Aliayah Lunsford's Still Missing After 18 Months
18 months ago Sunday, a three year old girl went missing from her Lewis County home. The disappearance of Aliayah Lunsford is tragic and still unknown.

911 Center: 911, what's your emergency?
Lena Lunsford: My baby's missing.
This was the call made by Lena Lunsford the morning of September 24th, 2011. She told police Aliayah was in her bed at 6:30 and was gone when she checked on her just a few hours later.
"I want her home with us where she belongs because we all love and miss her so much," said Aliayah's Aunt.

Probation orders Lena Lunsford from Wheeling to Clarksburg area

The lawyer for the mother of missing Lewis County toddler Aliayah Lunsford says a U.S. probation office plan to require his client to move from Wheeling to the Clarksburg area is unsound.

Federal Defender Brian Kornbrath filed the motion late Thursday in the case of Lena Lunsford. She’s on federal supervised release after serving prison time for federal food stamp fraud.

The motion notes that Kornbrath specifically asked that his client come from her prison term to Wheeling because of “extreme notoriety ... generated in the Clarksburg area” due to the investigation into the whereabouts of the still missing 3-year-old Aliayah Lunsford.

Hunters Asked To Search For Signs Of Aliayah

It's been more than two years since Aliayah Lunsford disappeared from her Lewis County home, bringing out volunteers from across the area to search for her. Tammy O'Connell was one of those out searching and she said there was never any question that she'd pitch in.

"It's just heartbreaking, children coming up missing with no explanation, it's just stupid for that to even happen. I just have a big heart and am passionate about what needs to be done right," O'Connell said.
