Cathy, can you elaborate on what you know? It appears what you know is not what was reported in the media. And what the media got came from LE. You certainly have my attention.
I am married to a relative of Mya, so you can say she's my niece by marriage.
I'm so sorry for your loss. She seemed to have been a sweet girl. How is her family doing? Is there anyone under suspicion for Mya's death?
Yes, everyone in that house is a suspect in our eyes. I can't really give out the details but I will answer as much as I can. I personally don't believe the killer lived in the house but I will say that most fingers point in that direction.
The friends house or the house that Mya was living in? It's been unclear to me whether she went to her friend's house and if she even made it there at all. And no worries on what you can and can't answer.
The house she was living in...
I can't judge her father, as I have never been in such situation but why would you pick your injured child up? When he lifted her, ALL of her guts fell out of her body. It is common sense to not move an injured person but then again, I can't speak for a parent who sees their bleeding child in an alley.
Well that would explain why it never made sense that she would have left the house on her own at that age. Does LE have thier sights on anyone? Or have they just let this case slip on by?
That's a hard question to answer. I could maybe see picking them up, but once I saw how bad it was I would definitely not move them. Refresh my memory, her father and her uncle took her to the hospital themselves right?
It was reported that DNA was collected from some of the neighbors. Was DNA collected from those in the household and were they cleared? Or is the DNA still backlogged?
Yes, just about everyone submitted DNA. Even a kid whose little sister played with Mya had to submit DNA.
Thanks. Were they all cleared because of DNA? Is there anyone who refused and did not give DNA?
I don't think her father was involved BUT, I can honestly say that I understand why others think he is guilty. It certainly does raise the question "why did he look into the alley". If your child is missing for 10 minutes, would you search an alley before going to her friend's house? It does raise questions.
