6 Year Old Isabel Mercedes Celis Missing Since 4/20/12 in Tucson, AZ

These disappearances from one's homes are so suspect. It takes a truly brazen individual to actually enter one's home and take a child. I wonder when the last time anyone other than the parents saw the child? Hate to say it.

I agree Red

UPDATE I: According to AZ Sex Offender Registry there are 17 registered sex offenders within 3 miles of the missing girls home.

'We're really surprised or shocked that anything like this could happen to our family,' the girl's uncle, Justin Mastromarino, told the television station.

Police spokesman Maria Hawke said investigators were looking into all potential scenarios, including the possibility that Isabel got up and wandered out of the home she shares with her parents and two brothers or that she was kidnapped.

Investigators also were examining every door and window of the house for signs of a break-in, Ms Hawke said.

6-Year-old girl still missing; search continues

 ::snipping2::
Reporter: Tammy Vo

TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - Concern for a missing little girl mounts as authorities continue to try and find her. The search will continue as long as the child remains missing. The FBI and US Marshals are assisting the Tucson Police Department in the search; the Department of Corrections is providing canine search units. Family, friends and co-workers of the little girl are canvassing the outskirts of Tucson with fliers.

It all began early Saturday morning at a home in the 5600 block of East 12th Street, near Broadway Boulevard and Craycroft Road. Tucson police state Isabel Mercedes Celis disappeared from her bedroom, where her family discovered her missing around 8 a.m., and found what they describe as an open, pushed-up window in their daughter's bedroom.

I know, I am constantly checking on my phone app what sex offenders are around and EVERY night I go around and check each window and door to ensure that they are locked.  My kids are 13, 12, 10 and they just don't understand why I won't let them go to the park by themselves (which is only about a half a block down the street).  I guess it's because I read here and see what CAN happen.

Police call missing girl case suspicious
April 21, 2012

TUCSON - Police are calling the disappearance of a 6-year-old girl a "suspicious disappearance" or "possible abduction," according to Sgt. Maria Hawke with the Tucson Police Department.

It became less likely the girl wandered off as it got later in the day, according to Hawke.
 ::snipping2::
Detectives are investigating if anybody broke into the home.

Police searched the neighborhood all day Saturday and served multiple warrants.

Blood hounds from the Department of Corrections helped.

Several agencies were involved, including US Marshalls, the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff's Department.

Police have many leads and plan on working well into Sunday morning, according to Hawke.

Searchers scour Tucson for missing 6-year-old girl
April 22, 2012

Law officers searched Tucson areas early Sunday for a 6-year-old Arizona girl who was reported missing from her bedroom, a disappearance that police are calling suspicious and a possible kidnapping.
 ::snipping2::
After a fruitless day of searching Saturday, numerous patrol and search and rescue personnel continued the hunt Sunday morning, Hawke said.

She said that at any given time, 75 to 100 officers from a variety of agencies were taking part, including police, FBI agents and a large contingent of deputy U.S. Marshals.

Teams combed an area of Tucson Saturday around East Broadway Boulevard and Craycroft Road into the evening using street patrols, canines, detectives and a helicopter.

At one point late Saturday night, communications operator Patrick Olea said the area encompassed "pretty much the entire east side."

Also involved are Department of Corrections bloodhounds, search and rescue experts and a Pima County rapid response team.

Friends of the family also fanned out to distribute fliers with a photo of Isabel, KVOA-TV in Tucson reported.

6 Year Old Isabel Mercedes Celis Missing Since 4/20/12 in Tucson, AZ … Family Believes She was Kidnapped by a Stranger

http://scaredmonkeys.com/2012/04/21/6-year-old-isabel-mercedes-celis-missing-since-42012-in-tucson-az/

UPDATE III: Isabel’s uncle and family spokesperson Justin Mastromarino said Isabel’s bedroom window was open. He also said her family is a loving one.

Accoridng to accounts the 6 year olds bedroom window was open and the blinds were pushed to the side. Good grief America, please, I beg you ... do not keep bedroom windows open to children's rooms especially when they are on the 1st floor. With as many registered sex offenders that lived in the area and their ability to stalk and scope out a child, don't add the the problem by having an "enter" sign on your home!

Such a beautiful child.  Prayers she is found alive and soon! 

So many crimes seem to be ones of opportunity.  I agree with Red.  Please, people, lock your windows and doors for the love of Mike!

Villaseñor said police are not ruling anything out in the investigation. Police have extended the search are to 2 1/2 miles around the home.

Police, who are limiting traffic in and out of the area, have labeled the case as a "suspicious disappearance/possible abduction."

The first grader's mother and father, Rebecca and Sergio Celis, attended Sunday morning Mass as friends and neighbors joined in the search.

Here we go again....  ::MonkeyMad::  I have a very bad feeling about this case.  The circumstances surrounding her disappearance, and the time she's been missing, are just not good.  May God bless and protect her.  Hopefully she will be found safe.

FBI dogs search missing child's Tucson home
Published April 23, 2012
Associated Press
 ::snipping2::
TUCSON, Ariz. –  Investigators early Monday sent FBI dogs trained for urban searches into the Tucson home where a 6-year-old girl disappeared as teams of law officers worked to determine if she was abducted.

The dogs arrived from the FBI's Virginia headquarters late Sunday and began searching at the home around midnight, said police Sgt. Marco Borboa.
 
"We have deployed the dogs and they're working at the residence," he said Monday.
 
Officers kept the whole neighborhood block where Isabel lives cordoned off for a second day Sunday.
  ::snipping2::
More than 150 law enforcement officers were involved in the effort, which included a fourth search of a three-mile radius around the home in temperatures that reached the high-90s, police Lt. Fabian Pacheco said at a Sunday evening news conference

Family friend Mary Littlehorn said she heard from others close to the family that a window screen in the girl's bedroom had been knocked down.
Littlehorn, who joined other family friends at a police command post, said authorities separated the two parents for hours Saturday as they questioned them. She said it was difficult for them knowing their little girl was out there somewhere.
 
"She hasn't been allowed to help look for her daughter," Littlehorn said of Becky Celis.

She said Becky Celis is a registered nurse in the pediatrics unit and Sergio Celis is a dental hygienist. There's no way anyone in the family is involved in the disappearance, she said.
 
"We all feel this is somebody who's been watching 'Isa' for some amount of time to know where her bedroom is," Littlehorn said.

Sadly, this isn't surprising.

Suspicion over 'entry point’ in Tucson girl search


Most cases involving parents don't include those so educated.  I hope that doesn't sound like bias or profiling.  I'm just thinking of Lisa Irvin, Zahara Baker, Caylee Anthony, Shaniya Davis, etc...  One would think that if there was abuse and a medical emergency, these two would know what to do to help a child. 

I'm not sure what to think about this case.   :smt102

Missing Tucson Girl Isabel Celis : Landfill Searched
By Collen Curry
April 23, 2012

Tucson cops searched a landfill without success today after an FBI search dog came upon a "hit" in the home of missing 6-year-old girl Isabel Mercedes Celis.

Having police turn to a landfill for evidence of the girl was a grim turn in the investigation.

Searchers combed through garbage at the landfill and continued canvassing a 3-mile area around the girl's home to try and solve what they say has become a likely abduction case.

"We have information we obtained from the dogs that has necessitated more follow-up investigation," Tucson Police Chief Roberto Villasenor said today.

Police have evacuated the Celis family from their home today following the dog search, which involved one cadaver dog and one scent-following dog, Villasenor said. They are treating the house as a crime scene.

Search For Missing Tucson Girl Isabel Celis Checks Nearby Homes
By Colleen Curry
April 23, 2012

Tucson police searched the homes of a number of residences today close to where 6-year-old Isabel Mercedes Celis has disappeared, including one home on the same street as the girl 's house.

The search for the missing girl entered day three today with investigators combing a nearby landfill, canvassing the neighborhood interviewing residents, and examining evidence that FBI search dogs "hit" in the Celis family home.
 ::snipping2::
Villasenor would not say which residences were searched today, after police obtained warrants for the case, but did acknowledge that more than 15 registered sex offenders live within a three mile radius of the family's home, including at least one who lives in the immediate vicinity.

Detectives have interviewed all of the offenders, he said.

The search for Celis intensified after two FBI search dogs hit upon something in the Celis family home overnight. Villasenor noted that there was a cadavaer dog and a scent dog used in the search.
"We have information we obtained from the dogs that has necessitated more follow-up investigation," Tucson Police Chief Roberto Villasenor said today.

Police evacuated the Celis family from their home today following the dog search, which involved one cadaver dog and one scent-following dog, Villasenor said. They are treating the house as a crime scene.

Investigators also continued to search a nearby landfill today where garbage was taken after being picked up at the Celis's home on Saturday, Villasenor said. Having police turn to a landfill for evidence of the girl was a grim turn in the investigation.

Missing Tucson Girl Isabel Celis' Family Will 'Never Give Up Finding Her'


This is the first time I've seen this description.

http://blinkoncrime.com/category/isabel-celis/sergio-celis/

Blink's reporting.  Interesting comments.

KittyMom, you asked a very good question as well.  I would really like to know the families movements all day Friday.

This type of abduction is very rare, and the outer windows are casement sliders, which in theory are not large enough to be egress in the first place. 

A few Notes below which are bothering me:




These windows are the only exposed outer windows in the home not protected by fencing and accessible to the alley, and the adjacent parking lot.  It appears that they are also the only windows not protected by fencing along the alley corridor in total.

They are at LEAST 5' up from ground level if the fence to the immediate right is at least 4', which is fairly standard.  I am presuming these are horizontal sliding windows and not hinged casements.

If they are hinged casements,  I would say flat out that window was not used to remove this child without someone assisting on both sides and even then  I would be highly suspect.


These windows would lock via the center moving sash and would use one outer screen for both panes of glass.

If someone knew what they were doing, it could be removed fairly easily and quietly, which is what I have been told happened as opposed to it being cut.  If they were locked from the inside,  there is no way there would not be obvious signs of forced entry to the exterior.

To my knowledge, there was not.

You can visibly see the horizontal blinds in the image, so again, they are not accessible to pull up from the outside-  someone coming in from the exterior would need to deal with them,  depending upon what they are made of could be a noise factor.

These windows appear to be standard size for the time the home was built, so they are quite small in terms of an adult, let alone an adult and a child getting in and out of them.

I have wood blinds on my first floor and they are LOUD and heavy when adjusting them.

With 2 older brothers, both parents and a dog in the home,  I am having a hard time believing someone is getting in and out of that window with a "sleeping" child.  There are cinder block and stones below the alleged access point which would have resulted in footprints, etc. 

This person, if acting alone would have to be at least 5'9" -6'tall to clear that opening without any sort of step stool and absolutely need to be thin in build.

If I were a betting person,  and one of the reasons why I want to know if the family was away earlier,  it is more plausible to me that someone broke into the home via that window, waited inside the home and left via another exit,  or that someone accessed the home by some other means and had help removing the child via the window and then exited themselves.

Horrific scenario to my knowledge has not been ruled out- Young Isa was victimized in her room and removed unconscious or worse.  (this is even rarer, but not unheard of if the unsub is younger and does not live alone or have access to an alternative location).  I do not believe this scenario personally, however.


Last scenario- the scene was staged for some reason by some individual.

The concrete wall which abutts the house does provide an area for concealment, but I counted 6 parking lot lights within a 50 yard radius across the street which are certainly going to provide some lighting to that alley.

It is my understanding the home is being released to the family but Isa's room and some other areas remain secured.


Does anyone know if the home has a finished basement?

Sorry, not sure why this image did not post, trying again.

