The child was found in good health Monday night in a Saugerties home about 130 miles (210 kilometers) east of Cayuga Heights, where she was reported missing in July 2019, when she was 4 years old, according to Saugerties police.
Police said they initially suspected she had been abducted by her noncustodial parents.
Officers executing a search warrant found the girl hidden with her noncustodial mother in a cold, wet, makeshift enclosure under a basement staircase after about an hour of looking. They caught a first glimpse of the girl’s feet after removing some wooden steps, according to police.
Paramedics found the girl to be in good health. She was turned over to her legal guardian and reunited with her older sister.
The noncustodial parents and a third person were arraigned on charges of custodial interference and endangering the welfare of a child.
It could not immediately be determined whether any of them had attorneys to represent them.
B”H found alive.
She’s apparently a step-child
really newsworthy, domestic dispute.
“was found hidden under a staircase by officers” just curious why police were hiding her?
Kidnapping a child? Lock them up and melt the key.
“None have been charged with kidnapping.
The parents were said to have lost custody of Paislee sometime around 2019, but it is unclear why.”
Some missing information still out there.
What does non custodial parents mean?
I saw a comment from a cousin of hers. He stated that her parents had a drug problem & had made bad choices & therefore the maternal grandparents were given custody of her & her big sister. The grandparents picked the older child up from school but the younger one was not in school yet and was taken away by her parents before the authorities could get her. She lived with her parents & paternal grandfather since 2019 She was found in good health & well taken care of. She was not attending school (obviously otherwise they would have snatched her).
She had her own nice bedroom and was only hidden under the stairs when the authorities came knocking looking for her on several occasions..
That Headline should be taken away by police. B”H she is alive.
she was with he noncustodial parents (biological parents) for 4 years and found in good health…
So the government stole someone’s children and gave them to someone else
? Interesting. Perhaps mommy wanted her children back
