Yesterday, in a moment of being hurried I posted a couple of Amber Alerts, and went on about my day. In the back of my mind I thought of them- one involved an infant, stolen from her mother and the other involved a little boy.
The story said that little Geontae Glass was sleeping in the back of his mothers car
when she stopped at a store to grab some juice. Glass' mother reported that she left him asleep in the car while she quickly ran inside. In what could only be described as a mothers worse fear, a man approached the vehicle, and jumped inside- stealing the car with the child still in the back seat.
A search for the child quickly began, with an Amber Alert issued, listing the child as in extreme danger.
Geontae Glass was found this morning, apparently murdered. At first thought, most of us will quickly wonder what the car thief had hoped to gain by coldly murdering a little boy. How could anyone justify killing a child over a stolen car?
Before your heart breaks for the mother in this case, new developments have taken a twist on this "stolen car" story, and police now are taking a close look at the mother and her boyfriend for the child's death.

Before your heart breaks for the mother in this case, new developments have taken a twist on this "stolen car" story, and police now are taking a close look at the mother and her boyfriend for the child's death.
A mother who told police her 5-year-old son was abducted by a carjacker lied to police to cover up his death as a result of "physical abuse and trauma," a sheriff authorities in Alabama told CNN on Tuesday.
"We believe the evidence is going to show that these two -- in different acts, in different roles in the tragedy -- caused the death of this young fellow," said James Hayes, sheriff of of Alabama's Etowah County.
The body of Geontae Glass was found early Tuesday in the mother's car outside her boyfriend's residence in Rainbow City, near Gadsden, Hayes said.
