Found Safe VA - Emma Kennedy, 7 Months, Danville, 3 June 2018

[alyssa5597]

At or after 3 am if I understand correctly. Abduction was at 7:55 pm.

Saw 3am on a bunch of MSM too. I created thread around 12:50am CST and the Amber Alert was issued very shortly before that. But yes, still a gap in time there.

Thank you. Good to know it was faster than reported.

And unfortunately it was at a time where hardly anyone is out driving to spot the car.

Yes. But still not fast enough. Ugh.

Yes. But still not fast enough. Ugh.

Exactly. I understand there is a process to go thru but it has to be faster. So many times the child is deceased before the alert is issued.

I have a really sick pit in my stomach about this one

“At 1:20 a.m. Monday, Virginia State Police issued an Amber Alert for 7-month-old Emma Grace Kennedy...

State police decided it was too early in the morning to activate that type of alert on your phone, according to state police public relations manager Corinne Geller.

Geller said one of the concerns was that by pushing the alert out to phones that early, people would opt-out of future alerts.”

Why did I not receive an automatic alert on my phone regarding today's Amber Alert?

Following ...
What I really do not understand was why this woman was meeting him to discuss custody issues when his rights are revoked / terminated (?) right now. Maybe it is just me, but if this was my child's father there is no way I'd meet up with him alone to go over a custody issue. I'd save that stuff for court. There has to be more than what has been released.

I'm really scared for this poor innocent baby.

ITA @madhatterisbackagain here is video of Emma’s aunt from local media. I’m completely baffled as to why the mother would have met with him at all.

If he is constantly threatening them, why would the mother agree to take the baby and meet with this man? Is it possibly bad reporting? Now if this guy was stalking the mother that would make more sense.

ETA: Confirmed. It was bad reporting.

What led to an Amber Alert, alleged kidnapping of 7-month-old Emma Grace Kennedy

In the past few weeks, Metzger said, another family member would always be with Murphy and Emma when they left home; however, Sunday night, that was not the case when Murphy stopped at the Kwik Stop.

Metzger said apparently Kennedy was following Murphy and then kidnaped Emma at 7:55 p.m. Sunday.

I couldn't imagine finding out your baby's father is a monster. She is definitely a victim, and he took advantage of her being alone last night.

 

[dyannaON]

Scared for Emma. It doesn’t seem like he has much to lose. Out on bail. What is his end plan here. How can he possibly think he can raise Emma and everyone will just be lah-dee-dah about it all. I hope he has family that are good people that will help him the right choices. Dude bring your daughter home.

Cash reward offered for the safe return of Emma Grace Kennedy

The Danville Police Department said Monday afternoon that a private citizen, Scotty Owen, has stepped forward and offered a $1,000 cash reward for the safe return of Emma Grace Kennedy, a seven month old from Danville.

I'm not one who likes to blame the victim, but I am very confused. If he is constantly threatening them, why would the mother agree to take the baby and meet with this man? Is it possibly bad reporting? Now if this guy was stalking the mother that would make more sense.

According to the sister she was not meeting him. He must have been following.

So it WAS bad reporting and he WAS stalking her. This is getting scarier as time goes by.

 

[Bravo]

Link above states Mom met the at a Nursing Home where she worked. I pray he didn't work there.

Yes and a precious baby is getting caught up in the Dad's $hitstorm. Hoping he will just drop Emma off somewhere safe and take off......
