Exactly what I was about to post, fran....BL seems too lazy & self-centered to take too much time out of his day to drive around trying to find a 'suitable' spot -- not to mention that it's risky & he's been pulled over before....I think he just tossed little Aveion in the dumpster & he's already in the landfill....any other info he might have given to LE would be to get them to waste their time so there's less chance of them finding him at the landfill.

Seems like the most 'werk' he's done is come up w/ the abduction story & ransack the house -- which he probably didn't even do by himself as I wouldn't doubt that the "mother" had a hand in that *and* the ransom note.

I hate to have to type all this but that's where my mind is going.

Remember that little girl who was found in the landfill not long ago? The police said over and over again if they hadn't gotten to her when they did (almost immediately after the trucks had dumped), they'd have never found her. Wonder if he heard and remembered that...

Bouncing off your post, Cubby --

Michelle Sigona reported that CHIPs was involved with Aveion from an early age, and they are mandatory reporters - and they reported his case...that's when CPS/DSS stepped in & got him placed w/ foster care....CPS/DSS returned him to the house of doom, and CHIPs was denied visitation.

IMO, CHIPs was involved early on due to his congenital medical issues (just from reading between the lines from what all has been reported).

That makes sense, that they'd be involved d/t his health issues. But it begs the question: at what point did they become involved? If it was from birth, or soon after when he'd had the surgery, why did they wait until he was 15 months and 8 pounds to report these people?
 
Candle light vigil held for Aveion Lewis:

http://www.wdbj7.com/Global/story.asp?S=11870551


Aveion's mother, Morgan Lockett, was so upset she had to leave. She and her other children are staying with family.
<snip>
Aveion's uncle, Chris Ward, says Aveion's mother is staying with her family. She has not been charged.
Ward says he was never a fan of her sister's husband.
<snip>
As for his sister, Ward says he wants people to know she was not a bad person.
"My sister's not a monster and she definitely didn't play a role in her own son's death, if that's what people are thinking," says Ward. "It's like a bad dream right now for her."

I hate to say this, but not being charged is not the same as being eliminated as a person of interest or suspect. I will say, I do feel for Mr. Ward. He's suffered a tragic loss, and I can only imagine how hard it would be to contemplate your sister having any involvement in the death or cover up of the death of her own child.

That said, does anyone find it odd that no where have we seen it reported
-When the last time this child was seen alive.
-Whether Morgan Dockett was at work Thursday January 14th when her son was 'allegedly abducted'.

All we have is the one neighbor who believes BL was trying to set the foundation for the make believe story on Wednesday January 13 by showing him or her an anonymous phone call on the cell phone, which she believed was to stage the situation for the fake kidnappers.

Which is it? Was this child alive on the morning of Thursday January 14th when mom went to work? IF she went to work January 14?

And why does LE believe this child is in the river? What evidence do they have to search the river?

Any thoughts on why mom would leave so many loving caring people who came out for her son, even total strangers? Aside from the obvious- guilt which she could no longer hide and face these people, let alone her own family?

JMO
 
I believe it's highly likely that this child was dead on the 13th and maybe before that. And my gut tells me this child is not in the river.

And yes...I believe guilt was eating away at her and that's why she couldn't hold out for the duration of the vigil. Whether or not she had an actual hand in this...she knew something...she knew what her son was going through and she did nothing to protect her son.

I can understand Mr. Ward not wanting to think the worst of his sister as well, however he needs not to sugar-coat anything either, IMO. He can love her and stand beside her all he wants (and he probably should because she needs some serious help), but yet he needs to be realistic and logical about his sister's situation too.

I have to wonder if Aveion was used as a punching bag to keep the other children in line? Cowards always go after the weak. It's bad enough to beat up/abuse anyone - let alone a child who has special needs and has had serious surgery.

BL = a serious waste of a human being

I found where Robin of CHIP said they'd worked with him "before and after his time in foster care" ( http://www.wdbj7.com/Global/story.asp?S=11826595# ) ...but she doesn't say exactly when that was, and I haven't been able to find when Aveion's surgery was either....after reading that, it left me wondering how they worked w/ him after he was returned, because Robin told Michelle Sigona that they were denied visitation after he was returned to the "mother".

But yeah - you're right...why did it take him getting to 8lbs before a flag was raised??
 
See that's my point MBL' The child was reported missing Jan 14. Morgan Lockett had to sleep somewhere the evening of Wednesday January 13. Did she go to bed that night knowing her child was dead, prepared to go to work the following day and be part of the story BL concocted. The ONLY way Morgan Lockett was not involved in this was if there is PROOF Aveion was alive Thursday morning when she left for work-if she went to work, and that story, imo, could only come from the 4 year old.

JMO
 
I admit I can't help but wonder if BL would start talking if ML was behind bars. Would he care enough that the mother of his children was behind bars? Or would he 'throw her under the bus' like he did little Aveion? :steamed: :furious:

CHIP was not extensively involved in this case until after Aveion's placement in foster care. It's part of a mandatory referral for all children under the age of two for assessment and early intervention services. Which is not to say CHIP only serves foster children, of course. CHIP is income based and available to City kids 5 and under who qualify and take advantage of their services. Any contact they had prior to foster care was voluntary and at the mercy of his mother.
 
Right - I don't believe for one minute that BL could have come up with this plan on his own. Like I've said before...he's not a detail man. He had to have had help IMO. And who would that help have come from??? Not another low life -because he would be smart enough to know that another low life would likely turn on him in a minute when the pressure got too much...

But not his woman...the woman who would do anything for him...the woman who loved him despite anything he did... IMO that's the only person I believe he felt he could have trusted. It was probably one of those "oh baby, you know I didn't mean to do it...it was just pure accident...you believe me baby don't you...you know I could never do anything like that...oh baby say you believe me...you've got to help me...etc., etc., etc...."

