Washington’s Lindsey Baum case: Persons of interest lied to investigators

"It was a Friday night about 9:30pm when she left her friend's home, and she was going to walk to her home," said Grays County Sheriff Rick Scott. "Her walk would have taken her about seven, eight blocks to get to her house. She never showed up.” UPDATES: bit.ly/2OrAxie

I'm not criticizing the mom because I know she loved her daughter and felt safe it's just a scary world out there and some of us are more aware.

[@erios839]

This show said eight blocks and if you look at the map they presented it's not a short walk. 10 or 11 is very young still to be alone even in daylight but if the information they gave is correct 9:30 PM is usually not daylight. Still teenage girls are abducted on their way to school in the morning broad daylight. It doesn't make a difference day or night or 10 or 11. It's just terribly tragic and so sad that we need to be so cautious with our children and ourselves. Two incidents of attempted rape and kidnapping in the last 4 months in my neighborhood and I live in a neighborhood where the least expensive homes are a million dollars.

10 years old and walking home in the night. My niece wasn’t allowed to go the the near supermarket alone to buy candy during the day. It happened once and we all freaked out, she said she went with a friend and started crying. She never did it again because we warned her about the “all people are not good” and the people we say hi to can also be bad. She’s very beautiful and very kind. Now if anyone approaches her in school or asks to go with her they have to provide a save word, the police asked the parents to have a safe word because pedophiles were claiming that “your parents told me to pick you up or your mom is in the hospital I have to bring you there” so because of these incidents police asked all parent then to give the child instructions not to go with anyone that doesn’t know the “password” and scream.

@@fanniek1694 Don't get me wrong here when I say what I'm about to... but are you a parent? If so, have you ever turned your back on your child and they just weren't there all of a sudden? I'm a mom and as a parent we make decisions sometimes beyond our better judgement. There is NO rulebook. I do not stand up for parents who knowingly put their kids in harm's way like knowing their significant other abuses them etc... but things of other situations happen....For example, it was my bday and hubs watched our toddler in a busy shopping center as I tried on clothes. What could go wrong, right? Next I knew...he was calling her name bc he lost her. He lost her right there by the dressing room. For one time in a long time I put myself first and my baby went missing. I was panicked. I came out of the room after quickly getting clothes on and I searched for her and I found her. Bc as her mama I knew where to look and she was a long way away at that point from where we were in the store-at least for my comfort...as I had to walk about 100ft... But I found her quickly bc I knew where to look. She was fine... and that was that. I've always been protective. And that situation scared me yes but didn't change my parenting style at all... Now my little lady is 7yrs old and I don't let her out of my sight as I never would regardless ...when going across street to friends house even I watch her as I always would. BUT... is that a world we should be living in?? To sit there and blame a mom for a murderer taking advantage of their baby in a vulnerable situation? We can do better than that. I'm a mom that puts my daughter before my ever waking need and I could still end up like this mom and baby bc of psychopaths out there. We aren't all perfect and we dont all follow the same rule book... but it's a shame to say an innocent and grieving mom is responsible for what a psycho did to her daughter.... when I walk in front of my kid and for a second dont hear her behind me I stop and grab her hand.
