I would give them a call. Sounds to me like they are anxious for a tip. I think there is a likeness as well.
 
What about Tiaj Smith?

I'm not sure it matches but just throwing out the possibility.... She is believed to be with her father...

IMO this child has never been reported missing. She may never be id'ed unless extended family realize she is no longer with her parents.

"I think this child was not exposed to the general public, and that's possibly why she was able to go unnoticed," said Sergeant Richard Converse, who has been on the case since its onset.

It has been nearly three years and authorities are still trying to identify the skeletal remains of little "Jane Doe" in Opelika...

Dental records indicate the child was African-American and between 4 and 7-years-old when she died; however, the size of her skull could indicate she was even younger. This inconsistency may be due to the fact that the child suffered from a disability, or that she was malnourished due to severe neglect. The child also suffered extensive bone injuries and damage in one eye. "The type of injuries explained to us would have been very debilitating," Converse said. "It's really horrible."
 
Another thought here, Opelika butts up to the city of Auburn. Anyone could be attending college there from anywhere with a child in tow. You know this child was probably signed up for some kind of disability benefits somewhere. Wish we had a yearly verification system for this so they could see the child at least once a year for benefits to continue. Bet we would have a few caught without the children they claim.
 
Has this child been mentioned? Latoya Brown. TUSCALOOSA | Only a few names remain on the once-massive list of people missing after the April 27 tornado.

Latoya Brown’s name was one of the nearly 600 on that list in the beginning. Now, it’s one of just five.

Robert and Toye Jackson haven’t heard from their daughter since the day before the tornado.

On Jan. 28, 2012, the partial skeletal remains of a little girl were found in the woods behind a mobile home park in Opelika, according to Police Capt. Shane Healey. The child, of African heritage, likely died between 2011 and 2012. Authorities determined Opelika Jane was between 4 and 7 years old. She was likely "abused and malnourished" before her death leading authorities to believe she was murdered.

Her height, weight and eye color could not be determined from the remains but the FBI Victims Identification Project created a facial reconstruction that shows what she may have looked like. She has not been buried, Healey said. "Her remains are still being analyzed by forensic scientists for clues," he said.
 
I was going to say that this child was probably completely 'off-radar' and possibly even an unregistered birth, but if the child did indeed have a disability, then I agree with the poster who said that she was probably signed up for disability benefits.

If her parent/guardian continued to claim these benefits for her, how long would it be before this was reviewed? When she reaches adulthood? Or would it be sooner than that?
