On the radio, it was said she was in grave danger due to being physically abused by her mom, Tonya Martin. Grandmother has gardianship over her, and she was also physically assaulted by her daughter, Tonya Martin. **This is just what I heard on the radio.**

I hope this baby gets home safely. I am just curious why they believe she is in grave danger. What is it about this woman that would leave them to believe that? Important information I say.

Vague, vague report. Why is she in danger? Who is the person she is with? Is it her mother? I hope she is found safe and sound and unharmed by whatever "grave danger" she is in.

Exactly what other description were they supposed to give? They listed her physical description and provided what appears to be a very clear, recent photo of the child. God bless this child and keep her safe.
