MISHAWAKA, Ind. -- Could it be that the girl who was placed in foster care in Indiana isn't the same one who was seen on videotape being beaten in a department store parking lot?
Police are looking into that. A statement from a police investigator says some members of the public are concerned that police don't have the right child -- or the right mother, for that matter.
Last weekend, Madelyne Gorman Toogood surrendered to police in the company of a girl she identified as her 4-year-old daughter, Martha.
Because of the questions being raised about the child's identity, police are asking for footprint records that were taken after Toogood's daughter was born.
Toogood's attorney said it's "the craziest thing in the world" to suggest that police have the wrong woman and child.
Steven Rosen says, "That's the mother, and that's the daughter."
Toogood is facing a felony charge of battery to a child.
