Kayla Berg Missing for Two Months
Hope Sprenger has been wearing a cross necklace everyday for the past two months, a present from her missing daughter. She says she’ll continue to wear it until she comes home, “I have no idea. It’s like she just vanished.”
Hope’s 16-year old daughter Kayla Berg has been missing since August 11th.
“She did not run away. That’s my true gut feeling it’s not in her nature,” says Hope.
Kayla grew up in Antigo and her mom says there’s no way her happy, outgoing daughter would have left without telling anyone. According to Hope, Kayla went missing while visiting her father in Wausau. The Antigo Police Department is calling Kayla missing and endangered.
“Everybody’s dedicated to the cause and we hope that we can bring her home safe,” says Captain Nate Musolff of the Antigo P.D. He says they have at least one person working on this case everyday. He says they also receive tips from the community constantly, “Community is aware of it and everyone’s chipping in to and doing what they can to help us locate her.”
Hope and Captain Musloff say Kayla’s entire family and the Antigo community are working hard to find her. They both say no one involved will rest until they do.
“We’re not going to quit until we come up with what happened. It’s hard to say when that will happen, but at some point we’re going to figure this out,” says Captain Musolff.
“She is my single motivation. She’s what gets me up every morning,” says Hope.
Hope adds she gets through the days by working to find her daughter, but it’s not easy, “It’s just a nightmare, like I can’t, I can’t wake up. It’s a living nightmare.”
A nightmare Hope says she will only wake up from when Kayla comes home.
If you have any tips on Kayla Berg’s whereabouts, the Antigo Police Department asks that you call
To do so you can call Crimestoppers at 715-627-NAIL or the Antigo Police Department at 715-627-6411
Kayla is 16-years-old, she has brown hair and eyes, she is 5 feet two inches tall, she weighs about 108 pounds, has pierced ears and a pierced navel and has scars on the right side of her nose and her right shin.

WSAW Story : Search Continues for Missing Antigo Teen
.
It sounds to me like “whowhatwhere” is a very immature person who is in denial about what really happened. After six months, it is obvious that Kayla didn’t run away on her own…Kevin assisted in her misfortune, whatever that may be, and now he must face the truth and realize that pleading guilty isn’t going to erase what happened six months ago.
He just gave her a ride to wausau He is NOT GUILTY of anything.
Kayla did what she did it’s her fault for not coming home..
Also it’s getting sicken hearing about her She is gone so deal with it she would come home if she wanted too but she must not want too.
But when she does come home she better get the book throwing at her for doing what she did to Kevin and his Family and friends.
Also tennagers run away for reason and she had a reason to run..
Also if she would of told people they would know where she is and get her back home But know Kayla being the spoiled kid she is don’t tell anyone and than don’t care about anyone back here. and don’t care that she messed up a very good family and their lives.( Kevin’s Family) all she cares about is herself rite now and that is very sad…
So for everyone out there Kevin is the best person i ever know he will do anything for you he helped me and my family and my daughter went with him and she came home safe and sound. also i would let him around my kids anyday cause he is so nice.. Kevin you are NOT GUILTY KAYLA is just being a spoil brat and isn’t thinking at all she needs to grow up and act her age. Come back and Deal with Life just like everyone does…………..
Kayla please come home safe God be with you at all times..
Just come home so your family can help you get though whatever is on your mind.. Please come home Kayla we all miss you……
I somewhat agree with WHOWHATWHERE! Kevin should not be being blamed. He gave her a ride. Kayla chose to be friends with him and her parents chose to let her hang out with a 24 year old. I am in my 20′s and I am friends with a lot of people that just got out of high school, because they are my brothers and sisters friends and they have been to my parents house. Does this make me bad person. And Kayla chose to do drugs. Anyone who knows her knows noone forced her to do the drugs or whatever! Giving someone a ride is NOT a crime!!!! I also think that everyone on here should have to apologize publically. I also am begining to think that Kayla planned this whole thing and does not want t be found. Why would she take her purse or her cell phone(if she had one)? she left everything behind for a reason…so nothing could be traced to her. The police should start looking into that angle. And look in places that she loved. For instance, didn’t the family just move back from Texas? Maybe she liked it there and made friends there or had a bf there and her mom or whoever made her leave that and she went back? are these kind of things being looked into. What is sad is the Antigo Police Department. they don’t do there job!!! people get away with murder in this town, that has been proven quite recently. don’t worry though if you kill someone in antigo the police department will just rule it as suicide cause they are too lazy to investigate or call in investigators that can do something. I mean come on people! all this blaming on kevin for giving her a ride is a waste of time, when people could be out looking for her and digging into what really happened everyone is too busy pointing fingers at an innocent person. I guess if he is guilty then noone should ever give anyone a ride ever again, cause it makes us all guilty.
