2. This case was on CNN headline news on Friday
It's a horrible case. In this one I'm convinced it was the mother. She has spent time in jail for child abuse. Even her mom and sister weren't saying for sure they think the mother is innocent.

I don't think it's just a racism thing though, I think abducted babies get more attention than abducted school-aged children. For instance, there is always the possibility a 5 year old wandered away and got lost (as her mother asserts). A baby doesn't just wander out of the home, KWIM? I think that's more the fascination. But yeah, in general, they pay far less attention to cases involving black children, sadly.
