UPDATE:
U.S. secret service reveal Carlee Russell’s searches on her phone hours before she reported a toddler was missing and then “disappeared.” This is what she searched:
- “you have to pay for an amber alert or search”
- “how to take money from a register without being caught”
- “Birmingham bus station”
- “one-way bus ticket from Birmingham to Nashville”
- (the movie) “taken”
- information about Amber alerts on her work computer
- Other searches that police say reveal her mindset that won’t be released
The local news also reports no child was missing.
