(NY DAILY NEWS) Don't expect Sheri Simonek to Facebook friend her new son-in-law.

The California woman received a message from her missing 15-year-old daughter via the social network with word that the teen was safe - but married, pregnant and living in Mexico.

"I believe she wants to come home, but she is scared for the man she is with now, thinking that he is going to go to jail," the stunned grandmother-to-be told Bakersfield's KERO-TV.

Alisa Wheeler vanished in June, with her family convinced she fled to Mexico with her adult boyfriend - who it turns out was married, according to Simonek.

The teenage girl split with the older man and, in an apparent act of self-preservation, began a relationship with a 23-year-old named Chino, Simonek said.
