Missing Indiana Girl Found Dead, Babysitter Arrested

[Hellsbells]

Tarah Souders, right, and her mother Amber Story

I blame Mom too fucking Cunt

 

[nopatience]

'No. They will not touch your children.

Name me one child molester who admits that he / she will mess with a kid?!

She knew it could be dangerous. The park of about two dozen homes was teeming with convicted sex offenders, with one living at nearly every address

Shumaker said Aliahna's family moved there to help take care of 66-year-old James E. "Shorty" Lemmon, who also was a convicted sex offender

Father or not, there is no way in hell I would move my kids anywhere near anyone who had been convicted of a sex crime KNOWING it could post a risk.

Aliahna and her two younger sisters were staying with Plumadore for about one week because their mother had been sick with the flu.

This doesn't sit well with me. I have been sick as hell and have NEVER had anyone else take care of my kids for a week. When the younger ones were babies, I had someone sit with them for a couple hrs just to rest, but not take them full time. I'm with [MENTION=2771]Hellsbells[/MENTION]. I blame the mom too. She purposely put her girls in harms way. Fuck her.

 

[GGsMum]

I agree with you [MENTION=2687]nopatience[/MENTION]. When we were on a quest to find our home, you best believe I searched registered sex offenders/crime rates/school records prior to submitting any offers on buying a house. Had there been ONE RSO near a home I was interested in, I wouldn't have even looked at it, just ONE, but she knowingly placed her children around 15? Why didn't she just throw all her babies into a pool of sharks and watch them get eaten alive.....

And I'm sorry, I'll probably burn in hell for saying this, (God rest my father's soul) had he ever been a sex offender or a child molester or anything of the sort - I wouldn't waste one fucking minute of my time caring for him - much less moving my whole family into a molesters complex.

Rest in peace little Aliahna baby girl, you will forever be free of all your illnesses and will be beautiful and young forever.

Here is some more info...

Plumadore told police Monday night where to find Aliahna’s remains, according to a probable cause affidavit.

Acting on what Plumadore told them, police went to two locations – the trailer he was living in and a convenience store about a mile away.

Surveillance video at Phil’s One Stop Marathon, in the 10000 block of North Clinton Street, showed police stopping in front of the Dumpster about 9:20 p.m. Monday and hauling it away on a flat-bed tow truck about 25 minutes later.

Aliahna’s stepgrandfather said at a candlelight vigil Monday that the girl suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder brought by abuse she suffered on two different occasions last year in Iowa. Story said the people who were responsible were caught by police, but he had no other details.

He said Aliahna felt bad about telling on the men because she didn’t want them to get in trouble. Aliahna also had a history of sleepwalking and vision and hearing problems and had attention-deficit hyperactive disorder, her family said.

There's more on the link, some of it is repetitive.

Plumadore dodged a warrant for over a decade:

Officials in Indiana have not yet said what Plumadore's motive may have been for killing the girl. Ann Howard, a spokeswoman for the Florida Department of Corrections, said on Wednesday that Plumadore was charged with battery of a first-responder in that state more than a decade ago and was given felony probation.

But he subsequently failed to report to his probation officer, fulfill his community service hours or complete an anger management course.

So he was reported an absconder on June 29, 2000 and a warrant for his arrest was issued.

That warrant was still active on Monday, when Plumadore told Indiana investigators where to find the little girl's dismembered remains and was arrested in connection with her death.

Plumadore's next Indiana court appearance is scheduled for Friday December 30, when he is expected to be officially charged with murder, according to Allen County Prosecutor's spokeswoman Danielle Edenfield.

http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/12/28/us-crime-indiana-babysitter-idUSTRE7BR1EI20111228

The father of a 9-year-old girl who was found bludgeoned and dismembered said Wednesday that he knew the man accused of killing his daughter and had no reason to distrust him.

"I can't talk about it because I'm still coping with it. It's too hard to talk about," Dawayne Maroney of Centerville, Iowa, said in a brief telephone interview with The Associated Press, adding that the gruesome slaying has him overcome with grief.

Maroney said he hadn't recently talked with his daughter, Aliahna Lemmon, or her mother, because they frequently changed their phone number. Maroney said he knew the man accused of killing his daughter, 39-year-old Michael Plumadore, through his daughter's mother, Tarah Souders.

Maroney said he trusted Plumadore.

"I had no reason to suspect anything," he said.

