Found Deceased TX - Maliyah 'Tootie' Bass, 2, Houston, 22 Aug 2020 *arrests*

[Skigh]

I'm sorry I didn't know you couldn't access! The time of the news (the 11:00 news in Houston) is a different time zone so I was almost asleep. I just put it there but didn't do more because I was so tired---oops!

Please do not apologise,I was. grateful you did post an article which showed information is being released. Quite often USA articles cannot be accessed by us in the U.K,but we are lucky that someone usually gives us the most important information.If we did not know about an article we would not be able to ask for it to be shared.

I also liked Tim Miller saying there's s surveillance camera showing how high the water level rose since recent rain.
C'mon. I don't think that's what was valuable to know and they could find that out from agencies who monitor that.
Between the lines he was saying there's s surveillance camera there did u know that?

I dont think it’s fair for mothers to be expected to isolate herself because she has a baby. The baby years are so hard and lonely even if you’re married, let alone when you’re doing it alone. You have to remember that the vast majority of relationships don’t end up being discussed on websleuths.

Thank you so much. I couldn't agree with you more.

Sadly I see this being said often when a child of a single mom is killed.

Imo, all single moms have the same capability of making poor choices or good choices just like all human beings are.

<modsnip>

We can't forget either how many cases of murdered children discussed on WS were killed solely by their own bio moms or were willing coconspirators who fully participated in the neglect, abuse, murders, and covering it up.

Imo,passing the blame as if dating men caused it.... is a grave disservice to children being subjected to these horrors. Often we see the neglect or abuse was already happening to the child during their lives often by the very ones who are supposed to always nurture, and protect them.

These kind of parents aren't remotely like any of the millions of single parents who do date very positive good women or men.

These type of parents are usually in a league of their own who knew they weren't dating a positive man or woman. Imo they just didn't care, and it shows many times their children weren't ever a top priority in the first place. Imoo.

There are millions of moms who are single (many without any positive male father figure which is as equally important to children) who do date, who are fully competent to make the right choices in who they date..just like there are countless single dads raising their children now who make the right choices.

Who will turn on the other first?

amateur opinion and speculation

I think they are gearing up for her to turn on him. I think she might have told her mother, Maliyah's grandmother, something interesting because she sort of mentioned people being careful about who they bring around their children, if I recall correctly.

 

[CharlestonGal]

From all the cases we see, am I alone in thinking that a parent of a baby probably just shouldn't date, period? Is 3 and a half years or so really that big a sacrifice to focus on taking care of a child?

I think that depends on how big a risk taker you are. After working in a sex offender treatment program for a number of years and learning first hand from them how they groomed/dated the mother in order to get access to the children, nope. I never left her with a babysitter either. She was three when I left her father and I never introduced her to a man, much less let one move in. Kids have enough to handle when their parents divorce without adding revolving boyfriends/girlfriends into the mix.

There is a lot of research on children of divorce/remarriage, most of it not good. The divorce was awful enough for her; why add more potential awful on top of that?

Maliyah paid the ultimate price of having revolving men in her environment, as have many other children on this board. Sadly, even had she lived through it, the coming years would have been more of the same. Our children deserve better than that. jmo

Surely if Tootie's mom knows her BF was to blame she would have already rushed to LE telling them who murdered her beautiful little girl.

Imo, she would have immediately done just that IF she had no involvement in what happened to MB.

After all didn't SHE say MB was outside playing when she went inside? Why would she lie to everyone if she knew it wasn't true? That's like giving someone a false alibi IF she knew it wasn't true.

Isn't she still sticking to her story that MB was abducted while she was outside alone?

Imo, the only reason anyone would cover up for someone else is if they have secrets of their own they want to keep hidden.

Fgs, MB is her own precious child, and he's a four month BF. Gah!

IF she truly loves MB she would have rushed to LE in order to get justice for her beautiful innocent murdered child if she knows he is the one.

IF her BF is the one who took MBs sunshine away from everyone who loves her ....the mom had to know it. Imo.

Wasn't she there when it happened? She says she was! Out of all the lies being told in every case like this there will be some truths mixed in.

IDK, who murdered MB or who may have participated or willfully covered it up.

BUT no matter who they are EVERYONE involved in anyway should be given the harshest punishment allowed for every criminal act they've broken.

The justice system must be the one who stands up for little MB now. I have a sinking feeling when alive no one else around her at the time when she needed it stood up for her to protect like she so deserved.

I bet you learned many (horrible) things.
Do you now believe treatment ever helps?
I saw an article today of a man who sodomized and murdered his own little daughter; the exam of her body also showed scarring of previous damage anally and vaginally. The last sight of her alive she was dancing in line at store buying a snack.
Maliyah has been described as a happy, outward child.
It's important to notice withdrawn anxious children... but Moms must remember sexual abuse doesn't always mean a terrified kid.
If a pedophile is clever a very young child may not know it's wrong.

Maliyah Bass' father wants to know how his 2-year-old daughter ended up dead in Brays Bayou
New and interesting
Oooh! Tim Miller says exciting things,!!!

Maliyah's clothes are missing, I wonder if that includes her shoes. Amateur speculation here but if a predator abducted her would he have bothered to remove her shoes? As opposed to something else happening to her? Then again shoes can fall off and we don't know if Maliyah's were runners or slip ons.

I really want to know about that area Tim Miller spoke of. I agree with @crush that it was addressed to the murderer.

“There’s an area that’s being protected right now as we speak in case we need to go to that area and look for some other evidence," he [Tim Miller] said.

"Area" could mean anything, including an apartment or a vehicle IMO.

Yes, area is a careful word, isnt it?

And "right now as we speak" is a kind of phrase used when someone feels "oh we're working on that" sounds too kindasorta we are.
Right now. As we speak.
Communicates in-progress focus work happening.
I like "in case we need to go to that area and look for some other evidence."
In case we need to. But we obviously don't feel we need to get some other evidence. Or we would just get it now.
Still, if you aren't worried about what we have, don't forget we can keep getting more and we already know where!

If a predator abducted her, there's no good prediction about what an offender like that would do with her clothes and shoes. Could have disposed of them to eliminate evidence/complicate identification or gone the other way and kept them as trophies. I don't think shoes being on or off gives much information about the predator scenario especially since, like you said, shoes can come off on their own.

I agree that "area" is a deliberately vague word. While it could mean anywhere, my interpretation was that it probably was an outdoor area as opposed to a vehicle or apartment, only because Tim Miller isn't LE and his services (implied by the "we") wouldn't be needed to search, say, an apartment.

Ita! Tim wouldn't be a part of any inside areas or privately owned buildings.

LE needs legal SWs for apartments, private buildings or even outsheds on private property, etc.

I think he feels the suspect may have left more evidence in the area MB was found. Perhaps on land close to the water location.

Or using Tim's side sonar equipment to look for evidence below the surface of the water. Etc.

Good points, thanks! I thought about the shoes because there are numerous cases of victims found nude except for footwear but they were adults. As opposed to say, a victim who drowned in a bathtub or whose murderer tried to remove evidence. IOW a little overthinking on my part.

It has bothered me greatly since first learning that tiny MB was found nude. I am sure it has profoundly affected everyone here as much as it has affected me.

I pray MB wasn't sexually defiled before she was killed by her evil murderer.

Imo, this is already a death penalty qualified case due to the very young age of MB, but if it was a sexually motivated murder it's too bad the suspect can't be executed immediately afterwards IF convicted, and IF the jury imposes a death sentence.

Imo, no defendant is worse than those who prey on defenseless children no matter the motive for killing the child, but if it also involves any type of sexual abuse it makes these kind of monsters even worse if possible. They don't deserve to breathe air, imo.

ME file remains unchanged. I want to keep an eye on it tommorow; after the burial service things could change.

If I could approve this 1000 times I would.
Sexual abuse and starvation. Only a monster could do that.

Thank you. You are right anyone who can starve a little child is also a monster no matter who they are. Also we have seen cases of starvation that included the children being put in chains, and even cages.

I continue to weep for all of tbe little children who have endured so much inhumane treatment by such evil subhumans. I refuse to call them human.

And sadly the worst enemies countless little children will ever have to face lives right inside of the home with them.

It's a neverending trail of tears for those who know all children are true blessings from God, and these children only want to be loved, and feel protected.

There's a war being fought every day, the strange thing is we all could win it. We outnumber them. But so many are distracted, or numbed, and we don't always remember strength in numbers.
Meanwhile people in child /pedophilia sites they created a dark web for, trading pictures, videos, tips for not being caught. Sometimes even trading humans.
We can't all be superheroes or detectives even.
But we can fight by rallying others, being observant and if you see something say something. Funding, volunteering, demanding staffing for children's services.
And your own beliefs are your business, but I believe in prayer for mercy, justice, and a day of reckoning.

I know. It bugs me a great deal

That and the request for 25K! What for? There are no searches needed. And I am sure the funeral could be mostly donated by local funeral home.

What is the money for?

Yes, I agree one doesn't need to isolate. But the problems are heightened when they move someone in, after only briefly knowing them. The children are so vulnerable when that happens.