Dogs on duty when Tucson child vanished


TUCSON, April 24 (UPI) -- A cadre of watchdogs was present in the home of an Arizona girl the night she disappeared but it was unclear Tuesday if they ever raised the alarm, police said

Family of missing Isabel Mercedes Celis allowed to return home


TUCSON, Ariz. - The family of a 6-year-old girl who disappeared from her bedroom was given the go-ahead to return to their Tucson home after authorities completed a search of the house.


Police spokesman Sgt. Marco Borboa says Isabel Mercedes Celis' family was told Tuesday that they could return to the house. It's unknown whether they had returned.

I did not realize that the window to her room were that small and that high off the ground! 

I just got off a call with a source that said they have not been able to confirm Isabel attended school Friday,  has anyone seen any confirmations of that?

Same question was posed this morning and the PIO did not know.  He was very sketchy about the "who was last seen" with Isabel.

Correct.  I am not going to name any names, but there is an RSO I am gravely concerned about, and his record includes kidnapping, theft of a vehicle, possession of burglary tools, improper window tint, rape, and he is a high risk offender  dating as far back as 1997.

He is 3 houses and 200 feet down from the Celis family.  His home was searched yesterday morning.

Cops search landfill for missing Arizona girl

Police looking for evidence in the weekend disappearance of six-year-old Isabel Celis searched a landfill near her Tucson, Arizona, home.

According to the Arizona Daily Star, investigators said garbage was picked up in the neighborhood before Isabel was reported missing on Saturday morning and they have secured the area of the Los Reales Landfill, where that trash would have been dumped. Tucson Police Chief Roberto Villasenor called the search “normal protocol.”

Day 4: FBI profilers to help find missing Tucson girl


12:30 — FBI profilers will be in Tucson this afternoon to begin working on the case of a missing Tucson girl, police said.

The behavior analysts who in part help develop a profile of possible suspects in crimes, might “tell us what we’re looking for,” Chief Roberto Villaseñor, told reporters at a news briefing today.

Villaseñor confirmed that the Celis family — parents Sergio and Becky Celis, as well as their two sons — were at home Friday, the last time Isabel was seen before she was reported missing Saturday morning. He said he did not believe anyone else was at the home Friday night.

The next police news conference is set for 4 p.m. today.

Police: Search phase winding down; now investigating some 260 leads

TUCSON - Police are winding down search operations and ramping up the investigation phase into the disappearance of 6-year-old Isabel Celis.

At a 4 p.m. news conference, Tucson Police Chief Roberto Villasenor said they have completed searching the Los Reales landfill and will be shutting down the operation there.

By tonight, police will significantly reduce staff searching the area around the east side neighborhood where Isabel was last seen.

"We've hit every area we can find," Chief Villasenor said, noting their search teams have searched some areas three or four times.

Tucson police winding down search for missing girl

TUCSON, Ariz. — Tucson police are scaling back their search for a 6-year-old girl who has been missing since Saturday

Police Chief Roberto Villasenor said Tuesday that law enforcement expect to wrap up their intensive search for Isabel Mercedes Celis by morning.

Villasenor says more than 20 officers will work throughout the night in the neighborhood surrounding the girl's home.

That's a sharp reduction from the 150 officers from various agencies who first took part in the search.

I don't understand why it is so difficult to determine if this child attended school on Friday.  Simple enough to question a teacher and bus driver. 

I'm finding it hard to believe that someone entered that home via the window.  It sounds like another Trenton Duckett case.  Did the parents dispose of garbage before reporting the child missing?  But, as always, I go back to little Jessica Lunsford.  Couey was able to get in and out of her home without waking anyone (including the dog).  So, are any of Isa's favorite dolls or animals gone?  What about clothes or shoes? 

Too many unanswered questions.

Clues for Missing Tucson Girl Isabel Celis Sought in Surveillance Video

The answer to how 6-year-old Isabel Celis disappeared from her Tucson home last Saturday may be found in surveillance videos from neighboring houses and stores, police said today.

One camera is attached to a home just 75 yards away and points directly at the Celis family's house, while others are attached to nearby businesses. Police hope they could yield clues to the girl's overnight disappearance.

Celis was reported missing by her father around 8 a.m. Saturday after her mother left for work and her father went to wake her up. The child was not in her room, and a bedroom window was opened with the screen removed, police said.

The little girl was last seen around 11 p.m. Friday, when she was put to bed, he said.

Today, police will extend their search for the girl to drainage and water systems in the nearby area, Tucson police chief Roberto Villasenor said at a press conference this morning.

Clues for Missing Tucson Girl Isabel Celis Sought in Surveillance Video


I'd love to know just how old this child is.

7:30 a.m. — Tucson police Chief Roberto Villaseñor announced at a press briefing this morning that a scaled down search of missing 6-year-old girl Isabel Celis will focus mostly on areas such as washes and drainage areas.

“It means that we’re not gonna take any chance in overlooking anything,” he said.

Authorities completed another search warrant on the Celis home in the 5600 block of East 12th Street about 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, allowing behavioral analysts from the FBI to take a look at the home, Villaseñor said.

“I’m hoping they saw things differently,” he said.

Villaseñor also added that he doesn’t not believe Isabel walked away from her home. Police don’t believe she has been taken out of state.

So what led them to the landfill?

We are just hearing that police have removed what appears to be folded fabric or a carpet & some pillows from the family’s car outside the missing 6-yr-old girl’s home. The car, seen parked outside the home, obviously has drawn the attention of investigators, since we are getting in video showing crime scene techs with gloves on removing items. What did they find inside that car? Is it linked to missing 6-yr-old Isabel Celis? And police “refresh” their search warrant on the family home: what do they expect to find inside? Taking your on-air questions right now:

Just passing this along...it came across my FB.

I hope that LE has separated the brothers and questioned them away from their parents.

 ::MonkeyCool::  Interesting.

Another presser at noon.

The family dogs?  The height of the bedroom window?   No school attendance confirmation?  The canine hits?  The parents' silence?  The last non-family sighting?
 
Could it be that the demise of little Isabel happened through the mpulsive action of a family member prior to the dawning of "Friday" morning ... over 24 hours prior to the missing person's report.  A fabrication followed ... a fabrication intended to protect a loved one from legal consequences ... a fabrication that would suggest an abduction.

What has been revealed by others regarding the positive dynamics of the Celis family causes me to speculate that the remains of Isabel WILL NOT be located in a landfill ... will not be located in a body of water.

IMO

My theory implies that little Isabel's remains would not have been disposed of  disrespectfully.  Nevertheless ... if the following words of KNST reporter Paul Birmingham reflects the truth ... there was a Saturday garbage pickup which may have motivated the landfill search for evidence.

Landfill Search for Missing 6-Year-Old
Aired April 24, 2012 - 20:00   ET

<snipped>

PAUL BIRMINGHAM, KNST (via telephone): This is a landfill about seven miles away. What investigators are hoping for is any piece of evidence at that landfill where trash was taken after Isabel had been reporting missing.

There was a Saturday pickup. They`re hoping by going through that landfill, they may find something that they could have missed possibly at the scene of the home or nearby. So they`ve been combing through. They continue to do so -- a very hot, nasty, just terrible day to do it, nearly 100 degree temperatures. So it`s been a long search of that landfill today, and it`s continuing right now.

<snipped>

http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1204/24/ng.01.html

He hopes they saw what differently?  I think Villasenor believes Isabel might have died in that home and it was staged to look like a kidnapping.  I do hope the camera trained on the home leads to something or someone!  I did see a day ago that the reddish, older car was being gone over by LE and they took out what looked like a pillow and put into a bag and they were looking real hard!

labubske

In the process of elimination ... in the pursuit of truth ... the forensic searching of the homes/properties/vehicles of those with a close relationship to this little girl should be a given.  Have the parents/grandparents submitted to polygraph and passed in regards to involvement and/or knowledge?  Were Isabel's older brothers questioned by investigators?

I contend that the words of Tucson police Chief Roberto Villaseñor speak volumes in regards to where the investigation is leading.

Celis family to speak at 2 p.m. today

TUCSON - The Celis family will be making a statement to the media at 2 p.m. today.

Tucson Police confirmed the family will be speaking at the Command Post set up near the east side neighborhood where 6-year-old Isabel Celis disappeared from last Friday night.

TPD confirms that the family will not be taking questions, but will be speaking briefly to the media.

http://www.kvoa.com/news/celis-family-to-speak-at-2-p-m-today/

Live stream for the 2pm statement

http://www.kvoa.com/livestream/

I guarantee that the statement was prompted by suggestion from the FBI BAU.  It is standard protocol.  Y'all remember the infamous only joint Horman press conference?

This is largely for observation and/or lead generating purposes.

Janet- you are correct that everyone has been reporting there was a Saturday trash pickup because I heard the chief say that was well, however, there was not.

If something left that area or residence and was transported to the landfill it was done by an individual, not the trash service.

I have the feeling this case is going to come to conclusion sooner than later.

Here is the raw video for anyone that missed it:

http://www.kvoa.com/videos/raw-celis-parents-plea-for-daughter-s-return/

The first statement of the father's tells me everything I need to know.

"We are cooperating fully in the investigation".

I do not know what happened in that home, but I do know that those parents do not believe their daughter was yanked out of a 13" window over 5' off the ground for some sort of ransom, and neither does LE.

I will be really surprised if the father or mother have anything to do with this child's disappearance. 

IMO, Mom looked sincere in the presser but Dad.......I hate to say this, not so much.  ::MonkeyCool::He seemed a little hinky to me but that could be nothing. Did you have any gut feelings about the parents when they spoke out?

Who could possibly hurt this adorable baby? She is exquisite. Please God bring this baby home  ::MonkeyAngel::

Parents of missing Arizona girl tearfully plead for her return

TUCSON, Arizona (Reuters) - The anguished parents of a missing 6-year-old Arizona girl who authorities say may have been snatched from her bed made a tearful public appeal on Wednesday for her safe return, pleading to presumed abductors to "tell us what you want."
 
Wearing T-shirts bearing their daughter's picture, Sergio and Becky Celis appeared before reporters for the first time since the Tucson girl was reported missing on Saturday, speaking briefly in a parking lot in 90-degree heat.
 
In English, then in Spanish, the mother thanked well-wishers for their prayers and pleaded for her daughter, Isabel Mercedes Celis, to be set free. Her father, also speaking in English and Spanish, offered to meet any demands.
 
"Please, please, to the person or people who took Isabel, tell us what your demands. Tell us what you want. We will do anything," he said, his voice quivering with emotion. "Isabel, we will never give up. We will never stop looking for you."
 
After reading the statements, the parents hugged volunteers who have helped search surrounding areas since Saturday, then quickly walked away toward a motor home serving as a police command center. They took no questions from the media.
 
The parents have said Isabel, who has two older brothers, was last seen when she was put to bed on Friday night. The family awoke Saturday morning to find the hazel-eyed girl's bed empty, they told police.
 
Authorities say a window to the girl's ground-floor room was open, and a screen was missing.
 
Police have said they are treating the girl's disappearance as a "possible abduction" but have yet to rule anyone in or out as a possible suspect.
 
The search widened on Tuesday to washes surrounding the middle-class urban neighborhood. Police investigators have been paired with FBI agents to knock on every door within a 3-mile radius of the family's home, and all local trash companies have been contacted, said Tucson police Chief Roberto Villasenor.
 
The family was given the go-ahead to return to the modest single-story house on Wednesday morning, after FBI behavior analysts had inspected the home. The entire block remained cordoned off with police tape, and squad cars were posted at each end. Villasenor reiterated that the search continues, despite declining likelihood of finding the girl safe.
 
"We don't think about that," he said. "All we think about is bringing her back safely."  ::snipping2::

Is surveillance video key to solving missing girl investigation?


 ::MonkeyCool::  LE knows who to look at.

There has been video since Saturday morning 75 yards from the Celis house.  There were cars, there were people, there was action.

