[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 444253, member: 1514"] I guess this would come up when the child actually is found. This would have closed that hole in her case and given the jurors and jumping off point to link the child abuse charge to felony murder. Not reporting a child missing for months and months would be a federal felony and therefore a parent would be automatically guilty of child abuse. Now I am sure there would be exceptions to this rule. I can think of several. Say your child was staying with a friend for a few days ( or you thought they were ) and the kid actually ran away to be with loverboy21 from facebook. You might not know within the first 24 hours but you would know as soon as you did and you would notify as soon as you found out. Or even the reporting the death within one hour, plenty of parents leave kids over 13 home alone and if something should happen to them during the day you might not know until you got home which would be more than an hour...so...there again...a loophole..
