BREAKING: The mother of a missing 10-year-old girl from Florida has been arrested and charged with child neglect. Passha Davis, 34, was taken into custody on Tuesday and is currently held in the Broward County Jail as of Wednesday morning.
The girl, Gabrielle Terrelonge, has been the focus of a statewide Missing Child Alert issued by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement on Monday. Gabrielle was last seen with her mother at a Walmart in June but was not reported missing until October 29, 2023, when her father reported her disappearance after Davis was arrested for shoplifting.
Davis appeared in court on Wednesday, where her attorney declared her not guilty of the charges. Her bond has been set at $100,000. While Davis’ legal representation did not address Gabrielle’s current situation, reports reveal that the girl’s aunt has raised concerns about Davis’s mental health and history of homelessness.
Authorities are urgently seeking information regarding Gabrielle’s whereabouts. Anyone with information is urged to contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI or local law enforcement. The case continues to develop as officials work to locate the missing child and clarify the circumstances surrounding her disappearance.
This alarming situation has captured the community’s attention, highlighting the critical need for vigilance in child welfare. As the investigation unfolds, updates are expected to provide clarity and hope for Gabrielle’s safe return.
