TN TN - Analyce Guerra, 18 mos, Smyrna, 23 April 2006

[dulcinea]

This case is very confusing, but one thing I keep coming back to is the door. Mom says the door was locked. I believe the little girl could have unlocked it. I'm just not 100% convinced she did. It leaves me to wonder who else had a key to the apartment. I don't necessarily think someone else came in and grabbed her. I'm just trying to reason through it all. I do feel the mom knows more than she's telling.

Even though Mom says the door was locked, I'm not so certain it was. I too feel the mom knows more than she's saying. Do you remember the Van Dammes and poor little Danielle. They had a lot to hide in light of their family's alternative lifestyle, yet they came out and cooperated with police fully because their priority was finding Danielle. It doesn't appear as if this is the case with Analyce, someone isn't telling the whole story.

Does anyone know how much the other children have been talked to by police? I know they said Santa has their sister, but I think they said that to their mom. How old are these five other children? Surely some of them must be old enough to coroborate the mother's story or give a different version of events. I find it difficult to believe it happend the way she claims it did, but so far no one involved can offer us another scenario. Based on that, I thought she would have been found by now.

Someone said something about the door and how it closes itself, thus answering the quesion of whether or not she could close the door on her own. But that just makes me think that if the door can close itself, wouldn't it be rather loud in closing? Typically, if a door can swing itself shut it will slam closed, not quietly lock into place.

Also, I think they need to look more into "Santa Claus took her." Do they have someone who plays Santa every Christmas and one of the kids is old enough to recognize that man as Santa but not quite differentiate between Santa and the man (ie, he thinks of this man as Santa year round)?

Maybe "Santa" came in and told Analyce he was taking her to the park and she told her brother she was going to the park? I think these kids need to be questioned a little more.

Welcome to WEBSLEUTHS!!!!!!!!you bring up some very good points.the kids do need to be questioned more and I would think a door that closes on its own would be kinda loud....the mother just when I saw her on nancy grace acts like she may know more than shes saying...she reminds me personally of susan smith I may be wrong but this is my opinion...

Police won't confirm abduction report. They're not confirming nor denying the report that Analyce may be on her way to Guatamala. The Amber Alert also has not been extended beyond Middle Tennessee.

Could this very well be what has happened to Analyce? Would the father have had a key to the apartment? Perhaps he unlocked and opened the door and she woke up so he took her? I haven't read all the articles and posts, but do we know his location?

So many questions around this pretty little girl.

Tip suggests Analyce may have been taken to Guatamala. Analyce's mom has also consulted a psychic. I'm not sure the dad had anything to do with taking Analyce, but it's entirely possible. According to the latest report, gang involvement may be suspected. What's going on with the idea of gang involvement? We know that the Guerra's former home was burned and there is an ongoing arson investigation, I've heard of gangs burning people out, but kidnapping children? Is this in retaliation for something Analyce's parents did? So many questions, and not enough answers. Continue to keep this precious child in your thoughts and prayers.

~snip~
Police and family continue to search daily, trying to figure out what happened to Analyce Guerra, who was last seen late at night on April 23 in her Smyrna apartment.

“I sometimes wonder how I'm still here,” mother Eva Guerra said.

As time goes by, there's more desperation.

“I'm open to anything now, all I want to find is my little girl,” Guerra said.

Anything has now come in the form of an Indianapolis antiques dealer.

“I've never went looking for anyone I didn't find,” mind reader Charles Wheatley said.

Wheatley showed up at the Guerra's door Wednesday morning asking for no payment, saying he felt compelled to help.

This is one confusing mess -- we have one law enforcement agency reporting that it may be a kidnapping by a gang and the child is on her way to Guatamala. Another law enforcement agency says they have no clue where that story came from and wants the focus to remain on finding the girl in Tennessee. We have discrepancies in the stories of family members which is taking up investigator's time to re interview and administer lie detector tests. We have the mom seeking the help of a psychic or something pretty similar. Where is baby Analyce?

