Little girl taken

 Don't know about the  rest of you but my heart is breaking with this, probably hits home with quite a few of us who fish that area yearly.

Knowing the country up there as being god's own country but evil has hit.

I'm hoping beyond hope this pond scum is caught but each day the light fades for this little angel. 

Hope the reward today tempts someone to give that tiny clue to crack open the case and maybe a miracle.

This world  really is fucked  sometimes.

Yep, certainly hitting deep.

Yep, certainly hitting deep. We were there earlier this year with so many other families having a ball with minimal care in the world.

A friend is a homicide detective and he has been sent up there indefinitely. 
 

Really scary stuff that there is no trace. Hopefully they find her unharmed but I can't see it being the reality. The place will change forever.

 Terrible situation, I've been giving my kids extra cuddles after hearing about it. Couldn't imagine what the family would be going through. Hoping it's all just some sick prank and she comes out of it happy healthy and unharmed.

 This is just so tragic Andy. You would thing your kids would be safe from rock spiders in a place like that. Just goes to show there is evil anywhere. Hope there's a good outcome but that looks very unlikely unfortunately.

Mon, 2021-10-25 09:30

What I dont get is that they got there at 6:30 friday night and she was gone between 0100 and 0600 the next morning. I dont know about you but when we rock up late at a camp site, we dont socialise with too many people during the set up, perticularly as we would be cooking dinner with the kids going to bed shortly thereafter. 

It is all very odd.

 Apparently that's exactly what they did. Some creep was obviously watching them from very close by. Hopefully for the family's sake we find out eventually what actually happened.

 It's a tad strange, we sleep

Mon, 2021-10-25 12:49

 It's a tad strange, we sleep with the kids (4 and 2) monitors on still and even the kids stirring wakes me up the Mrs more so. The sound of the zipper opening in the same tent would've been fairly loud. Not to mention picking up a small child in a sleeping bag with out disturbing her enough for her to wake or start talking or at least moan. Then manage to walk out of the tent and through a campsite without the little girl feeling the temp difference and crying or talking. All sounds that would've not been able to have been suppressed especially a rusling sleeping bag. All of which would have sent a motherly instinct into over drive. Last time I was camping I could hear the bloke 3 tents down snoring. The little girl called for a drink which woke the mother but someone managed to get into the tent through a zipper take the girl in a sleeping bag and leave without waking anyone or disturbing the younger one next to her. I'm hoping this is some sick prank and she is alive and well somewhere safe.

Mon, 2021-10-25 16:52

I really do want to trust all that is being said, but I'm having trouble comprehending how this could happen under the circumstances.

Everything that Rob said, but also how did the perpetrator know that the girl was at the front of the tent and not the back.  It would take big balls to open a tent, not knowing if you were going to trip over the parents on the way in, or be immediately confronted by an angry parent.  

Besides that, normally when I walk into a tent at night, I trip over the entrance, kick the clothes case and stand on something sharp.  Rarely would it be quiet.

I hope the truth comes out soon, so we don't have another Azaria Chamberlain saga going on for years

Hi All

Tue, 2021-10-26 06:22

 Hi All,

Whilst publicity to get this far and wide is good so we can see Cleo returned home, I do ask that we are mindful of innuendo and assertions and the potential impact it may have to those reading this that are close to the family or are family members. Remembering we are a WA site and have quite a lot of Carnarvon members and the community is suffering badly at the minute, please factor that into your posts given you could imagine how everyone is feeling.

Cheers

Adam

 Fair call mate, I just can't belive that there are animals out there that would do this hence why I am struggling to believe it. I think everyone in Australia with young children are feeling this one.

 Thinking that maybe he just intended to rob them and maybe the girl woke up so he just panicked and took her so he didn't get sprung. She looked like she'd been looked after as best you can see so I'm hoping this is soemthign along the lines of what happened. The father in me wants to think that anyway.
