I live here in Cecil County, to me this park is in an out of the way location. It abuts the Perry Point VA Medical Center, IKEA Warehouse close by. If I didn't live in the the county, I wouldn't know about this park. Its along the Susquehanna river where it meets the Chesapeake Bay. I expected this outcome when I saw the alert last night, so sad for this beautiful little girl.
 
Police said the case is now being treated as a homicide investigation by the Maryland State Police. No suspects have been identified and further details surrounding the girl's location have not been released by police.

“There has not been any confirmation of a homicide as investigators are still actively searching for leads and in areas of Cecil County where police believe the child resides,” Elena Russo, the spokesperson for the Maryland State Police tells PEOPLE in a statement. "Additional information will be released as it becomes available."
A 3-Year-Old Girl Vanished and Her Mom Claimed She Was Abducted — But Now Cops Say That Was a Lie

I suspect mother won't be publicly named until she is charged. Hoping LE have good leads (digital?) with phone and vehicle to piece together everywhere that mother has been since the last time Nola was witnessed living by someone else until the moment she made her false report. I am betting digital evidence is what took them to the park in Maryland.
 
Wow, just got back from babysitting my new ( first ) grandson and seeing this update although not shocked about the false story I'm once again let down my parents who are supposed to love their children. Now we're onto a possible homicide. Sadly, when I looked at the surrounding area of where this child was reported last seen/kidnapped this morning, there are a few water sources there, ponds etc. Sorry if I've repeated someone's post, I will backtrack and read in a bit.
 
I'm caught up here but heading out into the rabbit hole, for now I'm not seeing that the parents have been named nor arrested, anyone? I think we all had an immediate hinky meter go off on this one, I usually give the benefit of the doubt, very hard to do here. IMO

Edit: Well that didn't take long. UGH
