Am assuming since they are confident he is in the landfill that they retrieved physical evidence from the trash can. Doubtful they would make such a declaration if they weren't effectively 100% sure. That would mean actual physical evidence. A direct admission by the perpetrator wouldn't even...
Agree re: legal process. Technically, however, the child wasn't legally under her care at the time as that right was removed from her fairly recently, IIRC. I'm not a legal expert by any means, but I suppose that leaving the child in the mother's (informal, legally revoked) care might put any...
Haven't thought this completely through yet, but the only scenario I can think of where events have played out like they have and LE hasn't made an arrest of its purported 'Suspect Number 1", is if 'Suspect Number 1' is actually not 'Suspect Number 1' and was announced by LE only to pressure her...
Could potentially be a fentanyl OD if they used and used together. Wouldn't be the first time a bad batch had surfaced in a rural area. Otherwise it would have to be foul play at this point. Maybe rode up on something they didn't need to see or met up with someone who did them harm.
JMO.
Interesting how they specifically identified her as SUSPECT NUMBER 1, as if there is a NUMBER 2 (accessory), and perhaps even a NUMBER 3 (neglect).
That 5:30 call to the babysitter, though. That 5:30 call...
Some folks spend an eternity trying to conceive children and have a family. Cases where a child goes missing due to a neglectful, abusive, and impulsive parent or guardian with substance abuse and/or anger issues makes me think of those oft-desperate, wanting folks and how the world can be so...
So many marshes and other random, isolated wetlands in and around Savannah that I doubt that pools, dry brush/wooded areas, trashcans, or other 'conventional' murder disposal locations would be useful to - and likely not even considered by - someone looking to hide a body. A marsh would swallow...
That 5:30-ish text to the babysitter is what pinpoints the case for me. The rest could be reasonably explained away as an accident or even - God forbid - a home invasion and kidnapping. But that text...
JMO.
I recall a similar case where the BF was the perpetrator while mom slept, and then (temporarily) convinced mom that the kid was missing inexplicably.
JMO.
I mean, foul play is pretty much the only thing that could be in the cards at this point. No other statistically probable cause for his disappearance exists. LE can't realistically assume otherwise.

The thing about homelessness is that it tends to be romanticized, sensationalized, and/or sanitized by media, and therefore skews otherwise reasonable folks' perceptions about what homelessness actually means (and the reason folks generally become that way). I'd bet less than 1% of homeless...
The last time I saw something like this the boyfriend had rage issues and the mother had codependence issues with a heaping dose of emotional/physical abuse. Amazing that a mother would lie to authorities about her child being murdered by a man with the emotionally maturity of a ticked off...
Perhaps I'm just a washed up old cynic, but I tend not to assume that last sighting eyewitnesses are of the altruistic variety. Particularly those living in tents on the streets of a relatively dangerous city with an oft-dangerous homeless population who also happen to possess the shirt that she...
I hope the report from the homeless tent occupants wasn't a CYA.
"She was here. She asked for a place to sleep. We shared crackers and water and menthols and sang Kumbaya" yada yada yada. "Oh, and she left her shirt here."
What the heck? Who in the world believes she switched shirts in a...
But we usually hear about it, especially in big cases like this. Reporters are typically pretty dogged at locating and relaying search areas and LE activity. Twitter is usually abound with photos of sites, etc. Yet none of that thus far. Not saying it is indicative of anything, necessarily, just...
They could be like ducks on water, of course, but despite having a suspect in custody that tried to end himself LE doesn't appear to be aggressively looking for potential bodies here, especially bodies that could be mere minutes away. And from an evidentiary standpoint we all unfortunately know...
