Found Deceased TX - Maleah Davis, 4, Houston, 5 May 2019

Or he sold it....

Perhaps, but surely the person he sold it to would have contacted LE now that this case is plastered all over the news?

They wouldn't want to be stopped for driving a vehicle implicated in a crime, IMO.

Does the HPD Homicide Division investigate all amber alert cases?

I think this case will be resolved soon but the outcome is going to be one we all dread.

This makes more sense now... Homicide Division

"The Homicide Squads are responsible for investigating all homicide-related offenses. These include the scene investigation of all homicides, officer-involved shootings, and questionable death incidents where foul play is suspected, in addition to the investigation of missing persons where criminal activity is suspected. These squads also respond to in-progress kidnappings."

Amber Alert Update: Texas Equusearch founder says he now thinks that 4-year-old Maleah Davis disappeared from her home in Southwest Houston. Police have directed his crews to begin searching near that home.

How I wish that Maleah could have stayed with Nana while Mom was out of town.

Posting quotes to help people keep up with the latest that’s being reported:

“The Houston Police Department told FOX26 that Darion Vence is now a "person of interest,".

Initially, ... he told detectives that he walked to the hospital after being in and out of consciousness for almost 24 hours before reporting her missing. But then officials from the Sugar Land Police Department ... told FOX26 Tuesday afternoon that Vence said he was dropped off, making his story inconsistent.”

Stepfather of missing Houston girl, 4, 'person of interest' in her disappearance, report says

Search moved. Now Texas EquuSearch will be looking in the area of Bissonnet and Kirkwood, near the stepdad's address.

Search resumes today for Maleah Davis, who was recently removed from home by CPS
JUST IN - Search crews suspend operations in NE Houston & shift their focus to the SW side of Houston.

Alright peeps, bring on the saved links and info. Looks like we're about to get somewhere. Unfortunately I don't feel like it will be good for Maleah.

No, sadly it won’t be. But we already knew that!

 

[DearPrudence]

Yes, whoever dropped him off knows something.

Don’t know what they were driving but I bet it’s anything BUT the Altima or Silverado. MOO

Did he ask for his ride to do him a solid and bang him on the forehead before dropping him off at the hospital?

 

[rsd1200]

I agree. I recently protected my 37 year old "baby"...this grandma doesn't play. Hoping something turns up soon on this.

I got the feeling that Maleah's grandma was having to withhold some feelings about DV during her interview.

For what it’s worth I have not seen any evidence of a daycare/school or any evidence that he works/where he works. Not saying those don’t exist but they have not been validated here that I’ve seen and I think were just assumptions/opinions. Links?

I saw some solid evidence that he is part of a rap duo, that did some shows at various clubs/venues. They released an album and seemed to be up and coming. Not sure if they made much money or not yet, but he was putting in a lot of effort to be playing gigs at those clubs.

Saw the posters and the album cover and the promo for it. And some youtube videos of the gigs. ALL of that has been scrubbed now. He closed it all down. Or someone did.

 

[DearPrudence]

I would say check possible aliases/spellings/etc

IMO this story has so many lies, including the name he gave to police.

Can't find anything about him or the little girl on ancestry.

 

[Stunned]

DV has a court date 5/10/19 for the traffic violation.

Hmmm...wonder if he will make it?

Is the jail close to the courthouse? If so, he’ll probably make it!

 

[MsBetsy]

Or he sold it....

Or it's underwater...
He probably abandoned the car somewhere and then asked the friend for a ride to the hospital. Do we know who gave him a ride? Jmo

Hmmm...
Someone(s) doesn't want to be associated with him ?
Or he did it himself as he knows where this is going ?
LE need to bring cadaver dogs to the apartment.

I completely forgot that it had been mentioned that he was dropped off at the hospital, only recalling when it was released that he is now POI.
I went back to the beginning of the thread.
Post #48 by @Henry2326 has an article linked, and some of the content snipped into the post.

From the original post #48 snip:
He said he flagged down a passerby, who drove him to a hospital, where he was treated for minor injuries, police said. His toddler was not harmed.

While at the hospital, the stepfather called a relative and asked them contact the police, authorities said.

But the article linked was changed, and now reads:

"He wakes up. He has his son ... with him. He begins walking around. He tries to summon help. Nobody's really helping him," Holbrook said, recounting Vence's account.

He said Vence told police that he walked with his son to Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital, arriving about 10 or 11 p.m. He was treated for a head injury and police were called.

Amber Alert issued after 4-year-old girl allegedly abducted by 3 carjackers: Police

So the FIRST story was that he was dropped off, later changed to no one would help him.

I saw upthread that BB was called in to view some video footage, and I assumed that it was him being dropped off - but now I wonder.

IMO, he’s gonna have a lot of time to write rap in his future.

Amber Alert Update: Texas Equusearch volunteers now searching through grass next to apartment complex where Maleah Davis, 4, lives with her mom and stepfather S Kirkwood Rd in Southwest Houston. Police say she’s been missing since Friday. Her stepdad told them she was abducted.

Three questions:
1. Where was Maleah's mother, Brittany Bowens, flying in from?
2. How long had Ms. Bowens been away from home?
3. When was Maleah last seen by someone other than stepfather Darion Vence or her mother?

My apologies if these questions have already been asked and answered.

Another update I am not sure if I can post this here, I am new but just thought I would share

I still believe if they find the car they will find Maleah.

Good catch....there are a lot of details that kept changing.
