The KATC website says: "After meeting for more than two hours, Andrew did not respond when asked if kidnapping charges against Wilkerson were dropped. He also refused to answer when asked whether Keiosha was found."

I have quite a few questions I'd like to have answered about this case:
1) First - is Keiosha still missing or not? Seems like the chief would confirm if she was (or wasn't) so the public knows whether or not be on the look out for her.
2) What was Keiosha's relationship like with her aunt and cousins she went to visit that weekend? Did she want to visit them? Did she ever talk about them with other girls at the home for unwed mothers where she was staying? Did she know/talk about Wilkerson with her friends there?
3) Where is her baby?
4) How does Keiosha (a 15 year old single mom & ward of the state) have a cell phone (please note I am not implying she doesn't need one or anything like that, I just wonder about the logistics of who pays the bill)? Who is paying for it? Is she employed? Are her shady-acting relatives paying for her phone (so they can have control over her in some way)?
5) Has Keiosha ever told anyone who works at the home for unwed teen moms she feared/disliked her family or friends of her family that have since been arrested (or arrested then released)?
6) When and by whom was she reported missing? If she's a 15 year old ward of the state, seems like the home for unwed teen moms where she was living should have reported it right away when she didn't come back after the weekend visit (and again, where was/is her baby? could she leave the baby at the home while she left on a weekend pass?)?
With her mom in jail, having had a baby SO VERY young, and being a ward of the state, Keiosha has had a very tough life already. I hope that she is able to come home (to the home for teen moms if it is a good place for her), learn parenting skills that will break the cycles seen in her family, learn a skill/trade/pursue education, and live a long and happy life. Keiosha and her baby deserve it!
And I feel awful for her mother. I don't know what her crimes were for which she is jailed, but I can't imagine being locked up while your child goes missing. She's completely unable to do anything to help find her daughter.