Plumadore faces a preliminary charge of murder. He made a brief initial court appearance on Tuesday where he was ordered held without bond. He is due back in court Friday morning. According to a probable cause affidavit, Plumadore admitted to killing Aliahna in the early morning hours of Dec. 22 by repeatedly striking her in the head with a brick.
[...]

Also Wednesday, Allen County Coroner E. Jon Brandenberger said he won't be able to determine the cause of death for Aliahna until further tests are completed, including microscopic findings and toxicology results.

"All of which are integral parts of the autopsy and all of which play significant roles in the accurate determination of the cause of death," he said.

According to the probable cause affidavit, Plumadore told authorities he put the girl's body inside trash bags and put it in a freezer in the trailer he lived in that formerly belonged to the girl's grandfather, who died earlier this month. Plumadore told authorities that later that day and early on Dec. 23 he used a hack saw to dismember the girl's body.

Brandenberger said parts of the girl's body were found in a trash container outside a convenience store — the same store where a surveillance camera video showed Plumadore went early Friday to buy a cigar. Plumadore told authorities he hid her head, hands and feet in the freezer at her grandfather's trailer.

There is a FB page set up for this fucker and when reading some of the posts, I came across some interesting info I thought you would all want to see.

Here is the FB page.

https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001586903207#!/justiceforAliahnaLemmon

Here is the article I found...

Davenport police have arrested a woman whose three girls were sexually assaulted by a man after she admitted to being aware of the alleged abuse for two years, police said.

The 29-year-old mother and the man are in custody at the Scott County Jail.

The mother was arrested Tuesday and is charged with child endangerment, an aggravated misdemeanor. The Times is not publishing her name in accordance with the newspaper’s policy to not identify victims of sexual assault.

Jayme M. Souder, 25, who was arrested Aug. 22, is charged with three separate counts of second-degree sexual abuse, a charge that carries up to 25 years in prison upon conviction.

According to police records:

Souder engaged in sex acts with the children, ages 8, 6 and 5, while their mother was working or not at home.

When police interviewed the mother, she told Davenport Police Detective Mark Dinneweth that her oldest daughter informed her of the abuse about two years before Souder’s arrest, police said. She also said she was informed of incidents numerous times during those two years.

The three children were subjected to continuous incidents of sexual abuse by Souder for at least two years, police said. The mother failed to make any attempt to remove or protect her children or call police.

The older child ultimately disclosed the abuse to personnel at her school and the school notified police and the Iowa Department of Human Services.

I believe this article was from when they were just living in Iowa earlier this month....I think - I could be wrong, but this is the general concensus on FB. And if this is all correct, then this Souder person ties back into another posting we have on here, about him molesting the 3 girls, this is the same guy.

Can someone else with a little more researching skills check into this and see if I'm right? I'd hate to be spreading false info.

 

[cubby]

Are you thinking about the story of the little girl who put her foot down and refused to go home or to let her sisters go home because of abuse by her stepfather? I remember that one too, and not too long ago. Are you thinking this is Aliahna? So sad for this little girl, her entire life was a travesty.

 

[GGsMum]

No - search this guys name, Souder, on here and read the post that comes up - I'm pretty sure he was on of the guys who was abusing little Aliahna and that is why she suffered from the PTSD..

 

[Alf]

I don't think the two are related, [MENTION=6800]GGsMum[/MENTION]. Terah's face is more square than the unidentified woman in Davenport and the abuse the three girls suffered was apparently continuous for two years, while Miss Aliahna apparently suffered "just" two episodes of abuse last year. Plus the sisters' ages don't correlate. Added to that, the female birth organism in Davenport is in jail, while Miss Aliahna's mommy isn't

It looks to me like it's a horrible coincidence, not a link in a chain.

Baby sitter murder charge in Indiana girl's death

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) — A trusted family friend who confessed to police that he bludgeoned to death a 9-year-old Indiana girl in his care then dismembered her just days before Christmas was formally charged Friday in the killing.

Michael Plumadore, 39, was charged in Fort Wayne with murder, abuse of a corpse and removing a dead body from the scene in the Dec. 22 death of Aliahna Maroney-Lemmon.

Allen County prosecutor's office chief investigator Danielle Edenfield said the charges will be read to Plumadore in jail, where he was being held without bond. An initial court hearing on the formal charges is scheduled for Wednesday.

Edenfield said she couldn't comment on a possible motive before the case went to trial.

never mind .. should have read the entire thread before commenting.

