@nbcla: The mother of a 9-year-old Santa Barbara County girl who disappeared last month has been arrested on unrelated charges, the sheriff's department said Friday.⁠ ⁠ Ashlee Buzzard, 40, was arrested in connection with a recent incident during which she "prevented a victim from leaving a location," the agency said. She was arrested on suspicion of felony false imprisonment, authorities said.⁠

when my sister was murdered they arrested the guy on theft because Mexico doesnt extradite for murder. then they built the case while the 2 people who did it sat in jail.

quintonthinkz💭 :

So let me get this right a mother chose to remove her daughter from an area when she is the primary chooser of being able to do that so you found a reason to arrest her 🙄🙄 everybody got a opinion did you guys not get dropped off at your grandparents house or somewhere? Random when your mother was overwhelmed The girl looked healthy and happy to me.
