Hmmm it says in that article that they think she was placed in the trashanguish
in Tempe.
snipped from the article:
Based on the information and further investigation, police now believe Jhessyes body was placed in a trash receptacle in Tempe, prior to her reported disappearance on Oct. 11.
Glendale is approx. 30 minutes to Tempe. If Jerice doesn't have a car, how the hell did she get there???? Did someone drive her there, with a body in the car, or did she take a bus or some other form of public transportation?
Is there somebody she knows in Tempe?
Police in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale stopped short of saying who they think killed Jhessye Shockley, but Glendale police Sgt. Brent Coombs reiterated Wednesday that the girl's mother is the "No. 1 focus."
"We're in what we believed to be the worst-case scenario from the beginning," Coombs said.
Respectfully snipped
Then later on it says, "Johnson also said she does not believe her daughter did anything to hurt Jhessye. She said police are wasting a lot of time focusing on Hunter and not looking for the little girl.
"They are going to hit a dead wall. Just spending more time, money, the people's money, on the wrong thing. Keep looking but you need to expand. You're wasting time, valuable time is being wasted because you want to prove yourself right," said Johnson. "
This woman thinks if she blows enough of a smoke screen people won't find the truth. Accuse the police of not searching, accuse them of racism. LE wants to find this little girl and they hope to find her alive. It angers me when people accuse LE of not caring. It's obvious to me they care more about Jhessye than Grandma and Mom!
I wonder if Johnson said hit a "dead wall" or "dead end". That is a strange thing to say, imo. If I were LE I'd start checking inside walls in empty apartments and buildings. That could have been a "slip" of the tongue.
Ok, go ahead and laugh at me.........:floorlaugh:
Thank you, Donjeta. Jhessye is so beautiful it made me cry.
Well, there are some good parents in the state.
This (and all the recent cases) are completely over the top - all these parents who refuse to cooperate with LE, by coincidence also happen to be the last person to have seen their child and the children have just vanished off the face of the earth. Arrest the FGS!! Truth serum is not cruel or unusual punishment, let's put it to good use or offer the parents a final chance to come clean then use it if they decline. I'm so sick of this!
BTW Shirley/Susie: if you're reading here, get a clue! You and your racist rants, your daughter has hurt her children and you know it! So do we. If you really want to find Jhessye talk to Jerice.
He said shortly after the arrest of the girls mother, Jerice Hunter, in November for child abuse, investigators received reliable information regarding Jhessyes disappearance.
Based on the information and further investigation, police now believe Jhessyes body was placed in a trash receptacle in Tempe, prior to her reported disappearance on Oct. 11.
Coombs said the trash from that location is removed to a transfer station and eventually taken to Butterfield Landfill south of the Valley.
Investigators have been working to determine the viability of a landfill search at the location over the last few weeks, Coombs said.

Hunter was released from jail days later, and the charge against her was dropped. Prosecutors said at the time that they wanted further investigation and were worried that Hunter would not be eligible for a potential murder charge if she was convicted of abusing Shockley, a situation known as double jeopardy.
Okay, now that makes sense!
I live in Tempe and this is awful. But what if she took a cab to Tempe it would be less discrete... or maybe the grandmother drove her unknowingly? Tempe is a semi large town, I just wonder where she were to dump the body.
Considering it is a college town she may of done it on campus or around campus because the trash gets picked up there every other day.
Hopefully some new news is coming.
May she rest in peace.
Thank you, Donjeta. Jhessye is so beautiful it made me cry.
But why? Maybe I'm missing something here, but doesn't double jeopardy pertain to the same crime? Child abuse would be just one part of the charges; murder could come later and is different (or in addition to) the child abuse charge, correct?
I guess it could all tie in together if the child abuse led to her death. But it still seems different to me. :waitasec:
Legal minds, what do you guys think?
ETA: The most I know about double jeopardy is the movie with Ashley Judd... :innocent:
