ID - Robert Manwill, 8, Boise, 24 July 2009 - #1

[Angel Who Cares]

From Angel's post above, am I the only one who thinks Robert's mom got off relatively easy for cracking her baby's skull?

BBM

"According to court records, Jenkins "did willfully inflict" the wound "by striking the child's head on a surface, causing a fracture to the child's skull," on Oct. 19, 2008. She was sentenced to 29 days of work release, fined $75.50 and put on probation for two years."

She was fined $75.50? Why does that just seem absurd?

SleuthyMama I was furious when I saw that was all she got for causing a fracture to a child. I can hardly contain my anger that this is all she got for doing this. It's a disgrace....no wonder so many children end up murdered, missing, scarred for life...where is the protection from these evil monsters?


O/T: This is a bit of topic, but my niece who is now 24 when she was close to around 2yrs old.......had her skull fractured by a babysitter. This babysitter not only cause her a skull fracture, but she had shaken eyes syndrome, abrasions on her knees & elbows(like she dragged her across carpet)!!!
Her injuries were = to falling from a 3rd story building. This evil evil monster tried to say that my niece was sleeping on the couch & rolled off & that's when she noticed that her eyes were rolling back & losing consciousness. :shakehead:

To try & make this short for you all.
LE & detectives didn't charge her with anything at all! :furious: They said that because there were no witnesses in the home that they didn't have enough proof that she did this to my niece. Though my niece was at the age where she was able to tell us that the :curses: hurt her. She was in intensive care for weeks. LE said they knew she did this to her & ruled out that my sister or b-i-l had anything to with it. The babysitter when interviewed claimed that my niece was acting out of ordinary when my sister dropped her of that morning.

She was a new babysitter & that she was interviewed many times & all of her references checked by my sister & b-i-l. The onky choice they had was to sue her in a civil case which is still on going to this day.

This also somewhat explains why I'm so devoted to so many cases here ay WS's.
I want justice for every harmed child in the world.

Sorry for the vent all!

Day Three Of Neighborhood Search

They may be strangers, but hundreds of volunteers are working towards one goal -- to find Robert Manwill.

This is the third day the community has swept the neighborhood. Despite the heat, and despite the possibility of finding something you would never want to find, hundreds of volunteers are still searching for this missing little boy.

darlin gal I'll check to see if they are working on this case. If they aren't I'll put in a request for Robert's case.
I'll give them all of the birthdates you all have found. With credit to those of course who found them all! :wink:

I'll check on it now....I'll also message them to ask if they can look at this case...not just submit a request for them. Our astrologers are truly amazing....I hope that someday LE starts to use forsenic astrolgy on all missing cases. They are all truly gifted & we should all be honored that they are a part of WS's.

O/T: Sleuthy Mama Thanks so much for your prayers. My niece still has damage to this day from the skull fracture....she has to be careful to not have her head hit in the same area....the bones never heal all of the way when someone has had a skull fracture. So far she hasn't had any other lasting problems, but still to this day has to see a neurologist every year to check for any problems. The DR's said that she could have problems anytime in the future from the fracture...they just don't know. She also had several brain bleeds & was in a coma the 1st few days after this happened to her.

The babysitter that had stopped watching her before the evil monster when this happened took her back to babysit her for my sister. We wanted things to be as normal as they could be before this happened. I felt so sorry for the orginal babysitter cause she to this day blames herself for stopping babysitting for her. We all tell her it wasn't her fault....it was the monsters fault not hers. My sis & b-i-l did everything one is to do before hiring a new babysitter & this still happened.

Mom suspected of seriously injuring infant

Boise Police says they were called to a local hospital in October on a suspicious injury to a child call. Investigators determined that on the previous day a child under the age of one at the time had been injured at a East Boise home.

Authorities say the boy received what appeared to be serious head injuries during the incident. The child was turned over to the custody of State Health and Welfare.

After a detailed investigation, detectives forwarded the case to the Ada County Prosecutor's office for review.

On Tuesday, Ada County deputies arrested the infant's mother, Melissa Jenkins, 29, for the felony injury to a child warrant.

This case grabbed my attention because I have an 8 year old son and would be literally beside myself in anger, worry and despair if he went missing for 3 hours, let alone 3 days. The conflicting stories initially reported, about the "party" at 9:30 at night, really bother me. Not knowing exactly what he was wearing seems VERY odd considering he was under supervision and it was in the evening as well. The suggestion that he might be "hiding" somewhere is not comforting to me, it suggests he had reason to fear returning to the home. My first thought was that he may have tried to find his way back to his Dad's home, but leaving at night really doesn't make sense (even for an 8 year old). I would expect him to "sleep on his plan" and leave at daybreak. Even so, I was surprised the search area was kept to the immediate area (outside of interviews with SOs). The limited area suggests that LE has a predominant suspicion that excludes "runaway". From the minute I saw the first report, I had an awful feeling and it's only gotten worse. Just today, media outlets have begun reporting on the mother's criminal past.

