FOX 56 News spoke with Amber Lopez, a family member of the two, who said Slaughter is Darnell’s cousin and has had custody of her since birth. Lopez said Slaughter, 24, was last heard from around a week ago, but no one has seen Chloe since school started.

doe this mean they can issue an amber alert now that they have a vehicle description they believe is involved or can they not do so since BS is Chloe's legal guardian?

concerned about Chloe, not seen since September is very worrisome.

Wondering how a 20 year old was given custody of an infant (even as a cousin). Were there no other relatives?

yeah, that strikes me as a lot of responsibility for a 20 year old. Where is little Chloe? late September to now is a long time for nobody to have seen her. Particularly if CPS was involved with her life (assumption here).

agree, the comments under the sheriff's dept post are worth a look and do not give one a warm fuzzy. Makes me question even more how this young lady got custody of her niece.

This is terrible! I hope my hinky meter is wrong, but I fear for both of them.

 

[baorin]

I wonder where they found the car...

 

[swanniee11]

I'm glad they found the car. I'm sure they will go through it with a fine tooth comb. I am very concerned for Chloe.

I can't see what has been posted on social media, but this doesn't sound good. I hope by some miracle that little Chloe will be found safe.

Slaughter and Hayes have been arrested, according to the Whitley County SO Facebook page.
They've also recovered a body, believed to be Chloe's, in the back yard of the house.
Trying to find a link.
Terrible. Fly high, beautiful girl.

Mugshots and charges are showing up on Whitley County Detention Center's website.
One of Hayes's charges is possession of heroin.
The abuse of a corpse charge hurts my heart and soul.
