Phoenix, Arizona – Police are looking for a 5-year-old girl who believe has been kidnapped. Jahessye Shockley was last seen on October 11, 2011 with her older siblings while her mother went out to make errands.
Jahessye Shockley missing
One hour later around 5pm, her mother came back to find her gone.
Police believe Jahessye left through the front door, but don’t know what happened next.
Police have no suspects, evidence, or promising leads.
According to the Huffington Post Shockley’s mother, Jerice Hunter, feels the police are treating her like a suspect:
They’re treating me like that – the interrogations and the way I’ve been spoken to,” Jerice Hunter, Jahessy’s mother, said Monday in an interview with the AP. “(They’re) very disrespectful.”
Coombs said police have treated Hunter no differently than any other mother of a missing child. They conducted an initial interview as well as follow-ups because “people remember things, details, as time goes by.”
He said Hunter might believe she’s a suspect because “emotions are speaking.”
Meanwhile, Jahessye’s grandmother told The Arizona Republic on Sunday that Child Protective Services removed Hunter’s three other children from her home and put them in foster care.
Hunter decline to comment about her other children, but made a plea for her daughter’s safe return.
“I would really appreciate anybody who has any information, anyone who thinks they have seen anything, to contact the police,” she said. “If you have my child, please take her to a safe place, a public place where she can be located.”
She added: “The family will not be the same until the child is returned, and I will be relentless in my search.”
Description
Jahessye Shockley is a Black female, approximately 3-feet-5-inches tall, 55 pounds, and has black hair and brown eyes.
She has long hair that was in a ponytail and was last seen wearing a solid white T-shirt, blue jean shorts, and pink flip flops.
If you have any information, you’re encouraged to contact the Glendale Police Department at 623-930-HELP (4357).