Do we really think LE is warranting a property 3 times in 24 hours,  and the BAU is going to form a profile without speaking to the family whatsoever?

The last people to see the missing child, and the people that knew her better than anyone to provide the strongest input to the victimology assessment?

Again, I dunno what happened at 5602,  but I do know that LE is not buying it as sold.

We can deduce this-  footage did not yield Isabel being removed from the home that is covered by cameras.  If it had, it would have resulted in an amber alert.

Imo- they either know who has this child, or they know where she is and what happened to her.

Well, now...that doesn't sound good.

Day 5 ends with shocking account from next door neighbor

"I remember hearing male voices right outside my window. But it was light outside so I just kept sleeping, I didn't think much of it."

At the day's final press conference, 9OYS asked TPD  about Alicia's recollection of events from that morning.
 
"Of course we're looking at it," Villasenor said. "But it's just one piece of a 500 piece puzzle."
 
For the fifth day in a row, police aren't releasing details of what those other puzzle pieces may look like. The search continues in the sky, in washes and door to door. The number of officers out actively searching has decreased, so any information is becoming more critical by the hour.
 
"My opinion doesn't matter, but what I would get from it is I didn't hear screaming, I would think someone close to the family did this or she's just a really deep sleeper," said Stardevant.

This woman says males 'voices' outside the window.  We've only got one man in that home.  So who else was there?  I'll bet LE is checking cell records for all family members.

I'd like to hear from Isa's teachers.  Was she a strong-willed child?  She's the baby and only girl.  I'd be surprised if she weren't.

Isabel lived at 5602 12th street.  There is also a Celis family living at 5701 12th street.  Wonder if that residence has been searched as well?

http://nancygrace.blogs.cnn.com/2012/04/25/little-league-team-holds-vigil-for-missing-girl/?hpt=ng_bn2

Hanna said Isabel and her family were at the ballpark watching a game last Friday night and Sergio stayed afterward to help clean up, which may be why Isabel went to sleep so late.

So, she was seen on Friday night by someone outside of the family.

The non running red car at the home bothers me...I thought I heard on NG ? that pillow and piece of carpet taken out of the car along with other items..how long had those items been in the car? How long has the unrunning car been sitting there etc?

I don't think that the parents had anything to do with this. I do think that it was a male relative or acquaintance who took Isabel...wonder if he did something with her in the red car?

I don't  think that this is going to end well.
Prayers to her and her family. So sad for all of them

I tend to agree with this.  I didn't get any hinkiness from the mom or dad.  I just don't feel in my gut like they are responsible.  I hope she is found, safe, soon. 

Could it be that the timeline that Alicia Stardevant recalls is out?  Could it be that the voices and barking were related to the arrival of the first responders on the scene?

Considering the 911 call was placed at 8:15 AM ... there is no way that LE was knocking on Alicia's door at 8:00 AM.

Neighbor heard male voices near Celis home morning of disappearance
Posted: Apr 25, 2012 11:17 PM PDT
Updated: Apr 26, 2012 6:40 AM PDT

TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) - A woman who lives next door to the Celis family says she heard male voices and barking dogs outside her home early Saturday morning, the day 6-year-old Isabel Celis was reported missing.

Alicia Stardevant says it was around 6:30 a.m. when she was awakened by her dogs and heard the voices.  A wall separates Stardevant's home from Isabel's bedroom window.  Stardevant says the voices sounded like they were coming from her side of the wall, not the Celis home.

"My dogs were going crazy," Stardevant said. "Their dogs were going nuts, and I remember briefly waking up and hearing male voices outside my bedroom window. But it was light outside.  I didn't really think anything of it.  Then I went back to sleep.  Then at eight o'clock I got a  knock on the door saying she was missing."

Stardevant says she was sleepy, so she does not recall what the voices were saying.  She says the men were not whispering.

"I don't think that they were police," she said. "I mean I wasn't really paying attention, you know.  I was really tired, but I don't think it was."

Stardevant says since the incident, police have interviewed her several times.

maybe the dogs barking and the men talking that the neighbors heard, were the father and/or a different family member trying to stage the scene outside the window where she was allegedly taken from

not to quote myself, but if the neighbor heard the dogs barking around 6 30 am wouldn't the mom still have been home getting ready for work and heard all of this commotion?

Could it be that the family has knowledge but ... protecting a loved one from legal consequences is where it is at with the furthering of a stranger abduction?

“You don’t think anything like that would actually really happen to you. And all of sudden, you wake up one morning and you’re in that scenario. Everything goes through your mind, you’re angry, you’re upset, you’re frustrated, you’re confused,” said Isabel’s uncle and family spokesperson Justin Mastromarino.

Mastromarino said her family is a loving one.

“They’re very upset right now, mother is beside herself we’re just trying to let police do their thing and get as much info as possible,” said Mastromarino.

Mastromarino described his niece as “just a sweet little girl.”

“All the ambition in the world. She could do whatever she wanted. Didn’t really like strangers or anything like that so very close knitted and just very wise,” said Mastromarino.

Good images CW


So now we have the issue of surveillance capturing people, vehicles and activity which was focused on the windows and side of the home I posted, and a neighbor hearing multiple male voices at 6:30am on the other side of the home at the window where Isa never slept except that Friday night, allegedly.  Everyone's dogs barking.  If the neighbor is hearing both sets of dogs, wouldn't that mean the dogs in the Celis home would have had to have been outside?

There are only 2 fence/wall gates in the Celis property.  One is located near a streetlight and faces the neighbors elipse driveway.  The other next to the garage, again, where the garage and then back windows facing the street are located.

Becky's boss (admin) as I recall stated she was in VERY EARLY for her shift, so if multiple male voices and dogs barking is occurring at 6:30, how does the Dad going to wake her at 8am make sense?

Was her nursing shift the standard 7-3 or a 12 of 7-7?  Your are usually required to be to a nursing job 30 mins early to report off.  All nurses getting ready to start their shift take report from the nurses on the previous shift and get patient's assigned to them.  Anyone know what time she says she went to work or arrived there?

8 am update from this morning.  Some good reporter questions.

Specifically,  one asked to note that on the NCMEC Isa's case is classified as a non-family abduction.

He would not confirm that, and said they would speak to the Team Adam consultant to "address it".

He did not respond to the part about whether or not the family had been cleared, will not classify this as a non-family abduction.

Not an allegation, but a simple observation which may have no bearing on who is responsible for what happened to this sweetie Isa,  but the choice of phrase, which was impromptu by Mr. Celis has been bugging me like crazy.

It was before I knew he was an actor and tenor.  The way he approached the platform,  perused the crowd, delivered the line please tell us your demands,  tell us what you want.

In La Traviata,  an opera Mr. Celis sang in as recently as 2008 for sure:

Don't tell me your terrible demand!

Interestingly, while I have never seen a Loss of Eden credit for Mr. Celis, he does have a colleague who played Bruno Hauptmann in Loss of Eden.

It was a commissioned opera in St. Louis in 2002 based on the book with the same name about the kidnapping of Charles Lindbergh, Jr .

As we all know Charles was kidnapped for ransom and removed from the home via his bedroom window.

Is surveillance video key to solving missing girl investigation?
Posted: Apr 25, 2012 7:40 PM
Updated: Apr 25, 2012 7:40 PM

TUCSON - Police are investigating hundreds of leads regarding the disppearance of Isabel Celis, but one business in the area may have a big key to help solve the puzzle.

Rick Moore of Moore Security Solutions has surveillance cameras placed right outside his company--a company that is just feet away from Isabel Celis' family home.

Rick Moore said his cameras were on the watch the night Isabel disappeared.

"And the cameras that we have located in the back were looking where a lot of things were happening," said Moore.

Moore said he believes these cameras provide more information to police than any other nearby camera because of their location.

"In terms of maybe license plate numbers, cars going by - these cameras also have infrared technology so you can see at nighttime and that will help too, since the abduction occurred between 11 and 8 o'clock," said Moore.

Moore said on Saturday, his general manager spent about five hours with police, showing them surveillance video of the area, and on Monday, they were back again to review video and get a copy of activity from 10 p.m. Friday night to 9 a.m. Saturday morning.

"There was activity going on," he said. "There were vehicles...there were people wandering around. There were things that we saw and we did get recorded so that information we did release to the police."

http://www.kvoa.com/news/is-surveillance-video-key-to-solving-missing-girl-investigation-/

Thank you kindly Janet,  back at ya.

I posted a link ( thanks MuffyBee!) earlier to Isa's profile on NCMEC,  as it was referenced in the press conf to say "non-family abduction".

I just hit refresh and it has been changed to "missing and endangered".  

When this much time has gone by, and there are witnesses and surveillance-

Nobody will say WHO put Isa to bed except "the family".

LE makes NCMEC change the case classification from non-family abduction to missing and endangered and will not discuss being able to rule out the family.

Isa was not wearing pj's, she was reportedly wearing what she was last seen in at the baseball game.

The family says we don't want to be on camera to take away focus, and LE says them being on camera is helpful to generate leads.

Father was at ballpark later than the rest of the family to clean up and Isa was with him.


I could go on-  none of any of this is logical.

There is no logical behavior patterns in any of the information we have been given if this family truly believes Isa was abducted by a stranger from the home.

It is one thing to be unsure of a piece of information here or there,  but in reality, the only FACT we have is a 911 call, it's timestamp, and parents that have said we want you not to focus on us, but our daughter but we refuse to answer any questions to help with that effort.  

As an example- when Mr. Celis told the person or persons responsible for taking Isa to tell them their demands,  how was he expecting that call to come in exactly? From a home they will not return to?

Does that make any sense to anyone?  Does he KNOW that the "kidnapper" has their cell phones, etc?  

The Patz family refused to move for 33 years so far in the even Etan was alive and could return to his home.

If BAU thought that this was an abduction for ransom,  they would have coached the Celis's very precisely as to their statement/appearance, period.

I cannot think of a single case where the BAU/FBI did not WISH to meet with the parents of a missing child.

Conversely, I can think of many where the parent/caregiver/person hiding something refused or refused through an attorney.

If Jose Baez shows up in Tucson so help me Jesus.

Does the couple strike me as parents that would intentionally harm their child? No, they are low risk for that for everything we  know so far.

So, why are their actions in contradiction to their own stated theory, that of LE, and unwilling to do anything to change it to find Isa?

  

Where does the reality end and the performance begin? ::CowboySmiley::

NANCY GRACE, HOST:  In the last hours, cops remove fabric and pillows from a red hatchback parked in the driveway, as crime scene tape goes back up at the missing girl`s home. And tonight, we learn Isabel usually sleeps with her two older brothers, but not the night she disappears. Why?

<snipped>

http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1204/25/ng.01.html

Usually sleeps with her older brothers...isn't one of them 14 yrs old? A little past the age of wanting to sleep with siblings? In the same bed or just in the same room, which would be more ok...she might be scared to sleep in her own room alone at 6 yrs old...not making an issue of the sleeping arrangements except that a  14 yr old usually like their privacy in their own room don't they? and the one night that she is in her own room, this happens..
Mind you, I don't think that the parents did this, a relative or close aquaintince probably..however, nothing surprises me anymore in these cases.

Nancy Grace alleged that her sources claim that although it was out of the usual ... Isabel slept in her own room ... not her brothers' room ... on the night she was allegedly kidnapped.  Coincidence?  I don't think so.

Could it be ... along with the open window ... the removed screen ... a stage was being set to protect a loved one from illegal wrongdoing that result in Isabel's demise?

I was just watching HLN Vinnie Politan.

I learned that the neighbour was waken at approximately 6:30 am by the barking of the Celis family dogs as well as her dogs.  I learned that Alicia Stardevant heard voices above the sound of barking dogs through a closed window. I learned that the sun had risen 5:30 AM on the morning of April 21st.  I learned that a six foot wall with no entry for an intruder encompassed the entire property.  I learned that there was no sounds of a protesting child heard.  I was reminded that Becky would be in the process of getting ready for work.

