Discovery of Michelle Le's remains brings solace
September 21, 2011

Carrie McGonigle, whose 14-year-old daughter was raped and murdered by a registered sex offender in San Diego two years ago, didn't know what to expect when her yellow Labrador retriever suddenly bolted from her during a search for Michelle Le's body Saturday along a rural path in Alameda County.

It turned out that her 1-year-old dog, whom she named Amber, had found Le's skeletal remains hidden in tall brush, nearly four months after the nursing student disappeared from a Hayward hospital's parking garage.

Now, amid the pain over losing her daughter, McGonigle is finding some solace knowing that she played a part in bringing the 26-year-old San Mateo woman home to her family for a proper burial. A former high school friend of Le's from San Diego, Giselle Esteban, 27, has been arrested and charged with murder.

"I have a tremendous amount of sadness, not only reliving my own tragedy but also for the Le family," McGonigle, her voice breaking, said at a news conference Wednesday in San Diego. "This experience has made me come to terms with my own fear, the fear that I would not be capable of handling an experience like this."

McGonigle formed Team Amber Rescue, a volunteer search group, after her daughter, Amber Dubois, was murdered by registered sex offender John Gardner III. Gardner admitted that he had raped and murdered Amber in 2009 and another San Diego girl, 17-year-old Chelsea King, the following year, and is serving a life sentence.

At about 10:30 a.m. Saturday, McGonigle's team was searching off a dirt path near Pleasanton, between Foothill Road and railroad tracks west of Interstate 680 and north of Verona Road. McGonigle was taking off her dog's leash to attach to her harness when the animal suddenly ran off, returned and jumped on her chest. McGonigle followed the dog and "noticed what could possibly be some sort of remains."

McGonigle said she "praised Amber" and notified a police officer nearby before continuing with the search throughout the day, "not aware of the outcome."

Her dog is being taught how to be a search-and-rescue K9 and has never undergone training to search for bodies, she said. But Amber will now go through cadaver training, she said.

Last night Dateline had a two hour special that followed the case of Michelle Le from her disappearance through to justice prevailing when her killer was convicted.  It was a good documentary on so many levels.  The documentary was also very inspiring.

Michelle Le's body found by slain teen's mother
Published 3:21 pm, Tuesday, September 20, 2011


The volunteer who found the body of missing nursing student Michelle Le over the weekend was the mother of a slain San Diego teenager, police said Tuesday.

Carrie McGonigle, the mother of 14-year-old Amber Dubois, and her search dog found Le's remains Saturday in Sunol Canyon in Alameda County, said Hayward police Lt. Roger Keener.

McGonigle's daughter and Chelsea King, 17, of San Diego were raped and killed by registered sex offender John Gardner III, who is serving a life sentence. Amber disappeared in 2009, and Chelsea vanished a year later.

McGonigle declined to comment Tuesday, saying she would speak about the discovery today
