Did the parents search themselves?

 

[ArianeEmory]

Early reports had the father going door to door because he thought she was watching cartoons at a neighbor home? I think? Will skim back, maybe someone else can confirm my memory in the meantime.

I don't know about that part of Texas, but here in New England, lawn care people often use that kind of tarp to cover loads of branches/lawn clippings/etc.

Yep. And to cover lawn tractors. I think I mentioned lawncare/landscaping workers in the basement thread or maybe it was in this one. And they have flatbed trailers...

Anyone who might have been doing work at a home, particularly one where the tenant was not home, ought to be checked out. And people moving in or out of a home ought to be checked out, too. One RSO in the area worked for an HVAC company and could have been at a home in that neighborhood.

For what it's worth, I think they'll have a suspect within 24 hours.

I went door to door on Google Maps' streetview and looked for anything suspicious. I didn't see anything. I went up and down both sides of Babbling Brook, up and down side streets, etc.

here's a detailed article:

Why is the FBI involved so quickly?

Also, there is an FBI office right there in Dallas, so it was probably a quick and easy way to get help with this. Ft Worth had a sad shooting yesterday ended with a pregnant lady, her 10 yr old brother and their mom all dead

Just seeing some of the above posts and not wanting to get into any turbulence I will say Saginaw is a fairly small town near a pretty big town, Ft Worth. Saginaw is a pretty nice town and while I'm sure it's got rougher parts than others, overall the town is nowhere near ghetto or a bad town. fwiw

 

[ArianeEmory]

Following up to my earlier post: early in the thread there are reports from neighbors that dad was knocking on doors around 8pm looking for her.

do NOT personalize your posts. This is part of our terms of service. Discuss the case and carry on.

Are you saying that if parents reported their 6-year-old child missing, LE would tell them to wait X amount of time to see if she shows up before they do anything?

Never. Ever. Where I am from (Canada). That goes for missing persons in general. There is no 24 hour waiting period or anything like that.

That's a weirdly worded caption. From earlier I guess.

Schmae, they have a fair amount of RSO's there. I just quickly went through them.

O/T I didn't realize RSO's were permitted social media in Texas.

This silence from LE is deafening............

This was probably the FBI's CARD Team- Child Abduction Rapid Deployment Team.

Hoping they catch this person soon.

2011 RSO list, 3 at same address, 1 located very close to recovery location on Cindy Lane.

Thanks, Wondergirl. I looked at a more updated one. I didn't notice three at one addy.

What's up with that?

Dang and it's a house. I thought maybe apartments. So close to a park too.

 

[ArianeEmory]

I wondered if maybe it was a multi-family dwelling, but no, doesn't look like it.

 

[alwaysonmymind]

I thought it might be a grandparent, father, son at the RSO address you're discussing but none of the names match up.

The oldest one had MULTIPLE charges. Yuck.

My town is VERY SMALL and has like 15 rso's. Rso's does not make it the ghetto. But my point was more that Saginaw has plenty of police to answer missing children 911 calls IMMEDIATELY and not in hours like some earlier posts were speculating. It's just not a big crime filled town where cops are so busy they would not come out for a missing child call. Imho of course.

It doesnt say what homicide on Monday ?

Quite a few schools located nearby, also.