Maybe something was happening that was connected to the disappearing of Isabel Celis at 6:30 AM on the morning of April 21st but ... obviously it was not a stranger child abduction that was in progress.

Again ... could it be that Alicia has the timing wrong and ... all the commotion was about the arrival of the first responders to the 911 call?  Could she have turned over ... went back to sleep and ... the next thing she knew LE was knocking on her door?

Tucson police checking bodies of water for clues to missing girl


6 p.m. Update — Tucson police officers have begun checking bodies of water near the neighborhood of missing first-grader Isabel Celis, said police Chief Roberto Villaseñor.

He said officers are primarily checking the water areas for any signs that may be connected to Isabel’s disappearance.

Officers are not going into the water and no dive teams have been called in, he said. The searching now is just visual.

Officers have looked around the lake at Charles Ford/Lakeside Park, east of Pantano Road and south of East Golf Links Road, and several water retention basins in the area, he said.

Portrait of a cheerful little girl: Isa Celis brightened lives of friends and family
Friends of the family: She was an athletic girly girl

CREATED 5:35 PM

Reporter: Claire Doan

TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) – While southern Arizona works to bring Isabel home, many of us actually know very little about this girl. Who is Isabel Celis?

It has been 6 days since Isabel vanished from this home on the east side, and most of what we know about her is from fliers: She’s 6-year-old, 44 pounds, 4’4” and has brown hair and hazel eyes.

But family and friends remember “Isa” as a cheerful, smart first-grader.

“She’s a sweet little girl. She’s a girly girl who loves pink and purple,” said Melissa Hodges, a volunteer and a friend of Rebecca Celis, Isabel’s mother.

Hodges said Isabel loves having her hair braided, wearing dresses, wearing makeup and being pampered.

“She likes getting her nails done, doing Spa Day with her grandma,” said Julie Degroat, another family friend.

Joe Vega, a close family friend and baseball coach, said Isa is also very athletic.

I noticed that running headline on the video but I didn't pay it any attention as the neighbor never mentioned that in her interview.  I assumed that NG's folks had put a runner on there from another case.  I've seen those types of errors before.

If the neighbor did talk about that NG must be saving it for another night.

10 things to do in Arizona this weekend
 

I want to believe them but I just don't.

Seemed phony baloney.

Well, I really don't know what to think in this case.  In the video of the parents addressing the viewers...I feel that mom was sincere...dad is hard to say because he is an actor (am I correct, I think I read that) so I wouldn't even try and read him.  Maybe the words they spoke were scripted?  Maybe LE wanted them to say certain things.  I don't know...it's hard to believe that no one heard anything...but, it is a large home with solid walls.  When my one dog barks...I hear her...even if I have taken Tylenol PM and she is in the farthest room from me.  I think it is likely that she slept in her own room because they got in so late.  Maybe she fell asleep playing in there since she did have her clothes on from earlier.  Anyhow, my daughter keeps talking to me so I can't concentrate...ha.

Isabele may have fallen asleep  in the car on the way back from the baseball game so dad carried her in and put her in her own room rather than where she normally sleeps? Especially if the brothers were still up....dunno...

Yep, that makes sense.

Very.

There are latent lifts on the bottom of that window and the processing label is still on it from forensics.

When I was watching the neighbor on HLN with Vinnie Politan yest she did state something about the voices not sounding like they were arguing but friendly enough that Isa wouldn't be afraid of the people talking and might go with them without fearing them.  That is not verbatim but what I would like to know is if she also heard Isa or a least a female voice talking at that time?

Did anyone see her come home that night is the question other than the Dad?  If everyone was asleep when he came in (with or without? her)there is no telling what happened or if he was followed or if she was really with him!  Dad's not looking real good to me and that may be why Mom is a little off.  She may be playing along to keep her suspected enemy close.

The debate could go back and forth why at 6:30 AM those within the Celis home would not have heard three frantic barking dogs as well as the voices that woke Alicia.

The issue is why would anyone carry through with the act of kidnapping a little girl after the rising of the sun while three residence dogs were going "crazy" as well as knowing the entire family was inside that home?  Why would anybody while in the process of a kidnapping be talking loud enough that a next door neighbour through a closed window could make out voices over the barking dogs.

It doesn't make sense unless ... Alicia had the time wrong and what she was hearing was the commotion surrounding the arrival of the first responders or ... a staging/cover up was in progress after something bad happened following the baseball game..

Rick Moore, thank you for being with us.

RICK MOORE, BUSINESS HAS SURVEILLANCE POINTED TOWARD GIRL`S HOME: Thank you, Nancy.

GRACE: Rick, how is it, may I ask, that you have surveillance cameras that are pointing toward the family home?

MOORE: Well, that is quite a coincidence. But what happens is I have a showroom right here in the back alley about 30 yards from the front door of the Celis residence. So because our employees park their vehicles here and of course we want to make sure that nobody breaks into our showroom and our security store, we have cameras in the back and they happened to be pointing right at the alley and right at the Celis family resident street.

<snipped>

http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1204/26/ng.01.html

They really have to know who took her/or at least who didn't take her with this footage.  It sounds like quality cameras.  Amazing that these just happen to be pointed at the house.  Maybe they are trying to gather further evidence...maybe this is why they have had so many search warrants for the home.

Janet, on the NG video link Alicia says she checked her cell phone when she heard the voices and dogs barking and it said 6:28 AM.  I found her to be extremely credible and objective.

I am not able to come up with any theory where I can even fathom being untruthful with LE regardless of the circumstances if one felt their child was abducted.

Even if it was as simple as "O I thought she went home with you" and the other parent thought she went home with them, and the child ended up disappearing from the park-  loving and concerned parents are not going to hide that information as it would be critical to finding her-

They are not going to stage some ruse.

Blink

I also consider Alicia a very credible witness.  However ... she was wrong about the time LE and Isabel's uncle knock on her door.  Even last night on NG she stuck to her story that the time was 8:00 AM.  The 911 call by the family did not happen until 8:15 AM.  I would assume that the time had to have been at least 8:30 AM.

I am just attempting to make sense of all the commotion ... barking dogs ... voices.  A child kidnapper operates silently in an environment that would insure a parent/sibling would not intervene.

Again ... I believe IF Alicia's timing was correct ... a staging/cover up was in progress ... not a kidnapping.  If her timing is off ... the commotion she heard may have been the arrival of the first responders.  I could be wrong.

Janet

I hope so.  Could it be that neither parent took a polygraph?

GRACE: I want to go back to neighbor Cynthia Mort from Tucson joining us. She lives right there in the neighborhood with the Celis family. This home seems to be very much fortified. It looks to be a fence on all perimeters, Ms. Mort. Am I seeing the photos correctly?

MORT: Yes, there is. There`s a fence all the way around. In fact, it`s a patio wall. So there`s a wall all the way around that house.

GRACE: Yes, I`m seeing a large, it looks like stucco wall. It looks to be from here over five feet tall. And then on one side, I would say the back left side, there is a wooden wall about the same height. It`s solid. You can`t see through it. And I don`t see a gate. So whoever did this would have to scale this wall and get into the home.

http://edition.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1204/23/ng.01.html

I agree with you Janet.  It seems highly unlikely that someone would risk being caught, knowing that there is a high fence all the way around...daylight (if that's when it happened), parents possibly being awake (if 6:30 is when it happened) and the dogs going crazy.

Alicia was certain in regards to the time she heard all the commotion outside her bedroom window on the other side of the wall.

Could it be that at 6:30 AM a staging was in process ... a staging which implied barking dogs/family at home/daylight would not have been an issue when a 6' cement wall surrounding the yard is considered?

Could it be that Isabel met her demise sometime following the ball game?

I am convinced the surveillance footage will be the smoking gun.

Little League team holds vigil for missing girl
April 25th, 2012 04:27 PM ET

<snipped>

Vega, who coached baseball with Sergio Celis, said he told him the family was allowed to back into the house Tuesday to get a few things but the situation has been very hard for them.

Another coach, George Hanna, told HLN’s Natisha Lance, “I trust Sergio and his wife with my children and I always will.”

Hanna said Isabel and her family were at the ballpark watching a game last Friday night  and Sergio stayed afterward to help clean up, which may be why Isabel went to sleep so late.

Friends said the last time they saw Isabel was last Friday night. She was at the ball park with her family, watching her brother play baseball. Friends said the game started late, and that is probably why Isabel went to bed so late that night.

I am hopeful stuff is happening behind the scenes in the Isabel Celis investigation and ... arrests will be forthcoming.

I am convinced that the surveillance footage will be the smoking gun.

I am off.  Have a good afternoon all.

JUSTICE FOR ISABEL!

i agree janet.  i think dad is involved and/or knows who is involved. 

I have been going over the neighbors interview again, and I apologize if I missed anyone addressing this already, but I think after reviewing it again, that the Uncle knocked on her door around 8- 8:05am, did not identify Isa as his niece, they had a brief exchange, and then she got dressed, went outside around 8:15, looked over at the window, and then spoke to LE when they responded.

I think it was just a situation of NG peppering her with questions and not picking up that the times were not correct, imo.

What continues to bother me, is that if your child is discovered missing with an open window- aren't you going to yell their name out of it, first thing?

Not one person, including this neighbor is saying that the family was yelling through the neighborhood, yet the brother is at the store asking if they heard anything at about the same time.

Also, wouldn't it mean the Uncle stayed over at the home, if he is over at the neighbor at 8am?

Male voices outside the window at 6:28 AM,  Uncle at neighbor by 8,  911 call to LE by 8:15am.  I would really like to know if Becky was called at work before 911.

TPD wants video, photos of events with Celis familyPace of tips coming in has slowed; police search bodies of water

As the search for missing 6-year-old Isabel Celis moved into its seventh day, police said Friday morning that the pace of tips coming into investigators has slowed and they are asking for photographs and video from anyone who may have been at a park or event the Celis family attended.

With the help of Pima County Sheriff's Department boats and sonar equipment, investigators searched the lake at Lakeside Park for any signs of Isabel or evidence that might lead to her. Police also searched bodies of water at Kennedy, Reid and Columbus parks, but had no breakthroughs, said TPD spokesman Lt. Fabian Pacheco.

TPD said Thursday morning that they were receiving a steady stream of tips, in part because of a statement made to the press Wednesday by Sergio and Becky Celis, the parents of Isabel. They have received more than 300 tips.

 ::snipping2::

Pacheco also said they are receiving the cooperation of Mexican authorities who have been looking at bus stations and businesses.

Police say the search took them to several local parks and lakes near the girl's home.

"There was an extensive search there, of Lakeside Park; however, nothing turned up," said Tucson Police Lt. Fabian Pacheco. "We then continued that search to other bodies of water here. We searched Green Park Lake, and also Columbus park, and North Silver Bell. So that's yet another angle as it relates to searching bodies of water. "

Hi Blink

In the NG interview Alicia claims that she heard the commotion ... went back to sleep and ... the next thing she heard was an officer and Isabel's uncle knocking on her door at 8:00 AM.  Considering the 911 call reporting Isabel missing was made at 8:15 AM ... I would assume that Alicia's was mistaken about the time.  Unlike her 6:30 AM awakening ... Alicia may not have check the actual time.

The uncle?  I never read that the uncle spent the night at the Celis'.  Could it be that the uncle was living with Isabel's grandparent who resided a short distance away?  Could it be that he was contacted by his brother/SIL around the same time as the 911 call was placed and asked if Isabel was there?

