Police suspect foul play in the disappearance of a man, woman, and a 4-month-old baby.

Jarib Bennett, Sasha Davis, and Davis' infant daughter went missing while visiting Rochester last month.

Police recovered their abandoned vehicle in southwest Rochester.

Davis' aunt, Gwendolyn Hardy, canvassed the neighborhood on Saturday, handing out fliers and talking to residents. She said Davis would never have disappeared for long periods of time.

"Sasha shouldn't even have left the Bronx. I don't care what she was coming to do. She should have thought about her health. She just had a baby. She shouldn't have left,” Handy said.

The Rochester Police Department’s Major Crimes unit is investigating.

Did they know where they were going, or was it their first time driving upstate to visit friends? Maybe they had gotten lost and encountered foul play?
An abandoned vehicle is never good.. was the car broken down, were there signs of a struggle, did it appear abandoned with wallets gone also, etc?

I almost wonder if maybe Sasha's husband had a problem with her traveling with Jarib.

Sasha Davis - Charley Project profile - Sasha G. Davis – The Charley Project
Sasha mentioned in Charley's blog Sasha Davis – The Charley Project Blog
Their Porchlight profile with some old news articles - http://s13.zetaboards.com/PorchlightUSA/topic/1191295/1/

Jarib residing in New Jersey left behind 2 daughters and wife. Sasha left behind one more child (8 year old) and apparently boyfriend or husband (can't find confirmation anywhere). Jarib was allegedly friend of Sasha's family (and not her partner).

Sasha's family knew about her trip to Rochester but were unaware that Jarib was travelling with her. Sasha and Jarib were going to visit friends there (acquaintance from high school). Car they were travelling in which was later found abandoned was rented for this trip.

Nothing new in the article, but title has me puzzled, calling them family. So were they or weren't they family?

Jarib Bennett's NamUs page - Missing Person Case

They all left Bronx for Rochester on February 15, 2008 and were planning to return on February 19. On February 27, their rental vehicle was found abandoned Genesee Street in Southwest Rochester, near the area of Genesee Valley Park.

My assumption has always been that they were partners (relationship but not marriage) and the child may or may not have been the child of Jarib Bennett. Until right this second I've never considered that she might be his sister and the child his niece, though.

I was wondering if you had an update on this? I’m intrigued and wondering if that’s the same guy and if so, why is he still listed as missing... ty.
