Found Deceased TX - Maleah Davis, 4, Houston, 5 May 2019 #5 *STEPDAD ARRESTED*

Bad attention is better than no attention at all?

There are plenty of crazy people in Houston that would take matters into their own hands to bring justice for this little girl. If I were QX and BB, I'd be afraid that I'd get attacked in public instead of worrying about attention. But then again, ya never know what they are thinking.

I've been mulling this part over too.

I found it ridiculous she didn't start calling police and hospitals THAT night. But to go home and have their be visible blood....I mean, maybe she didn't see it? But, really, I *truly* do not understand not being up all night looking for my kids.

Earlier in the week I thought she might not be looking for the kids because they weren't currently living with them, and so all she knew was that DV might be missing.
But now I don't think that's the case. I have wondered if perhaps they were not living there, but that was because of the DCS case that DV was NOT named in. So when BB went out of town, it was ok for the kids to be there with him. Either way, I do think she did know they were there. And we now know that she had 'concerns' of abuse by DV ( re: she KNEW Maleah was being abused by DV).

I have put myself in this situation in my head. Give it a whirl and tell me - with all of those things, him not picking her up from her flight, not answering calls, the house smelling of bleach, what would you do? I know this is totally subjective (and rhetorical). I would go OVER THAT HOUSE WITH A FINE TOOTH COMB. I would have found that blood. The only other option I can come up with is that, rather than scouring the house, I would have called 911 and said 'I just got home from a trip, there have been some hinky events, my house reeks of bleach and I fear a crime has been committed please send someone here right now.'

Could someone check on his bond? Rumors are starting that it is lowered and I don't know how to research this.

just got back from lunch, probably already posted by someone but was checking out DV's defense attorney (he filed an appearance this morning)

General counsel, Justice For Children, Houston, Texas — 2004 – 2011. Responsible for all aspects of litigation and legal representation for a national non-profit organization providing advocacy in cases of child abuse. Recruited, trained and assisted pro bono lawyers to represent children

Attorney Profile

curious how a guy with his background ends up defending DV?

Yeah I mentioned that earlier. And the founder of Justice for Children is Randy Burton. According to his law firm link he's an internationally recognized expert on child abuse/neglect. I wondered if Tom and Randy Burton are of relation...and if so, will Randy show up somewhere in this case...

Just catching up and reading backwards.

and a LOL to Texas has a few mesquite trees. Texas is covered in them. They're everywhere, even in kids parks. When you grow up around them you know that there can be thorns ( up to six inches at time) on the ground and everywhere else around the trees.

Wouldn't the hospital or LE taken photos of DV as evidence when they treated him for an attack by three men? So who took those photos someone posting online?

Our baby needs to come home. It's a shame no one can "help" DV give them a answer to where he dumped her at. He might be hoping she will be so badly decomposed that no one can see what he did to her.

Maybe this attorney representing him will get down to everything and everyone who may be involved. He might be working with him for in return, answers that nobody is getting.

Wait have I missed something? The mom is accusing the stepdad of being an abusive gay child molester?

Here is the trainwreck for you to watch.

It now says $45,000

 

[mrsmmm]

Deleted, incorrect info.

 

[mrsmmm]

It now says $45,000

What? I just looked?

 

[castilloisno1]

What? I just looked?

this is why I am so confused.

 

[Victoria17]

What a drop. Worrisome.

 

[mrsmmm]

It now says $45,000

Oh. I guess mine was stuck. Didn't show the new activity either....no doc loaded yet tho?

That would require a hearing.

I seriously think this information is incorrect given that the judge raised the bond and additional half million more than the $500,000 state requested.

Bond was set at $1 mil

'Justice for Maleah!' Protesters accuse missing girl's mom of not doing enough to protect her
[...]

Bowens' family and relatives of Maleah's biological dad, Craig Davis, were also in the courtroom.

But it appeared that all eyes were on Bowens. Protesters shouted accusations at her in what they say was a failure to protect Maleah.

"Justice for Maleah! Justice for Maleah!" the group chanted. People also held signs with the same message.

Yes IIRC BB was in MA when her father was dying (and claims he died in her arms).

It's hard to give a flip about this image she wants to portray as being such a loving daughter that her father died in her arms when you know she left her daughter in a lion's den.

It definitely shows a reduction and Activity today "Bond Low Status J CFI 180"

 

[Victoria17]

Do they do this once someone starts cooperating with an investigation?

I have no idea. I thought they said they were going to try to give murder charges, but they might’ve backed off from that for now depending on what evidence they’re lacking or even gaining for better proof. I was iffy on the murder charges because while you can convict without a body, it’s full of legal maneuvers if something doesn’t exactly fit.

That, if true would be very unusual.
IMO he would be one or the other, not both.
I find this accusation disturbing and leaning toward be untrue.
In my experience anyway.
Moo

At the 7:00 mark BB's mother says she last saw Maleah on Monday "because
Brittany was flying out Tuesday and she was at my house washing clothes."
