I am sure there is more to this, LC. I agree with you. If anything comes out, I will post it here. Elmira is close enough to Rochester, it will be reported here. Especially since the child was found here.
OK, thought I had new info, but it is nothing beyond the info LC posted yesterday afternoon. I cannot believe a woman would let an aquaintance take the kid!!
the mother is being charged with child endangerment.
just more unfit garbage.
