HELP US FIND OUR CHELSEA. Origins: On Thursday, 25 February 2010, 17-year-old Chelsea King of Poway (a city near San Diego, California) failed to return home following an after-school run. The following evening, the Poway High School senior's still-locked automobile was found in a parking lot at the Rancho Bernardo Community Park in that community. On 2 March 2010, the body of Chelsea King was found in a shallow grave near Lake Hodges. John Albert Gardner III, a 30-year-old registered sex offender, was arrested on suspicion of murder and rape in connection with King's disappearance. Gardner had been convicted of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl ten years earlier (for which he spent five years in prison) and was suspected in the 27 December 2009 attack on a female jogger in the same general area where Chelsea vanished. Amber Dubois, a 14-year-old girl, also disappeared in that same area on 13 February 2009. On 16 April 2010, Gardner pled guilty to the rape and murder of Chelsea King and Amber Dubois. During his allocution, he also admitted to the attempted rape of the female jogger mentioned above. He was sentenced to life in prison without parole and waived his right to appeal.
