Noting, from the article:

Darion Vence, the man who authorities say was the last person to see missing 4-year-old Maleah Davis, has been charged with tampering with evidence in the disappearance, a law enforcement source tells ABC13.

The Gulf Coast Violent Offenders and Fugitives Task Force confirmed Vence was taken into custody Saturday.

Texas EquuSearch volunteers have been looking for Maleah since the story of her abduction as told to police by Vence.

The important thing is they found DV and have him in custody.

Its one step closer to finding out what happened to Maleah and if she is no longer alive, where her remains are.

This innocent little girl deserves to be laid to rest with the love and dignity she was denied in life -- if she is indeed deceased, which all evidence points to.

Just evidence tampering huh? Sounds like they think he might have been just cleaning up for someone else.

Or perhaps this is the only charge they have sufficient evidence on so far in order to bring him in.

If he never filed a complaint regarding the alleged kidnapping, they can't charge him with filing a false police report. Or maybe he's sufficiently recovered his memory and can sit with a sketch artist for sketches of his "abductors".

Yes, indeed. Tell us where she is, DV. :mad:
 
Per QX:

"It was out of fear and out of being threatened by Mr. Darion that she covered up physical abuse of Maleah that the stepfather was doing,” the activist said.

“For some reason, she was unwilling to tell everything she knew about him.

And I think the mother has a twisted love for the man.”

Mother of Maleah Davis blames girl’s stepfather for disappearance

So was the reason that she was threatened by him, an unknown reason, or a twisted love for him?

I've never seen any reports, unless I've missed it somewhere, that DV has abused BB. In the beginning, it was, like that old country song, by Tammy Wynette; Stand By Your Man.
 
Hi! First post but I've been following since the beginning. Maybe they've confirmed that he moved the car?! That would be evidence tampering, wouldn't it?
Also, I believe the pants he is wearing in the laundry basket pic may be red (to me, they had a red tint in one pic I saw), and that is why the white stripe has tint to it.

Is evidence tampering enough to hold him for a while?

Tampering with Evidence Charges in Texas

Making A Bad Situation Worse
Tampering with evidence can convert a simple misdemeanor into a major felony, turning a small fine case into serious prison time. Oftentimes people don't even know that their actions can bring about this charge, and in many cases even seemingly innocent actions can bring about tampering with evidence charges. Just some of the situations that can result in tampering with evidence charges are:

  • Swallowing illegal substances (a little bit of marijuana) to avoid arrest
  • Hiding a weapon used in the commission of a crime
  • Shredding a subpoena
  • Erasing computer files or discarding a device (cell phone) being sought as evidence
In order to keep a misdemeanor from turning into a felony and to protect yourself if your actions may result in tampering with evidence charges, it is incredibly important to have a seasoned criminal defense attorney on your side.

Article has been updated to include:

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Darion Vence, the man who authorities say was the last person to see missing 4-year-old Maleah Davis, has been charged with tampering with evidence, namely a corpse, in the disappearance, a law enforcement source tells ABC13.

The Gulf Coast Violent Offenders and Fugitives Task Force confirmed Vence was taken into custody Saturday.

While the charge states "tampering with evidence, namely a corpse," law enforcement officials have not yet confirmed whether the girl died.

IMO, police knew exactly where he was the entire time, just didn’t think he needed to know they knew.
 
I suspect we will see LE locate Maleah's remains this evening. DV doesn't strike me as a tough guy or a G so my bet is, he is singing like a canary. I am also betting there will be a self serving story about how she just died, for no known reason and in light of previous abuse allegations and CPS involvement he "panicked" and dumped her body knowing his poor innocent misunderstood behind would get blamed. Curious tho how he will work all that clorox cleanup into that narrative . . .

Thank You. She just got elected to the bench,her term last till 2022.
OPINION For the 308th Family District Court: Gloria Lopez
Wow. She's Hell-bent on keeping children with abusive family. Reunification is main goal. Not the safety,and best interest of the child.
God Help any children she presides over.
MOO
