BREAKING NEWS: MISSING OHIO MOM FOUND

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

10:00 a.m. – Information is coming in at this hour that missing Ohio mom Tiffany Tehan was found alive in Miami, Florida.  Police say it appears she was romantically involved with mystery man, Tre Hutcherson and she wanted to start over.  On a personal note, it is a shame Tiffany wasted so many resources and national air time on her ‘case,’ especially when there are other missing moms like Susan Powell, Lisa Stebic and Stacey Peterson (to name a few) that have been forgotten.

BACKGROUND: Police in Xenia, Ohio are still searching for Tiffany Tehan who vanished over the weekend. Earlier this week investigators released surveillance video photos of a mystery man with Tiffany two weeks ago. That man has been identified as Tre B. Hutcherson, 42, who authorities say has also been missing for days.

Captain Scott Anger of the Xenia Police told me Tiffany’s family does not know who Tre B. Hutcherson is, and they have never met him. Police say Hutcherson is known to drive a red Volkswagen Beetle, and sometimes a German Shepherd will travel with him in the front seat.

The search is back on today to find Aveion Lewis, yesterday searchers were forced to stop looking for the toddlers body due to inclement weather in Roanoke, Virginia.  According to the Roanoke Police Department, teams will focus on the 2100 block of King Charles Avenue and a wooded area along the river today.  Aisha Johnson, a Spokesperson for the police department says, “(we) have utilized the assistance of trained search teams from across Virginia and other states… the department thanks the community for its overwhelming support during this investigation… additional assistance from citizens is not requested at this time.”  Investigators charged Aveion’s step-father, Brandon Lockett, with improper disposal of a human body, obstruction of justice, and felony child neglect after a false report was filed that Aveion was abducted.  Police canceled an Amber Alert for the child after Lockett admitted Aveion was dead before the bogus abduction took place.  Authorities say they were able to get this information and come to this conclusion after conflicting statements were given to authorities early on.  Although police say Lockett admitted Aveion was dead before the Amber Alert was issued, investigators do not know exactly where the child’s body could be.