IMO

GRACE: We are taking your calls. And joining me right now, a special guest, a guest who is emerging as a crucial witness in this search for Isabel Celis, Alicia Stardevant, the next-door neighbor whose bedroom window only feet from Isabel`s.

Alicia, again, thank you for being with us. After you heard the male voices that morning, 6:30 AM, I assume you tried to go back to sleep. What was the next thing you heard?

STARDEVANT: The next thing I heard was a knock on my front door from her uncle and an officer saying that Isabel was missing.

GRACE: What time was that?

STARDEVANT: It`d be 8:00.

GRACE: So at 8:00 AM. Are you sure of that time?

STARDEVANT: It might have been 8:05. It was definitely 8:00-ish.

<snipped>

GRACE: When? What time?

STARDEVANT: It was right -- it was right after they told me. I put on some clothes, and I looked over the wall. So it was probably, like, 8:15 maybe.

When Celis' father went to wake her up around 8 a.m. she was not it the home, according to Hawke.

The family called police around 8:15 a.m.

There is no residential garbage on Saturday, it is Thursday, I posted the search screenshot upthread, and I have not found a single commercial hauler that has a Saturday pick up.

Anyone know if trash is mandatory union labor in AZ?


If something happened to this child accidentally, I am just not feeling these people would make all this up, not both of them anyway.

And if it did, then someone needs to come clean for Isa and her brothers sake.  I can forgive accidents ( not the Cword kind, I mean the real ones)

If it is a situation like I opined earlier, that it was a " I thought she was with you" deal, and they are making this up to avoid a charge of some kind and thinking-

"well, we have investigators looking for her anyway so why put ourselves in a position to be arrested if she was nabbed under or nose" or whatever,  I am going to lose it.  The investigative time that scenario would waste is unforgivable.

In my experience, if we are getting more and more detail after 7 days, which all seems to point to the scenario presented as unbelievable and illogical, something is going to have to break soon.


CPS had better have been called, and Isabel and her brothers should be appointed a GAL.

Lastly, could the Uncle have been confused for the brother at the convenience store?  

Janet you are exactly right about the wording,  I am going to need to review it against the video again.

is the uncle the celis that lives at 5701 E 12th

The searching of bodies of water in the area lead me to believe LE is leaning towards the mother maybe? Don't stats show that the mother puts her child in a body of water?

i think i read this somewhere because it's a "womb like" environment...i forget where i read it though.  it has to do with some psychological thing.  I think they are searching the bodies of water because they would be negligent not to in a missing persons investigation.  I think it just shows that they are fairly certain she is deceased.

Isabel Celis search gets help from billboard in Phoenix
April 26, 2012

do we know if the police were able to get warrants for the parents cell phone records to see where their phones (specifically the fathers) were pinging last friday night/early saturday morning?

Here is the link to the Freedom park baseball teams.  Who was playing that night?  Does anyone know? I am curious.

http://www.eteamz.com/freedomlittleleaguetucson/

I see the Yankees and the Dodgers in the Majors played at 7:30 on the 20th.  That's it.

Wasn't it Klaas that posted something about another Celis family in the neighborhood?  Maybe Uncle was called first as he lived close by and dad thought maybe Isa was with him?   Maybe Uncle and dad are the voices that AS heard outside the window?  But that would mean that they searched alone from 6:28 until 8:15, right?

I REALLY want to know what that security video revealed.

Any thoughts on this scenario...mom and dad tell the kids to go to bed and they head over to Uncles for drinks and late meal.  Something happens and now the parents are covering for the older kids?  It still might've been accidental but they're trying to keep brothers out of it totally? 

I know, I know...far fetched.  I guess I just want everyone involved to be innocent of a crime against this child and maybe just be stupid with grief.  You know, opposite and KC...who was stupid of a crime and innocent of grief.  lol

Field #2

Our late (7:30pm) games here are over at 9pm.  Even with cleanup we're out of there no later than 9:35 bathrooms and all.  Did anyone at the park stay with the Celis family the entire time and leave when they did?

Yeah KittyMom...my kids are usually done by then too...but here is the schedule for that day:

Fri 4/20    Diamond Yankees vs. Dodgers    7:30 PM - 9:30 PM    Freedom Field #2

http://www.eteamz.com/freedomlittleleaguetucson/index.cfm?subsite=6015246&league=2400178

I didn't go and see how far away they lived from the park.  Yeah...usually everyone is out of there soon after the last game.  So, I don't know.  Didn't they say they didn't get in until 11?  Maybe I am wrong about that time though.  I didn't reference back.

I wish we knew for sure if she was in school on Friday. The longer this goes on, the more I fear that at least one family member knows the true story.

Prayers for Isabel.

A Hat tip to those lovely IS posters (who never growl) ::monkeywine2::

Dad claimed he found Isabel missing when he entered her bedroom to wake her at 8:00 AM.

KittyMom

You could be right about Dad and Uncle being the voices that Alicia heard at 6:30 AM.

Could it be that the dogs became excited momentarily when the Uncle arrived to assist Dad in a staging/cover up?

Could it be that this is when the window was raised and the screen taken away?

Keeping in mind that a hit was made in the home by one of the canines brought in by investigators ... could it be that a deceased Isabel had been taken from her bed and temporarily placed in the non-working vehicle ... an action captured by the survellience camera?

Again ... I am convinced that the survellience footage is the smoking gun and ... the search warrants are all about gathering evidence to back up what the smoking gun revealed.  I could be wrong.

Janet

Did the surveillance camera capture the "five potential witnesses"?  Has there not been credible onfirmation that Isabel was at the ball game?

Tucson PD seeks 5 potential witnesses in disappearance of Isabel Celis
Posted on April 27, 2012 at 3:46 PM
Updated today at 3:54 PM
 
TUCSON, Ariz. -- The Tucson Police Department is looking for five potential witnesses who may have information about the disappearance of 6-year-old Isabel Celis.

The first-grader disappeared from her home between the hours of 11 p.m. on April 20 and 8 a.m. on April 21. Police said a window was open with the screen pushed aside.

Isabel is described as 3 feet 8 inches tall and weighing 44 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes.

On Friday afternoon, police said they believe two males and three females were walking near Isabel's neighborhood the night she disappeared and they are asked to call 911 as soon as possible.

It is believed the group was walking eastbound along the northern side of Saint Joseph's Catholic Church, located at 215 S. Craycroft Road, at approximately 1 a.m. to 1:30 a.m. on April 21, according to Sgt. Maria Hawke. They may have been walking in the direction of or directly to East Cooper Street. 

The group may have been leaving the area of the Cactus Moon Nightclub or Risky Business Restaurant and Bar located in the area of East Broadway Boulevard and South Craycroft Road.

Police are also looking for anyone who took video during a baseball game that Isabel's family attended the night before she disappeared.

Rick Moore ... the owner of the building where the surveilance camera was mounted was a guest once again.  He  shared that he did view some of the video from that night/morning with investigators.  Apparently ... there was activity around the Celis home ... people and vehicles.  Isabel's Father and Uncle were capured on video.  However ... the time was not clarified by "Rick".  I wish Nancy would not keep interrupting.  Jean did question Rick about the 6:30 AM timeframe but he was vague.  I think Rick was uncertain how much he should reveal.  Investigators have the original recordings.  I am looking forward to reading the posted transcript.  It happens around 10:00 PM PT.  Friends are coming over to play cards with hubby and I tonight (Scrabble was voted down) so I will take a boo tomorrow.

Sleeping with baseball bat: Isa's friends cope with her disappearance
Police urge parents to send in video from game night

CREATED Apr. 27, 2012

Reporter: Marcelino Benito

TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - The sun set on day 7 of the search for Isabel Celis with still no trace of the six-year-old girl. It was one week ago Friday night that someone other than Isabel's parents saw her at a little league baseball field at Freedom Park. Now police are hoping anyone at last week's game shot video that could help lead them to Isabel.

Two teams took the field to play. One of those teams included Isabel's brother's baseball team. The same team she was watching one week ago. But baseball was the last thing on everyone's mind.

"It's hard for us to take the field," family friend and little league coach Joe Vega said. "We're playing with heavy hearts."

Several parents tell 9OYS they remember seeing Isabel running around, playing, having a good time. One parent recalls Isabel eating some potato chips, choking momentarily on a chip, before a little league mom gave her some water and patted her on the back. The fun continued around the dugout that night. Hours later though, she'd be missing.

Sorry, Klaas,

I do not have the talent to illustrate a post, coordinate a picture with a phase.
Perhaps, this is why, I enjoy the full written story on a post, and pass it along.

I do agree, it is a tad much, sorry.  I think everyone brings something to the Table.
I enjoy everyone's, talents and opinions.  Just call me Mrs Kravitz:)

Obits, somehow, I manage to dig and add them up :) I cannot figure that one out.

Seahorse - NP  ::dogwag::

Went and read...thanks.  Glad to see a lot of people are seeing that figure...hope they find out who it is.

So who works at the Cactus Moon I wonder?

It does appear there are several witnesses who can attest that Isabel actually was at the baseball game.  Could it be that investigators are attempting to back up witness accounts with hard evidence?

Could it be that the search warrants related to the house and vehicle were all about collecting evidence to back up what was revealed on surviellance footage?  Then there is the recently released surveillance clip by investigators requesting potential witnesses who were captured on video to come forward.

Police Examine Security Camera Video in Isabel Celis Disappearance
Aired April 27, 2012 - 20:00   ET

<snipped>

RICK MOORE, MOORE SECURITY SERVICES: That`s absolutely correct. We also do intrusion. And it`s more security solutions, Nancy. Thanks.

GRACE: So a lot of people are wondering why would you have cameras trained on the Celis family home. Explain.

MOORE: You know, Nancy -- Nancy, that was almost a coincidence. Really, our thought process when we set the cameras up was to protect the back of our facility. Our showroom is literally about 25 yards from where we`re standing right now.

We put a couple of cameras in the back to protect the back entry in case of intrusion on our showroom, to protect the vehicles that are parked there for the employees. And of course, there`s a lot of graffiti and tagging going on, so we were hoping to maybe use it for that. And we have seen tagging going on.

But coincidentally, the cameras are looking right over in this area. We`ve got a couple cameras that are facing the alleyway, and then one that happens to see right towards the street that Isabel lives on.

GRACE: OK, Rick Moore, everyone, joining us, the owner of Moore Security Services, actually has cameras trained on the Celis family home.

Have cops come to your place and taken or looked at video of that alley behind the Celis family home which was being videoed at the time of the kidnap?

MOORE: They certainly have, Nancy. They contacted us right away, about 8:30 on Saturday morning. We do have some signs up in the back of the showroom area, where the cameras are located. It has our phone number on them.

So what they did was they contacted us right away. My general manager came down to the facility, to the showroom, interviewed for four or five hours with detectives, looked at footage then, reviewed footage, then came back Monday and spent basically all day.

Then had us record the information for them on a USB drive. We furnished them with all the information that was stored on the hard drive, on our digital recorder. They took it with them. Hopefully, they`ve got it now and they`re poring over that information that may provide some leads for this investigation.

GRACE: OK, very quickly, Rick, where is the original video?

MOORE: The police have it now.

GRACE: OK.

Could that be a security guard coming to the back of the property within the fence to see what those people (the 5 partiers) were doing?

Zona Road was created in 2010 by singer / songwriter Gray Vickers and guitarist Kody Herring. Gray and Kody met while collaborating on another project and soon realized that county music was their calling. The project took many turns as Zona Road struggled to find the right rhythm section until they met local Phoenix drummer Frank Angel. Shortly thereafter Zona Road completed their line-up with once guitarist now bassist Keith Hammerl.

Armed with drive and talent Zona Road began a flurry of shows at local water holes and shortly earned the right to play at larger concert venues such as Toby Keith's I love This Bar and Grill, and Cactus Moon in Tucson.