One more thing…everyone attacking WHOWHATWHERE just proves the stupidness that goes on in this town and the naieve ways of thinking…of course its easy to blame Kevin…that means noone has to get off there *ss and do anything!!! While Kevin is being blamed Kayla is probably sitting somewhere laughing, because she is in the clear and another family is being ruined…and this all means they aren’t looking for her and she can live life the way she wants. I kind of hope this is the case, because for the families sake I’d hate to see anything happen to her..but if this is the case I agree when she is found she deserves to have the book thrown at her for putting not only her family but other families through hell!!! If she is found safe and sound she needs a wake up call.
Well I’m so sick of this all cause everyone is looking only at Kevin.
Also I give ppl. rides home everyday hey if they don’t go in the house it’s not my fault that they didn’t go home also I don’t sit and ask them question where and what they all plan on doing once home, it’s not my concern at all, and if they take drugs so be it that is there problem not mine.. I had a kid not go home once i dropped them off But like i told the parents it’s not my fault that they didn’t go in the home and I told them all i did was drop them off and left that they do what they want after they are out of my car that is the parents of these kids problem not mine..
Ok thats what Kevin did was JUST gave her a ride didn’t know anything besides she wanted a ride to wausau. ok than she took drugs well that was her choice to do the drugs. she could of said NO..
ok yes she was 15 yrs.old ok kids can say NO to drugs at that age but No she wanted too and she did. Kevin didn’t Force her to do anything that nite. Ok she called Kevin why didn’t she call anyone else cause she knew Kevin wouldn’t sit and ask any question why she wants to go to wausau who is there.. anyone else would asked to many question and told her to come back home and she didn’t want to come back so this was the only way she could leave town is ask someone that won’t ask question at all… the police are as dumb as some ppl. cause number one go and get more ppl. to help look for her. also they are all 2 faced every police officer they help out who they want and don’t care about the next person at all. ppl. have the wrong last name cause if you had a good name the police will help you and let you go on things.. They sit and help this one person that should be in Jail for good but no they kiss butt..
Well number one sit and think like a teenager go back and restep that nite. Why didn’t she tell her friends what was going on, cause someone would say something to her parents and they would find her, also are you sure she wasn’t due to have a baby and she left till she has it,or she has a friend somewhere that noone knows about. Go and talk to all friends again and tell them if anyone of you have any Idea where she is you’s will get money if you say and tell the truth, She could change her hair color or cut her hair so picture her with short hair also..
So this is what I’m trying to say THINK LIKE A TEENAGER and things will come around… Wake up and smell the flowers…
I hope she is safe But also she needs to be booked for something cause this is aweful what she did to all these Familys…
Also My kids hung around older guys but I knew the family really good and like i tell my kids you don’t come home Well you will have one big problem on your mind when you do.. if you run away from problems guess what when you do show back home your problem is still there..
You can never Run away from problems cause they will always be there till you deal with them.. So Kayla you need to come home and Deal with the problem and also I’m sure ppl. will try to help you out…
Gosh just stop the bull crap and come home and deal with the problems I’m sure your parents can help you out… or someone….
Back off Kevin and his friends and Family we are going though enough stuff already… Go and look for Kayla and stop the sh*t…..Also why did the paents let her hang with Kevin well cause he is a good guy, also they didn’t know what Kayla was going to do that nite well maybe she would be here still if the parents would of asked her what is was doing before leaving the home, I also think the parents know something and aren’t saying anything at all… cause this whole thing is way to fishy cause she could of had anyone give her a ride but No she asked Kevin so she could take her drugs and she knew Kevin wouldn’t ask her why she wanted to go…. SO SHE had it all planned where she was was going and with who cause Know matter what anyone says here all kids say hey I’m going here for the nite and end up some where else cause if the parents knew the truth they wouldn’t of been able to go than.. So that is Just what she did planned her get away and she didn’t know that Kevin can get in trouble for Just giving her a ride,, WEll he did and it’s not fair at all… SO KAYLA COME HOME AND HELP KEVIN OUT BE THAT FRIEND YOU SHOULD BE TO HIM AND COME HOME SO HE GETS FREE OF ALL THINGS AND HIM AND HIS FAMILY CAN GO ON WITH THEIR LIVES HERE… ALSO KAYLA THIS IS AWEFUL WHAT YOU DID TOO HIM GROW UP AND COME HOME AND DEAL WIYH AL YOUR PROBLEM RUNNING AWAY JUST MADE ONE BIG PROBLEM…. sO EVERYONE NEEDS TO THINK LIKE A TEENAGER AND LEAVE KEVIN ALONE………..
You just proved that you are an immature teenager by your last comment, therefore not understanding the full impact of this whole situation. My sympathy goes out to Kayla’s family if they still read this blog, she is still in our thoughts and prayers along with all of you.
