Police say Shaniya Davis is still missing, and her mother is allegedly involved with the child’s disappearance.  Police say Antoniette Nicole Davis, the mother of Shaniya Davis, is facing a variety of charges to include Human Trafficking, Prostituting a Child, Filing a False Police Report, and Resist delay or Obstructing Justice.  Antoniette Nicole Davis, 25, is currently being held on a $50,000 bail. 

Earlier this evening, on November 15, 2008, around 6:00 p.m. I spoke with Shaniya’s father Bradley Lockhart.  He told me that all he wants is his daughter to be brought home.  Bradley has a message to the person or persons who has little Shaniya: “take her somewhere safe, a hospital, a police department, she’s a special young lady, she has a family that loves her, and we want her back.”  Bradley said on October 9, 2009, his sister dropped Shaniya off at Antoniette’s home.  At that time, Bradley was in Portland, Oregon working (he is a contractor, and sometimes has to travel).  Antoniette told him he wanted to keep Shaniya for a bit, and he thought she finally wanted to be a mother — so he gave her a chance.  For the last five years, Bradley says he’s the one who has taken care of his little girl,“I had limited contact with Antoniette, I used to have to beg her to see her child,” Bradley says.

Fayetteville Police received information on Wednesday night, November 11, 2009, that a man had Shaniya in his arms at a hotel in Sanford, North Carolina (about 45 minutes from where the child went missing). Cops say someone at the hotel called police after recognizing Shaniya’s photo from the news.  Police went to the location to check the surveillance, but the man and Shaniya were already gone.  Police released still photos from the surveillance camera of a man by the name of Mario McNeill carrying little Shaniya near an elevator on Tuesday morning, November 10, 2009 at 6:11 a.m.  Right now, investigators are not saying McNeill’s connection to child or her family.

He was arrested and charged with First-Degree Kidnapping.  The problem is, investigators still don’t know where the child is.

On Tuesday, November 10, 2009, Fayetteville Police were dispatched to 1116-A Sleepy Hollow Drive to investigate a child missing.  When officers arrived, a mother told them that her 5-year-old daughter, Shaniya Daivs was last seen that morning at 5:30 a.m. inside the house.  Investigators hit the ground, and an immediate search began.  That search today is on-going with the assistance of K-9’s, the local Fire Department, and Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office. 

Barbara Davenport, current Sleepy Hollow manager, and retired Investigator with the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office says she oversees 98 units in the Sleepy Hollow neighborhood.  Barbara told me, “the family moved in on August 5, 2009… I only rented to a woman named Brenda Davis and her son, so it was a surprise when Antoinette, her boyfriend, and other children were there… I’ve never seen this little girl, and I would remember seeing someone that cute.”