I posted all the info on where to meet if there are any locals here at WS's that are wanting to help in the search on Friday. I wish this size of a search was right away....not Friday. Today...tomorrow, but why wait till Friday???
I know it takes time to prepare a massive search, but the sooner the better.

If anyone else has the birthdates for Robert's mom, her bf, or his father could you post them for me to add to the request in the astrology forum. Along with place of birth is needed for them to do more accurate charts too! TIA

Hundreds of volunteers sought for Manwill search
UPDATED: 02:35 PM MDT on Wednesday, July 29, 2009
<snipped>
The Boise Police Department is ready to mount a large-scale search for missing Robert Manwill, and is asking for a big push of community volunteers Friday.

Three 3-hour shifts are being set up - and officers are hoping 700-1,000 volunteers will turn out and help scour an area on the Boise Bench near where Manwill went missing.

"The Boise Police Department is asking for volunteers to help us in a one day push to find Robert," BPD Deputy Chief Jim Kerns said. "This will allow the BPD to put in place a massive strucuture to handle the... volunteers"

Kerns also says a better timeline is coming together regaurding Manwill's whereabouts, after more than 5,000 man hours and hundreds of volunteer hours.

Police continue to refuse to answer media questions - and it is unclear why crews are waiting until Friday for the large-scale effort.

Trail of tragedy follows family of missing 8-year-old Boise boy
In the hunt for Robert Manwill, an anguished family legacy emerges.
Published: 07/29/09
<snipped>
On the fifth day of an exhaustive search for a missing Boise boy, court documents revealed a family tale of abuse, tragedy and more.

Robert Manwill's mother is on probation for fracturing the skull of Robert's infant half brother, a boy the state removed from her custody.

Robert's mother's boyfriend has been convicted of burglary, battery and possession of drug paraphernalia, and is banned by the courts from being alone with Robert's half sister.

Robert's father, meanwhile, has already lost a son. In 1993, his first wife stabbed their 4-year-old boy in the chest. She spent 10 years in a federal prison after pleading guilty to voluntary manslaughter.

Boise police won't talk about the family or the details contained in the court documents.

ISP Outlines AMBER Alert Criteria
Story Created: Jul 27, 2009 at 4:38 PM MDT
Story Updated: Jul 27, 2009 at 5:36 PM MDT
<snipped>
When 8-year-old Robert Manwill went missing Friday, Boise police officers requested an AMBER alert through Idaho State Police but the request was denied.

But Dawn Peck with The Idaho State Police says Boise investigators had no solid leads the child had indeed been abducted, a top requirement for an alert.

"Without any evidence of abduction, we could not proceed with an AMBER alert," said Peck.

According to the Department of Justice, AMBER plans require law enforcement to confirm an abduction prior to issuing an alert. This is essential when determining the level of risk to the child. Clearly, stranger abductions are the most dangerous for children and thus are primary to the mission of an AMBER Alert.

The Justice Department, on the AMBER website, says to allow activations in the absence of significant information that an abduction has occurred could lead to abuse of the system and ultimately weaken its effectiveness.

The main criteria for an AMBER alert are: reasonable belief by police an abduction has occurred, imminent danger of serious injury or death, sufficient description of the victim and abduction, the child is 17 years or younger and the name is entered into the national crime information center system.

Thanks AngelWhoCares, I will say a prayer for your niece tonight. I am glad she is doing well.

While I wish it was today too, I understand while they are not starting till Friday. It takes a while to put the logistics in place for such a massive search effort. Printing up grid maps, putting team leaders in place, finding a place to for everyone to meet, laying in supplies, coordinating donations, it's a massive undertaking.

I hope such a search effort will help bring this little guy home. I will be praying for all of them. I wish I was closer to help in some way. I will pass the information along about needed searchers on facebook and twitter.

 

[Recovering-Lurker]

If anyone else has the birthdates for Robert's mom, her bf, or his father could you post them for me to add to the request in the astrology forum. Along with place of birth is needed for them to do more accurate charts too! TIA

I'm thinking Robert's birthplace might be Idaho, but not confirmed....just guessing on it right now.

I already gave them Silkie M's birthdate.

:angel:

I do know that Robert was born in Boise, Idaho. I know that Melissa's dob is 7/19/79, and I know that Daniel's dob is 11/9/72. The only thing is, I can't post a link to this info, so I'm not sure the astrologers will use it. I assure you it's correct though.
