[Tillicum]

Does Amber have a brother? I know in an earlier video a man spoke in it (about parents laughing) - the article states he lives with Amiah's uncle (if I remember correctly). I remember her mentioning family and sisters in early video. I guess it could be a great-uncle of Amiah though.

Eta-article mentioning uncle:

The search continues for Indianapolis baby, Amiah Robertson

Eta- I thought the male in video removing things from house looked fair or brown headed other person looked like Amber to me. Doesn't Amiah's father have dark hair?

All above - IMHOO

You're the best!
I think it's worth noting that the time stamp for March 20 E, RL's release, is 4:40 pm, given the preceding C.

 

[CSIDreamer]

This whole thing is on my last nerve. I swear one of the photos is a snapchat filter. That baby doesn't look like that in other pictures. Why hand out a filtered picture that doesn't look like the baby? Agh.

 

[Beneath.the.pale.blue.sky]

I agree. I thought about doing this as well, and it is a firm "no" for me. It isn't advisable and could quite possibly anger the locals and police as well. It is tough to determine private vs public property, and people in these parts (anywhere/anyone) do not want their homes, businesses, communities to be associated with this type of crime. Drugs and violence are one thing. The gangs are territorial and pride themselves on being attached to certain areas. All just my opinion, but I wouldn't do the photos. We can likely make some great screenshots from GooglenEarth. Those are public domain. Wouldn't they be allowed here?

@margarita25

great job and please add when Amber lawyered up as this is crucial to this case.

Thank you kindly! Definitely a worthwhile read in what began and has sadly remained a very inconsistent case. Thanks, mom! Just my opinion, but she has to know more than she is sharing. Whether she is afraid for her own wellbeing or not, her job is to care for her baby first. She's protecting herself and pretending to care, all the while she knows her daughter doesn't need protection of being kept alive as she already knows her baby's demise. MOO

I agree. I thought about doing this as well, and it is a firm "no" for me. It isn't advisable and could quite possibly anger the locals and police as well. It is tough to determine private vs public property, and people in these parts (anywhere/anyone) do not want their homes, businesses, communities to be associated with this type of crime. Drugs and violence are one thing. The gangs are territorial and prime themselves on being attached to certain areas. All just my opinion, but I wouldn't do the photos. We can likely make some great screenshots from GooglenEarth. Those are public domain. Wouldn't they be allowed here?

Exactly! I work on the West side at a factory really close to this area. If I need gas or anything before going in, I make sure to stop in a better neighborhood first. Workers there have been victims of crimes at stoplights, ATM's and gas stations around there. I wouldn't press my luck.

This whole thing is on my last nerve. I swear one of the photos is a snapchat filter. That baby doesn't look like that in other pictures. Why hand out a filtered picture that doesn't look like the baby? Agh.

Thank-you. All recent photos of baby were heavily filtered- yesterday one showed up that looks like the only filter is stars or bubbles or something around her head. It was bothering me that even national news outlets, and the official "missing" flyer is such a surreal image.

At 9 months old my eldest was 12lb (tiny girl she’s made up for it now she’s almost 10) my 2nd was 18lb and my youngest was 25lb. All healthy and loved their food but the fact that this little girl was 13lb, was being brought up in questionable circumstances, her mother comments how she hopes she’s not being starved, add that to the fact she’s now missing and a clearer picture starts to emerge. I hope I’m wrong but I feel like Amiah was let down by those closest to her. MOO

Especially the discrepancies in timelines, and when She last saw Amiah. was it Thurs,Fri, or Sat.
I have a horrible feeling her claiming Thurs, is the last time she saw her is the last time she actually saw her alive. Not the last time she actually saw her. Per the neighbor seeing her carrying, and speed walking Friday night.
MOO.

Those filters make her eyes so huge her features are completely distorted. Maybe her grandpa has some better pictures. Shes only 2 months younger than my own petite little grand daughter, along with living in Indiana, I'm taking this super personal.

 

[MissMalowe]

Thought the following things the mom said were odd to begin with, but the more I read others thoughts here on them as well as the more I thought about it myself, the more odd & eery they became, imo;

"He said if I would be alone with him he would tell me where she is" (but she was too afraid to be alone with him to get that answer)

We're talking about her 8 month old daughter; not tht location of a backpack, car keys, or a cell phone. Any mother with even the lowest levels of a mother's protective instincts would feel the reward was worth the risk. Not Amber apparently.

This next observation may be me picking apart something and overthinking it way too much, but if referring to an (alive) 8 month old baby, wouldn't you phrase it as "he won't tell me who has her or who he left her with or who is hiding her" The phrasing above suggests you are presuming the baby is alive and well. The phrasing "where she is" leaves way more room for other terrible possibilities such as in a ditch, in the water, tossed away like garbage" The kinds of things that wouldn't mean a baby is alive and well.

Could be a Fruedian slip, could be that she is just simple minded, or could be me over-analyzing it far too much and making a mountain of a molehill but was just something I noticed.

Which brings me to her other comment of worrying about her "being beaten or starved." I found that extremely odd because family of victims in cases tend to usually lean more towards the optimistic view of things in terms of possibilities of what has happened to their loved one.

When the outlook doesnt seem good to outsiders such as us, it usually seems that family has a much harder time accepting or seeing that. Not Amber.... Right away she feels her baby is being beaten or starved. No Plea on news interviews to whoever has her to return her either, just for the public to call her or police if they see Amiah.

Odd

She either knows what's up or at the least, knows that someone very close to Amiah has it in them to beat or starve her. That's pretty telling considering as the mother, she would have direct control over the people she chooses to surround Amiah with.

Responsible, Involved or knows. Those are the only 3 options I can entertain.

G) Amber says she went to this location on Wednesday, found items, and called the tip in herself to police:

“Wednesday, police searched an area on the west side after getting a tip close to the investigation. That tip brought them to the banks of the White River near McCarty and Sadie Streets.

Baby Amiah's mom, Amber Robertson, told Eyewitness News she's the one who called it in to police.

"All I can do is sit and think of things that my daughter loves," said Robertson, who said she's had more on her mind, like trying to remember past conversations with her boyfriend, who she said was supposed to take 8-month-old Amiah to the babysitter's last Thursday, but never got there.

"Robert, a long time ago, told me about 1907. That it was somewhere where he and his friends used to hang around and he drove me by here one time," said Robertson.

So she went back there Wednesday afternoon.

That's where she says she found items that belonged to her daughter and boyfriend, so she called 911. The call brought out IMPD and IFD's dive team to collect possible evidence.

"They discovered some items that could be related to the case, however that is not conclusive at this time," said IMPD Sgt. Jim Gillespie.“

Hi everyone.

Checking in from the UK, I've followed this from the beginning but must admit I've just skimmed through the last couple of days as it's been a rough few days on some of the UK based threads so been concentrating on those.

I can't believe that a week on there is still no news on this poor baby!

The family dynamic is really confusing and I've found it difficult to follow who is who!!

Just hope she is found soon.

10. Saturday, March 23:

Why are the police the only ones that say that Amiah was last seen on Saturday if the mom says Thursday or Friday? In one of the versions the mother said she last saw her when the Motel 6 thing happened on Friday night. What do the police know about Saturday’s sighting? I think this would help clear up some of the timeline.
