Found Alive NM - Elijah Covington, 3, & Javon Rosales, 6, Albuquerque, 9 Feb 2021

[Mistree]

I was hoping these babies would have been found by now.
Even IF “He” isn’t involved with the physical abduction. I can’t help but wonder if he, they, have associates who are helping? JMO

Covington was last seen driving a small gray SUV style vehicle with a temporary tag. That vehicle was later found empty at the InTown Suites, which is where Covington's mother lives.​

—KOB

Covington was arrested at the Suburban Extended Stay hotel on Carlisle Blvd near Menaul Blvd​

—KRQE

To provide some context, she kidnapped the kids, ditched the SUV 3.5 miles away (9 minute drive) at the hotel her mom lives at, then went 2.6 miles (8 minute drive) BACK towards the place she kidnapped them from to another hotel. They were found 1.3 miles away from the dentists office they were kidnapped from.

Thank God she didn’t go farther, but I have to wonder what she was thinking. She apparently knew they would be at that dentist appointment, so she had time to plan. Unless this was a spontaneous visit-turned-kidnapping, her plan seems...not brilliant, IMHO. Did she not count on LE to be searching the area?

Here’s a visual (dentist in the lower right, InTown at the top, Suburban on the lower left):

Great news!

 

[Niner]

Do you all want me to "follow" the mother thru her hearings, etc.?

TIA!

I would really appreciate that! I’ll try to update, too, when I see articles on the case in the local news, but I know I’ll miss a lot, since I don’t read it consistently (the news burn-out ebbs and flows).

Okay - I will keep up my notes than! I looked her up earlier in the New Mexico court site, but nothing there yet for her.

 

[TTF14]

Thank God these boys were found safe.

 

[Niner]

Still nothing on the court site - I must have missed it - but does anyone know "how old" Clorisa is?

TIA!

Looks like she faced the Judge yesterday....

Woman at center of Amber Alert for missing boys faces judge

Feb. 12, 2021
Clorisa Covington didn't have much to say in court Thursday, but the judge did.

Covington is charged with taking her children, child abuse and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
[.....]
Thursday the district attorney asked that Covington be kept behind bars until trial.

A judge said she'll stay locked up for at least a week.

"You will have a hearing within the next week for that pretrial detention to determine if you should be held until your trial setting you have until you have until Feb. 25 of 2021 to either take her to grand jury or have a preliminary hearing on her case so you're not going anywhere at this point Miss Covington your next hearing will be in front of a district court judge OK," said Metro Court Judge Yvette Gonzales.

Covington will be back in court next week for another hearing.

Finally found her in the court site, but no next hearing date on there yet. I'll keep checking.

you know, one thing. when i was a CO, if you got arrested, you were not allowed to visit inmates at the jail for 6 months (also can not be on probation or parole) idk if that is in effect there though.
