The mother of 2-year-old Genesis Reid has been charged in connection with her disappearance, as Enterprise police continue an active investigation to determine the child’s whereabouts.
The Enterprise Police Department announced Tuesday afternoon that Adrienne Reid, age 33, has been charged with False Reporting to Law Enforcement Authorities, a Class C felony, following an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the initial missing-child report.
According to police, Reid reported her daughter missing at approximately 3:10 a.m. on February 16, stating the child was missing and the front door of their residence was open. The initial search of the surrounding area did not produce any information regarding the child’s whereabouts. As the investigation progressed, detectives identified inconsistencies in the information provided, prompting a more intensive investigation.
The Enterprise Police Department is serving as the lead agency, with assistance from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, US Marshals Service, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, the Coffee County Sheriff's Office, and additional local, state, and federal partners. Personnel from all divisions of the department remain actively engaged in investigative and search efforts.
Investigators are actively investigating an individual known as “Moriah” as a person of interest. Police emphasized that she is not considered a suspect at this time. Anyone with information regarding her identity or location is urged to contact authorities.
Officials also addressed the spread of misinformation surrounding the case, noting that speculation and unverified claims circulating online can interfere with an active investigation. The public is encouraged to rely on official updates released by the Enterprise Police Department.
A coordinated search effort remains underway. Police expressed appreciation for the community’s support, while asking that individuals not assigned to organized search teams remain outside designated search areas to protect the integrity of the investigation.
