Jenise Wright has been missing for going on five days now, and officials aren't really sharing a lot of information in the case. They aren't calling this an abduction, nor are they naming the parents as suspects, and they aren't allowing volunteers to help in the search. This is perplexing, but there must be a reason for it. To help gain better understanding of the case, I've laid out the following timeline. Check back often as this post will be updated with each necessary development.
Saturday, August 2nd between 8:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m.: This is around the last time Jenise was seen by her family. It would be 24 hours later before she'd be reported missing.
Sunday, August 3rd:The FBI confirms that the official search for Jenise beganat 10:34 p.m., after KCSO were called to the family residence at Steele Creek Mobile Home Park in East Bremerton, Wash.
Monday, August 4th between 8:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m.: The parents of the missing child are given polygraph tests and agree to have their home searched by investigators. The results of the polygraph test have not been made public. CPS officials remove the underage children from the home after police find "probable cause" to do so.
Tuesday, August 5th: Adult sisters defend the parents after public scrutinizes them for allowing a six-year-old child to roam freely by herself in the trailer park. It's revealed that James Wright (father of the missing child) had previously been charged with child molestation of his two stepdaughters (possibly the adult sisters of Jenise) but he pleaded the charge down to 4th degree assault.
Wednesday, August 6th: Police turn away volunteers wanting to search for Jenise and begin playing down the father's criminal past. FBI and police decide that sniffer dogs will be brought in on the search. Search area expands. Officials confirm that there is no evidence of an abduction, but refuse to call the parents suspects.
