Dwight Stallings, an infant born in May 2010, was last seen in Sacramento, California, in early April 2011. His disappearance became a high-profile case when authorities were alerted by Child Protective Services (CPS) after several failed attempts to locate Dwight. CPS had been monitoring Dwight's mother, Tanisha Edwards, due to her history of drug use and previous custody issues involving her other children.
Despite CPS visits, Dwight had not been seen since early April 2011, leading to growing concerns about his safety.
Tanisha, who had struggled with substance abuse and had a history of inconsistent behavior, provided numerous contradictory stories about Dwight's whereabouts. At different points, she claimed he was with relatives, had been abducted, or had died. However, none of these accounts were found credible. In 2012, she was arrested on drug charges, and her evasive answers regarding her son's location led to additional charges. Authorities have not uncovered any definitive evidence regarding Dwight's fate, and it is feared that he may have been a victim of foul play. Despite investigations, Dwight remains missing, and his case is still unresolved.
The case is complicated by the fact that nearly a year passed before Dwight was officially reported missing, further hindering efforts to trace his whereabouts. Investigators continue to search for answers, and they encourage anyone with information to come forward.Last Seen: Apr 1, 2011
