A military spokesman said on Friday afternoon that a Marine has been charged in connection to case involving a 14-year-old girl found on Camp Pendleton in Southern California in June.
Cassaundra Perez, the girl's aunt, spoke to reporters on Aug. 7 to express her frustration at what she called the lack of transparency of the investigation being conducted by NCIS and to demand more be done to protect Native American children from sex traffickers.
All visitors are stopped by Marines at the entrance to the sprawling base and required to show authorization to enter the base. Marines are allowed to bring a visitor on base and into the barracks until a certain hour, which varies according to each building. It's unclear how long the girl was at the barracks or whether she was spotted by other Marines who reported her presence.
It is also unclear how the girl and the Marine came into contact and whether they met online or in person.