Isabel Celis: Tucson Police Looking For Group Seen On Surveillance Video
28 April 2012

<snipped>

FBI search dogs, including a scent dog and a cadaver dog, hit on something in the house that police noted was “important” to the investigation on April 22. Police then executed search warrants on the Celis home and other homes in the neighborhood, though they would not say which ones.

This is a Bing Image of the Precise Location, G= Guy.

The 5 exit to E. Cooper.

The individual I will call G6, is inside the fence and must be an adult based on the fence height.

Thanks Blink

I still don't see what others do in regards to this sixth person but ... I will take your word for it.  This is huge.  I would be veeery interested to know what other activity took place outside the Celis home that night/morning.  Could what is fully revealed on the surviellance footage be the smoking gun that will provide answers to the disappearning of Isabel?

The released video clip?  What is the time?

Janet

Janet, there is definitely an individual (G6) who is seen briefly coming into view after the group passes, and then again when the appear to crest the alley.  There is a very large dumpster which abutts that fence Klaas showed me on google earth, no idea if it is there constantly or was the early am of April 21.

I could not read the official timestamp but want to say it is like 1:29am-  if anyone knows for certain please feel free to correct me.  I am cautious about believing surveillance timestamps as they are all over the place usually.

There was an impromptu press conf this afternoon I presume the raw video will upload shortly.

If anyone saw it or has the link and can post I would appreciate it as my phone is ringing off the hook with rumors, lol.

What I know:

A reporter asked if Sergio Celis was under surveillance.  The answer was they will not comment on those aspects of the investigation.

From Me- he definitely is.  They all are.  It is standard protocol, so is "monitoring" the house and all phones.

Tucson police release new information about Isabel Celis case

Posted: Apr 28, 2012 2:49 PM

TUCSON - Tucson Police say one person has come forward, who self-identified themselves from surveillance video released by police Friday.

The cameras captured five individuals, three women and two men walking on the east side of St. Joseph's Church last Saturday. The church is located in the area of Broadway and Craycroft. Authorities hope to piece together the timeline of Isabel Celis' disappearance. Police say they are in the process of interviewing the individual and hope to identify the others in his group.

Sgt. Fabian Pacheco says the efforts to find Isabel are not focused on any one avenue and detectives are considering all options.

Potential witness from video speaks with police in Celis case
Police chief makes plea for more information as fewer tips come in

Updated Apr 28, 2012, 2:30 pm

Janet Rose Jackman TucsonSentinel.com

Investigators in the case of missing 6-year-old Isabel Celis were speaking with a man who identified himself as one of the potential witnesses seen in a surveillance video released Friday night, TPD spokesman Lt. Fabian Pacheco said Saturday.

Pacheco said the man identified himself to Tucson Police, and investigators are hoping to learn the identities of the other man and three women seen in the video that shows the group walking through a parking lot. Police believe the group may have walked east along the north side of Saint Joseph's Catholic Church, 215 S. Craycroft Rd., between 1 a.m. and 1:30 a.m. Saturday.
 ::snipping2::

There also are FBI and U.S. Marshal Service personnel working on the case, Pacheco said.

Manuel Barrios, director general for the Sonora State Investigative Police, has distributed information about the case and photographs of Isabel across Sonora. where officers are being told to look at businesses, industrial areas and bus stations, Pacheco said.

At Saturday's press briefing, Pacheco shot down a reporter's question about whether there is a drug-related investigation linked to Isabel's case.

I'm so glad that someone from the group has come forward.  I am sure the rest will be identified now (if they haven't yet).  Hopefully they are able to give some valuable information.

Thanks Blink.

Isabel Celis search volunteers raise funds through car wash

Posted: Apr 28, 2012 4:05 PM
Updated: Apr 28, 2012 10:36 PM


TUCSON - Volunteer efforts continue this weekend, strong as ever, as they pass out fliers, hang up posters and even hold a bake sale

For one woman, this case hits close to home. Tammy Frayser said about three years ago, her daughter was abducted, and she wanted to do something for the Celis family to raise money for the volunteer efforts.

"You don't know where they're at. You don't know if they're okay. You don't know if someone's hurting them. You don't know. That's the hardest thing. You don't know," said Frayser.

She said she knows what the Celis family is going through, so she decided to help out and organize this car wash at Autozone to raise funds to continue volunteer search efforts.

"I got here at 8:30 and there were already people handing donations," said Frayser.

She said in just 45 minutes, more than $100 had been donated.

The money will go to pay for more fliers, billboards, water for volunteers, and anything that could help bring Isabel home.

"Every single person who helps, that is one step closer to bringing Isabel home," said Abbe Aslauer who donated to get her car washed.

Sgt. Fabian Pacheco says the efforts to find Isabel are not focused on any one avenue and detectives are considering all options.
As of 2 p.m. Saturday, police say 28 tips have been reported through 911, 88-CRIME and the new TipSoft program.
TipSoft is for those who would like to report a tip through texting on their cell phone. Police are averaging eight to 10 tips per hour.
To report a tip specific to the Isabel Celis case, enter "TucsonPD5265".
The reward for information in the case is $50,000.

Just to clarify, he did not say that they were close to issuing an amber alert although it sounded like that initially, I do not think he understood the question exactly.

In fact, the same reporter asked the same question again at the end because it was unclear, and he responded he DID NOT say they were close to issuing an amber alert, and would not say one way or another what their status was on that.

They will not confirm an actual abduction at this point, which would be a criteria of course.

RAW VIDEO: Police track over 100 leads in missing girl case
04/23/2012 10:05 AM

TUCSON - In this raw video clip, Tucson Police Chief Roberto Villasenor answers questions from the media regarding the disappearance of 6-year-old Isabel Celis.

Chief Villasenor says that over the past 48 hours, they have tracked over 100 leads that they have received, making sure that they have thoroughly investigated every possibility.

Answering a question as to why an Amber Alert has not yet been issued, Chief Villa senor said: "We don't know exactly what we're dealing with yet, so an Amber Alert would not have been productive."

He says that the news media has been instrumental in getting information out to the public.

LOL, CW- no problem.

If y'all have not seen the press conference this afternoon-  it is confirmed.

They do NOT know who "G6" is, and they were looking for the 5 initially to identify who he is and what he was doing, or if they had any exchanges or observations.

Who was running around a secure area containing a large dumpster at about 1:29am on 4/21?

CLEARLY aware of, and out of sight of the group walking though the lot.

Sorry, I hit submit too soon.

Ok, it is official, I am trying to be as objective as possible, but there is no way to interpret the fact that LE provided a detailed list of media requests for both local and national outlets encouraging the Celis's to give as many interviews as possible.

They have declined, and have provided no explanation.

How is that "never stop looking, we are looking for you" as Sergio Celis stated.

There is not going to be an explanation I am going to understand for that type of behavior when a 6 year old child is missing.

Unless she isn't.

Hmmm...what kind of information do they have?  Sonora, Mexico is 5 hours and 18 minutes away per Google map.  

Is there any kind of search engine that shows if an individual lived in Mexico?  Anyone know of one?

Thanks Janet.  In that video they show a clip of the five walking in the area that night as well as the sixth person.  I was never able to see the sixth person until now.

I don't understand why they don't know the i. d. of all five.  They must have asked the ones they interviewed.  

sorry lab, i have no idea.

 :gaah:  Why are the parents not out there pleading to the public for help in finding Isa???  I would be on every media outlet that was available!!!!!!

What are the chances that the video group will remember anything truly helpful.  This group had been at a club.  They're walking along after a night of drinking, dancing, socializing.  They're talking about the evening and probably the next day.  Unless something really odd happened, why wouldn't it just be another walk home in the dark late at night? 

Frankly, I'll be surprised if they remember anything of the walk at all.

Can

I "think" I can finally make out that sixth image on the video.  It took the assistance of a pair of much younger eyes than mine.

Could it be that the elusive image is the reason that investigators want to talk to the other five?

The surveillence footage?  I am somewhat disappointed in the clarity.  I had thought it would be the smoking gun.  In other words ... considering there is no way (I don't think) that any of the six persons could be identified by viewing that video clip ...  could it be that the surveillence footage images can only be considered a tool in the investigation.

Technology put a man on the moon ... you would think technology could afford surveillance cameras that could do the intended purpose ... the intended purpose of clearly identifying persons in the act of wrongdoing ... clearly identify potential witnesses.

NANCY GRACE
Police Examine Security Camera Video in Isabel Celis Disappearance
Aired April 27, 2012 - 20:00   ET

GRACE: What did you see?

RICK MOORE, MOORE SECURITY SERVICES: What did I see?

GRACE: Yes.

MOORE: You know, we saw -- what we see is a lot of vehicles, Nancy. We did see some people coming through the alleyway. The cameras are trained right onto the alley, which leads right from where we`re standing right now. So we see cars coming in and out, a lot of vehicles, makes, models, color, things of that nature. And I`m sure that`s what the police are using to investigate it.

We also saw some people wandering through the alley. Whether that`s pertinent information, I`m not sure. But it is information that the police took with them, and I`m sure they`re chasing down those leads.

GRACE: Got it. OK, Rick, when you state that you see cars going by, you can see tag numbers, you can see people. What did you see around Isabel Celis`s home that Saturday morning around 8:00 AM?

MOORE: You know, what we saw that morning -- again, it had been light for a little bit. What we basically saw, the first people we saw on the street -- we did see some activity in the alleyway right behind us. But the police have all that evidence.

What we saw right here was a couple of people walking up and down the street, Nancy. And we think that that was maybe the father and the brother. And then the police had us right at that moment cut off the digital recording, and they took that evidence and that`s when they took it away. So we think that that was just the father...

GRACE: So they did not let you see the rest of it?

MOORE: No, ma`am, they did not. We don`t have it anymore.

GRACE: So what you observed, Rick, that morning around 8:00 AM, approximately 8:00 AM...

MOORE: Right.

GRACE: ... is Isabel`s father and his brother, which would be Isabel`s uncle, walking around in front of the Celis home.

MOORE: Nancy, that`s conjecture on my part. I think that`s who it was. The police didn`t want us to speculate about who that was.

GRACE: OK, great. You earlier -- I get it.

MOORE: We didn`t know Isabel`s father at the time (INAUDIBLE)

GRACE: I get it, Rick. I get it that you don`t know who the people are. You earlier mentioned...

MOORE: Yes, ma`am.

GRACE: ... quote, "activity in the alley." What activity in what alley?

MOORE: Well, there`s an alley, Nancy, right behind us. It`s about 25 yards right behind us. That`s, again, about 25 yards from the front door of Isabel`s home. And it runs right behind our showroom, and that`s where our cameras are trained on. So there was activity up and down that alley...

GRACE: What kind of activity?

MOORE: Again, it was just people wandering through alley, vehicles coming up and down through the alley and vehicles walking -- coming out of the alley that`s right here in front of Isabel. Now, what makes and models and tags were, that`s in the police`s hands now, Nancy.

GRACE: Question. Is your video infrared?

MOORE: It does have infrared technology, fortunately, Nancy. So these are outstanding...

GRACE: What does that mean...

MOORE: What that means is that now we have the capability with this new technology, Nancy, that we can see things from a pretty good distance at night. These cameras do work very well at night.

GRACE: So your video...

MOORE: We`ve got the best...

GRACE: ... is going to be able to capture...

MOORE: ... cameras trained...

GRACE: ... surveillance of tag numbers and people, even though it`s dark outside, right?

MOORE: It is pretty amazing technology, Nancy. And that`s kind of the point, is that there`s a lot of new and great stuff that you can use to protect yourself and your community and your family.

Janet,

I'm under the impression that the video released is not the video from the surveillance company.  This is from another area.  I don't believe that LE has released the video that was pointed directly at the Celis home.  I am glad that you are able to see the sixth individual in the video.

