HAMILTON - Police are looking for a 15-year-old girl who was reported missing by her mother and may be with a 34-year-old ex-convict.


The teen has been missing since Tuesday.

Jenna Simone is described as 5-foot-2-inches tall and 140 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes.

Rogers was convicted of drug abuse again in 2004 and was caught with drugs while on probation for that crime.

[Roamer]

Done, Sarah. I'm glad she isn't with him!

[sarahhod]

Me too Roamer...but Where the Heck is she??

Hoping your safe Jenna.

[emmeblu]

hmm, if she is not with him then where is she? Did she run away from home or is there foul play involved. Guess LE ruled this guy out as being involved in any way. Seems like the mother would have a reason for saying her daughter may be with this James Patrick Rogers.

Prayers she is located or returns home soon.

[Roamer]

Looks like she was with him after all:

Missing Hamilton teen found hiding in attic



By Eric Bradley • ebradley@enquirer.com (ebradley@enquirer.com) • October 11, 2009



A Hamilton teen missing since Tuesday was found in the company of an ex-convict who was initially identified as a person of interest.



Jenna Simone, 15, was found at 5 p.m. Sunday hiding in the attic of a building on Goodman Avenue on the west side of Hamilton, police said. She was arrested and charged with being a runaway and obstructing official business.

She was with James Rogers, 34, who has been imprisoned multiple times. He was convicted at age 21 of aggravated burglary in 1996. Less than a year into his sentence for that crime he was charged with escape and drug abuse.

Rogers was released from the Warren Correctional Institution on Sept. 27, where he had been serving time for charges that included aggravated burglary, according to the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction.

Hamilton Police said earlier in the weekend that they were no longer looking for Rogers in connection with Jenna. Police on Sunday confirmed that, but could not say more and would not comment on the nature of the relationship between Jenna and Rogers.

Rogers was arrested and charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor. He is being held in Butler County Jail pending a hearing in Hamilton Municipal Court.

Glad she was found safe and sound.

Doesn't she realize at her age she need not be with a man who is twice her age, a convicted felon and on the run?

I'm glad she's home...

[Roamer]

I thought he might be lying when they said she wasn't with him. Turns out I was right (for once).

Glad she is safe.
