Amber Alert hoax
 
This was the first case in Maryland involving the Amber Alert missing children's info system. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a hoax and the "father" is being charged with murder.
WHY THE F*** DID HE HAVE TO BE BLACK? This crap just feeds into horrible stereotyping!

:mad: :mad:

Md. Cops: Father Charged in Amber Alert

BALTIMORE - A man who set off Maryland's first Amber Alert with a phony tale of an illegal cabdriver abducting his infant daughter has been charged with first-degree murder in the girl's apparent death, police said Wednesday.

Police had questioned Kenneth Jenkins, 20, since Tuesday, when he reported that his 2-month-old daughter, A'Shia Jenkins, was taken after a robbery. He was arrested and charged late Wednesday with first-degree murder, said Officer Troy Harris, a police spokesman.

"We received enough information ... to give us reason to believe the child is dead," Harris said.

The (Baltimore) Sun reported on its Web site Wednesday night that the girl's mother, 19-year-old Lakeisha Ballou, said Jenkins called her early Tuesday and told her he put the baby's body in a trash bin after he found her dead.

The girl's mother said Jenkins told her he found the baby dead when he awoke Tuesday morning. He told her he panicked, wrapped the body in a pink blanket and put it in a cardboard box, according to the report. Police declined to comment on the report.

Authorities spent much of Wednesday searching a landfill for the girl's body. Harris said the search for the infant's body would resume Thursday, but not at the landfill. He would not say where authorities intended to look.

Jenkins initially told police he got into a taxi with A'Shia and her twin sister, but the driver pulled over several blocks later and demanded money at gunpoint. The father told investigators the driver told him to get out, and he was able to escape with one child before the car sped off.

Maryland issued an Amber Alert, relaying information about the case through radio and television broadcasts and electronic highway signs. The alert is named for Amber Hagerman, a 9-year-old Texas girl who was abducted and killed.

But the alert was canceled because of "inconsistencies" in Jenkins' story and information uncovered by authorities, police spokeswoman Ragina Averella said.

State police received "innumerable" reports from motorists who spotted the white, four-door Honda Accord described by Jenkins. Detective Donny Moses said police did not have any regrets about issuing the alert.

"I think the issue is a 2-month-old baby," Moses said. "That's the bottom line."

A preliminary review showed the alert was issued correctly, said Carla Proudfoot, director of the Maryland Center for Missing Children. A full review was planned.
