Have we seen reported exactly when and how Cupcake was discovered missing? Did the children report it first? Or did an adult start asking the kids where she was?

Not sure if this has been posted or if there is anything of substance to our thread; as I just began following this horrifying abduction. I am for the most part encouraged Inside Edition posted this. They ‘for the most part seem’ to do some fairly through investigative journalism.

3-Year-Old Girl Abducted From Birthday Party, Police Questioning 2 Persons of Interest

(‘Cupcake’s father)McKinney said he searched abandoned buildings and schools in the area of the Tom Brown Village overnight for any signs of his daughter.

Birmingham police and Jefferson County sheriff’s deputies on Sunday took the man they said was depicted in the surveillance photos into police custody and recovered a Toyota Sequoia at the Woodside Condominiums on Shadowood Circle off Roebuck Parkway across from the Cathedral of the Cross, AL.com reported.

The man’s girlfriend was also taken into police custody, authorities said. Police have called the pair persons of interest.

The couple’s detainment came after two condominium residents discussed the possibility that their neighbor was the man depicted in the photos released by police. They also reportedly agreed that an SUV parked outside the building looked like the vehicle police said the persons of interest were traveling in.

“We both called 911,” one of the residents, Ricardo McGhee, told the news site. “It wasn’t just me.”

She may be barefoot, as her shoes were found in the parking lot.

My Opinion Only

If, if, if, by chance, the Poi's are not involved. LE needs to make sure that Cupcake even left the T Brown apartments. Someone else there might have snatched her. And I am not talking about family.

It the 11 year old might have been afraid of getting into trouble for not watching Cupcake better. They might have come up with the abduction story to avoid that.

This has been my fear all along.
It’s why children shouldn’t be in charge of other children. Especially after dark, outside, in an unfamiliar place.
I hope that child has been assured that this isn’t his fault and it wasn’t his responsibility.

I keep going back to the fact that LE confirmed there was a delay in reporting her missing, like why? She’s 3 years old and she’s not where she’s supposed to be. I’m from the UK and we don’t have amber alerts as such but the quicker a missing persons report is out in the public domain the better!

Oh and the fact that every single other case I’ve followed whereby there was a ‘delay’ in informing the authorities it was almost always a sinister outcome. All MOO.

I am thinking this also...check the vicinity very well- especially retention ponds and outdoor buildings

• Kamille was with her mother, April Thomas, and other family members at the birthday party in a parking lot off 41st Place North.
• Children attending the party said a black male got out of an SUV and put Kamille in the vehicle.
• Birmingham police investigators have said from the start that they do not believe the abduction was the result of a custodial issue.

I’m sorry, I don’t think she left. I think she is at those apartments. IMO

 

[Simply Southern]

I don’t understand their just leaving a wanted car out in plain site. Something is so off!

I agree. Also, if they had turned in the TV just once they would have see the media blitz. Per locals the AA was rolling even during the football games.

His picture was on every channel, FB, Twitter. If he has friends in the area, surely one of them would have informed him.

Really odd.

When ask at this morning presser LE would not answer.

I agree. Something is off. I even wonder if POI are even involved. It makes no sense. At least use a rental car if you’re going to stay right I’m the area.

I’m not convinced of that but I am wondering if we are getting the whole story.... worried maybe she was missing longer than reported.

 

[Bravo]

I was sooooo hoping when I got home sweet little cupcake would be found safe and unharmed. Where are you???? Beautiful child.

 

[Hippiemomof5]

Yes but stranger kidnapping notwithstanding, there are many other dangers for an unsupervised 3 year old. MOO

Oh I don’t disagree... but a lot of those dangers are also present when the child is supervised as well.

 

[Stunned]

I’m not convinced of that but I am wondering if we are getting the whole story.... worried maybe she was missing longer than reported.

Me too. And a poor scared 11 year old had to come up with something.

 

[Bravo]

I am getting caught up but was it ever mentioned how many people attended this party?

 

[Doghairrules]

She's beautiful. God, I hope she is safe. :sob:
