It took 36 hours to have a statewide alert for a child that can't crawl or walk??????

I'm glad I'm old enough to take care of myself & don't live in Florida.

CHIPLEY, Fla. -- The baby sitter of a missing infant sent a letter to Gov. Charlie Crist months before she disappeared asking him to save the child from her drug-abusing parents.

The Florida Department of Children and Families says it investigated 7-month-old Shannon Dedrick's mother and father after the August complaint, and workers have had "a lot of involvement" with the family.

LE have gone to the home of Susan Baker, the babysitter for Shannon. Thats the latest that I know of.

Tina's mother or grandmother arrived here in chipley, but we have no further info.

why is there no feed from Washington County? I found you all by accident. I gave my old scanner away, and will prob be getting a radio shack tomorrow.
