Here is another missing child case that is very open and shut but the media and police seem to feel that there is reason to wait. Unreal! Read this and you be the judge...
2 year old Bianca Jones was reported missing on December 2, 2011. Bianca was with her father De'Andre Lane on Friday December 2nd. His story was that he dropped off a cousin and then was car jacked by 3 men in hoodies. He gave a very average description (Black men, black hoodies, beards). De'Andre was car jacked and little Bianca was in the back seat of the car. He then went home and called the police and reported her missing and kidnapped. She has not been seen since that day. Within the last few weeks De'Andre and his attorney have appeared on Nancy Grace and Fox News. De'Andre was forced to speak because for some reason he thought Nancy Grace wanted to speak to the lawyer..NOT! When he was asked what the car jackers looked like, the lawyer said, "We have given the descripstion to the police." Nancy got pissed to say the least. "We know that, but we need to know just what the car jackers looked like in order to find your daughter!" He seemed to have something to hide.
Banika Jones (Bianca's mother) spoke to CNN, Fox New and the crew on The Tom Joyner Morning Show (where I first heard about the case). She was very dry and never really answered any questions. Her response was, "I just want to find my daughter." Tom Joyner asked her if she spoke with De'Andre Lane and she said no she didn't have time to talk to him. I was stunned! The first person I would have called was the idiot that left my baby in the car and allow her to be kidnapped! So at that point I knew someone was lying.
Since then cadaver dogs have sniffed out the scent of a decomposed body in De'Andre's apartment and in Bianca's car seat.
So my question is: When is a warrant going to be issued in this case?? This man used an age old story of "car jacking" to cover up the fact that he murdered the child. If anything, there is a possibility that he was involved in drugs and used his child's life to pay a debit. Or something happened at his house and he was too afraid to tell the truth. After all, De'Andre has an arrest record. Biana's Aunt was questioned on Nancy Grace as well. Nancy asked her if she talked to De'Andre and she said that as soon as she got the news that Bianca was missing she called (unlike the mother). "De'Andre was stuttering and babbling. I didn't waste anytime on trying to get the truth out of him because he wouldn't talk."
I feel that there is evidence that proves that fowl play was involved in this case. The fact that De'Andre Lane felt the need to hire an attorney says it all!
Keep this little one in your prayers...

Searching For The Truth - The Jhessye Shockley Story
Thousand of little children go missing every year. But it is very heartbreaking when little children of color are missing with very little media attention.
The case of little Jhessye Shockley has been my main focus ever since I heard about it in October on the Tom Joyner Morning Show. I read the Justice coloumn on CNN.com everyday and I could not recall one mention of this poor little girl. Don't get me wrong, all children that have gone missing are important and deserve equal media attention. But it just seems that black children never get the same level of media attention.
Here's the story behind the case: Jhessye was reported missing on October 11, 2011. Her mother (Jerice Hunter) told Glendale, AZ police that she left to go to a local check cashing store and told the older siblings to clean up the leaves in the back yard and Jhessye was in the house. She returned and Jhessye was gone. An Amber Alert was issued and the resedents of Glendale began to search for the missing 5 year old girl.
Later on the next week, the police issued a statement that Jerice Huunter had a criminal history of child abuse. Then not long after that, her 3 remaining children (included a newborn boy) were taken into state custody. Jerice was asked to take a lie detector test and refuse. She then lashed out at the media with complaints that no one was looking for Jhessye because she was black. The main focus should not be the fact that she has a history of child abuse, but that Jhessye is found.
While in a foster care the older sibling began to talk to the foster family about what happened to Jhessye. She said (as stated in court documents) that Jerice return home in September (date is unknown) and saw Jhessye wearing a long sleeve shirt and watching TV with a neighborhood boy (not much older than Jhessye) and she called her a "ho". Jerice then drug her into the bedroom, beat her and threw her in the closet. The older sibling said she heard her sister scream and cry. When Jerice would leave the apartment the older sibling would give Jhessye food and water. However, she remained in the closet. After several weeks, the older sibling said that little Jhessye looked asleep and like a zombie. Her eyes were black and the closet smelled like death.
Before long, Jerice began to burn incense to rid the odor and cleaned all her shoes in the closet with bleach. A credit card statement proves that Jerice Hunter purchased bleach and other household cleaning supplies that day.
As of now, the Glendale police department has evidence to prove that Jhessye was thrown in trash bin and taken to a local landfill.
So a missing child case has quickly turned into a murder investagation.
Questions: Why were Jerice Hunter's children released into her custody after her release from prison?
Where were the family members?
Why didn't the school send an officer when they noticed that Jhessye had not been to school?
As the evidence stacks up, the only logical thing to conclude is that little Jhessye Shockley was murder by her mother Jerice Hunter.
Thanks to Google (NOT NANCY GRACE) that I have been able to follow the case.
As the news breaks I will be updating this blog.

Holding It Down For Yourself
I've run across situations that have left me speechless, but this is truly a sad state of affairs. It seems that people throw all caution to the wind to save a failing relationship. Granted, I've had my share of bum a** men but at some point a woman needs to pull it together. When love makes you forget who you are and what you stand for, it's time to take a step back and re-group yourself.
I know that everyone wasn't raised in a "Girl Power" household, but as a person who was, I know when to say enough is just simply enough! When a man drags through hell and back and you can't get your head above water there's a problem. Independence is something that a strong woman should hold dear. But sadly, some of us forget how it feels "hold it down" for ourselves. There's nothing wrong with wanting your husband or boyfriend to take care of you, after all that what they are supposed to do. But when homeboy doesn't have a chap of hustle in him, it's time for you to make it happen for yourself.
Don't drop the ball on maintaining your bills, kids, priorities to make things work with him. Especially when you had money and status prior to him showing up on the scene. Why lose your self investment to make a person who never had anything or will never be anything happy?
Love can make you blind, deaf, dumb and crazy all at the same time. But when you really look at the big picture, love just isn't enough and it sure as hell doesn't pay the bills!!
So what's a girl to do? Should you have a heart to heart with homeboy for the thousandth time? Should you pretend like things will get better in time? NO!! Shake off the loving feeling and get YOUR mind right! Fact is a person that comes from nothing has to want to have better. Nothing from nothing is always nothing...simple math!
Don't allow yourself to sink to the gutter cause that's where he's from. Pick yourself up and give him his walking papers. Cause chances are if you have given the relationship a chance and no progress has been made in your life, but rather, you seem to be going backward, it's time for him to go.
How do I know this you may ask? Because it happened to me. I loved a man that had zero hustle in him. Dude wanted to make money his way. But it left the household lacking. All the love in the world can't save you when the rent is due. I stepped out on faith, and gave him walking papers. It was hard, but I'm sooooo very glad I did it. I still love him but I can't be a fool forever...and neither should any other woman.
Sometimes God will block a blessing from coming to you because of who you have in your house..BELIEVE IT!! Doors will open if you open your front door and give him permission to walk out!
Beyonce' said it best...To Left, To left, Everything You Own In The Box To The Left!!!

First Post
OK, I'm bored so I figured this would be the perfect time to post my first blog. So here we go...
I never seen to find time for me at home so work is my haven of peace where I can find a listening ear and a warm smile from someone. Anyone? LOL Anyway, I always too busy for me. And can barely find time to think. So this is going to be an outlet for my inner thoughts and sounding board for all those many scenarios that play out in my head. Thanks to my lovely friend and co-workwer introducing me to Blogger, I have something else to muse over other than Facebook. :-) Strangely enough, I am getting sick of Facebook because it really reminds me of MySpace and Tagged....Can You Say BARF?!
