SALISBURY: Sex offender charged in kidnapping of missing girl, 11

By Deborah Gates • Staff Writer • December 24, 2009


  SALISBURY, Md. – The Wicomico County (Md.) Sheriff's Office has charged a 30-year-old Salisbury man in the disappearance of an 11-year-old girl who is still missing.

Delaware State Police have joined Maryland authorities and volunteers in the search for 11-year-old Sarah Haley Foxwell.

Sheriff Mike Lewis announced Wednesday night that family acquaintance Thomas James Leggs of Salisbury, a registered sex offender, has been charged with kidnapping and burglary.

Dive teams searched a local pond Wednesday night and law enforcement agencies from across the region are continuing the search today, helping the sheriff's office search for Foxwell in several square miles of dense woods

Foxwell was last seen in Christmas-themed pajamas inside her Old Ocean City Road residence about 9:30 p.m. the day before, and by Wednesday evening her disappearance had been re-classified from a "missing person" investigation to a "non-family abduction," said Lt. Babe Wilson of the Wicomico County Sheriff's Office.

Several dozen police officers were joined by volunteers from as far as the western shore and northern Delaware, who searched in freezing nighttime temperatures Wednesday as authorities questioned Leggs at the Sheriff's Office.

Earlier Wednesday, the search focused on a radius about three miles in either direction of the girl's residence, Wilson said.

A police command center was established about noon Wednesday at a church on Zion Road at Zion Church Road, a location that is central to the residences of both the girl and Leggs, Lewis had said.

Details about Leggs' conviction for a sex crime were not immediately available, Lewis said.

A national Amber Alert about the 4-foot 8-inch tall Foxwell also was issued.

By early evening, scores of both law enforcement personnel, local Good Samaritans and professional volunteers from outside the area had either joined the search or were on standby to help. Police helicopters from both Maryland and Delaware state police agencies joined, as did the Maryland Natural Resources Police Search and Rescue, Salisbury Police Department, Worcester Sheriff's Office and Delmarva and East Coast K-9 search and rescue units.

"Everybody is offering," Wilson said outside the command center. "(Police) officers from Fruitland, Delmar, Ocean City have contacted us."

Police ask anyone with information about Foxwell's disappearance to contact the Sheriff's Office at 410-548-4891.

Bennett Road where the sicko lives is not far from the residence of this precious child.
There is still snow on the ground and bitterly cold, in the 20s at night.  It doesn't sound good for this child.
How can a SO be a "family" friend?  Maybe they didn't know.  I hope that is the case.

SALISBURY, Md. — Police in Maryland were searching Christmas Eve for a missing 11-year-old girl last seen wearing fuzzy Christmas pajamas, and they have charged a registered child sex offender in her disappearance.

Thomas J. Leggs Jr. of Salisbury, 30, is charged with burglary and with kidnapping Sarah H. Foxwell, according to court documents.

Wicomico County Sheriff Mike Lewis said Sarah was last seen Tuesday night at her home on Maryland's Eastern Shore. A relative discovered she was missing early Wednesday while checking on Sarah and her 6-year-old sister.

"She wasn't in her room," Lewis said. He said there was no evidence of forced entry to the home where the girls live with their aunt, who is their legal guardian.

Dive teams searched a local pond Wednesday night, and scores of police officers from across the region scoured several square miles of dense woods on Christmas Eve. They brought in helicopters and dogs to aid their search.

Police also released a photograph of a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup used by Leggs and they asked anyone who may have seen the champagne/tan-colored vehicle to contact authorities.

Sarah is white, 4-foot-8 and weighs 78 pounds. She has brown hair and blue eyes. When she disappeared, she was wearing red fuzzy pajama bottoms with Christmas trees on them and a pink John Deere T-shirt.

"I will tell you this: We have not given up hope and we will continue to search all day today and throughout the night," Lewis said. "We won't go home until we find this little girl."

Leggs, a former boyfriend of the aunt, is being held at the Wicomico County Detention Center without bail, Lewis said. He is being represented by the public defender's office, which did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

Leggs is listed on the Maryland and Delaware sex offender registries. The Maryland listing notes that he is a child sex offender, but does not give details about his conviction.

Lewis said Leggs has been convicted of sex offense in Wicomico County and was charged Oct. 29 with fourth-degree burglary.

"He was developed as a suspect early on in the investigation before we were aware of his criminal background, but he does have a criminal history to include third- and fourth-degree sex offenses of small young females," Lewis said.

In 2001, Leggs was convicted in Delaware of rape for having sex with a victim who was 16 or 17, according to the Delaware registry. The registry describes his risk level as "high" and notes he is unemployed.

Leggs, who has been convicted of assault several times, also is awaiting trial on charges of burglary and destruction of property in Ocean City.

I can't believe this.  Right before Christmas of all times.  My heart goes out to this little girl.  I pray and pray and pray that she is found safe.  But I don't think that's going to be the case.  I read about the perp that has been charged.  He's a hardened criminal with non conscience. I say we string him up by his toes and all take turns hitting him like a pinata.  Better yet, use his private parts instead of his toes. 

Oh wait, I forgot.  That may be a little too harsh in our civilized society--a society with one of the highest rates of crimes against children in the world.  We should just sit him down and talk with him.  Kumbaya everyone.  (Monkey sarcasm intended)

God Bless You Sarah.  My thoughts and prayers are with you.
