Missing baby in KC
Has everyone see the story about the missing 10 month old that was taken from her crib?
What a sad story....
My thoughts:
1. How did the person know the baby was in that room?
2. How did the person know they had a baby?
3. How did they know to come when dad wasn't home and at work?
Re: Missing baby in KC
This is what I dont understand... you've got to assume there was a baby monitor. How in the heck did the mom not wake up and hear something? The breaking in, getting the baby up (you'd assume she'd cry?)... it's so strange. But by all accounts, it seems the parents are completely innocent.
So sad. I cant stop thinking about it.
I'm confused. Are they considering the mom at all? The story sounds like the parents aren't ruled out but aren't suspicious... The whole thing is so sad.
I'm a total paranoid mom. I don't leave the girls' windows open at night simply because I am fearful of someone coming in--ridiculous, I am sure, considering they are on the second floor of our house.
No, I can see that too. The whole situation is creepy and gets more sad as time goes on. I know the time period for finding abducted kids successfully isn't very long.
That was my thought too. And that dad went into check on her when he got home from his shift. Shiitty parents don't do that.
The whole thing makes my stomach churn.
love is for every her, love is for every him, love is for everyone
Well someone in their neighborhood is coming forward sayign they saw someone walking down the street with a baby in a diaper.
I'm going to go ahead and assume that it's been cold at night in KC, like it has here. Would you not call the police if you saw some random person walking down the street WITH A BABY IN ONLY A DIAPER in the middle of the night!?! Am I the only one who would???
I thought that too.
However, the mom gave a description of the clothing she was wearing. (purple pants?) So if this man walking with a baby in a diaper, where is the outfit the baby was sleeping in? Also, why would you leave your window open in a house where you can easily climb in?
I would call the police but I am hyper like that... 441-6000 is the non emergency line. I have it memorized.
I thought they said she was wearing clothes, but maybe I misread.
Regardless, most people choose not to get involved. Many are quick to say what they (think they) would do, but most do nothing when faced with a certain scenario. (The show "What Would You Do?" is based upon this psych phenomenon, the "bystander effect.") Note: This is not directed at you, or anyone in this post saying they would call, I'm just sayin' many do not and it's not uncommon.
Finally, I also wonder if dude who said he saw the man really did see the man or if he/his wife is/are being tragedy whores. Hate to think that, of course, but it's also something that happens often.
Keep me updated, peeps!
This is seriously my worst nightmare. I have some major paranoia issues since becoming a mom...check my alarm, check my doors, etc over & over. I was in NY for business this week and when I heard the national news story I figured it was in NY. I couldn't believe it was in KC. I'm sick over this.
On another note - interesting that the baby's name is Lisa....that hasn't been a popular baby name since the late 70s
Did you guys see the parents on the Today Show this morning? The mom revealed she took a lie detector test and failed. Ugggh, they did it. This was the first time I had seen them on TV, they looked sketchy as hell. Makes me sick.
Agreed. I didn't hear what they were saying though because I was trying to get my kid ready for school pictures. I did hear later that they are no longer cooperating with officials. Nice.
Just the fact that the dad looked completely emotionless stuck out to me.
And how would an intruder know there was 3 cell phones? Why didn't the dad take his cell phone to work with him that night?
