Dog digs up child's foot: Alabama

[jennjenn]

This is a long shot, but Alabama is a neighboring state. All reports I can find do indicate it is a child's foot, but do not give any indication of the age of the child. I thought I would post it here. Peace and loving thoughts go out to this little one, whomever they are.

Oh bless that child.

Oh lord, I hope they find the rest of the remains so that sweet baby can be laid to rest, whoever it is. What is this world coming to?

I looked on missing childrens websites and could not find any children ( teens yes children no ) that are missing.

Unfortunately,I am sure our dedicated posters in the missing forum could find many missing children

This is most likely not Caylee. It is 636 miles away. An 11 hour drive one way.

I'm not ruling out anything at this point. She could have drove there, isn't there a time frame that she is missing? I hope it isn't, but I hope that we don't have another dead child out there too.

I instantly thought of Haleigh Culwell... but she has been missing for over a year and was 11 at the time.

Bringing my post over from the "Theories" thread...

Dog digs up child's foot, police look for body

RUSSELLVILLE, Alabama (AP) -- Police say a dog in northwest Alabama dug up a child's severed foot -- and an investigation is under way to find the child.
Chris Hargett, the police chief of Russelville, Alabama, said Monday that his officers got a weekend call from an area resident who says the foot was dragged up by a dog.
Hargett says an orthopedic surgeon confirmed that the foot belonged to a child and now a search has been launched in hopes of finding other remains.

Russellville is 10 hours away from Orlando...wonder if cell phone pings put CA around there. Could be why she brought some extra gas with her by way of the gas cans she took from her parents.

I read in another post that the foot was of a "child/small adult", so for me, that rules out Caylee, as she was no where near the size of a "small adult!"

But wasn't it only a few days old?

I put this on the missing forum already.

Says in the article an Ortho-surgeon confirmed it was a child's foot.

Ok. BUT I have two questions. What is the definition of "child?" and how fresh is the foot??

The chief said anyone who knows anything about the remains or about a missing child or small adult that has not been reported is asked to contact Shoals Area CrimeStoppers at 386-8685 or any local law enforcement agency.

If they are including small adult in that search than I doubt it would be Caylee. They also stated that the foot was not badly decomposed.

Thank you! I knew that I had read "small adult" somewhere!
