The bolded above sounds ominous. What was the evidence of abduction?

I had the same reaction when I read that. Yikes.

I live in KC and the media is doing a great job at getting the word out about this! I heard mention of this Amber Alert four times from the two radio stations I listen to during my drive to work!

I haven't read this thread yet, and don't know the details (will go back and read soon), but I'm praying for this poor girl!

The window to missing baby #LisaIrwin is on the front side of the home...and appears to be missing glass.

www.crimereports.com plug in 64117 and look just north of the river to find this neighborhood. Sex offenders have their own little symbol.

KC does a great job utilizing Crime Reports.

Sounds like LE thinks a ransom call may be made? Any other thoughts as to why they would take their cell phones? :waitasec:

missing glass...I wonder if the entire pane is missing or is it broken and not stated in the tweet. Missing pane would tell me this was well planned. I don't see it was broken for wouldn't that awaken the parents?

I think that is SOP in any missing person case these days.

oh my!

I wonder if it was before the abduction or after? Did the kidnapper break the window or was it already broken and he/she entered through it?

Really? This is the first time I hear cell phones from family members are taken away in an abduction case!

Really? This is the first time I hear cell phones from family members are taken away.

They were taken in the Hailey dunn case

 

[hollye]

I think they have to rule out family members 1st and checking cell phones would assist with that.

 

[SuziQ]

Really? This is the first time I hear cell phones from family members are taken away in an abduction case!

At this point LE is treating this as an abduction. Believe me that LE is running a parralel investigation and the parents are the focus. Sad but true.

I wonder what the weather has been like, any rain, any chance of foot prints? Maybe there is sparse grass and dirt or sand near the house. The lawn doesn't look all that lush to me.

KC hasn't had rain in a few weeks... it's been sunny and 70s for three weeks straight.

Police want to reiterate, the #amberalert is being treated as an abduction. Live update in 5 minutes.

Looking at the cell phones is faster than getting a search warrant and waiting on the provider to provide info.

OK. Gotcha

 

[illinialum]

I work closely with certain KCPD members who may have information on this case. My job has nothing to do with crime/missing persons/etc. But even so, I'll try to find any ongoing updates related to this case.

I'm so worried for this poor girl.

Very dry. But in that, there is a chance that there will be dusty prints below the window.
