Update in the Isabel Celis Case 4/25/12

Isabel was reported missing at 8:00am on Saturday, April 21st. And now Tucson Police have moved the search to the local landfill. Police have reason to believe that clues that can lead them to Isabel are in the landfill. They are sifting through tons of garbage that was picked up on Saturday from the alley near Isabel's home.

Police have scaled back the search of the family home and are focus on the surrounding areas. The Celis family is allowed back in the home but have not yet returned. The police plan to search drainage pipes and sewers for Isabel.

Ironically though, Arizona is the same state where Jhessye Shockley went missing back in October of 2011. Sadly enough, Tucson and Glendale are too very different places. Funding was a large part in why it took so long to search the landfill for Jhessye but yet Tucson was able to start a landfill search three days after Isabel was reported missing.

I think if all missing children case were handled the same way, we would be able bring the children home safe. Same state, children of the same age. But both missing children cases were handled very differently. The laws regulating cases like this should be streamlined. Landfill searches should not take months to organize. Due to the fact the if there is a body there, it will begin decomposing faster than if it were buried or in the woods for instance. It’s simple science.
