I watched today's press conference. Chief Art Acevedo said mom's murder occurred Tuesday morning between 6:30am and 10:30am. He didn't say who found her or what time. He confirmed the baby's name as Chamali Flores, birthdate November 5, 2017.
He said the possibility of a woman abducting baby is only a theory but is based on similar cases. Asks anyone who knows someone who suddenly has a baby or is suspicious to call it in, no lead is too small to follow up. Father is cooperating.
From FBI agent Douglas Williams: FBI is involved - deployed Rapid Response team. Says possible abduction is only theory right now but could be a woman who presents baby as hers.
Asking that mom's family, friends and neighbors come forward and speak to LE.
Question regarding father from press: LEO says he won't talk about what father said to them but says he has been cooperative, isn't "100% cleared" but has been cooperating, been helpful.
FBI agent clarified his name, uses several aliases but is Marcos Mariano Tomas Palacios.
Chief's message to the person or persons who has the baby: "If you want to spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder, you go right ahead but we're not going to stop, we're not going to stop searching, we're not going to stop looking for you because the Flores family deserves to have Chamali in their hands, she deserves to have a life with her family, with her relatives. The least we can do as a police department and community is leave no stone unturned or stop looking until we find her."

ETA: Msm continues to spell her name as Shamali with an "S" so I don't know who's correct. :dunno:
