Where is she? Missing pregnant woman Jessie Marie Davis, 26

Where is she?

"Lake Township - Patty Porter entered her pregnant daughter's home through the unlocked sliding glass door. Her senses tingled. Everything felt wrong. "Hello!" she yelled, her voice cracking with worry. "Hello!" Then she heard tiny footsteps bounding down the stairs. Tiny, panicked footsteps.

Her 2-year-old grandson, Blake Davis, popped into the living room in search of the familiar voice. The little boy appeared disheveled, and Porter could smell his well-soiled diaper. She looked into that normally bubbly face and found nothing but an expressionless stare.

"Blakey," Porter asked, "where's Mommy?" "

That question remained unanswered Monday.

The search for 26-year-old Jessie Marie Davis - due to deliver a baby girl July 3 - began Friday after her mother reported her missing. Stark County sheriff's investigators suspect that something grim forced the nesting Davis out of her home along the pleasant, tree-lined street.

Deputies found the woman's mattress moved out of place and missing an ornate patterned comforter that resembled an Oriental rug. A toppled nightstand and lamp lay nearby on bleach-soaked carpet.

What happened? The primary clues may come from a pint-size witness.

"Mommy was crying," Blake told deputies. "Mommy broke the table . . . Mommy's in rug."

Officials offered no interpretation.

1. Scary/sad story

I heard they found a newborn baby girl nearby, but what happened to the mother? :scared: :(

2. It is pretty scary

They are doing DNA tests on the baby, but I don't think it is hers.

They had a case down that way a few years ago where the one woman kidnapped another woman who was pregnant. The woman killed the pregnant woman and took her baby and tried to pass it along as her own. She ended up killing herself when they were going to get her. Weird story that was.

This isn't really happening right where I live, but close to it. So I am seeing a lot of local coverage and that's why I posted it. I am guessing it is more national now?

I feel so bad for the family, and I just can't imagine what her son has gone through. :(
