After nearly a year, is missing Baby Gabriel still alive?

Now forensics experts and authorities say they believe the child is dead.

Dr. Steven Pitt, a nationally known forensic psychiatrist in Scottsdale who has worked on high-profile cases, told the Tribune that a mother not sharing information about where her child is and not cooperating raises a huge red flag.
Good money says that the child is dead, Pitt said. This is not rocket science. You have a defendant who has allegedly made statements implicating herself in the disappearance of her child, but more importantly, has refused to share information about where her child could be. In my business, thats a clue.
At the end of the day, the absence of the mother sharing information about the whereabouts of her child is disturbing and very troubling, and the fact that she claims she gave the child away begs the question, to whom?

If alive, he now would be 19 months old and would be walking and talking. He also would weigh more, his hair might be darker and he might have been renamed.
However, Gabriel would have no recollection of Johnson or McQueary, according to Dr. Barbara Tinsley, a child psychologist and child development expert who is a professor at Arizona State Universitys Division of Social and Behavioral Sciences.
His well-being highly depends on if hes in a good and loving environment and if he has good nutrition, Tinsley said. That is critical. If hes in a deprived environment, his development has been slowed down, including his physical, cognitive and social development. But, if hes in a good loving environment, hes in pretty good shape.

Salame told Johnson he was the only one who cared for her and he was her best chance of being spared the death penalty, according to a Maricopa County Superior Court document.

A San Antonio police spokesman told the Tribune on Wednesday that its investigators have discussed seeking murder charges against Johnson with the district attorneys office there, and are investigating the case as a homicide.

But Texas authorities arent forthcoming with information about that interview with those involved in the case in Arizona. San Antonio police contend they are in the midst of an active homicide investigation and still are working with Tempe police on it.
