Wow...just wow. What a horrible person.
The family of a missing 2-year-old boy insisted Tuesday they know nothing of the child's whereabouts and denounced as fantasy the mother's tale that she left him with two burqa-clad women in a Nevada motel parking lot last year.
None of the 11 counts filed against Tanisha Edwards this week is related directly to the boy's disappearance, but the charges that she repeatedly violated her probation may result in her probation being revoked and ensure that she stays in jail while sheriff's detectives exhaust their efforts to find the boy.
Homicide detectives have taken over the lead role in the investigation of missing 22-month-old Dwight Stallings.
Sacramento County officials are seeking an order to force the mother of Dwight Stallings, the missing 2-year-old who has not been seen in more than a year, to be removed from her jail cell and brought to dependency court to tell what she knows.
SACRAMENTO, CA - The mother of a toddler who went missing more than a year ago was in a Sacramento courtroom Wednesday for a probation violation hearing.
Inside a four-bedroom Elk Grove home, two brightly wrapped gifts sit atop a large stereo speaker in a corner of the living room.
Barbara Edwards bought the presents last Christmas, a set of blocks and another toy, then wrapped them in holiday paper and wrote in black marker, "Little Man, Dwight. Love, Granny."
