sacramento, you know, going on bicycle rides and seeing if maybe I might come across through there. I was even looking in places when I was driving to work,' Congi said.
