As a Brit I'm not quite understanding how she qualifies for an Amber Alert when there is no known vehicle or abductor? Are there different Amber Alert rules for different states in the US? Or is it because they have information that they can't share? If someone could educate me I'd be very grateful

Different states have different rules and practically speaking, there’s a lot of discretion involved for law enforcement. No one is going to fire a cop or make a huge fuss because they went too aggressive with an Amber Alert generally - the publicity would be terrible.

Mitchell County Lt. Detective Ashley Beam secured a felony warrant for Christopher Eugene Biederman, age 32, for Abduction of a Child. This is in regard to our missing child in the Amber Alert on Sunday, November 2. He is being held at this time in the Allen County Detention Center at the Allen County Sheriff's Office in Ohio. They are holding him on our fugitive warrant and a felony warrant from the same matter from the Lima Police Department. This is still a very active ongoing investigation, no doubt by the city and county in Ohio, but also by the FBI.

Several different local departments came together for this investigation on Sunday. After two different dog tracks, we determined that she must have been picked up. The SBI office was at our office already assisting in the investigation, probably within 30 minutes of issuing the Amber Alert. I got a call on my cell phone from the FBI. They were at our office within an hour and a half. Intelligence from both agencies was able to track down the location of the individual we believed to have picked up the child. It is my belief that this case will ultimately be picked up by federal authorities. This person is innocent until proven guilty. This is the booking picture of Biederman in the jail.

The child has been returned safe.

I'm really impressed with the Mitchell County Sheriff and with the way this case has been handled by all concerned. They were on top of it from the first moment that they responded to the missing report. They didn't waste time by first publicly declaring her a runaway. They got down to business. I also commend the sheriff for keeping the public informed to the extent possible, without damaging the case.

Thank you for the explanation, I had presumed each state had a strict set of rules, I didn't realise it was also down to law enforcements discretion, this explains why I'm often confused by changing criteria. Very kind of you to explain.

This appears to be him Christopher Biederman

Oh boy…he’s exhausting.

Well his life did just change but certainly not for the better.

He’s anything but stable.

Well... that is one depressing soul. So painful reading about him.

sometimes.... I wish there was a way to just DO something when witnessing "red flags" over and over.
This guy has been unstable for a long time.......
