LAS VEGAS | 'Madison' safe with family, investigators say
LAS VEGAS -- A young girl who was seen being sexually assaulted in a homemade videotape has been found and is safe with family members and sheriff's officials, an investigator said Friday.
''We found the victim. She's safe,'' Nye County sheriff's Detective David Boruchowitz said.
Widespread media accounts of the case led to the crucial tip that helped find the girl, Boruchowitz said. He did not provide details of her identity, where she lives or how she was located.

Authorities named fugitive Chester Arthur Stiles as a ''person of interest.'' Stiles, 37, whose last known address was Las Vegas, is also wanted on an unrelated state warrant on a charge of lewdness with a minor younger than 14 and a federal charge of being a fugitive, Nye County Sheriff Tony DeMeo said.

The girl’s mother found out what had happened to her daughter four years ago as someone called her.
"Somebody contacted her and said, 'Hey your daughter's on TV,'" Boruchowitz said. "She recognized her daughter."
"The mother was not aware of anything that went on with this young girl," DeMeo said.