What did she seem to care. If she knew this child was hated so much by BL and was abused by BL why wasn't she sending him to live with his father? (Yeah, I know, she probably wanted the $$$). But really...if she loved her child so much and was not the monster...then why didn't she do right by this child. It just goes to show that she didn't care about Aveion either - since she didn't do the right thing.

I feel sure whether forced to by BL or just out of pure hate for Aveion's father - she either gave up on Aveion or she just didn't care. Aveion probably had some of his father's looks and this didn't set too well with either of them.

Unfortunately, from what it appears, Aveion was just too much trouble...but they enjoyed the added $$$ he brought in on their meal ticket.

Of course all of this is JMO...

Oh I think the time is coming... He will throw her under the bus eventually. I don't believe there is any way he will take all of what is coming to him...

BBM...This info is crucial to the criminal case. They are never going to release it prior to bringing charges. That said, the public may never know the answer. Casey may have been charged without a body, but Don Caldwell has never brought charges without supreme confidence that he will win. He loves his conviction rate too much to risk it on something as "idealistic" as justice...(JMOO, of course)

As far as searching the river goes, it's the only other (besides a dumpster) logical place near Jamestown to dispose of a body that you're hoping won't be found.

And my own opinion on mom is she left because she was not welcome. There isn't a soul in town who thinks she's innocent.
 
thank you snoelle. Looks like the locals have some pretty strong opinions. Glad to see a fire is lit so to speak. I don't know if you saw my semi OT post regarding Joseph Wallace. Perhaps this will be the case the forces VA to make whatever necessary changes need to be made.
 
Hi everyone, been watching this case and wanted to put in my :twocents:
I have seen this so many times - when will women learn that they do not need to have a man to feel their own self-worth? When will they learn that their children are precious, and are their children FOREVER, and men come and go. When will they learn that as women and mothers they are awesome - no need for have a warm body in the bed and sacrifice the health and well-being of the children by allowing these criminals, abusers, drug addicts and losers in their home in charge of their care!
OK, that said, I have a couple of questions that I believe I posted before, but maybe someone has new info.
1. When was Aveion last actually seen by someone other that the family?
2. Was the mother home? I thought I remember dude saying he "came to" and his wife was standing over him.
3. What did she say happened to Aveion? What is her version?
Thanks all, any info would be helpful to me, I am really bugged by these cases.:(
 
This situation reminds me a lot of little Marc Bookal who is officially listed as missing, but likely murdered by his mother's boyfriend who has a history of violent abuse to children, and yet his mother allowed him to live in her home and care for her child. Same lousy situation, same kind of CPS fall-out.
IMO this perp BL murdered this child violently and threw him in the trash, and reported the "intruders" kidnapping after the trash was removed. He seems not to be too sharp, so IMO he just put him in the nearest dumpster probably in a black trash bag.
It feels like the mother did not actually inflict the violence, but is assisting in the cover-up for her "man."
BL wants to wait as long as possible for the body to be found - decomposition hides a lot of physical evidence, and he knows he did a lot of damage to the baby's body. He is biding his time until Aveion's body is found.:sick:

I asked because they are the ones who reported the parents to CPS. I wonder who got them involved prior to that...

This wasn't a new mom. She had an older daughter, and then 2 more after he was born. So, even tho' he had health issues, I don't (won't) buy that she didn't know better, that she wasn't aware that a 15 month old who weighed in at 8 pounds wasn't at risk. From all reports, his care wasn't rocket science... medication and supplements.

And remember, Lockett had to attend 'domestic violence alternative classes', which means he was physically abusive toward mom or kids or both (and he had a past conviction for domestic violence). So, IMO, she was at fault for allowing this person anywhere near her children.

Mom knew what was going on. I believe Aveion was killed before the 14th. I believe mom knows when he was killed and what happened to his body.

And ya know what? Let's say for a moment she didn't know. Let's say she went to work that morning, and everything was a-ok. She comes home to find her baby gone, and believes this SOB's story.

She knows now it was a lie. So what the HELL is keeping her from tearing the bars off that jail with her bare hands to get to that *advertiser censored*? I swear on all that is Holy, if that were one of mine, I WOULD be in jail, because that would be the only way they'd keep me from killing that son of a *****. Hell, I don't even know that precious child and I would love to have just 5 minutes with that worthless piece of crap.

I suppose uncle is overwhelmed and can't begin to process that his own flesh and blood would do such a thing, but sooner or later he needs to face the fact that she is to blame for what happened to Aveion. And IMO, she helped that lowlife dispose of the body and knew his story to the police was a hoax.
 
Sorry. This has me so angry I can't see straight. This is one case in which I'm glad VA has the death penalty, and that they have no qualms about carrying it out.

I wonder why there's been no mention of any search at the landfill; trash pickup in that area is on Tuesday. Unless there was a reliable witness (outside of the family) who saw him on Wednesday or Thursday.

Also, I hope they have a specialist interviewing the 4 year old. That could be where they'll get a break in this.

[respectfully snipped]

Cubby, Just near drowned drinking coffee....was taking a sip when opening this thread, your post came up first sight and was so startled that I sucked in half the cup......are they fing kidding? JMJ....
 
I will probably have rotten tomatoes throw at me for this comment...

I think the death penalty is too good for creatures like BL.

I'm of the opinion that criminals such as him should be locked up for life in a small cell (no window) with only a toilet and a bed...minimum requirements of food, no visitors, no phone, no media, or any other convenience and then they should be taken out of their cell each day for a round of beatings and torture for the rest of their natural life.
