GUILTY CO - Jordan Vong, 7, found deceased, Denver, 6 Aug 2018 *arrests*

[FlossyMay]

I guess we can change that "endangered" to "arrest".

 

[KaaBoom]

Ya I ran across hers and a bunch of the families fb last night. Seemed a lot of people live in that house FYI. Extended family etc. no way a 16 hid the body on her own. First it took the police 3 searches to find and you’re telling me no one was home to notice, naw IMO

Well if the police were there twice and didn't notice, I guess it's possible that no one else noticed too.

.....

So then why the need for a search warrant.

Exactly. More than the 16 year old were involved in the concealment...

Uh oh. Why did they need a warrant?

I'm trying to figure out the warrant situation too. According to msm LE did two "cursory" searches of the home on Monday August 6.

On Tuesday, August 7 about 5pm LE applied for a search warrant. They executed it at 8:26pm.

There's nothing in msm yet to clarify if LE sought the warrant because they felt the investigation had reached a point where they needed to start documenting their actions or if family requested they obtain a warrant. Either way IMO it was prudent to have a search warrant.

Glad to see the thread opened again. I was not at all expecting an arrest like this.

 

[ksprincess]

Oh my. Look in the replies to a post from "EP." TOS doesn't allow anything more to be said.

Oh my that just took me down a rabbit hole that I desperately want out of.

It looks like a small house, I don't understand how he wasn't found but then I think about that teen boy who killed a neighbor girl and hid her in his mattress. Can't remember the whole case though.

That was Josh Phillips who murdered Maddie Clifton. That case haunts me for some reason.

 

[FlossyMay]

Someone hid his little body. I shudder to think where. I can't imagine being able to sleep and eat, knowing he was there.

Yes that's who I was thinking of, thank you! I watched it on a show about young killers and it has stuck with me.

...But Montoya would not say what led police to seek a search warrant after more than 24 hours of looking for the boy.

And with a minor arrested, information will be slow coming forth..

“Jordan’s smile brought me joy. Seeing him happy, made me happy,” Desirea Chamberlin, Jordan’s 1st grade teacher at Greenwood Elementary, said tearfully. “His little giggle was contagious… he was sweet. He would pick me dandelions.”

Jordan’s mother and other relatives attended the vigil. His mom spoke briefly through tears, expressing gratitude for those who helped look for her son.

“He’s in a better place,” she said.

Why does a 7-year-old have to die in order to be "in a better place?" I get that such platitudes help grieving relatives deal with their loss and I mean no disrespect to Jordan's mom but the sentiment falls flat for me.

I am not an "in a better place" person but I do know that many believers in Christ will often say that as they believe that we live here and seek to be there through our behaviors.

I am truly unnerved by the upward spiral of numbers of teens killing young children.

Presser.

Wow just wow just wow. That has got to be theeeee most awesome, thorough, respectful, informational, patient, communicative, professional, impressive PC I ever seen. “Joe” is awesome.

FBI Safe Streets Task Force...

THIS is a great example of effectively communicating with the public.

For those who haven’t watched this and those who are new to these types of investigations, some procedural information is outlined/explained.

What I gathered from Joe’s answer to this in the PC re the warrant is that after the 2 cursory searches eliminated a child hiding, etc, there were things that “didn’t add up”, indicating that a deeper investigation would be needed; a SW best serves them to be able to fully continue legally and have all their i’s dotted for when the results of their investigation is later submitted within the court system. For example, they can specify we have a warrant for the sheets, bedding, shoes, etc etc and it can’t be said later that something was collected illegally, etc.

I am reminded of Savanna Greywind’s case re the initial cursory searches then return with warrant.

My guess is the crawl space.
