The body of missing 9-year-old Indiana girl Aliahna Lemmon has been found after a frantic search by local and county officials and the FBI. The body of the little girl was found after County police and FBI agents interviewed 39-year old Mike Plumadore.
According to officials the family friend who was watching Aliahna and her two sisters have been officially charged with murder.
Plumadore initially said the girl vanished after she was placed in bed for the night, the trailer park where she was sleeping is a known haven for sex offenders which helped aid Plumadore in his original statements. Police soon realized however that the man had criminal records of his own in Florida and North Carolina for trespassing and assault.
The search was aided by more than 100 volunteers and the little girls body was found in northeast Indiana’s Allen County, the same location where his families mobile home park is located. At this time authorities are not stating exactly where the body was found.
The day before her bodies discover a Facebook support group named “Find Aliahna Marie Maroney Lemmon Missing from Fort Wayne, Indiana” posted a group message that read:
“Merry Christmas Aliahna where ever you are! We won’t give up on you!” and “No kid should be missing Christmas!”
Our condolences go out the the little girls family and friends in their time of mourning.