Thanks for that info labubske.

Could it be that I can again cling to the hope that Rick Moore's survellance camera which was aimed at the Celis' home 25 yards away  is the "amazing" technology that he claims and ... it will be the smoking gun that will reveal the truth regarding the happenings that  night/morning encompassing the disappearance of Isabel Celib.

Nevertheless ... my heart sinks regarding this "amazing" technology when I consider that Rick Moore concedes that he is only speculating regarding the identity of that the two person captures walking in front of the Celis home.

Needing a woman's voice on the record, they called up vocalist Adilene Muraz, "I'm actually honored to be in it, cause it's awesome."

As it turns out Muraz also knows the Celis family, the connection was known after she was brought on to sing the part.

"Isabels' family is actually from Douglas and her uncles I went to school with," she adds.

Concert raises funds for Isabel Celis search

 ::snipping2::

Extended family members were on hand to give a personal thanks to the community for their support in efforts miles away in Tucson.

However, it was being so far away that actually spurred the concert. Those close to Isabel's father ,who was a part of the chorus for more than 20 years, wanted to help and show that the Valley is with them in spirit.

"We are continuing to pray, think about you, we are sending our love and our hope and we know that we are going to find Isabel," said Harris.

After the concert, donations were collected to help with search efforts. Isabel's immediate family could not attend the concert, but her father made a request of the chorus.

"Her father sent an email saying, 'Please video this so she can watch it when she gets home,'" said Harris.

http://www.kpho.com/story/17927729/concert-raises-funds-for-isabel-celis-search

According to the press conf going on right now- the video is actually dated wrong and is from Saturday evening/Sunday morning , not Saturday am the 21st.

He said the company had the date wrong.  Now seeking the right date.

Media requests were discussed again with the family again yesterday.  Waiting to hear how they will want to proceed.

This PIO is flustered today, understandably.

My sources say they have since the Sunday after Isa's disappearance.

Family has not returned home.

Blink ... you were cautious ... I was convinced.  I apologize for doubting ya.

Janet

I can only think of one reason that the family will not return to the home...they've been advised by atty that LE might listen in to conversations.

 ::rhino::

Rick Moore states on NG that LE has had the surveillance video since the getgo ... surveillance video from a camera that was directed on the Celis' home from 25 yards away.  Could it be that Isabel's parents realized very early on that they were busted once that footage was revealed?

It is like pulling teeth to get an answer from LE but ... these briefings cannot be negated.  The refusal of LE to give a simple answer to a simple question ... a simple answer in the negative or the affirmative ... speaks volumes.

Have cops come to your place and taken or looked at video of that alley behind the Celis family home which was being videoed at the time of the kidnap?

MOORE: They certainly have, Nancy. They contacted us right away, about 8:30 on Saturday morning. We do have some signs up in the back of the showroom area, where the cameras are located. It has our phone number on them.

So what they did was they contacted us right away. My general manager came down to the facility, to the showroom, interviewed for four or five hours with detectives, looked at footage then, reviewed footage, then came back Monday and spent basically all day.

Then had us record the information for them on a USB drive. We furnished them with all the information that was stored on the hard drive, on our digital recorder. They took it with them. Hopefully, they`ve got it now and they`re poring over that information that may provide some leads for this investigation.

Police: Surveillance video released last week was of the wrong night
Posted 2:17 PM 4/30/2012

TUCSON - Tucson Police say the video released last week in an attempt to identify individuals with possible information about the Isabel Celis case was from the wrong night.

In a 2 p.m. news conference, Tucson Police spokesperson Sgt. Fabian Pacheco confirmed the video released to the public late last week was taken from the evening of Saturday, April 21, into the morning of Sunday, April 22 - 24 hours after Isabel Celis disappeared from an east side home.

Sgt. Pacheco said the video, provided by a company near the Celis house with a 24-hour surveillance camera, was not time-stamped. Police have requested video from the evening of Friday, April 20, and the morning of Saturday, April 21, and the company is working to provide that video, Sgt. Pacheco says.

TPD: Video of witnesses in Celis case was from wrong day
Police mistakenly release video from day after girl was reported missing
Posted Apr 30, 2012, 2:41 pm

Tucson Police said the surveillance video released Friday that shows five potential witnesses walking toward the neighborhood of the Celis family home was from the wrong day as the case for missing 6-year-old Isabel Celis moved into its 10th day.

The footage captured on the video that shows a group of two men and three women walking through a parking lot was actually from April 22, one day after Isabel was reported missing. The error was blamed on the video lacking a time stamp, TPD spokesman Lt. Fabian Pacheco on Monday.

Police had released the video believing it was from April 21 between 1 a.m. and 1:30 a.m., Pacheco said.

Tucson Police took statements from three of the people seen on the video over the weekend, Pacheco said.

TPD: Video of witnesses in Celis case was from wrong day
Police mistakenly release video from day after girl was reported missing

Although drawing no links to Isabel's case, Pacheco also said the department is working with Pima County Sheriff's deputies on a report of three children who were allegedly sexually assaulted early Monday morning in a bedroom at a home in the 11100 block of E. Mountain Gate.

The three girls, ages 6, 8 and 10, were reportedly assaulted by a man, described as white and in his 20s, who entered the bedroom at their grandparents' home around 2 a.m., said PCSD spokeswoman Deputy Dawn Barkman.

Not at all, I have worked on cases where LE or the security footage provider has not adjusted for daylight savings , or if the agency reading or distributing it is using an interface within a different timezone, some programs will revert.

That is just two examples and the higher the level of sophistication,  sometimes the greatest margin for error.   I got a lesson in Zulu time last year during a GPS tracking course that made me realize that what software or real time interfaces are used to "read" the data are as important as what the footage or data is that is being analyzed.

Unless one is really experienced specifically in surveillance recovery, there is huge margin for error.

I was under the impression that footage came from the mount on the rear of St. Joe's,  has it been established that it came from Moore?

Now that would surprise me if someone in the very profession could get that wrong.   

Was listening to JVM (?) on the radio tonight and she said that 3 little girls who live about 10 miles from Isabel said that they were sexually assaulted in their bedroom last night, around 2 AM . I believe they are aged 6,8 and 10 yrs old...
a white male possibly in his 20's...
Anyone else hear that?

Police seek more video in Isabel Celis case

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) -- Tucson police are searching for more surveillance footage from the night a 6-year-old girl went missing from her home.
 
A Tucson Police Department spokeswoman said Monday that video of potential eyewitnesses walking near Isabel Mercedes Celis' house the night she disappeared is likely from the wrong night.
 
Sgt. Maria Hawke says the two males and three females in the publicly released footage have identified themselves and told authorities the video wasn't from the night Isabel disappeared.

Tips about missing girl slowing down

TUCSON, Ariz. - It's been 10 days since a little Tucson girl went missing.

Police tell us tips about the whereabouts of 6-year-old Isabel Celis have been slowing down over the past couple of days -- but says they are still making progress in the case.

Police have revealed they spoke with at least 3 of 5 people captured on video walking near a home where Isabel disappeared. The video came from a nearby business.

At first police told us the video was taken early Saturday morning, but later said the date was incorrect.

Have you noticed some of the Mother's family/friends on her facebook are listed as living in SONORA? Klaas had found her facebook and posted upstream, this is the link......interesting to say the least ::MonkeyShocked::

This is the strangest case.  I can't believe that LE released the wrong tape.  I mean come on?  How many of the individuals they were looking for had to tell them which night they were looking at before LE checked the recorder?  A defense atty will have a field day with this.

Hmmm...very interesting.  Thanks cartfly.  I didn't even think to look there...ha!  Long day.  My son's principal called to say that he had given the bird in class...he is ten and my youngest. 

Janet, that is correct the footage of the wrong day was released from St. Joe's.  As we all know that is the Celis's place of worship.  I sincerely hope that was a completely unintentional error.


Like you, I am most interested in what Moore's footage reflects.  If it contains anything definitively investigative to this case, we will never see it and it has likely been sealed.

I can't see LE spending 5 hours with Rick Moore as their is an active investigation into the disappearance of a missing child if there is not- at that point they have one goal- does the instant case warrant an amber alert?  We saw the conclusion on that issue- so we know there is no evidence of a kidnapping at the very least.

Another observation as I am thinking Isa's case this morning before I need to finish an update piece on Kelli Bordeaux-

The storm window in Isabel's window, which was dusted for prints, and clearly had lifts that were visible, was not removed and taken into evidence.

It is still right there with the CST tag on it.

That says it all. 

If the window that Isa was allegedly removed from was found to be the point of entry or exit, or hold any evidentiary value, it would have been taken into evidence property inventory.

Well, I have not wanted to post this because I hate to put any focus on the family if indeed they are not involved.  But, as in any case every scenario needs to be addressed.  With that said...didn't I read somewhere that the home was foreclosed on; however, they were able to save it?  What is mom's profession, a nurse?  Dad is a part time dental hygienist...yet, they own home worth nearly 400,000 dollars.  Does his acting really pay that much?  How did they come up with the money to save it? To me that is odd...unless they inherited some money or hit the lottery.  Is there something else going on there?  Just a question.  I don't want to suspect the family at all...I am merely stating a possibility.  Surely this isn't set up to collect money from donations and such.  Maybe she is safe in Sonora...one could only hope.

Isabel Celis: Police Look for Break in Similar Case

Could it be that the Moore security footage reveals that a cover up was taking place at 6:30 AM ... a coverup that involved removing a screen and opening a window ... a cover up setting an abduction stage?  The silence encompassing what was revealed in the Moore video speaks volumes.  IMO.

KittyMom ... I agree.  Cracks are beginning to emerge in regards to family dynamics.

Police ask Isabel Celis' parents to go public

TUCSON, Ariz.-- Investigators searching for Isabel Celis, the Tucson 6-year-old who have been missing for more than a week, are encouraging her parents to take more of a role in the case.

"We believe it would be good for them to speak to the media," Lt. Fabian Pacheco of the Tucson Police Department said.

Pacheco said Sergio and Rebecca Celis have cooperated in all other aspects of their investigation.  Tucson Police say they have asked and encouraged Isabel's family to do media interviews.

I really don't understand not going public especially when LE encourages you to do so.  How many families BEG to be on morning shows to get their loved one's face out there. 

KittyMom

The one media outreach Isabel's parents participated in they revealed NOTHING about the evening and morning prior to reporting their daughter missing.  No questions by reporters were accepted.  Why?

Could it be Sergio and Becky retained attorneys at the getgo ... retained attorneys as soon as they realized that the Moore surveillance cameras were directed on their home from 25 yards away ... retained attorneys who advised them not to say anything more to investigator than they claimed in their initial statements?

Could it be that investigators immediately informed the parents of Isabel of the camera's existence anticipating a positive response but ... the response was anything but positive?

Think about it.  Why is Lt. Fabian Pacheco making a public plea for Isabel's parents to speak to the media?

I suspect that invesitigators require answers regarding revealed activity that the surveillance camera captured prior to 8:00 AM on the morning Isabel went missing but ... they are not receiving answers from her parents.

Police Examine Security Camera Video in Isabel Celis Disappearance
Aired April 27, 2012 - 20:00   ET

GRACE: OK, Rick Moore, everyone, joining us, the owner of Moore Security Services, actually has cameras trained on the Celis family home.

Have cops come to your place and taken or looked at video of that alley behind the Celis family home which was being videoed at the time of the kidnap?

MOORE: They certainly have, Nancy. They contacted us right away, about 8:30 on Saturday morning. We do have some signs up in the back of the showroom area, where the cameras are located. It has our phone number on them.

So what they did was they contacted us right away. My general manager came down to the facility, to the showroom, interviewed for four or five hours with detectives, looked at footage then, reviewed footage, then came back Monday and spent basically all day.

