Queen Prawn Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Police: Bodies Of Missing Georgia Kids Found POSTED: 5:53 am CDT April 25, 2005 WARRENTON, Ga. -- Police say the bodies of a missing 2-year-old girl and her 3-year-old brother have been found not far from their east Georgia home. The bodies of Nicole and Jonah Payne were found about 3:30 p.m. Monday afternoon in a small pond near the family's Warren County home. It was not immediately clear if the youngsters drowned. The discovery capped a frantic search for the children that began when they vanished Saturday. Earlier Monday, a Georgia Bureau of Investigation official said the search had reached a "critical point." Spokesman John Bankhead said "every resource" was being used to find the children. Nicole Payne, 3, And Jonah Payne, 4 The 2-year-old girl and her 3-year-old brother were reported missing Saturday night after last being seen at their home in east Georgia -- about 100 miles from Atlanta. The circumstances of Nicole and Jonah Payne's disappearance are not known. Temperatures dipped into the 30s Saturday night when the children were reported missing by their mother, Lottie Kain. Law officials said they thoroughly searched the woods around the family's east Georgia home, but went over the area again Monday. A sheriff's dispatcher said the search, which included police, a dog team and a helicopter, was halted for a while Sunday afternoon while agents from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation questioned the children's mother at her home. Dive teams were called because several small ponds are near the home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I saw this on Fox News. Sad story. I fear the mom, who reported them missing, had something to do with it, but I hope I am wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They showed the parents when they 1st got to the crime scene, not really showing any sorrow at all. Then they had the dad on for a interview and the same thing, just very unemotional. The whole thing was just weird, and I do believe that the parents had something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no correct way to act when you lose a child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
