I guess it's not clear to me what this means: was CD living in his car; didn't have a lease; or maybe unrelated child support issues and didn't want to out himself to CPS?? MOONot sure where you're getting the "apparently absent father" from. He was not eligible for custody of the children because he did not have an address that CPS could visit.
It could just be that his living situation wasn't appropriate at that time to have over night visitation with his children.I guess it's not clear to me what this means: was CD living in his car; didn't have a lease; or maybe unrelated child support issues and didn't want to out himself to CPS?? MOO
Heartbreaking is right. See, that poor little guy knows some stuff. I can see why they are saying he doesn't know what happened to Maleah if only to protect him in the media, but a 6-year-old who lived in the same household and was present in the apartment with DV during the week Maleah died knows SOMETHING. PLEASE let part of the good that could come out of this absolute shitshow of tragedy be that her brother gets some good therapy and everything else he needs.Maybe I missed this one??? Some info I don’t recall seeing previously.

Little Maleah's case captures city’s attention as search draws to an end
Snipped...
...And evidence about the family continues to emerge in an ongoing custody dispute over the children.
Last Wednesday in the windowless courtroom, Associate Judge Ryan Salfiti focused on the two children left behind.
The boys had marked birthdays the week before in the care of other relatives — the youngest, who was with Vence's mother, turned 2 on May 19, while the older boy, who just finished first grade, turned 6 on May 21. He is living with his Davis' sister, who sleeps on her sofa so he can have the bedroom.
Davis, who has his son's first name tattooed on one arm and Bowens' name on another, wants custody of his son. Before custody is determined, however, the boy will see a therapist, the judge ordered.
The 6-year-old had seen his sister on the news, Davis said, but didn't know what was happening.
"There goes my sister," he said.
The boy had a nightmare recently in his aunt's home — sitting up repeatedly, with his eyes closed, shaking his head.
"No," he screamed. "No."

But don't they visit their children at neutral location when in custody of CPS?It could just be that his living situation wasn't appropriate at that time to have over night visitation with his children.
The children must have their own bedroom, and usually a parent needs proof that they have lived at a residence continuously for at least one year. It shows stability. Imo
snipped by me. I agree with you that he may have had it in his (dim) mind that getting her out of Texas was important if he wanted to get away with this. I mean, technically he wasn't totally wrong, since all of the intensive searching was fairly local and if he hadn't talked to DX she would probably still be there spread about by the mower with nobody the wiser.Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

I also didn't know parents are allowed to take children on overnight visits when CPS is the custodian. Thank you.

Well, I'm not sure exactly what their situation is, and the terms vary, but I know that having their own bedroom is a requirement and if the child is expected to have regular visitation they want to ensure that the parent can provide a stable home.But don't they visit their children at neutral location when in custody of CPS?
I also didn't know parents are allowed to take children on overnight visits when CPS is the custodian. Thank you.
Just to clarify - 49 minutes, 40 miles.
From Sugarland to IAH Concourse A to drop off a passenger I would estimate at least 45-55 minutes. IAH is a very busy airport at all hours.
Concourse A is American.
She could have checked in online from home. But going thru normal security (for those that don’t have TSA PreChek or Clear) can take quite a while).
During the week American has 7-8 direct flights from IAH to CLT.
First flight is at 5:30am and last flight is around 5:30pm.
Usually one around 11:49am - 12:10am.
YES - flights are always full. Zone 5 is where overhead starts getting full so there’s not a snowballs chance if she was in zone 9 - they usually announce that if you’re in zone 9 to come up and get your bag tagged for gate check.
Hopefully she got a nice middle seat in the rear near the bathroom and there was plenty of turbulence.
I wondered about that too. I don't understand the logic behind being in CPS custody, and living in the home that caused the CPS custody issue either. Seems kind of redundant to me. jmoBut don't they visit their children at neutral location when in custody of CPS?

I for one asked how far this case had reached because I was thinking of the truck stop near where the body was left. I was wondering if a trucker might have seen something and would connect it to Maleah's case.Just to clarify, she flew into Bradley airport in CT. Abbreviation is BDL. it's may be a 20 minute ride from there to Springfield, MA where the burial was.
Also, someone asked earlier how far this case has reached... Since alot of the questions revolve around her trip to MA, I can tell u that it has definitely reached many many people in Northern CT and Western MA, myself included.

Is there a link for the airport she used?
I've thought about this intersection of information too. I think BB2's affect when answering this question is interesting. She doesn't answer the question very directly, even when the reporter repeats it. I'm speculating, but I think she may still have been covering for/trying to believe BB (and by extension, DV) at the time of that interview, which was really early on in the case. I think it didn't happen exactly like she said, and she isn't usually a liar IMO (again, just a gut feeling!) so she didn't fully answer the question. I think she didn't see Maleah that day, because I think there WAS something wrong with her and she had always pushed BB to get medical care when Maleah wasn't okay in the past. Maybe she actually saw her over the weekend, or maybe she only saw BB and they just discussed Maleah, or maybe BB had said she would bring Maleah when she came to do laundry but then didn't at the last minute. Whatever the truth is, something is hinky about her answer, and I bet if you asked her today she would say something different.BB2 was asked in the only interview when she last saw Maleah and she thought about it and it was Monday when BB was doing laundry at her house before the trip on Tuesday.
Monday was also the day apparently CD was allegedly asked to take Maleah to the doctor and then BB told him he did not need to because DV was going to.
Did grandma think Maleah was fine when she saw her? Was she walking, talking, happy, bruise free, etc.?
I have not even drawn any conclusions from this yet, I just now for the first time realized the days of these two things line up.
I have to think about this.