Then had us record the information for them on a USB drive. We furnished them with all the information that was stored on the hard drive, on our digital recorder. They took it with them. Hopefully, they`ve got it now and they`re poring over that information that may provide some leads for this investigation.

Circumstances
Isabel Mercedes Celis's parents put her to bed on the night of Friday, April 20th around 11pm. Mom woke up before everyone else, got ready for work and left around 7:30am. Dad woke up shortly after and went to wake the children. It was around 8am when he noticed Isa was not in her room. At that time the police were notified. A screen from one of the windows was compromised, the blinds had been shoved aside.

Honestly cookie mine isn't either...I have tried to look at different angles.  They look like they are really active in the children's lives...and how does one go from a baseball game to doing something horrible to their child?  It just doesn't seem to fit.  Of course...ANYTHING is possible.

Perhaps "someone" saw them as an easy target (if related  to Sonora) ........beautiful family taking trips to Vegas looking like they were doing well for themselves......
The only hinky twinge I had was with the Dad during the press conference early on. He just appeared "odd" to me like he knew something/who was responsible and why. I don't feel like they hurt this child but may know who is responsible.....jmo

I think the choice of media outlet could be very telling.  This is already a national story, heard it on one of the local news stations earlier, so there is no need to go with any of the networks.  If they give the interview to local stations, it will get broadcast everywhere anyway. 

Also a thought on the red car.  In that one odd PC the parents had Mom said something along the lines of keeping the focus off of them.  Perhaps they were going through a rocky patch and one of them was using that car to sleep.

Have the older Celis boys returned to school and little league games?  What's going on with this family?

It is NG so take it with a grain of salt.

I have to agree that my hinky meter is not going off, however, people looking from the outside at my family would have never guessed what went on behind closed doors.  My step-father coached my brothers little league and later attended all their football and basketball games.  That didn't keep him from going off in vicious rants and pointing a gun at my brothers when he was really mad.  It didn't keep him from molesting me, either.  So, sometimes it is hard to tell what a family is really going through. 

So true...flutter.  You never really know what is going on behind the closed doors.  Sorry you had to go through that. 

I would like to know if this is true.  I was trying to find who lived in the home down the street...when I look up the records it looks more like it would be Sergio's parents home (well that is the name on the property appraiser site).  I know that it was said somewhere that Sergio's brother lived there...so I'm not real sure.  But, if they are looking into Mexico...then wouldn't that be HER family that is there?  Am I right on that?  So, was there a cousin in the home, I wonder?  Maybe that is why they want video and pictures from the baseball game that night.  To see there interaction.  Is mom's maiden name Lopez?

Very true.

Bedroom attack could be linked to Isabel Celis disappearance

An attack on three young girls has been reported at a Tucson-area home just 10 miles from the house where 6-year-old Isabel Celis may have been abducted from her bedroom.

Authorities are investigating whether the bedroom assault early Monday morning has anything to do with Isabel’s disappearance. Isabel was reported missing around 8 a.m. on April 21, and her parents told police she was last seen in her bedroom when they put her to sleep the night before.

Pima County Sheriff’s Department Capt. Chris Nanos told HLN’s Nancy Grace that Monday’s incident occurred in a quiet neighborhood north of Tucson where three girls, ages 6, 8 and 10, were sleeping at their grandparents’ home. Nanos said around 1:48 a.m. the family reported that a white man believed to be in his 20s had come into the girls’ bedroom and molested one of them.

“All three reported an individual had walked into the bedroom, assaulted one of the little girls, left the bedroom, then returned to the bedroom and engaged in conversation with one of the little girls who challenged his story to her. He then fled the house,” Nanos explained.

 ::snipping2::

Nanos praised the young girls for providing valuable information about the suspect. “I can’t say enough of their courage. They are the heroes in this case,” he said.

Tucson police said Monday that they do not know if there is a connection between the two incidents, but they are reviewing the cases to determine if there are any similarities. The possibility that Isabel was kidnapped from her bedroom by a stranger is one of several that authorities are considering.

 

Cousin?  Coincidence?


Pray for Isabel
Posted on 01. May, 2012
by Erika Pedroza

The Messenger office has fielded a few calls with story tips for This Justin, a sister paper birthed last week for the residents of our Denton County neighbor.

Last week, I took a phone call from a Northwest High School senior, Alex Celis. His cousin, 6-year-old Isabel Celis was presumably kidnapped from her Tucson, Ariz., home two weeks ago.

His uncle put her to bed and when he went to wake her up the next morning, she was gone. As of Tuesday afternoon she had not been found.

Because Alex is a Justin resident, the story is more suitable for the Justin paper, and reporter Mary Wendell is working on a story for the newspaper published biweekly.

However, he petitioned prayers for the recovery of his “adorable baby cousin.

I am still convinced that the Moore surveillance footage will be the smoking gun and ... the smoking gun will reveal there was a staging happening when Alicia head all the commotion at 6:30 AM ... a staging that involved opening a window and removing a screen to suggest a stranger kidnapping ... a staging to protect a family member from the consequences of an illegal act that caused the demise of Isabel Celis.

Logic dictates that barking dogs would have scared a stranger kidnapper away.  Logic dictates that a stranger kidnapper did not scale a six foot wall carrying a little girl.  IMO

Could the existence of the Moore surviellance footage explain the silence and the unknown regarding the whereabouts of Isabel's parents?  Based on what was revealed by the Moore surveillance footage ... do Sergio and Becky realize that investigators are aware that an abduction of their daughter never happened and ... it is just a matter of time before the truth is revealed.

I decernment is where it is at in regards to the words that come from Nancy Grace's lips.  However ... if Nancy states emphatically that a family member claims a cousin is currently under suspicion ...   somehow I believe her.

Is surveillance video key to solving missing girl investigation?
Posted: Apr 25, 2012 7:40 PM
Updated: Apr 25, 2012 7:40 PM

TUCSON - Police are investigating hundreds of leads regarding the disppearance of Isabel Celis, but one business in the area may have a big key to help solve the puzzle.

Rick Moore of Moore Security Solutions has surveillance cameras placed right outside his company--a company that is just feet away from Isabel Celis' family home.

Rick Moore said his cameras were on the watch the night Isabel disappeared.

"And the cameras that we have located in the back were looking where a lot of things were happening," said Moore.

Moore said he believes these cameras provide more information to police than any other nearby camera because of their location.

"In terms of maybe license plate numbers, cars going by - these cameras also have infrared technology so you can see at nighttime and that will help too, since the abduction occurred between 11 and 8 o'clock," said Moore.

Moore said on Saturday, his general manager spent about five hours with police, showing them surveillance video of the area, and on Monday, they were back again to review video and get a copy of activity from 10 p.m. Friday night to 9 a.m. Saturday morning.

"There was activity going on," he said. "There were vehicles...there were people wandering around. There were things that we saw and we did get recorded so that information we did release to the police."

Investigators bring family members to Celis home

Updated: May 02, 2012 2:38 PM PDT

TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) - Isabel Celis' parents returned separately to their home this morning. Both were accompanied by investigators.

In his daily news conference, Tucson Police Lt. Fabian Pacheco said the family is still cooperating and assisting with the investigation. He said the police were not serving a search warrant - the investigators were there with the parents' permission.

Investigators brought the family members to the house "to speak with them there and evaluate the scene," Pacheco said.

Shortly after 11:30 today, investigators arrived in two cars and entered the house through the garage with a man who appeared to be Sergio Celis. After he left, Rebecca Celis arrived.

Investigators later brought another person into the home who appeared to be a boy in his teens.

At the time, police did not confirm the identities of any of the people brought to the house.

Pacheco said they are not focusing on any one suspect in particular, but "nobody has been ruled out."

Tucson police detectives accompanied the parents of Isabel Celis back to the family home Wednesday as part of their investigation into the 6-year-old girl's disappearance.

A police official said the return to the house was part of the "normal investigative process."

Detectives took Isabel's father, Sergio, and mother, Becky, into the house separately.

"The family has been cooperating," said police Lt. Fabian Pacheco at the 2 p.m. police briefing. "We are there with their consent to continue our investigation."

Detectives are continuing tracking down the numerous tips that have come in about Isabel's disappearance, Pacheco said. About 500 tips have been received, including about 100 since Tuesday.

Pacheco said some of the tips "aren't very good, but they still have to be checked out."

He said the department remains positive as the search is in it's 12th day. "We continue to be hopeful that she will return to her family safe and soon," Pacheco said.

Professional cleaning crew now at the Celis residence.  ::dogwag::

I was at the dentist, missed the PC...I'll bite.  Whose car was in the garage?

Nancy Grace just stated that the "cousin" who is allegedly under investigation has previusly been referred to in the media as Isabel's had been or was living lived in the Celis home.

Considering the Moore surviellance camera appears to have captured both father and uncle leaving the home at 8:00 AM on the moring of April 21st ... could it be that this uncle had been in the home that night?

What did the Moore surviellance camera capture at 6:30 AM ... 6:30 AM when Alicia was woken by the sound of voices and barking dogs?

Celis’ family has no doubt she was kidnapped by a stranger.

“You don’t think anything like that would actually really happen to you. And all of sudden, you wake up one morning and you’re in that scenario. Everything goes through your mind, you’re angry, you’re upset, you’re frustrated, you’re confused,” said Isabel’s uncle and family spokesperson Justin Mastromarino.

Mastromarino said her family is a loving one.

“They’re very upset right now, mother is beside herself we’re just trying to let police do their thing and get as much info as possible,” said Mastromarino.

Mastromarino described his niece as “just a sweet little girl.”

“All the ambition in the world. She could do whatever she wanted. Didn’t really like strangers or anything like that so very close knitted and just very wise,” said Mastromarino.

NANCY GRACE
Police Examine Security Camera Video in Isabel Celis Disappearance
Aired April 27, 2012 - 20:00   ET

GRACE:  With us, special guest Rick Moore, who had video cameras specifically trained on the Celis home. He describes seeing who he believes to be Isa`s father and uncle coming out of the home around 8:00 AM that morning, walking back and forth, apparently looking for Isa, we can surmise.

<snipped>

GRACE: ... is Isabel`s father and his brother, which would be Isabel`s uncle, walking around in front of the Celis home.

MOORE: Nancy, that`s conjecture on my part. I think that`s who it was. The police didn`t want us to speculate about who that

<snipped>

GRACE: Ellie, what time, do we know exactly, was the 911 call?

ELLIE JOSTAD, NANCY GRACE PRODUCER: Yes, exactly. It was 8:14. But police did say family did a quick search before they called

SELF-EDIT

media as Isabel's had been s/b media as Isabel's uncle had been

I was posting what I heard the PIO say during the presser. 

And I just bet there were 'bugs' in the house, on their phones, and anywhere else LE deems necessary.  And I'll just bet having the parents and young boy go in separate was to determine if there were any inconsistencies in their stories. 

I saw that on a headline earlier and wondered why they would call in pros?  I mean, what is there possibly in there that needs professional cleaning?  I'm thinking there must be something beyond fingerprint powder. 

I'd love to ask the cleaning crew if there are any odors present.

Attorney

A repeat Nancy Grace is beginning now.  I will watch again but ... I thought there were three vehicles coming and going.  Each carried a member of the Cerio family along with investigators.  I could be wrong.

I must have somehow missed a bunch.  Whose attorney and was he, or she, waiting in the house?

Search for Isabela Celis extends to Douglas


The search for Isabel Celis has reached the border communities of Douglas and Nogales and even into Mexico, officials are now saying.

Missing person flyers have been posted at various stores in both communities and authorities are following up on various leads they have in the case.

Isabela’s family has ties to Douglas. Her mom Rebecca (Snyder) Celis is a 1995 graduate of Douglas High School and at one time ran for the title of Miss Douglas.
