From what I have read about FDF is that his life was about living on the streets in a shadow world.
From my opion he knew his way around prostitions and ex inmates ect ect.,in that world he could have been easliy made conntact with other paedophiles and been introduced in the paedophile networks.I do believe I have read it some where that he mentioned something like that. Another possibility that he took Sharon from that world.
(The X files (Regina Louf + 3 other woman) gives a good insight about the world in wich the abuse takes place,even she was "introduced" at very young age by her grandmother to the abused world.All the statements that she gave were correct,the police who was inteviewing her and checked everything were later under attack and under investigation,their investigation was sabotaged by others who later were promoted,while the investigators (who worked on the Xfiles) had faced many difficulties during life and career. The X files were closed down and the leads that came from it never checked out or invested. )
What I have noticed is that the investigation about Sharon raises a lot of questions.
A box of evidence is missing/stolen?
Her Dna keeps raising questions if it is hers or not..?
And I never understood if the box of pictures of abused girls/woman that was owned by FDF were indentified or investigated..?
Or where there only pictures of Sharon and Cheryl C in that box?
Did he some how be informed by newspapers orso from another state about the missing of a toddler?
I do think he would do everything to stay informd and updated by the person(s) he took/got Sharon from with different sources some how
From what I have read about him is that he perefered young girls woman to be raped and abuse,it does not make sence that he "allowed" Sharon to keep a boy and two daughters were being adopted,was it is final string to keep Sharon with him with Micheal in his "care"?

Even his connections with police is raising questions with me,to my opion police have the oppertunity to check the background of their friends,maybe they didn't know his real name but at the memorail for Sharon,he really liked it showing his power by bringing the police with him,it almost looks like a statement towards Sharon's friends.
As a policemen it would surely feels suspious having a friend like FDF,every person in touch with Sharon found him odd during periods of her time
At the club The Mons Venus ,where Sharon and Cheryl worked they did find him creepy and he was even thrown out of there ( as I recall correctly)
Maybe FDF had a lot of luck getting away with it,but I do feel that it is just the tip of the iceberg and faul play kept him in that "luck"
 
To my knowledge, everyone in the pics found in '94 under the stolen pickup were identified. They included Cheryl Commesso, Sharon, two young girls who were neighbors of Floyd's in Oklahoma (though not abused, they were "posed suggestively") and, I believe, some pics of a neighbor girl from Florida on Floyd's boat (also not abused or hurt in anyway).

The report of Floyd's police escort came from Sharon's co-workers at one of the clubs at which she danced, and is somewhat suspect in my mind. (just my opinion, of course). Some of the local articles from the time of Sharon's death quote the police as being highly suspicous of Floyd and his actions.

I am new here and have been reading the book Matt wrote and I think the reason they either will not tell who Sharon is or do not know is because I believe Floyd could have killed her parent/parents. He did not have a problem with murdering anyone. That could easily be why there is nobody looking for her as a lost child, at least that anyone has made a connection with. And if Floyd is as criminal minded as he sure seems to be the murders are unsolved and nobody does actually know where Sharon came from. I wouldn't believe anything he said about how he "got" Sharon. Just my opinion.
 
Hi and Welcome to WS Dawnmha!

Your theory is a reasonable one. We are glad to have you here and your interest in Sharons case! Hopefully one day her true name will be restored.

So do I, this is such a very sad story and I think she had outs, at the time her best friend was involved, but was either too afraid to tell them what was going on or felt some sort of loyalty to the monster. I read somewhere that after she was in the hospital (prior to her death) she kept saying, "Daddy, Daddy". But I still wonder if Tonya was really Sharon as well. I have not been able to find any pictures of her as Tonya except for one with her son and she looks a bit different. But probably the plastic surgery and years of abuse could have changed her appearance.

I have also wondered if someone is covering some of this up???? Don't know why they would, but who knows? Nice to meet you and thanks for welcoming me.

Oh another thing that is so sad is that there are so many cases like this, especially older ones, when they did not have the technology as of today. Can you just imagine how many people throughout human history have just "disappeared". And imagine the pain of the loved ones, but something tells me very strongly either she wasn't loved in any paternal or maternal way or that her parents were murdered.
 