Isnt there anyway they can find out who
whowhatwhere is with the technology now days it seems so ip addresses and such when logging on here could help some. This person knows or thinks they know an awful lot.
Mr. Kielcheski is an ADULT who was not only riding around with a 15 year old girl, but supplying her with illegal drugs as well as using them with her! NO NICE GUY DOES THIS! Are you people insane? He has a documented history of drug abuse and arrest. He is a criminal whether or not he is guilty of her disappearance in this case. Kayla was a 15 year old minor child. Obviously Kayla was not making the best choices for herself, but any decent 25 year old man would not have played any part in this situation. This man is GUILTY of something alright! What I would like to see is one shred of evidence that he ever dropped her off in Wausau.
KEVIN IS NOT GUILTY OF THIS ALL HE DIDN’T DO ANYTHING TO HER ALL HE DID WAS GIVE HER A RIDE JUST LIKE PPL. GIVE RIDES TO TEENAGERS EVERYDAY.. HE didn’t make her take the drugs she did that on her own. teenagers hang around older ppl. cause they have the car’s
ALSO HE DID TAKE HER TO WAUSAU AND DROPPED HER OFF IF PPL. WOULD GO BACK AND READ ALL THAT HAPPENED.. God Kevin wouldn’t hurt any child at all he is a very nice guy. This is getting so sick cause all ppl. think of is how you’s can cut a Family down that you don’t even know at all Kevin and his Family are so nice. Leave him and his family alone God the ppl.in Antigo can be so mean. Give up if you can’t say anything good about Kevin than don’t say anything at all.. Also Kayla’s mom was friends with Kevin and if she didn’t want her daughter hanging with him than why didn’t she stop it… Kayla did what she wanted too and didn’t care about anyone else so she is more at fault than Kevin.. Kayla’s mom should of know more about her daughters where abouts.. also her Dad cause maybe if they were the parents that they should of been she would be here, cause they didn’t know she was on drugs gosh also take a look at the parents they should of been more close to there daughter…also who she was talking with and hanging out with. She left for a reason what is the reason Kayla only knows that.. Maybe the parents better look for her back at the Texas where they were maybe she had a friend that they don’t know about back there.. I mean if this was my child I would be out looking and asking alot of questions to see what I could find out… So everyone needs to Think like a teenager and maybe something that the police missed you will find out something.. my gosh instead of sitting on here cutting ppl. down do something to find her……………..Stop the Drama and Stop with Kevin He is NOT GUILTY………
I think many of us have thought about whether he really took her to Wausau or not, have wondered if something didn’t happened between the two of them here and they never even made it to Wausau (?). I guess only Kevin and Kayla knows what really happened, I just pray that someday we ALL know the truth and she is just able to come home safe.
LIKE EVERYONE SAYS SHE WAS 15!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WHY THE HELL DIDN’T HER PARENTS KNOW WHERE SHE WAS GOING THAT NIGHT OR WHOM SHE WAS WITH???FRICKEN DUH??? PEOPLE!!! WHY AREN’T THE PARENTS BEING BLAMED. THEY ARE THE ADULTS HERE. I GUESS THEY SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A LITTLE MORE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THERE “PERFECT” DRUGGY CHILD!!!!! MAYBE THEY SHOULDN’T HAVE LET HER HANG OUT WITH PEOPLE OVER THE AGE OF 18. YOU GUYS ALL POINT THE FINGERS AT KEVIN BECAUSE IT IS EASY…MAYBE SOMEONE SHOULD BE POINTING THE FINGERS AT THE IRRESPONSIBLE PARENTS IN THIS MATTER!!! WHAT PARENT DOESN’T KNOW WHERE THEIR 15 IS GOING AT NIGHT WHEN SHE/HE LEAVES THE HOUSE??? DON’T PARENTS ASK QUESTION? DOESN’T THE CHILD HAVE TO ASK FOR PERMISSION??? AND IF SHE WAS AT HER DADS AND SHE TOLD HER DAD SHE WAS GOING TO MOMS THEN DAD SHOULD HAVE TAKEN HER TO MOMS OR CALLED MOM TO LET HER KNOW THAT KAYLA WAS COMING BACK BY HER!!! ITS CRAZY HOW ALL YOU PEOPLE THINK. QUITE IMMATURE ACTUALLY! PEOPLE IN GLASS HOUSES SHOULDN’T THROW STONES!!! REMEMBER THAT THE NEXT TIME YOU HAVE TO GIVE ONE OF YOUR CHILDREN A RIDE HOME OR YOUR CHILD LEAVES THE HOUSE. OR U COULD BE LIKE KAYLAS PARENTS AND JUST NOT ASK QUESTIONS AND 6 MONTHS LATER BE LIKE THIS…MAYBE EVERYONE SHOULD LEARN A LESSON FROM THIS!!!
