Not a good way to start the new year

This was exactly the kind of story I hoped I wouldn’t see in 2010.

Baby missing as mom spends Christmas in S.A.

The FBI is now searching for missing 8-month-old Gabriel Johnson.

His mother, Elizabeth Johnson, 23, was caught Wednesday in Miami after spending Christmas in San Antonio.

According to police, Johnson left Arizona with her son, but, she does not have custodial rights to him.

In the past, Johnson made threats to harm the baby. She lost custodial rights on December 28, 2009, when she failed to appear at a custody hearing .

So far, there have been no signs of Baby Gabriel since December 26. He was not with Johnson when she was arrested, and she refuses to say what she did with him.

Her car is also missing.

I really, really hope she just left him with a friend or relative. And they turn Gabriel over to the proper authorities. I don’t want to add another dead kid to the list I’ve got already.

  del.icio.us this!
