Are they sisters? A bit odd that a 7 year old would want to leave home.

I wish there was more information to go on. Like were they outside riding bikes or talking a walk to the store? Anything would be helpful imo

 

[GuyfromCanada]

Still missing.

 

[GuyfromCanada]

No news, missing for over 48 hours already. Where are they?

It seems strange that the police have been so silent about these two little girls. The only reason I can think of is that they might have information that they are with a family member, or with someone who won't harm them. Otherwise, surely they would have issued an endangered child alert at the very least.

On the police FB, there are recent comments and replies by MC that give some insight into their family background.

Legal guardian of 2 missing girls speaks out, asking the community for help (13abc.com)
JC is the legal guardian ... “They went out of the backdoor because my backdoor camera was broken at the time. They scaled the fence. And I believe someone was waiting outside to pick them up because they did not walk away,” said Campbell.

JC is Samari’s biological grandmother. She says she believes Ceszera may have felt left out, not being biologically related, and was in contact with some from her mother’s family who picked the girls up. TPD has not confirmed that. Being a child care specialist, she believes the girls are better off with her. “There is a reason why they were removed from the home in the first place. There is a history of drug abuse, there is a history of human trafficking,” said Campbell. “This is what I get for trying to be the good guy.”

... The plan was for me to take custody of the children and give them back, and since I didn’t go with the program, I am being punished,” says Campbell.

Oh my geez! What in the world is going on with this case? How'd they go missing again so quickly? I hope LE have gotten CPS involved for the sake of the girls. Something doesn't sit right with me. MOO