 

[Dakota]

Michael Plumadore, 39, of Fort Wayne was in court Wednesday morning for his initial hearing in the death of nine-year-old Aliahna Lemmon.

Security was tight with thirty Allen County Sheriff's deputies on hand as Plumadore was taken into the hearing chamber. Deputies were stationed around the perimeter of the courtroom for the proceedings and escorted him to a vehicle for transportation back to jail after his court appearance ended.

Allen County Sheriff Ken Fries said his department has been aware of threats made against the defendant and took precautions for the safety of not only Plumadore but the courthouse facility, community and law enforcement.

The hearing didn't take very long with Plumadore telling the judge that he understood his rights. The magistrate entered a not guilty plea for Plumadore.
[...]

Plumadore was arrested December 26th and charged with murder. His initial court appearance was scheduled for December 30 but postponed. Allen County Prosecutors added additional charges that same day, including one count of abuse of a corpse and one count of moving a body.

http://www.wane.com/dpp/news/crime/plumadore-in-court-this-morning

Archie Ingersoll with The Journal Gazette interviewed Plumadore while Aliahna was still considered "missing". Ingersoll wrote this about the encounter:

Plumadore next to the recliner where he claimed to have last seen Aliahna

On Christmas Day – before Plumadore had told investigators they could find Aliahna's body parts in his freezer and in the trash bin of a nearby business – I sat down with him in an aging but well-kept mobile home, where Aliahna's deceased grandfather used to live.

Aliahna's mother, her grandmother and her grandmother's husband were with us, too.

For about 1 1/2 hours, we discussed the disappearance of Aliahna who, at that point, had been reported missing for about 48 hours and had been the subject of a huge search. During our talk, it became clear that Aliahna's family trusted Plumadore like blood.

They pointed to the care he gave Aliahna's ailing grandfather until his death in early December. Aliahna's mother, Tarah Souders, said she considered Plumadore a brother, that he had become a regular baby sitter for her children and that they called him "Uncle Mike."

Plumadore, 39, showed me a small drawing Aliahna had made on a scrap of paper. It was a heart, and inside was written, "I love u Miek."

"That's one way I spell your name," Plumadore said Aliahna told him. He said this with a smile, the way a proud uncle would.

Aliahna's mother, grandmother and grandmother's husband all insisted that Plumadore had nothing to do with Aliahna's disappearance.

Plumadore, who was the last adult to see Aliahna, said he understood why many others suspected he was involved. But he said he was not taking it personally.

"I have a real massive and bad temper, but I've kept it in check because of Ailey," he said, using Aliahna's nickname.

However, he acknowledged losing his cool while investigators were interviewing him.

"When the FBI and stuff like that did an investigation, they tried that good cop, bad cop. They tried to put me in the category of an evil person," he said with his Southern drawl. "I kind of snapped and went off and jumped out my chair and had words."

Plumadore said he eventually calmed down and offered to let investigators sample his DNA and administer a polygraph test. He said he also gave them his cellphone without hesitation.
[...]

During my time with Plumadore, he gave his version of what happened Dec. 23. He told the story calmly and, as far as I could tell, consistently. The relatives of Aliahna who were present had no dispute with what he said.

Plumadore said he had stayed up all night because Aliahna had been having nightmares. At one point, she told him she missed her mother and wanted to leave. "But I said, 'Honey, you know, it's 2, 2:30 in the morning. We'll get with Mommy in the morning,' " he said.

About 6 a.m., Plumadore said he left the three girls in his mobile home and went to buy a cigar at a convenience store about a mile away.

He said he had locked the door to his home, and when he returned about 10 minutes later, the door was still locked and all the girls were there.

He said Aliahna's sisters were asleep on the floor, and Aliahna was sleeping in her grandfather's recliner.

"I brushed the hair back off her forehead and gave her a kiss and sat down and smoked my cigar, and I went to sleep about 6:30," he said. "I sleep on the couch. You know, they're not my kids. I'm not gonna sleep in the same bed as someone else's kids. And they all want to sleep together, so we all just sleep in the living room and watch TV together."

He said he woke up about 10 a.m. when Aliahna's mother called. After that call, he realized the door to the home was unlocked and that Aliahna was gone. Aliahna's sisters told him that Aliahna had left with her mother. Plumadore believed them, so he locked the door and went back to sleep until about 1:30 p.m.

