Oh dear. "Illicit" is on the original, but "elicit" is what they meant to say.

Beaumont Police Department has classified her as a "critical missing" person and is asking the public, friends, family, and acquaintances for any helpful information. Police say she was 35 weeks pregnant when she disappeared and could have already given birth.

Investigators have searched the area from the air and the ground, monitored social media, and put up missing person flyers. They have also requested copies of surveillance footage and searched for leads in phone records and places where Cajairah frequently went. However, the police claim that the family is not cooperating with detectives, and they are pleading for more information.

Cajairah's mother, Karah Fraise, disputes several key facts presented by police, including the timing of the report and the claim that the family is not cooperating. She alleges that the Beaumont police were slow to file a missing person report, and their lack of urgency resulted in almost all surveillance footage expiring.

Wow, the police really dropped the ball with this one and then has the nerve to say her family is not cooperating. It’s stories like this that make people lose faith in LE.

 

[youarentsilly]

Surely if she had gone into hospital they would be alert? They would either have her name or be suspicious if she gave a false one and they had no records on? I am wondering if something happened to her weeks ago.

IMO They don't have any obligation to report than an adult woman is having a baby.

This is such b.s. What does the family need to give LE? How about LE goes and does its job of investigating? This is a common and pathetic refrain. If all it took was to talk to people then we wouldn't need police. Come to think of it...

 

[CastlesBurning]

None of these stories mention the baby's father...were he and Cajairah on good terms? Did anyone speak to him about anything he might know? Where was he at the time of her disappearance?

Any updates?

Over 2 months since seen, would have had the baby if still alive... sadly I don't think either she or the child are.

 

[GraceG]

Yeah, I don't get it.

Why, I wonder

The family made a statement in this article that referenced her "mental health". Family of missing pregnant woman issue statement on police news release - KESQ I'm wondering if perhaps LE was asking questions along that line that the family felt was not necessary or inappropriate and didn't answer. Sometimes it's simply a matter of communication between parties. I hope they can resolve any issues and just focus on what is important which is finding this young woman and her child.

She was seen on the camera behind the school heading south. If I recall correctly, someone told her family that was the direction she was headed in but they could not find her. She really can't go south past the school because there is a tall fence there. I highly doubt she climbed it. If she did manage to go past the fence, she would be in an open field that would be a little treacherous to traverse in the dark due to uneven terrain. I believe part of it is even a deep ditch. If it were daylight, she would almost assuredly be seen there. The other option if she headed south was to walk along a very dangerous road that goes down the mountain. People drive way too far and frequently this road is backed up or stopped due to accidents.

The area she is missing from is a heavily trafficked area, almost regardless of time of day or night. It's right off of I-10. West is LA and east is Palm Springs, then many people continue on to Phoenix. I'm wondering if someone picked her up. She could be anywhere.

Any updates? Where in the world could she be?

Nothing new locally
It appears they brought dogs in, but I am not sure exactly where they searched. Just behind the school and the Jack-in-the-Box (to the west toward Moreno Valley) are several homes on fairly large lots. At least one of them has a lot of "stuff" in the yard. No idea if they searched that, but it's where I'd start. Once you leave the immediate area of the restaurant and the school, it's really dark. If she wandered over near the houses I could see her getting hurt or even just taking shelter there and then something unfortunate happened.

If she continued walking south down the mountain toward San Jacinto, it would be very dangerous. Cars drive way too fast down the mountain. There are frequent accidents that cause stopped traffic, and it's very dark. If she tried to walk on the shoulder or off to the side, it would be treacherous in many areas. It drops off into deep ravines in multiple places. I have no idea if the side of the road in this area was searched.

Up thread, one of articles said something about her mental health. I wish we knew more about that. Mental health is such a vague, wide ranging term and people define it quite differently (positively and otherwise). Did we ever hear if she had her phone with her when she went missing?
