to answer question ^
i really have no reason to suspect mom, these horrible things do happen near the sea, i encounter so much sloppy reporting that i'm going to agree that is likely the problem. cynicism runs deep sadly. until there is some clue, some recovery, some reason to look elsewhere. the mother and dad have not come out to say anything, and i wonder if she isn't feeling a lot of guilt. maybe turned her back for more than a minute or two.

The heartbroken family of a missing Gloucester toddler held a vigil at Long Beach in Rockport last night, the site of an air and sea search for 2-year-old Caleigh Harrison, who vanished late Thursday morning.
“We’re holding out hope that we’re going to find Caleigh,” said the missing tot’s uncle, David Harrison Jr. “We’re going to keep going and going until we have some kind of result or closure or something.”
Dozens of friends and family gathered on the beach last night, lighting candles and saying prayers for Caleigh’s safe return.
“I don’t want to think that she’s in the water,” Harrison said. “I’m thinking she’s going to show up, that she’s safe somewhere and someone is going to bring her home.”
State police said divers are expected to comb the coastal waters again today, unable so far to pick up any sign of the Gloucester girl. A search dog yesterday sniffed along the rocky shores of Cape Hedge, where authorities believe the current could have carried her.
State police said they have not ruled out the possibility Caleigh was abducted. They plan to have a child expert interview her 4-year-old sister, who was with her when their mother, Allison Hammond, turned away for a moment to chase a ball they’d been playing with.