I'm going way way out on a limb here because there is absolutely no evidence to support this theory -- but I think Anaylce's mom is hiding something, she's not being totally honest. I do not think she harmed the baby, I do think she may have an idea of who took Analyce and why. The parents of Analyce have been separated for a while. it has been reported that Eva Guerra, Analyce's mom, had a boyfriend or two since the time of the separation. Is it possible that one of these boyfriends knew enough about Eva's habits and came by and took Analyce? I do hope the police are questioning the boyfriends. All bases need to be covered in an effort to find this little girl.

I was just reading up on the search for Analyce and when I got to my first post on this thread, I thought of something. In the dugout hole that a couple of searchers confirmed that they saw and searched, did anyone collect the zip lock baggies for evidence and print them?

Perhaps Analyce's prints are on them and anyone else's prints as well. What if someone gave her that snack and their prints are on the baggies? There could be other dna evidence in the hole as well.

Just thinking and hoping!

Good sleuthing Doodlesmom, good point about who santa might be.

the location of the dug out hole near the construction site was looked into by the police since the search teams thought it looked to be a good point to point out to them. they did collect the small zip lock baggie but I don't know if it was collected as evidence or such. the hole was there to make a utility connection for the project site it was temporarly covered with ply wood to keep someone from falling into it. the hole was about 2 ft across and approx 3ft deep, there was mud in the base of it from recent rainfall. it didn't appear someone had been in it recently, but your point of collecting the baggie is a very good point for possible fingerprints and possible dna material. good sleuthing!

Does anyone have any new news on Analyce?

Nothing new in the news about Analyce. The media seems to have lost interest in this child.

 

[tennessee]

I am not surprised. I remember Franny Graham. She was considered to be one of two bodies found months ago and yet there is still no news updates on her either. I really wish our news stations would follow up on these stories. Even if it is just that there are no new leads, so that people at least remember these missing people.

I feel like Analyce is alive out there somewhere. I hope that they can find her.

This is not good. This little girl has been missing way to long. I wonder if any of the mother's boyfriends looked like Santa with the beard? That was a strange remark for a child to make...Santa look the little girl?? I would imagine LE has asked the children every question possible.

I have a hard time believing that this little girl just wandered away never to be seen again. Someone either came in and took her or she did wander outside and some creep was hanging around outside and grabbed her. If she had just wandered around down the street someone would have eventially seen her or heard her crying. Like so many other missing people this little girl has vanished into thin air without a trace. If her mother knew anything I think she would have told LE. She has to be living in hell not knowing what has happened to her baby.

 

[dannyodie]

your right the little girl didn't just walk out and vanish, I think that it is possible that she is back in mexico with her dads mom and dad. the father had an alibi as to his whereabouts the night before, but I wonder if those that vouched for him all had the same or similar story to tell as to where he was and so on.

As far as that goes the dad could have had someone go into the house and pickup the little girl. It could have been one of his friends who picked her up. I wonder if the dad has a key to the house. The dad would know the mother's habit of her and the kids falling asleep in front of the TV. If the dad had a friend go get the little girl then that person or someone else could have taken her to Mexico to the grandparents. I wonder if all of the kids belong to this dad or just the baby? There may have been a reason why the dad wanted the baby with his parents. If the grandparents are good people I hope they have the little girl. I would rather that then the things my mind has imagined.

Wonder if the dad has taken a lie detector test? Maybe they should ask him if he knows who went into the house and took the baby. Also wonder if the person had a beard like Santa if that is what happened. If the dad said he was with family I'm sure they alibied for him.

 

[CordovaMom]

Eva Guerra says she feels someone that knows the family may have taken Analyce. That's my feeling as well. Hope the police are doing a throurough job of investigating family friends and relatives.

I really don't know what in the world is going on with this story.
Either the LE doesn't know what they are doing or there is not one clue to be found.
This has been to long.