I thought he was innocent UNTIL proven guilty. Not the other way around.
Well this goes to the person that just wrote on here.(people)
I ‘m So happy for what you wrote because it says it all..
Kayla and Kayla’s parents are at fault also more than ever..
It just don’t make any sense she was at her Dad’s in wausau than she came back to Antigo FOR WHAT..Than later at nite she went back to wausau.. OK WHY DID SHE COME BACK HERE WHEN SHE WAS ALREADY AT WAUSAU… WHY DID SHE CALL KEVIN TO GIVE HER A RIDE BACK??
WHY DIDN’T SHE ASKED HER MOM TO GIVE HER A RIDE?? BECAUSE SHE DIDN’T WANT ANYONE KNOW WHERE SHE WAS GOING…. why didn’t the parents say hey where you going?? CAUSE SHE DIDN’T WANT ANYONE KNOW WHERE SHE WAS GOING SHE WANTED OUT OF HERE CAUSE IF YOU TELL FRIENDS WHERE YOU WERE GOING SOMEONE WOULD FIND HER.. KAYLA HAD A PLAN AND IT WAS TO LEAVE AND MESS UP A FAMILY AND HAVE HER PARENTS WORRY SICK…ALONG WITH EVERYONE ELSE.. ALSO PEOPLE NEED TO LOOK AT THIS ON BOTH ENDS.. KAYLA and KAYLA’S PARENTS.. everyone needs to look back on this and maybe something was missed and it will help find her..
ALSO EVERYONE NEEDS TO SIT DOWN TALK TO YOUR KIDS AND MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHERE THEY ARE AND WHO THEY ARE WITH AND MAKE SURE THEY ALL COME HOME SAFE… STOP THE DRAMA AND MOVE ON AND HELP THIS FAMILY OUT MAYBE SOMEONE CAN FIND SOMETHING THAT WILL FIND HER… BUT BACK OFF KEVIN CAUSE HE DIDN’T FORCE HER TO DO ANYTHING HE JUST GAVE HER A RIDE LIKE ANYONE ELSE COULD OF GAVE HER RIDE AND JUST THINK IT COULD BE YOU BEHIND BAR’S IF YOU WERE DRIVING HER. SO BE THANKFUL THAT IT WASN’T YOU DRIVING THAT CAR.. IF IT WAS YOU DRIVING YOU’S WOULD BE SAYING I JUST GAVE HER A RIDE WE CAN’T HELP IT SHE DIDN’T COME HOME……… So just stop cause this is hurting alot of people all the Drama……God only know’s where she is and also Kayla only knows what she wanted out of life cause she didn’t let her parents know thats for sure………….
Thank You Stan!!! You are innocent until proven guilty…thats exactly the way it is!!!
Yes STAN you are of course correct. However, this is a blog to discuss ideas and I would just like to see any shred of evidence that Mr. Kielcheski took this child to Wausau. So far I have seen nothing that proves his story. Like the rest of us who care about this missing child, I would just like to know the facts. Only the facts will help to solve this case. I do admit that it really disgusts me that anyone is saying what a great guy Mr. Kielcheski is. He admitted that he and Kayla were driving around in his car and using illegal drugs. HE ADMITTED THAT! That is criminal behavior on his part and certainly makes him guilty AT LEAST of contributing to the deliquency of a minor. If the Kielcheski family were so wonderful, why were they allowing their 24 year old son to to hang around with 15 year olds? Especially when he was a convicted drug offender? Honestly, didn’t they see the path he was on and what kind of thing sould surely happen next? According to “whowhatwhere” he was “always giving teenagers rides!” Hmmm. Didn’t he have any friends his own age? What is wrong with this picture?
He hung around ppl. his age also.. And he did give her a ride to wausau if you would go back and read everything she was dropped off…
WHAT PARENT LETS HER CHILD HANG AROUND A OLDER GUY???
WHAT PARENT DIDN’T KNOW WHAT HER DAUGHTER WAS DOING???
WHAT PARENT DIDN’T KNOW HER DAUGHTER WAS TAKEN DRUGS????
WHAT PARENT DON’T ASK THE DAUGHTER WHERE OR WHAT SHE WAS DOING THAT NITE???
WHAT PARENT LETS WHO DAUGHTER LEAVE THAT LATE AT NITE AND DON’T ASK ?????
WHAT DAUGHTER LEAVES THE HOME AND DON’T TELL ANYONE WHERE OR WHAT SHE WAS DOING CAUSE SHE DIDN’T WANT ANYONE KNOW CAUSE THAN THEY WOULD OF SAID NO….
