Chavez said nine search groups have already gone out Thursday and some of them were from people who reached out through Facebook.
"What we have had is good information from Facebook as far as putting out new information for others to keep a watch out," said David Westrick, Hollister Police Chief.
Police say this case is serious and are asking for help from the Department of Justice and the FBI to help gather evidence to answer the question, what happened to Carroll?

"We love her, we miss her and we want her home," said Chavez.
