Henry said her daughter must be lying out of fear, but she didn't know the specifics of what the lie might be.
Henry's 55-year-old boyfriend who calls Mariha his granddaughter, thinks the remains from the charred house are those of Mariha.

The results of DNA testing to determine whether the burned remains of a child are that of a missing 5-year-old Detroit girl
could be complete as soon as today, an official said.
Investigators retrieved the girl's DNA from Sinai-Grace Hospital, where she was born, and took a sample from her mother...
Meanwhile, police are still trying to determine the identity of a man who bought 41 cents in gasoline at a nearby gas station at 7:44 a.m. Sunday -- 10 minutes before the Detroit Fire Department was called to the burning home at 2918 Waverly and found the girl's body.
According to police, a man was seen running from the scene.
Police said
Smith's boyfriend, who is
a brother of the aunt's boyfriend, also was being sought for questioning.

Huh? Reporters... when you have 12 siblings... that all apparently have the last name... you cannot refer to them all as "Smith."
Saying that Smith was detained after flunking her polygraph and then Smith was released after passing hers... doesn't work.
And this statement up there?? WHICH Smith's boyfriend?
He is a brother of the Aunt's boyfriend?
WHICH Aunt?
The Aunt who is being held for questioning?
Does that mean that the Smith who this sought after boyfriend is dating is not another "Aunt Smith?"
Which would mean it would be the mother he is dating?
She doesn't know where her boyfriend is?
This is the first we've heard of this.
My head is spinning. They have got to use full names. F Smith, Q Smith, K Smith, V Smith... etc.
