Aaroné Thompson Dead?
11.11.09: Aaron Thompson sentenced to 114 years. Read about it at
That night Aaroné did not return home during that bitterly cold night. I believe the temperature dropped to 12 degrees. She did not return home on Tuesday, or Wednesday. It snowed Tuesday night. Police called off the search for Aaroné today saying that they had searched every place a child that young could have gone. Aaroné is only six-years-old. When police began searching on Monday afternoon they made comments to the media indicating that the family was not being too cooperative with the search. They were reluctant to discuss what problems they were having with the family because they felt the investigation might turn into one of a criminal nature later on and they did not want to jeopardize the investigation. One thing police did mention was that they were unable to obtain a recent photo of the girl; the only photo provided to law enforcement was 1 1/2 years old. That is the photo at the top of this blog entry. Police believe the girl has been dead for at least 1 1/2 years and the request for help for her recent disappearance was fabricated. Search warrants have been served on the home and the father and the live-in girlfriend are being looked at as ‘persons of interest’ in the death of six-year-old Aaroné. Seven other children live in the home. They have been removed from their home and placed in protective custody with Child Protective Services. The family is upset with how they have been treated. They feel that they have been treated unfairly and have hired a family friend to be their spokesperson. They are considering hiring an attorney. I believe it may be a good idea to get an attorney at this point, but not for the reasons they want to hire an attorney. Other information learned during the investigation was that the girl did not attend school. Her mother lives in a woman’s shelter in Michigan. She told reporters she could not afford the cost of travel to come and look for her daughter. Perhaps they are innocent of any wrong-doing. In my last blog entry I wrote of how we have had at least one child murdered each month this year in the United States. So far, if Aaroné was murdered this month instead of a few years ago then that will be a total of two murdered children for the month of November. I wonder when will it end, the slaughtering of our children. The police are pretty confident that Aaroné Thompson was murdered in her home at least 1 1/2 years ago. They cite some interesting reasons; there were no pictures of Aaroné in the home older than 4 1/2 years and she had never been enrolled in school. It is as if she had fallen off of the face of the earth. They also received a tip from someone close to the family indicating that Aaroné most likely is deceased and has been for some time. According to law enforcement officials, interviews conducted with the children indicate they have acknowledged that Aaroné has been gone from the home for a considerable length of time. If this is true, Aaroné was not the only victim. It is a horrible thought that these children have had to keep that secret. I wonder what the effects on their psyches will be in the years to come. Thus far Aaroné’s father and his live-in girlfriend have not cooperated with the investigation. Time will tell if Aaroné was murdered or if she in fact walked out her door on Monday, November 14, 2005 never to be seen again. Much has happened over the past few years with this case. Aaron Thompson and his live-in girlfriend Shelly lost permanent custody of their children. Shelly died sometime last year from a heart condition. Aaron was indicted earlier this year and will stand trial November 3, 2008. It is interesting because the deceased former live-in girlfriend was also named in the indictment. I will be covering this trial on my other blog, The End of the Story. Loic Rogers, age 3 years, was reported missing Wednesday night by his father. Friday morning the parents, who are involved in a custody dispute including two other children, were both given lie detector tests. Lie detector tests are usually routine in missing children cases in order to rule out family members as suspects. Read the rest of this entry » Last Wednesday a little boy by the name of Davion Mutts was reported missing by his aunt and her boyfriend. She was at work and had left the boy in his care. The boy was four years-old. A poster was issued by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. I am a poster partner with the NCMEC so I receive daily emails regarding missing children. I set up a website to distribute the information. This poster comes through for little Davion. I got a bad feeling about it when the poster came in, reading the details. The boyfriend said he could not find the boy at about 9 p.m. so he called his girlfriend. She came home from work and they claim they searched the neighborhood for him and finally called the police at 1 a.m. The police used all of the manpower at their disposal to search for the little guy. Friday the boyfriend leads the police to the little guy’s body. They arrested the boyfriend, the mother of the boyfriend and the aunt. The boyfriend is charged with murder and felony child abuse. The aunt and the mother of the suspect are charged with felony child neglect. The boy had some serious burns on his hands from a few days before he was reported missing. The aunt and the suspects mother were charged because they knew about the burns but did not take the child to the doctor. Read the rest of this entry »
Aaroné Thompson was reported missing Monday afternoon from her home in Aurora, Colorado by her father Aaron Thompson. He told police that there was some sort of disagreement about discipline and she walked out of the house. I don’t recall reading information about how long she was gone before her father went to look for her, but he claims he searched for her and then called police.I am trying to understand why a parent who had murdered a child would report that child as missing 1 1/2 years after the fact. It would seem to me that a secret like that kept for so long would be kept as a secret and taken to the grave.
Again, I wonder why someone would fabricate a story of a missing child for one that they knew was murdered. The only excuse I have come up with that is logical to me is that someone was coming to visit the family. Aaroné’s birthday was approaching on November 30th. Perhaps this person, a relative was particularly interested in seeing Aaroné. There was no way of getting around her not being there unless she was reported missing, possibly a victim of a kidnapping. This would bring sympathy for the family and it would also get them off the hook as being involved in their child’s murder; at least for a while until they could dispose of the body in a remote location. Could the murderer be that ignorant to the fact that law enforcement, once finding the remains would be able to pinpoint just how long she had been deceased?MT Amber Alert – Loic Rogers
At least 200 people, many of them volunteers, came out to search for Loic because they had seen the story on the news about the boy’s disappearance. Sex Offenders in the area were interviewed by detectives and some homes and backyards were searched as well. The search was pretty extensive on Wednesday night in the freezing cold temperatures. The Sheriff indicated that it did not look good on Wednesday night after the extensive search when they failed to locate the toddler. Given the child’s age and the weather conditions it was not possible this little boy just wandered away from the home and was not found.First Entry…Sad Weekend