THIS COULD OF HAPPEN TO ANYONE THAT WOULD OF GAVE HER A RIDE THEY WOULD BE IN THE SAME SPOT AS KEVIN…
ANYONE TO BE AT FAULT HERE IS KAYLA CAUSE SHE DID SOMETHING THAT NOONE SHOULD OF DONE TO ANY PARENT, SHE LEFT HERE FOR A REASON AND WHAT REASON SHE WILL ONLY KNOWS TILL THAN WE ALL NEED TO HELP FIND HER AND BRING HER BACK AND GET THE TRUTH OUT OF HER WHY SHE DID WHAT SHE DID. KEVIN IS NOT GUILTY..
KEVIN DON’T KNOW WHERE SHE IS CAUSE SHE DIDN’T TELL HIM CAUSE THAN HE WOULD TELL SOMEONE AND SHE WOULD BE FOUND IF SHE WANTED PPL. KNOW WHERE SHE WAS SHE WOULD OF TOLD SOMEONE BUT SHE DIDN’T FOR A REASON AND THAT WE WILL NEVER KNOW TILL SHE COMES BACK.
HOW DO WE NO SHE COULD OF LEFT CAUSE SHE WAS HAVING A BABY SO SHE LEFT TO HAVE THE BABY IT DOES TAKE 9 MONTHS AND SHE HAS BEEN GONE 6MONTHS IF SHE IS HAVING A BABY SHE WOULD BE DUE IN APRIL.. MAYBE SHE WILL SHOW UP THAN.. GOD ONLY KNOWS HERE ALONG WITH KAYLA………….
I find it interesting that the poster known as ‘people’ has such a problem with Darwin Davis but not with this Kevin fellow. People alledges that Darwin slipped drugs to an underage femae. I am not doubting this, as he is a convicted child molester, but this Kevin also gave drugs to an underage girl. Why defend this? I have no clue whether Kevin has done anything in Kayla’s disappearance, frankly I doubt he did anything more than what has been reported. If he had, the police would be on it. However, he is far from the great guy that he is being reported to be. I am not going to convict him, but to defend his actions is a bit screwy.
Kudos “No Pain,” you hit it right on the head!
NO PAIN: You are right on!
I have to say though, does anyone really believe that Kayla and her family are part of some elaborate scheme to scam everyone just because she got pregnant? Come on! Young girls get pregnant in this day and age and although it may not be the greatest situation to be in, it certainly isn’t as shameful as it was back in the 1950s. Girls do not leave everything, including their purse and run off to have a baby in secret anymore. If she was trying to keep this private, wouldn’t it make more sense for her family to just say she went to stay with a cousin or something? Does anyone really think they would make posters and flyers and go on TV crying and all of this? I do not know Kayla or her family, but did meet her grandfather once and he truly seemed just devastated. People can’t fake this. Please don’t believe that this child is part of some hoax. Please keep looking for her.
I blame the parents for Kaylas drug use and hanging out with people over the age of 18 not Kevin. Her parents should have been a little more aware of what was going on with their daughter! They had no problem with her hanging out with Kevin. And mind you is the difference between Kevin and Darwin is…Kayla chose to do drugs with all different people not just Kevin noone forced her too, Darwin unknowinly slipped someone I know quite well the date rape drug. She didn’t say lets go do drugs together lets go smoke pot together while you give me a ride. There is a big difference in the matter. Why is everyone blaming Kevin…when do the parents become at fault here.
I also have no problem defending Kevin, because Kayla asked him for a ride! and like I said she chose to smoke pot with him. It proves that some people on here didn’t know kayla at all!!!! Its horrible she is gone, but by no means is she a perfect little angel that she is being portrayed as! I just want her to come home so the family can go on with their lives. And if it does come out that she is in hiding and did this on purpose the brat deserves to be punished for she put everyone through.
People, that’s the problem…you blame. None of us know what happened to Kayla so blaming anyone at this point is premature. Was her home life perfect? No. Blaming her parents is just as useless as blaming Kevin. My parents couldn’t have known everything i was into and neither could yours. If that is the standard you hold to, then there are very few good parents out there. You also pick and choose what actions outrage you. You are correct in condemning someone who slips someone the date rape drug. However, you do not continue that reasonable thinking with condemning the crimes of contributing to the delinquency of a minor or exposing a child to harmful materials. No responsible adult does drugs with a child, regardless if the child does it willingly. Kevin has admitted to that, he is wrong and should be criticized for that action. He also should be charged for those actions, but that is up to the authorities. Any 24 year old man that engages in this behavior with a 15 year old girl deserves the scrutiny of the community. What I suspect is that he is a friend of yours and you just arent willing to call out the bad behavior of a friend, which really makes you a bad friend. A true friend will tell the other when they are wrong and not make excuses for them. Again, I am not accusing him of having anything to do with Kayla’s disappearance, I am condemning what he has admitted to doing. You (people), should do the same.
