Looks to me like the person in the security pictures IS the mother, same hair... - tet68Yes, it does look like the "mother."
But it also looks like the "man" who admitted to kidnapping her. - BykrBayb
After posting that, I worried that some might think I meant he admitted kidnapping the "mother," but it never occurred to me anyone would think I was calling the precious little girl an "it."
Sorry ‘bout that, BykrBayb. I DID think you were writing about the little girl. I guess one could refer to “person” as “it”, especially if you don’t know it the person is a male or female. My bad. Sorry, again.
