poor little baby would have been 1 year old tomorrow. 
i agree with Mark Fuhrman...she's probably in the river.
my opinion is maybe one day some skeletal remains will snag on a branch or something on the river bank.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Police say they have run out of places to look for a Kansas City baby who disappeared from her crib more than five weeks ago and whose first birthday is Friday, but the hunt for Lisa Irwin continues behind the scenes.
The frantic search that began when Lisa was reported missing Oct. 4 has morphed into a less visible review of evidence. Investigators have received 1,271 tips and cleared 966 of them. Law enforcement officers initially combed the neighborhood, nearby wooded areas, industrial sites and landfills but those searches ended weeks ago. Police said that doesn't mean the investigation has lost its steam.
"We are not doing any physical field searching just to do it," Kansas City Police Capt. Steve Young said Thursday. "If we have another idea, thought or piece of information on where to do that, we will do it before you can blink. But we aren't going to do it just to do it. We're not going to close our eyes and start throwing darts."
The baby's parents, Deborah Bradley and Jeremy Irwin, haven't spoken publicly since allowing a national news show's television crew to follow them around while their two sons trick-or-treated on Halloween night. They also haven't been as open with investigators as police would like, further complicating the search, Young said.
"I'm not saying they're not cooperating," he said. "They have met some of our needs. What I've been talking about specifically is sitting down, separate from each other, to be interviewed by detectives. In regard to that, no, that hasn't happen since the 8th of October."
Joe Tacopina, the New York attorney representing the parents, refused to comment for this story but suggested he may issue a statement about the case on Friday.
Before then, Tacopina has said neither the family nor attorneys would be doing interviews so that they could focus on the search for Lisa.
