Chatham County Sheriff
Law-enforcement officers trying to find missing Georgia toddler Quinton Simon again searched the home where he was last seen as the police chief revealed the case now includes a “criminal investigation.”
Forty FBI personnel have joined the hunt for the 20-month-old, including members of the child-abduction and rapid-deployment unit, officials said at a Monday press conference.
Quinton vanished on Oct. 5—after his mother texted his babysitter to say she didn’t need to watch him that morning. The mother, Leilani Simon, reportedly told police the boy’s biological father took him, but cops say that is not true.
