There was a Jane somebody who supposedly saw her.... Think it was a Jane Henry... Not 100% sure though and I'm on my phone so not able to check!
Jane Harry, a neighbour of Tia's grandmother Christine Sharp, said: "Last time that I saw her was on Friday afternoon at about midday when she was leaving her grandma's and walking up the street here.
"She was wearing a white top and leopard print leggings. But she had nothing on her, nothing in her hands, but she seemed happy, happy at that time."
She added: "I saw her on Friday. She was here all last week playing along here with the kids, mucking in and riding bikes.
"She is the same age as my son Jake. She was here all last week playing in the street with a group of other kids, they were all happy and riding their bikes and they seemed fine.
Talk about name coincidence - first we had Paul Meehan (Craig Meehan was Karen Matthews' partner) now we have "Maxine Carter, Tia's aunt" - so similar a name to Maxine Carr, Ian Huntley's partner!

The only thing we know now is that Hazell was the last person to see her.
I'm just going from the information we had up to that point, so yes. The neighbour's sighting had never been corroborated and Grandma claimed she was at work at the time Tia went missing. Based on the available information up until then, Hazell was the only one to have been known to have been with Tia when she disappeared.We don't actually know that, do we?

It's confusing. First of all it was implied she'd been with Hazell and Tia on the Thursday evening, then the next day it transpired she hadn't seen Tia in 24 hours because she'd been working. I assume the police would have checked that she really was working that night?True. But Grandma's arrest makes me wonder about her alibi. Was she really at work Thursday night? Or even on Friday?
