Here's a woman ~ she has a little kid ~ kid is missing ~ she didn't say anything about that for a full month while she was busy getting tattoos, partying, and so forth.
So, what happened to the kid?
I think you have to hold her seriously accountable for the break in the chain of custody.
There was a child neglect charge as well. Not reporting a missing child for 31 days should at least qualify for child neglect, even if you can’t get your mind around a murder charge. And yet, they found her guilty of lying to the police. So I have to ask: what did she lie about? Think about it.
