Response & intervention
Law enforcement were tipped off by one of the mothers and were able to follow through on an arrest warrant for Rice at her home. The police followed through with the warrant arresting Rice and rescuing the other of two girls.
The mother of one of the girls saw her daughter's picture online and had a friend set up a meeting, and the girl returned home a few days later. The police were tipped off by this mother, and then served a warrant on Rice at her home where they found the second girl inside. http://www.ktvb.com/news/regional/Tacoma-woman-used-donut-shop-for-child-prostitution-say-feds-111611689.html http://www.thenewstribune.com/2010/12/09/1457919/tacoma-woman-charged-with-sex.html
Yes, the victims were emancipated, but it is unknown if they received any aftercare. One of the girls ran away from home again, two weeks after being returned.
