What's known is this: Stokes, who last week was charged in Las Vegas with murder in the brutal stabbing death of her fiance's 10-year-old daughter, was indicted in 1994 on aggravated assault charges by a Mississippi county grand jury for allegedly attacking a former lover with a razor blade...
Yes! I remember when that happened! Always wondered what happened to her. Last I heard, I think the foster family said her birth mother took her to Mexico.
The Clark County Coroner's office on Friday afternoon ruled the girl's death a homicide from multiple stab wounds. Coroner Mike Murphy said Jade was identified by facial recognition, her clothing and dental records. A DNA analysis is pending.
Stokes was rebooked on murder and kidnapping charges...
Prosecutors said in Justice Court that DNA found in Stokes' car and home was being analyzed. Once authorities have confirmation the DNA belongs to 10-year-old Jade Morris, Stokes will be rebooked on murder charges.

"Sources told the Review-Journal that police treated the investigation into Jade's disappearance as a likely homicide since Friday night, when Stokes was arrested at the Bellagio casino after she slashed the face of a blackjack dealer."...
That field is right across from a McDonald's. I have this horrible thought. she took her to eat and then killed her. If BS was mad at the dad, don't take it out on a little girl.
I used to live near the site where they found her. Mostly desert, tho there's a large shopping center right there. That site and the volunteer search site are completely on opposite ends of town. Sad

Metro clarified the volunteer group searching for Jade Morris this morning. It's a volunteer group acting WITHOUT police information.

.@lvmpd is still calling Jade Morris case a missing person case. RR...
I figured that had to be where BS's apartment probably was, because that is far from the outlet mall. Couldn't figure out why they'd go there or why they were told to go there.
Was it this one?

Sadly, it is not unusual to find dead children in Dumpsters around here. Seems it happens all the time. So, that would make me think they have...
Hello all. I've lurked on websleuths forever, but finally chiming in.
I also live in LV and this case is really bothering me. I think the reason the local media hadn't said anything before is because they didnt actually know about it. I think the police has just recently made it public. Now...