I'm still putting together audio and video to post on the Sharon Marshall case. The audio is from my six hours interviewing Franklin Floyd in prison. The video is from appearances on several tv programs where the producers found other footage of Floyd, Sharon and Michael. Taking a little extra time converting the files, but should be up in a couple of weeks.
 
Any updates on the possible match between Sharon and Rhonda? I think as far as looks go the two little girls are the best match so far.

The possibility seemed ideal for a while there and then all then all questioning about DNA testing was discouraging.

Maybe I missed it.... But has there been a clear answer to whether or not Rhonda's grandmother was ever tested. It sounds a little fishy to me when it comes to the NCMEC and LE on all of this. Are they hiding something? They should know for sure if she was tested or not, isn't that what case files are for?

I know these things take long, but the fact that they haven't (as far as I know) started any testing yet is frustrating to say the least.
 
The following was written by Steven Stayner who was kidnapped and held captive by Kenneth Parnell for 7 years:

Steven died tragically in a motorcycle accident in 1989

From the Steven Stayner Memorial page - Steven's Legacy:

"When it comes to finding abducted children, most people think of posters and milk cartons.* Photographs are very important in finding abducted children.* But to depend on pictures alone is a big mistake.
*** "That is because the pictures may not reach the isolated areas where abductors take children, but also because children change and abductors can easily change a child's appearance.

*** "I believe the single most important thing you can do to help find abducted children is to be aware of the problem and keep an eye out for suspicious 'family' situations around you.

*** "For starters, many abductors are men appearing as single parents, with one child.* They intentionally choose to live in isolated areas and are generally not socially active.

*** "You should know that the first thing abductors often do is convince the child that their parents don't want them.* My abductor faked phone calls to my parents.* He actually told me he went to court to get legal custody.* I was seven.* I had nowhere else to turn.* I eventually accepted the lie as reality.

*** "The next stage was adapting for survival.* This meant doing anything to avoid punishment.* I actually helped my abductor keep the secret.

*** "So don't expect abducted children to come up and ask for help.* They're totally dependent on their abductors.* And if they're being sexually abused, which is usually the case, the last thing they want is to draw attention to it.

*** "I trusted no one.* My greatest fear was that someone would find out the truth and confront my 'father'.* I didn't know what he'd do.* As bad as things were, I knew it could get worse.

*** "To survive, abducted children must learn to lie.* When people would ask me about my past, I made it up.* I now assume people knew I was lying, but no one ever tried to find out why.

*** "Throughout the seven years, we were constantly moving.* We lived in five different towns, in a dozen houses and trailer homes.* The minute my abductor felt people were getting too close, we'd pack up.* That kind of movement is typical of abductions.* So is a child who's not enrolled in school.

*** "My abductor was careful and made sure I was always enrolled.* If people paid attention to my relationship with my 'father' there were clues that something was wrong.* It was not a normal father-son relationship.* And among other things, at 13, I was taller than, and looked nothing like, my 'father'.

*** "You should know that most abductors are pedophiles, not psychotic killers.* They don't have good relationships with adults.* They start out molesting children and graduate to longer abductions.* And when they murder children, often it's to get rid of the evidence.

*** "As is often the case, there were people involved with my abductor who knew the truth.* These people could have saved me at any time, but were afraid of legal trouble.* You should know that in other cases where people have come forward to save a child, they have not been prosecuted.* These people often hold the power of life and death.

*** "Before I was grabbed, my abductor had been convicted of child molesting.* Throughout my abduction, he never stopped molesting other children.* Even so, after taking me from my home, abusing me for seven years and abducting another 5-year old, he served only three and one-half years in jail.

*** "Today, no one knows how many missing children are dead or how many now live as I did.* But if you're going to help, you have to be aware of the real nature of stranger abduction and be committed to helping children.* While it may be hard for you to tell an abducted child from an abused child, it's not hard to tell a child in trouble.* And it's not hard to do something about it.* If you know of, or suspect, there's a situation where a child is in trouble, please call the police."

Help find missing children

*** Many abducted children have been returned because people have recognized a face from a poster.* So please, when you see a picture of a missing child on a poster, in a magazine or on a postcard, take the time to see if you recognize that child.

*** Unfortunately, abductors take steps to change a child's appearance.* Children change over time and there are so many faces to remember.

*** If you are aware of behaviors, and you know what to look for, there are many clues that can actually be even more effective in helping you spot an abducted child.* Because many abducted children are told by their abductors that their parents don't want them, abducted children feel dependent on their abductors for survival.* They almost live in fear of being "found out".

Possible signs of an abducted child*
and what to look for:
*
Incomplete or unforwarded school records.

No birth certificate.

No verification of immunization shots and missing medical and dental records.

The child seems withdrawn or neglected.

The child seems fearful of parent(s) or guardian(s).

The child has behavioral or academic problems.* They may lie frequently trying to cover up the truth about their life.

Attendance at school is often sporadic.* They don't take part in any after-school activities.

There seems to be inconsistencies in names, dates of birth, addresses and past events.

Attendance at many different schools.

Reluctance to give school personnel any personal or family information.

Sometimes they're confused about their real name and don't seem to trust anyone.

The child seems fearful of law enforcement.

The child may not remember the other parent.

The other parent may be listed as deceased or unknown or not listed at all on emergency information documents.

The "parent" may be overprotective and keeps very close tabs on the child's activities, friends and comments.

The child may have dyed hair or has other appearance modifications.

You should be sensitive to any "family" situation that doesn't feel right.* The most common non-family abductor relationship is a single child with a single man who is passing as the "father" or "grandfather".

Abductors and their victims generally move around a lot to keep from being found out.* As a result, abducted children live a transient life, often living in out-of-the-way cabins and trailer parks.* With little sense of stability, they don't make friends or fit in easily.

The child may not wear properly fitting clothes.

The child is reluctant to talk about where they lived in the past.

The child never invites friends to their home... --> --> --> --> --> .. -->--> -->--> -->

Trust your instincts.* If you see a situation that seems suspicious, call your local law enforcement.

What is the best timeline for this case? I have seen several on other sites and the one on Sharon's forum in the archived section here, but that one doesn't seem complete.
 
Ugh, no news-frustrated! Thinking of u all day today, beautiful child, amazing woman, loving mother.
 
Bumping for Sharon and Michael. I wish Matt would post his information!!
 
I just finished reading "A Beautiful Child". I am anxious to find out if Rhonda is a match. Do we have any word from anyone on whether or not her family members are even being tested at this point? Like another poster said, it seems to fit with Floyd's habit of telling half-truths - mom was a prostitute, met in Chicago or the midwest, was 'given' the child. In the same way that the Denmans' possible connection to Floyd was tracked in the book, I wonder if any possible connections between Floyd and the adoptive family can be traced.

Furthermore, since this is the first place (that I know of) that I've read of Rhonda being a possibility, I wonder what Floyd's reaction would be if Rhonda's case was brought up to him - I am just wondering if he would get angry or have any different reaction than the other missing girls who have been tested and ruled out. or if someone mentioned the adoptive parents' names to him - if you'd see a glimmer of recognition (I am hopeful, but since he's a sociopath and has no conscience and therefore does not have the same emotional reactions as the rest of us). He does seem to want LE to "figure it out" on their own - as I've seen noted, he seems to get off on the knowledge that it took LE so long to discover him.
 
does anyone know if Michael Hughes' bio's father's DNA has been submitted to be matched to possible UID'd children? From ABC it sounds like they definitely know who the father is, and that he has been involved in the search for Michael.
 
Is it possible that "Sharon" could have slipped through the cracks with DSS, like Rilya Wilson? And taken by Floyd claiming to be a DSS worker? It would not surprise me at all if this were the case. It's a tall order, but I wonder if there's some way to look at DSS' records, starting in the state Floyd claims to have gotten her in, and look at female children of that age placed in foster homes around that time, for which the trail seemingly "ends" - i.e. no further records or no further homes placed in. Floyd did mention taking her from an "orphan's home" and I wonder if that was a DSS-placed foster home.

Has LE also looked into the possibility that Floyd was a foster parent at that time? He could have faked his background and given a false name. And then when he moved with her, all he had to do was change his name again. I have no idea how one would go about determining this - maybe cross-check DSS records of foster parents with Floyd's known aliases? Or look at who the assigned foster parents were of girls in that age range (4-5?)I doubt Floyd would have kept her for very long before going on the run with her.
