14 year old Amber LeeAnne DuBois has been missing since the morning of Friday, February 13, 2009. She was last seen at approximately 7:10 am walking to Escondido High School, Escondido, CA.

The search for a missing 14 year old Amber LeeAnne DuBois was called off as it entered its sixth day.
Investigators have learned that DuBois talked to a friend on her cell phone on her way to class that morning, San Diego radio station KFMB reported.
Witnesses claimed to have spotted her in downtown Escondido Saturday and Sunday nights.
The teen’s father, Maurice DuBois, said reports of a possible sighting of his daughter Saturday were considered unreliable. He said his daughter is very structured — not the type of girl to disappear on her own.
Police have decided to wait to get better leads before resuming the search, KFMB reported.
UPDATE I: Investigator Explores New Lead … Was Amber DuBois Abducted?
A local investigator in the case of missing Escondido teenager Amber Dubois, said a woman, who looks a lot like the missing 14-year-old, told him that some men got out of a van February 2 near Escondido High School and approached her.
When the men asked her to get in the van, she said no, and they chased her, Bill Garcia said. The woman said she ran into an elementary school and escaped.
UPDATE II: Hundreds Search Rugged Terrain for Missing California Girl
If you have any information please contact the Escondido Police Department (Detective Estrada, 760–839-4758), Main # 760–839-4722.
UPDATE III: Its Been More than 2 Weeks Since Amber LeeAnne DuBois went Missing … Where is Amber?
Now police are re-evaluating an early sighting of Amber and following numerous tips and leads, including possible links to other recent cases. Investigators believe help from the public may be the best way to find answers.
“We’re looking for somebody out there that has information about something that took place, or maybe has a friend who knows something,” Escondido Police Lt. Craig Carter said. “If they don’t want to get involved, they can leave an anonymous tip.”

UPDATE V: New Tip in Missing Amber Dubois Case … Seen Walking with Boy
Meantime, Amber’s mother said police were looking into a new tip Saturday night. Amber was seen walking with a tall boy the day she went missing.
“They are thinking it was a high school student. They want to make sure. They want to talk to him and no one has come forward yet,” McGonigle said.
This weekend, her family organized another search for Amber. Volunteers have been going door-to-door, handing out fliers.

A Morgan Nick Amber Alert was issued late Tuesday (02/10/09) for 3 year old Dominick Wesley Arceneaux in Arkansas. The Ouachita County Sheriff Department are considering three possibilities: the boy fell in the lake, he wandered off and got lost in the woods, or he was kidnapped. However, authorities are leaning toward the possibility that Dominick Wesley Arceneaux was kidnapped from his Chidester home Tuesday afternoon.
Dominick Wesley Arceneaux Description:
- white with a dark complexion
- 3 feet tall
- 38 pounds
- brown eyes
- short brown hair
- The child was wearing a pair of blue jean shorts with red stitching on the pockets
For nearly six hours Wednesday, the Game and Fish dive team searched the shoreline of White Oak Lake. Arceneaux was last seen behind his family’s mobile home, which is only 50 feet away from the lake.
Sheriff David Norwood say he was playing with the family dog and his wheelbarrow around two o’clock Tuesday afternoon. He went inside to remove his shoes and five minutes later, his mother and aunt, who were inside the home, heard silence. They went outside and discovered the boy had vanished.
If anyone has any information regarding missing Dominick Wesley Arceneaux, please contact the Ouachita County Sheriff’s Department at (870) 837-2200.

UPDATE I: National Center for Missing & Exploited Children get involved in missing 3 year old Arkansas Boy case.
UPDATE II: Search Intensifies for Missing 3-Year-Old Arkansas Boy
Local, state and federal agents, along with members of the National Guard and volunteers, have joined the hunt for the boy — but without success.
Sheriff David Norwood said Friday afternoon there was still no hint of what may have happened to the toddler.
“We’re following anything we can,” Norwood said. “It would be different if we knew he’d been kidnapped, where you can take your efforts away from searching the lake, searching the woods. You could focus on finding a car or whatever other clues were available.”
The Arkansas National Guard has designed a grid search of 60 soldiers to blanket the area, Norwood said.
UPDATE III: Arkansas National Guard Search while FBI agents questioning every sex offender in a 40-mile radius
The issue may not be so much that the bar was closed at the time Dominick Arceneaux went missing, but the individuals who may have previously frequented the bar and previously saw the 3 year old boy.
Dominick’s grandmother, Martha Cortez, who drove in from Louisiana earlier this week, said she is suspicious of the bar near the family’s trailer. The Wild Horse Saloon is owned by her sister and brother-in-law. The bar gave her a bad feeling.
“I just feel like – something right there – at that barroom,” Cortez said without finishing her thought.
Jack Mitchell, who owns the bar, said earlier this week that it was closed Monday and Tuesday.
UPDATE IV: Sad Conclusion, Body found identified as missing Dominick Arceneaux
Searchers on Wednesday found the body of a 3-year-old Chidester boy missing for more than a week, only a few hundred feet down the shoreline from where his mother kept an anxious vigil on White Oak Lake.
Ouachita County Sheriff David Norwood told The Associated Press that rescuers found the body of Dominick Arceneaux, barefoot and clad in blue jean shorts, floating in the water around 11:45 a.m. Dominick’s body rested on the water only 10 feet from the shore, Norwood said.
Dominick’s body was taken to the state Crime Laboratory in Little Rock for an autopsy.

As it turns out not only was 6 month old Riley Burchness never missing, he never existed. McCormic was arrested Friday morning on charges of giving false information to police officers.
A woman named Megan McCormic told police that a baby sitter never returned her 6-month-old on Dec. 23 from his home at the 5000 block of Northwest 7th Street in Miami.
Police canceled the search for the baby, whom the mother said was named Riley Buchness.
“Every question was just another lie covering up another lie until she just couldn’t hold it anymore,” Detective Freddy Ponze of the Miami Police Department said.

Biela was arrested at the Stepping Stones Children’s Center, where officials said he was dropping off his son. Reno police took a DNA sample from the suspect and said it would take 12 hours to process.
Brianna Denison
Police spokesman Steve Frady issued a one-sentence news release announcing a news conference at 10:30 a.m. today. He would not say whether the suspect was arrested in Reno or elsewhere.
19 year old Brianna Denison disappeared January 20, 2008 and whose body was later found in a field in South Reno on February 15, 2008. At the time of the recovery police stated they had found DNA evidence at the scene of the crime that they say links the suspect to other sexual assaults near the UNR campus.
Police said they recovered DNA evidence at the scene that would link a suspect to the crime. The DNA samples also linked Denison’s killer to three other sexually related attacks on women at or near UNR from October to December 2007.
Could police have finally found a serial rapist that has been connected to at least 3 reported assualts in the Reno area?
