Massasoit student missing, relatives say

Adrianne Delaney told her parents she was going to pick up friends and go to the movies last Friday night, relatives said yesterday.

But the 19-year-old Plympton native did not go to those friends' houses, and relatives say they have not seen or heard from her since.

''She basically told me she was going out with the girls and would be home at 2, and she loved me," said her mother, Barbara Delaney in a telephone interview yesterday. ''Those were her last words."

Plympton police and officials from the Plymouth District Attorney's Office said they did not know why Delaney disappeared.

Plympton Police Chief Matthew Clancy said Delaney, a Massasoit Community College student, was last seen driving a brown 2002 Ford Explorer in Holbrook during the early morning hours on Saturday.

Barbara Delaney said her daughter is 5-foot-4, weighs about 110 pounds, and has blue eyes.

Adrianne Delaney was a ''social butterfly" who was studying to be an X-ray technician and had recently gotten engaged, said Shannon St. Martin, 34, a close family friend who has helped the family put up more than 600 fliers along the South Shore featuring the blonde teenager grinning widely.

''None of us are all together very religious, but we are praying," St. Martin said yesterday.

''She had no problems at school, no problems at home. She was just a typical 19-year-old. No one has any clue what could have happened."
