Tobie Swint says he remembers seeing his 12-year-old granddaughter sitting up late on the night of May 30 when he went to bed. In retrospect, the girl seemed like she was waiting for someone, Swint said.
The next day she was gone. Her bedroom window was open, and alarms on the front door had been disabled from the inside, said Swint, of Upper Marlboro. All that was left was a note, which her grandmother, Mattie Swint, can recite from memory: "I know what I'm doing is wrong. It's just something I have to do. I'm going out, but I'll be back. I won't do this again."
