Deceased/Not Found MI - Bianca Jones, 2, Detroit, 2 Dec 2011 - #1 - *D. Lane guilty*

[Cubby]

I'm leaning towards the idea that someone might have taken Bianca, but Dad knows exactly who that person was and has his own selfish reasons for staying silent about that little detail.

Or Dad killed her. But the other option at least gives me hope that she may be alive, I don't want to contemplate in what condition, but alive.

What reason would dad have to keep secret about who that person was? Unless he is protecting his other childs mother?

Jones said she had not been in contact with Lane. Instead she learned her baby was missing from a relative who told her that Lane came to their home on the 250 block of Custer Friday morning, breathless and in tears to say that his car was stolen and Bianca was gone.

This article directly contradicts the father's statement

And the mom was allowing the dad to keep her for a few more weeks, which is why he was getting the clothes. Yesterday all of the articles said the mom and dad were talking to the police but that couldn't be true if the mom never saw the dad. I'm really confused about that part. I wonder if there was another person (the woman named in an earlier version of one of the articles) that went with Deondre and was assumed to be the mother. I'm ready to stop listening to the statements from the parents and just wait for LE to make another statement.

I think it's pretty clear both the mom and dad talked to police yesterday - the mom (can't remember how to spell her name) was released before evening, but the dad was still there as of 11 p.m.

They may not have talked to each other, but I think both spent a great deal of time yesterday speaking to police separately.

There is the thought that, in the commission of a crime, somehow his child vanished and he doesn't know what happened to her.

Like, he left her in the parked car while he was in buying drugs and when he returned she was gone.

The mother of a 2-year-old girl, missing since Friday morning when carjackers allegedly forced her father at gunpoint out of the vehicle, will hold a press conference at 3 p.m.
Banika Jones, the mother of Bianca Jones, is expected to ask the public to help in the search for her daughter. She will be joined by family members and Detroit Police Chief Ralph L. Godbee Jr., at the department's Central District building in Midtown.

I did not get the impression that Bianca's mother 'shoved her off'. It was reported that the father had been in jail/prison on a cocaine charge and the mother wanted the two of them to get aquainted. The uncle said they had known the father since junior high. Maybe they never thought of him as dangerous.

Bianca is said to be tall and large for her age, is very intelligent and speaks well. Perhaps her half-sister seemed small and fragile by comparison and got the father mad at her for some reason - maybe he thought she wasn't playing properly with his 'little girl'.

It was also reported that the other mother was cooperating but would not speak to reporters. If she is not involved, directly, i wonder if she could get the reward for telling what she knows.

I also wonder if Bianca was alive when her father left the house with her. He left the house around 7:30 and had until nearly 10:00 to do something to Bianca and hide her body, before returning to the area. It was also reported that he went straight to the mother's/parents house and told them first, and that they called LE. moo

We can't be sure about the last part of that, because it's also been reported that the mother had to find out from other family, and that she has not spoken directly to him since Bianca disappeared.

I would think Mom would know if she was talking to another child.

I am not sure about that with a 2 yr old. They don't tend to say much on the telephone. And don't they pretty much just answer our questions: Are you Ok? Are you having a good time there? Did you go to the park? I think I could be fooled by another 2 yr old if they were just on the phone.

Illegal activity on his part. Protecting himself. Protecting his other child. Making sure that he doesn't go hack to prison for being around other felons, using drugs or possessing a firearm. Any or all of the above.

I am also leaning to option one at this point (hoping). I don't think the woman from the home where Dad was staying was involved though. Something happened after 7:30. imo

I respectfully disagree. The uncle, Bianca's moms brother OJ was quoted in MSM yesterday as saying something along the lines of (from memory) we were just talking to her last night because we hadn't talked to her. That led me to believe Dad and his other childs mother were NOT cooperating with letting Bianca's mom speak to her daughter during the previous week she was staying with them.

This was new for Bianca. She should have been allowed to talk to her mommy everyday while getting to know her dad, her half sister and dads 'girl friend'. Thus far, based on what we have seen in MSM, that did not happen this past week.

When my son went on his first 9 day vacation with his dad this past summer, I spoke with him everyday and he was almost 9. So something is up here why dad and his girlfriend appear to have not let mom speak for Bianca for the better part of the last week.

I find it odd that he supposedly left the home with her at 7:30 am. Imo, that seems pretty early unless you are catching a flight or something.

Go check the go bags? I'm not following you. :waitasec:

I can't make sense of that time frame either.

I wonder what time he told LE he left - this time frame was offered by his other baby's mother.

Whatever reason he left at 7:30, it doesn't sound innocent to me.

I'd sure like to know if they have cell phone pings.

Once the search is open to the public, I'm only an hour away. I'm just waiting on the announcement that they will be allowing the public to participate.

Timeline:

•7:30 a.m. Bianca leaves a home on Mitchell Street with her father

•9:55: a.m.: Lane reports he was carjacked on Beaubien, between Euclid and Philadelphia

•10:15 a.m.: Police find Lane’s vehicle just blocks away in an alley off Brush between Philadelphia and Euclid


According to the father, the car was hijacked and he ran to Bianca's mother's house and they called LE.

Do we know where that house is on the map? Remember, it took him nearly two and a half hours to get from his house to the place where he was carjacked.

He was carjacked at 9:55, then ran to Bianca's mother's house and they called LE at 10:15.

It took him 2.5 hours to drive a mile, or so and 20 minutes to run from the car to the mother's house.

Yes, thank you, the mom left before 11 pm while the father stayed much later according to the same video. I'm talking about the very first reports early yesterday. They said the mom and dad were talking to police leading some of us to wonder if they were in the car together. I was just surprised to read in the other article that the mom said she hadn't talked to the dad. I think it was reporting errors.

But you'd be able to tell them apart, wouldn't you, if the child laughed, or if she did something unusual (like not talking when you know she's verbal and likes to talk on the phone), no?

Ohh, hahaha. I thought you were saying "to go bags" as in food to go, because you intend to be parked right here on this forum for days. ;D

Bless you for being willing to go help out if needed.

 

[ingra1327]

Working on the map - this doesn't make much sense (not your post, but the timeline and places).

If he was coming from Mitchell, he would have passed Custer to get to Beaubien? :waitasec:

This map shows the location of the other baby's mother's house (Mitchell) where Dad originally left from at 7:30

Thanks. I thought so but wasn't sure. Hopefully it won't come to that, but I do appreciate very much your willingness to help search. :blowkiss:

I guess I'm just to jaded to believe he was actually carjacked. I'm 99.9% confident in my own mind that he killed her that morning, or previously, and used the carjacking scenario as a cover-up. I also wouldn't be at all suprised if the girlfriend knows what happened as well. I wonder if LE has her at the station, or if she's still at home.

But, no, I don't believe this was an abduction by any means. I just pray her little body is found soon.

MOO

I can't imagine another 2 year old posing as someone else.

"Hey Bianca, how are you baby"
"I not Bianca"
