I am glad they took me serious about Dennoa, when I called over the weekend. I told the lady I spoke to that the sandals had stuck out when I read her missing report. They do listen.

My heart goes out to the people who love these little girls - Karen Matusiewicz from Middletown, Del.; Deonna Shipman from Liverpool, N.Y.; and Celestia Langille from Taylor, Pa.

I can only imagine how hard the wait is for them. I want Baby Grace to get back her name, but I really hope she's not one of the precious little girls who were kidnapped by their fathers. Mostly I wish she was still alive and happy and growing up.

I aslo called in Chloe Combe-Rivas, I called this am. I know I should have done it before now. But been at work and fighting a cold and taking care of my 9 month old grandson. I did not speak to anyone, I had to leave o voicemail. I may be way off, but you just never know

I have the saddest feeling that Baby Grace is Deonna Shipman but I really hope I'm wrong.

Google searches for Jeffery Shipman show that he was involved with a few organizations that don't always seem to follow the rules.


Alliance for Non-Custodial Parents Rights(ANCPR)

Fathers 4 Justice (f4jusa)

At the time, he was using the email geraldjames @worldnet.att.net. These organazitions tend to be very close-knit. It really seems like someone in one of these organizations might know where Jeffery Shipman is or was last seen.

IMO, I don't think Jeffrey Shipman would be involved with any of those organizations if he took Deonna to hurt her.

I think she is Deonna Shipman, the reconstruction and her picture is dead on to me. Why do thing like this happen? it makes no sense at all and breaks my heart.

 

[interestedmom]

I agree, I believe it is Deonna, as well. The composite really favors this little girl. However, they are leaning more towards Karen, the one from Delaware. I don't think she favors Baby Grace as much as Karen does. I feel for any of the families missing their little girl. If Baby Grace turns out to be one of them, atleast her family will have closure. It is just awful that the fathers could do this. I do remember reading that one of the little girls were 1 of the 3 daughters missing. I guess next, as bad as I hate to say this,they will have to assume, if it is the girl of the other missing siblings, that he other ones are probably deceased as well. I can't believe this crazy world and how parents can do this to their own flesh and blood. But that's how the other parent's "get back" at the other one. It's just awful!!!!

What news article says they are leaning toward Karen? I would like to read it. Thanks

Hi Sable,

You probably know better than I. I didn't know anything about these organizations until recently when researching this case. ANCPR seems to have been founded by Lowell Jaks who kidnapped his own son and went into hiding in the Dominican republic. The underlying structure of the organization appears to be an underground support system for non-cusodial fathers who sometimes follow Jaks' suit. IMO, this seems very extreme and I can't picture a balanced person taking this course of action or supporting another in it.

If this is what happened with Deonna, I wonder how Mr. Shipman might react in light of the fact that Deonna must be very sad, perhaps even tearful or throwing tantrums because she misses her Mom.

if they are leaning towards karen, then what about the other 2 girls missing with her?

 

[Kymistry35]

To me, Deonna looks the most like Baby Grace, even if Karen is the closest in size. They are all so beautiful. My heart goes out to the families of these little angels. I just hope that answers come soon for all of them.

Celestia does look like Baby Grace, But what bothers me is her Missing date of Oct. 23. and Baby Grace was found Oct. 29 with her estimated death of 2 weeks prior, and the length of her hair..JMO
sorry had to edit date found to the 29th not the 31st

the teeth do not matcj Karen, do they? They match Deonna's with the little gaps.

poor little girl

IMO...... Celestia could have already been dead and gone before they reported her missing. They reported her missing a week prior to Baby Grace being found, but doesn't mean that she wasn't "missing" beforehand, unless they have witnesses to seeing this child before the 23rd. JMO......

I'm sorry, I told everyone wrong...... It is Celestia that they are leaning more towards, not Karen. I had it all mixed up. There is an article in the Galveston newspaper www.galvnews.com. It talks about it under "Could these girls be Baby Grace?"

 

[interestedmom]

Does anyone know where to find the sketch of Baby Grace? I can't find a sketch of her today. I had better luck yesterday.

I really think Baby Grace is Deonna. Didn't her missing details say her dad was a mental case and that they were headed South towards Mexico/Texas? Also, he is quoted as saying "If I cannot have her, no one will."
