I hope one of these people talk themselves into a jail cell.

Thing that gets me is it seems there is a family consensus that something was done with her. That others know what happened to her. Where are you, baby??

I'm really happy to see the little boy has gotten his belly button tended to...

Me, too! It seems they were trying to get custody back just a couple of weeks ago, so it likely wasn't taken care of by the people who should have been responsible, but I am glad he got medical care! We should watch very closely. Someone is going to give up something big soon. I can feel it. They are starting to get comfortable and talk. This was not a random disappearance. Someone knows something! Did anyone else catch that he said Melissa was the one who wrote the doctor's note???

mrsobrien · Dec 17, 2014

Yeah, it's sad that his medical problems are being handled by the state (right?), but I'm just happy it's being fixed by any means. The pics when he was a baby were so sad!
I can't watch the videos on my tablet until i update the flash player or something, but I'm trying! I hope you're right about a break coming.

Thank you everyone for keeping up .

Find Relisha !

Cinnamon · Dec 17, 2014

I can't watch the videos until later (assuming the page isn't locked down by then), but I've NEVER thought this was a random disappearance. I think Relisha was given or sold to KT by MYT and/or SY. Or she was taken by KT after being allowed to go with him. In either scenario, the perp(s) didn't count on the school counselor reporting her missing and contacting child services, who were then able to get LE to issue the AA. I think the perp(s) were hoping this would just be "another" unnoticed missing child case that would eventually go away. Well, they were WRONG about that!

I believe Relisha is still alive; I've never thought she was dead. I believe she is out there, and she needs to be found!!!

Where are you Babygirl? We have not given up on you! Praying for you every day!!!

FIND RELISHA!!! Somebody knows something, and they need to start talking!!!

SCHMAE · Dec 17, 2014

I'm torn on that because if she were ' sold' , I cannot imagine her life being very rosy today. People do not buy 8 yr old children to take to Disney World and treat like a princess and raise as their own, do they?
I pray shes' alive and " WELL". I don't know if I can pray that she's alive and being mistreated in the manner that I would suspect someone sold would be treated.
Wherever she is today, I pray she is dancing and smiling and happy and warm and will never know one ounce of pain again. That's where she is

I think it is highly likely she is alive. I think it is highly unlikely she is well. I think she is being sold over and over, unfortunately. In the words of Michelle Wright, my hope for her is that one day she can be a VICTOR, not a VICTIM. But first, she needs to be found. These people are talking! They should be hauled in and questioned over and over every day until they get some little break. Of course, I do know sometimes, they let them get comfortable and start putting little info in order to get a lead to bite on. I hope and pray this is what is going on. She would be such an easy case to not give much priority to, since there is not a strong family searching, calling, being a squeaky wheel and since the last known person to see her is now deceased. I don't want that for her! She is worth so much more. I want someone to fight for her! If I was in DC, I might have to unofficially adopt her and be her squeaky wheel. I feel so helpless for this child who I believe has gone through so much, and likely still is.

Maybe it's appropriate, in a season focusing on one's love of family and search for peace, to begin making origami cranes for Relisha.
Think of a thousand--or a hundred--or ten cranes floating on the wind, suspended from branches or tent frames or statues or fences, across the continent, holding out hope that this beautiful child finds joy and peace.

Oh, flock of heavenly cranes,
Cover Relisha with your wings.

You know, time makes some people forget things. Some becoming chummy chummy with Relisha's parents, but they forgetting all those details from the past year that has happened. They forgetting that Relisha was regularly seen with Tatum. That the young boy's hernia wasn't fixed, and there is no way that all people didn't see and know about that! They forgetting that Relisha's parents were so high they didn't even seem to know or care where Relisha was! How could you go a month and not call or talk to your kid? How could think she was in another state, and not be concerned? So many things are being forgotten..... that doc's note, not wanting to report Relisha as missing, not knowing or not caring that she wasn't in school...no had to know she wasn't going to school because that was the reason that doc note showed up, but still wasn't concerned enough about Relisha to demand to see her? To demand she be brought back? And to this day, continue to defend Tatum? Not once have I heard anger towards him from the family. Even after all this time!!! Either someone knows what the deal/contract/meaning behind Relisha being with Tatum, she was sold to him or traded for drugs or something, or they honestly just didn't care, and still don't! JMO!! But after following this case both here, and through social media...I'm just disgusted as I was the day we knew she was missing...a month after she really went missing. How easily some forget these facts, and are conned into believing what they are told now. No, my emotions are the same as that day, and my thoughts haven't changed much.

I'm sorry Relisha, you deserved a family that loved you. I'm truly sorry.

Truuuuuuuuuuue true true true true!!!! Truth! If there is one common theme through the whole lot of them, it is that not one single one of them have EVER taken one ounce of responsibility for ANY part they played. Even if you think someone else is mostly to blame, where is the "I should have never..."

I've listened to Serials & this would be amazing. I hope it happens. Relisha deserves to have this caliber of journalism focused on her.

Can you imagine if this were to happen on a regular basis?

A girl can dream...

A lost Mother and Daughter- In the case of missing 8-year-old Relisha Rudd, emotional scars transcend generations

Where the hell are my kids? asks Young, a question that could apply not only to her three sons in foster care, but also to her daughter, Relisha Rudd, who disappeared in March at age 8.