You are right…kevin shouldn’t have been doing anything with Kayla…I just think the parents should have asked more questions than what they did.
fair enough
So…anyone? Anyone have ANY proof that he took her to Wausau?
dddddd, while I appreciate and share your concern for Kayla, you have to drop this line. While Kevin’s behavior was reprehensible as any sensible person can see, the police have questioned this man. If there is anything more to his involvement, they would have found it. Just as it was inappropriate for ‘people’ to continue to defend his/her actions, it is equally inappropriate for you to suggest he has had more to do with Kayla’s disappearance than what has been reported without some form of evidence. Give this one a rest as it accomplishes nothing.
Kevin don’t have anymore to do with this he Just gave her a ride..
Also Kayla left for a reason and she only knows why..
So everyone can stop with Kevin.. If there was more the police would know cause he told them everything that he knew..
Gosh drop this cause its getting real old and ppl. are getting sick of hearing this..
Kayla is at fault too here along with the parents cause they should of know what the child was doing and asked her question…
So all ppl. can do for now is sit and pray she is alive and well and she comes home soon…
Well drop it and leave it be its done and over with Noone cares anymore who did this and who did that..
Kayla did this why?? she only knows Why… so when she comes home ask her Why she did what she did……….
My God! I read some of these posts and I just hope that the ones who spew out garbage never, ever, ever have a child go missing. Whowhatwhere, what if a youngster is playing outside and someone snatching them out of the backyard – it would be the child’s fault? Striving to keep children safe in this day is a task that is never-ending. Your child is not safe no matter where he or she is. Sickos can break into your house, steal them from your car, snatch them while they are jogging. Watch the news – it’s not an isolated event. There are religious figures taking advantange of our morals and our children. Do not pass judgement or blame. All I can say is that Kayla’s mom must be going through hell – probably second-guessing every single decision she has made as a parent. No one knows exactly how she feels, unless you can relate to having a missing child.
I panic when my children become ill because I cannot help them. I can in no way even begin to imagine if my child disappeared. My heart goes out to her family. When Kayla comes home safe, then ask questions… But to drop it now – how could you? Keep searching!! Kayla’s parents deserve the right to have hope that she is still out there – SAFE.
I didn’t say stop looking for her I said stop the crap on here..
it is getting so sick of hearing this and that The Drama needs to stop
My heart goes out for Kayla’s family also and i hope she does come home safe..
But stop writing on here and blaming this person and the next all it is is Drama..
Kayla needs to be found and hope and pray she is ok..
But she is at fault too just like her parents are at fault also for not know what she was doing with her life..
Also Kayla must of had this all planned cause she didn’t tell anyone cause she didn’t want to come home she wanted out and Why did she do this Kayla only knows the answers…………. Stop the drama
Nope, I definitely will NOT drop it. I want to know the facts and frankly I do NOT think the police have done nearly enough to help Kayla or her family. I think Mr. Kielcheski knows the truth about Kayla and for anyone to defend him is just bizarre to me. When a child is missing … 99.99% of the time, the last person she was with is GUILTY! Kayla is a child! Kevin Kielcheski is an adult! He is also a convicted criminal and drug addict! The ignorance and cruelty towards a missing and endangered 15 year old girl and her grieving family is what has to STOP!
Was there ever a lie detector test done? I know you cant use this in court but it certainly would be nice to know.
I’d like to know what everyones definition of a criminal is exactly??? And maybe a 15 year old girls parents shouldn’t have been letting her hang out with someone of that age and letting him at the house. This is whole blog is getting so old!!!! Everyone points fingers everywhere but the girl who took off and the parents who had no clue where she was going that night. way to keep your eye out on your 15 year old. Maybe more questions should have been asked and maybe their judgement should have been better when they were letting her hang out with people much older than her. Everyone is at fault here. Kayla? Kevin? and the parents?
Well, here are some of the things Mr. Kielcheski has been charged with and convicted of in CRIMINIAL COURT: Hmmm, I think this would classify him as a crimnial and a drug addict. Now, I would also like to know the results of a lie detector test and what the heck he did with 15 year old Kayla.

The possession of marijuana hardly qualifies someone as an drug addict.
STAN says, “The possession of marijuana hardly qualifies someone as an drug addict.”
Nor does it make someone an exemplary model of good judgment, Stan.
It takes a whole village to raise a child. We have, all of us, failed Kayla and her family. We must do whatever we can, together, as a community, to prevent failing any others. One sure step in that direction would be to eradicate the smirking acceptance of marijuana and other so-called “recreational” drugs as something okay, or even cool, to do.
Unfortunately, that step, and other such socially constructive efforts, are impossible to accomplish without clear-headed, visionary community leadership — something Antigo has never enjoyed, or been able to engender.
Oh my Gosh it is sad when people go and look people up to see what they have done. It is none of your business what Kevin has done in his past… KAYLA and her Parents are at Fault here cause they should of been here for the child instead of going and drinking all the time and not being home to make sure Kayla was ok or where she was..
They should give the parents a lie detector test and they would find that they are all lieing here…cause what parents lets the child just go out and be around older guys. Yes Kevin was a friend of Kayla’s brother well than she shouldn’t of been with Kevin at all…
Well this is getting so old and Drama cause Kayla left home for a reason so they should go and look real hard at the family and see why she ran..
The only one that knows why she left is Kayla.. If she wanted people to know she would of said but she didn’t want anyone know cause than her parents would of said No too her. So she planned this all and she did what she did… She is sitting some where looking and watching and maybe even laughing at all this.. Well she needs to be charged with something when she does come home.. Kayla I do hope you are safe and come home soon so everyone can put this all to rest… What you did is wrong and you need to come home and deal with everything.and get some help… Wake up and smell the roses life isn’t easy never will be just come home and deal with whatever is on your mind…………
I agree possesion of marijuana does not clairfy someone as a criminal!!! I mean come on people you are digging deep to try and make him look like a horrible person.
I am only responding to Albus in this post. The rest of the posts are ridiculous.
I completely agree that our community, as a whole, has failed Kayla and her family. I always thought that living in a small community had the benefits of bonding together in hard times. I was wrong.
I believe that the possession of marijuana does not mean someone is addicted to it. It proves bad judgment, because it is illegal. As is. . . not wearing a seat belt.
STAN, small communities bond together in difficult times when there is someone who can stand up and steer the community ship through troubled waters. But Antigo, rare among small communities, seems to lack both a social rudder to steer, and a moral compass to steer by. The police are resented and hampered by community-wide lack of cooperation and support, elected officials are invisible and tied to doing the least they can get by with to hold their jobs, and the almost-daily newspaper is an ineffectual exercise in personal ego and off-the-mark advertiser boosterism.
Any community would have turned out hundreds of people searching the area and pounding on doors to dig out tips within hours of a child’s disappearance… except Antigo, whose pride, joy, and community symbol is a disabled, obsolete, driverless steam locomotive on a short track to nowhere.
Well I don’t think they knew she was misses for like weeks after the mom called and said.. i heard she wasn’t even in town when she left.
But the parents are at fault here also.. number one the police department don’t want any help if they did they would ask for the help..
also it would help alot if who ever could help out go and help.. But this is Antigo ppl. don’t help know one unless they ask..
I think the police should get people to help cause they are misses something here.. Cause you have to think like teenager and go back to that nite and see what what wrong and I’m sure someone has too know something here.. But I guess we just leave the police do what they do best kiss people butts and don’t care about the next person.. and screw people over… But I have a feeling that she is somewhere and just don’t want to deal with life back here in Antigo… Than who wouldn’t want out of this town ppl. talk crap about ppl. and all the Drama……. If the police would let us help them I have a feeling we would find her cause we would get to the bottom of this and keep digging till something came up. but they are being the Antigo police keep everything to themself…
This goes to the police Gosh let people help you’s so she can be found and everyone can rest here…
You should be quite ashamed of yourselves for assuming she “ran away”…if she did run away, she is a troubled young girl and needs prayers and help, not criticism from what seems like quite ignorant people….and if the worst has happened where this young girl has been kidnapped and God knows what else, be a supportive and loving community. Think if this was your daughter, your sister, your niece….would you want your community talking about her in such a negative way? Be a supportive community…if the police aren’t doing everything they can, then be productive and do everything you possibly can to help look for Kayla…
I agree with you Christine, but it seems that people can only look one way. If one of my “friends” were to be convicted of a crime, I have to stand up for him/her. It HAS to be someone elses fault. As in this case here: This guy obviously has a friend on here who, quite frankly, needs an English lecture. This person sees absolutely no wrong doing by Kevin. She wanted to get high, he only supplied it. She would have gotten it anyways. She wanted a ride to Wausau, he only provided it. She would have gone anyways. Maybe WWW is correct and she did run away. But he/she seems to have a lot of info on this case that the police do not have. May I suggest that WWW goes to the police and give them this info. She is not my daughter, but if it was mine, I would want someone who has all the info that he/she has to step forward.
Yes, I am getting tired of hearing what an angel this guy is. I have one question for WWW: If it was your daughter that he supplied drugs to, then dropped her off in a city away from where you live, and she went missing, would you then say he is such an angel? And that this has nothing to do with him?
I apologize for sounding off like this, but even though he may be a nice guy, he still made the wrong choices.
Well said, Christine…we should be united, not divided until Kayla comes home.
Oh my gosh you ppl. are sick.. Kevin did spent alot of time with my daughter and yes she left with him and He never did anything with her didn’t do drugs or smoke pot. I trust Kevin with my kids and always will cause he is nice and always came over and my daughter was safe….
Kayla did what she wanted to do is get away from everything here….
So deal with it ok…..
Well since he hung out with your daughter www and because he came over to your house that makes him a nice guy? Good lord, open your eyes and stop with the ignorance www. There is no reason a 24 year old should be hanging out with teenagers. Are your children that hung out with him teenagers as well? Why would you as a mother ever allow that? You are asking us to “deal with it”…you need to deal with the fact that you are completely ignorant to the notion that he ‘may” be a murderer, and if nothing else is a young guy who needs to get his act together. You really want yout children hanging out with 24 year old types that are going nowhere in life? Bad things happen to peopple who put themselves in bad situations, as a mother I hope you would want better for your children.
Well I leave my children hang out who they want cause We know nothing will happen to them because Kevin is real nice to my kids. And also he didn’t kill Kayla so you can stop saying that…
My girls have a real good life know matter who they hang out with…we all have jobs and they are happy….
Yes my children are teenagers and we meet the parents and the guys and there isn’t nothing wrong with them hanging with adults cause my girls don’t have car’s yet and the guys do so thats how my girls go out and see there friends…
My children are happy and safe with who they hang out with.. and they are real happy with their lives cause like they say we have jobs and guys with cars and friends that care about us and we are happy….
Also the only IGNORANT person on here is you saying stuff about Kevin when you don’t even know him or his family they are very nice people and they wouldn’t hurt anyone…
Stop and look at Kayla and her parents for leaving her go without know where she was or who she was hanging with they didn’t ask her question they just left her go.. Well they are all too blame here isKayla and her parents..
Like my kids say at least we tell our mom where we are and who we are with and when we will be home.. and if we don’t come home we are very safe.. My kids say we feel safe with these guys and at least they care about us and will always be there for us…. my kids say to you’s all on here these older guys are nicer too us and they make sure we are safe and don’t make us do anything we don’t want to if we say No they say ok that is fine.. We don’t do drugs or drink and never been forced to do anything we don’t want too.. So stop been the way you’s are Kayla is at fault more than Kevin he just gave her a ride…………….
You let your teenagers hang out with older guys because they have “cars.” Adults don’t want to hang out with teenagers…I’m the same age as Kevin and actually yes I do know him. I have no desire whatsoever to hang out with a teenager. Adults and , andteenagers have completely different maturity levels, and frankly should have alot more going for them, then to hang out with a teenager and give them a ride. You are completely oblivious to the facts. I’m not saying Kevin did it, however, the fact that he hangs out with teenagers is pathetic. The fact that you let your teenagers hang out with adults is so unresponsible and pathetic. I’m not one for drama, but you are so ignorant and close minded to your own oblivious “bubble”, i can’t help but just want to make you see what you are doing as a parent.
My kids are happy and that is all that matters here and I don’t see anything wrong with kids hanging with who they want cause they are happy. they trust all the guys that they hang with and also they have friends their age also that they hang with but like my kids say at least the older guys don’t sit and cause problems with them and they understand better than the kids at their own age and don’t sit and say things my kids don’t like the drama that teenagers have these days. So that is why they hang with guys older than them..
I as a parent takes good care of my kids and they are happy for all i do and say.. Also I’m not keeping my kids home 24/7 and not let them have a life if they want to go and have fun they go I trust all the guys they hang with and so do they trust them.. So if you ask me I don’t care what you say but We as a family we are close and Noone is taken our happiness away from us.. Also they go to partys with these guys and have fun my kids don’t drink or smoke or take No drugs cause they were bought up very good and they don’t have sex with Noone cause I taught them the right way not like some parents they don’t even know who the kids are with and what they are doing like Kayla and her parents they don’t know what she was thinking or who she was with how sad is that.. Kevin is the nices guy i ever meet and My kids will always be his friend no matter what.. My kids come home safe and if they don’t come home they no they are safe with the guys my daughters know how to say No and won’t do anything that will put them in any trouble cause I’m a mom that taught them very well they never have to worry cause they know these guys won’t ever hurt them..
Kayla left for what reason well her parents don’t even know cause they never talked to her and had that daughter relationship that they should of had. Kayla is at fault here along with her parents maybe if her parents wouldn’t sit and drink and stay home with the kids she would know what she was thinking but No they will never know cause it seems to me Kayla isn’t going to come back home cause how her mom is a drinks all the time and never cared till she was misses how dam sad…………..
So don’t tell me I’m not a good mom My kids are always safe and always home when they aren’t out my kids sit and talk to me and never once did they get in trouble cause they will never do that.. My kids no right from wrong and if they have a question they come and ask me and i tell them my side and they go ok mom we won’t than cause we are that close…
I think your nose is growing
