NC - Shaniya Davis, 5, missing from her home 11/10/09 #4

[mayelf]

When I watched the dad I just could see a broken man. Poor guy. His lady friend (wife gf whatever she is) basically had to lead him off like he was in a daze.

I also thought when I saw the picture of Shaniya with Mcneill that she was okay, maybe a little confused. It could be misleading because he could have told her anything that was comforting. Apparently from NG he was the sister's boyfriend or ex, so she probably did know him. From my experience kids can be very trusting and easily mislead.

What is he trying to say here?

"I've been asked that by 13 detectives and everybody, I don't know and I tell you like I told the detectives, I don't think the mother had anything to do with it," he said. "Do I feel there might have been some negligence somewhere, yes I do."

Coe says Antionette Davis, the child's mother, was his girlfriend and he says he wasn't at the mobile home when the child disappeared.

"Every day I was there the little girl was never in the living room," Coe said. "Every night when I slept there the little girl was never in the living room, so all I can say is educated people figure it out."

OK, so where was Coe sleeping ~ in the bedroom with Shaniya and her mother? I sure don't believe as mom's boyfriend he was in the living room. Is this negligence he's referring to more commonly called child abuse or sexual abuse? Or was Shaniya in with her aunt and that boyfriend, McNeill? MOO

I don't understand about the father letting her mother have her when she not been
involved with her in a couple years. He could not know what kind lifestyle the mother was living....he not even in the same state.
They got to be more to this.....the stories are so confusing.
I hope she found real soon.......like right now.

The fact that the article stated the father has been ruled out as a suspect, and the same has not been said about the mom. SPEAKS volumes to me.

Might he be calling the mother out as a liar? Mom says she put Shaniya on the couch at 5:30 a.m., but Coe says Shaniya was never in the livingroom in all the time he spent there. I don't know. Strange thing to say.

I'm educated but Coe's comment has me scratching my head. Maybe I'm trying to read too much into the words itself. "....never in the livingroom'? does that mean, never, ever in the livingroom? or never left in the livingroom to sleep? or what? So, the little girl was never in the livingroom in the daytime and never in the livingroom at night? What?:waitasec: I guess I'm not educated enough to figure this out. So, I'm thinking that he is saying that the little girl was not taken from the couch. IMO, not taken at all but given.

Noticed in the latest Fayetteville Observer article that McNeil's girlfriend was at the hearing.

His lawyer also states McNeil had no previous history with the girl's family members or Coe.

I remember reading that there would be a LE update @ 11:30. Wonder if it will happen...

I think Coe was saying she never slept in the livingroom.

I do wonder if he's saying the aunt put her on the couch. Easy access for the aunt's b/f to take her.

I dunno.

I thought that Shaniya's mother's mother's sister's exboyfriend is McNeill.

Very strange - I'll take a stab at deciphering it...

Is he saying that mom never put the girl in the living room - so maybe someone else did?

or

The little girl was probably not in the living room at all?

I wonder where she normally slept? She must have had a room - as opposed to sleeping with mom - cuz Coe doesn't make it sound like they were all in the same bed when he slept over.

Ok... no really, I think you might be educated lol :crazy: That sounds like a reasonable interpretation of what he's trying to say w/out coming out and saying it.

I think the reason the father is not a POI is due to him being out of town at the time Shaniya disappeared.

Noticed in the latest Fayetteville Observer article that McNeil's girlfriend was at the hearing.

So according to McNeill's lawyer, McNeill is a complete stranger to Shaniya's family? This gets stranger and stranger.

I agree. I don't think the father is guilty of anything except poor judgment in allowing Shaniya to go live with her mother. And I'm sure right now he's grief stricken and blaming himself. MOO

 

[kiki the parrot]

I thought that Shaniya's mother's mother's sister's exboyfriend is McNeill.

Coe is mom's bf, McNeil is aunt's EX bf. Hope you're feeling better friend...

I thought he was supposed to be the ex-boyfriend of Shaniya's mother's sister who rented the mobile home?

 

[winterrose]

The Dad just decided to take the life that she had lived for three to four years and just hand her over to her mother she's never lived with till three weeks ago?How about the family,the home,the school and friends she's known for most of her life?It doesn't make sense that he wouldn't check out who the mother was with,what the home looked like and the friends,what was the lifestyle of the mother now?I can't imagine handing my child over to someone that I love and loves and needs me and our family.This makes no sense,something is off here.

Not according to his lawyer.