When he woke up, he said he and the two other girls went about their day until about 8:30 p.m. That's when he talked to Aliahna's mother, who told him she did not have Aliahna. He told Aliahna's mother he did not have her either and that they needed to call police.

That was Plumadore's version. But he did more than just recite his story of Aliahna going missing. He subtly showed emotion and acted the way a concerned baby sitter might after losing a child on his watch.

He told about how on Christmas Eve a police dog seemed to follow Aliahna's scent to the school bus stop. "That's why I got my hopes up, and when it wound up being nothing, I mean, it just crushed me again," he said. "It seems like every time you hear something that might be positive, you think you've cried all your tears and then more show up."

He displayed worry about how long it had been since Aliahna had gone missing. "Look how many states she could be through already if someone were to took her off somewhere far away or something. I mean, they had a 10-hour window, at least, before we knew she was missing," he said.

He suggested that the person responsible for Aliahna's disappearance send an anonymous letter saying what happened to her or where she is. He said, "It would take a coward to do something to a child."

Plumadore even admitted to crimes in his own past. "I'm not an angel by any means," he said but added: "I don't hurt children. I don't hurt animals."

At one point during the interview, Aliahna's grandmother, Amber Story, consoled her weeping daughter and made a plea to whoever may have taken or harmed her granddaughter.

"At least let us know where she is, so we can bring her home," Aliahna's grandma said.

Plumadore heard her say this. But instead of ending their agony of not knowing where their little girl was, he brought them a box of tissues.

Guilty plea in Indiana girl's death, dismemberment

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) - An Indiana man has pleaded guilty to killing a 9-year-old girl three days before Christmas and dismembering her body.

Thirty-nine-year-old Michael Plumadore also pleaded guilty Friday to abuse of a corpse and removing a dead body from the scene in the Dec. 22 death of Aliahna Maroney-Lemmon at a Fort Wayne trailer park.

Plumadore's pleas mean prosecutors won't pursue the death penalty in his case. He'll be sentenced June 18 to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Police found the girl's dismembered body in trash bags. Her head, hands and feet were found in the freezer inside Plumadore's mobile home.

[Dakota]

When asked Friday by Allen Superior Court John Surbeck what he had done, Plumadore responded that he "repeatedly struck Aliahna in the head with a brick" and that she died as a result.

Responding to the charge of abuse of a corpse, Plumadore said, "I cut Aliahna up with a hacksaw."

Surbeck asked what happened next.

"I put parts in my freezer and took the rest down to the Marathon station and put them in a Dumpster," Plumadore said.

Assistant Prosecutor Steve Godfrey asked if those actions were intended to hamper any investigation, and Plumadore replied simply: "Yes, sir."

Aliahna's mother and stepfather sat in in the front row with eight other family members and friends. Two women sat behind Aliahna's mother, Tarah Souders, with their hands on her shoulders for much of the 45-minute sentencing. They were among about 50 people in the courtroom.

Godfrey declined to comment after the hearing and the family left the court without speaking to reporters.

Aliahna's step-grandfather, David Story, told The Associated Press from Jacksonville, Fla., that he was pleased.

"A needle in the arm is too humane for him," Story said. "I'm glad there's finally some justice for her. In the end, it will never end. But it does give me some peace of mind."

Michael Plumadore Gets Life Sentence For Dismembering Aliahna Lemmon

FORT WAYNE, Ind. – I got an update on 39-year-old Mike Plumadore, the man charged with murdering and dismembering 9-year-old Aliahna Lemmon last year.
On Monday, a judge sentenced Plumadore to life behind bars. Plumadore plead guilty to the murder last month and saved himself from the Pancuronium bromide and Potassium chloride cocktail he so richly deserves.
A few days before last Christmas, Plumadore was babysitting Aliahna and her 6-year-old sisters because their mother was sick. They all lived in the same trailer park and Plumadore was a trusted family friend who had cared for Aliahna’s dying grandfather who passed away a few weeks earlier.
Plumadore said that the next morning he woke up and found Aliahna missing. This would turn out to be partly true as cops would find the girl’s hands, feet and head inside Plumadores’ freezer. The rest of her was found in garbage bags at a nearby gas station. An autopsy report would reveal the girl had died from blunt force trauma and suffocation.
Plumadore was charged with Aliahna’s murder and prosecutors were going for the death penalty. But last month Plumadore admitted guilt and took a plea that would save him from a lethal injection.…
