Once again another child has come up missing. Little 5-year old Shaniya Nicole Davis from Fayetteville North Carolina was last seen from her home Tuesday morning and an Amber Alert has been issued for her.
Shaniya’s mother reported to the police who arrived at the Sleepy Hollow Drive home around 6:50 that morning that it was about 5:30 that morning when she last saw her daughter. According to the mother her own boyfriend and her sister with an infant and Shaniya’s 7 year old was at home at the time of her disappearance.
Fayetteville’s Police spokeswoman Theresa Chance said, “There is definitely something not right about the situation. Foul play is expected.†Although it isn’t quite clear exactly how Shaniya could have left the house, Chance went on to say, “The circumstances surrounding her disappearances are very odd. A 5 year old usually is not awake at 5:30 am normally and they just wouldn’t leave their home. If she would have wandered out of her home she would be around here somewhere.â€
It was discovered that Shaniya’s family has had major issues with the Department of Social Services and they only have custody switching back and forth. It is not clear if the child’s disappearance has anything to do with this or not. The father, who lives out of state, flew into town Tuesday night to talk to the police.
Chance says they are treating this case as a child in danger with the information they have now.
Police have had problems concerning this house before. After obtaining a search warrant a variety of drugs were found inside before.
Police did a search in the home and used the K-9 dogs along with firefighters and the sheriff deputies all day Tuesday. Chance stated that they are hoping to find the little girl alive but at this point they just don’t know.. She says the search dogs didn’t pick up her scent which normally if she had been wandering outside the home they would have.
Shaniya is described as a black female, about 3 ft. tall, and weighs 40 lbs. She has brown hair and brown eyes. She was last seen wearing a blue t-shirt and no shoes. She also has a thin scar on her left foot.
I would like to know more about this case especially about how her mother saw her at 5:30 in the morning yet a little more than an hour and a half later the police is there responding to a missing child call. This really confuses me. My prayers are with this little girl. Shaniya Nicole Davis could be in danger here but I pray I am wrong. I hope they can find her soon.
If you have any information regarding this abduction, call the Fayetteville Police Department immediately at (910) 433-1856, or call 911.
Please remember all the others too in your prayers, including Caylee Anthony, Adji Desir, Haleigh Cummings, Somer Thompson, Elizabeth Olten, Masaraha Ross, Alex Mercado and Rebecca Marie Allen, Sandra Cantu and all the others that I can’t name off right now. Forgive me if I can’t name all of them, but I include them all as a group in my prayers.
I have been accused of using certain names in my articles for the wrong reasons but I can assure you my only motive is so these children are not forgotten. My heart aches for each and every one of them. Please help me in keeping their names in print, they deserve to be remembered and not put on the back burner and forgotten. God bless you all!

What a beautiful little girl! Hope she is found safe and alive soon.
Thank you for your article, Jan. Something is not right regarding her disappearance. Hopefully, LE can get to the bottom of this quickly.
Jan, if anyone has been reading your articles for any length of time, they should know that you are compassionate about missing and/or murdered children and you are a voice for them like so many of us.
Also, you and Simon have kept Haleigh’s name “out there” when main stream media has not consistently covered the story. Thanks for your hard work and efforts!
Thank you, Jan. I, also, pray everyday for all our missing, abused and murdered little angels. I can’t even fathom why anyone would question your motives for writing articles about them all. You have never given any reason of doubt, in my eyes, as to your efforts in keeping these cases in the public’s eye. Your thoughts and actions have always been to help them and your passion should be applauded. You have my utmost respect and admiration for your continuous fight to keep these angels from fading into the background.
Drugs were found in the home previously? Kid probably had an accidental OD and mom/bf took her elsewhere to dump the body. This poor child will NOT be found alive. Sad that kids are often less safe with their own families thn they would be if they DID wander outside. Prayers for this angel.
She is a Beautiful child, and so close.. We are watching for her..
It’s as if this is becoming a trend/fad. Will pray for her and all the other missing little ones!!!
thank you for the article jan. i pray she is found safe.
I know there will always be another missing child. It just seems like children are being murdered, kidnapped or exploited, more than ever before. It’s really sad, when children today appear to have a greater chance of being abused, kidnapped or murdered, than living a full and productive life. It is utterly ridiculous that children appear to be of lesser value than an abused or neglected animal! Something is terribly wrong with this whole picture!
I hope and pray that little Shaniya is found alive and well very soon!
Thank you Jan for being such a wonderful advocate for missing and exploited children!
Shaniya is sos beautiful. I am afraid this poor little angel has met her demise. Pray for the children.
I can think of several scenarios based on the facts we know in this case, none of them good. I will continue to pray for all the missing. Thanks again, Jan, for keeping them in the public’s eye.
They now have a suspect in custody. Clarence Coe who is a convicted felon with a long record according to the NCDOC website. The girl remains missing.
I knew this little girl and it breaks my heart that she may not be found alive. I just hope that her family can have peace. There are a lot of worried people out there praying for her to turn safe, but with each passing moment my hope for that to happen fades.
this is crazii that little girl is so pretty
i hope that man gets in trouble and cathces life in prsion because he look like he would do something like that!!!
he needs life forever and 2 days!!
WHY DID THE MOTHER PUT HER ON THE COUCH IS WHAT I DONT UNDERSTAND AN SHE IS A LITTLE GIRL AT THAT NOT BY HERSELF SHE IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD.

The is the boyfriend of the girls mother and was spotted taking her out of the trailer park!
He was arrained and pleaded Not Guilty.
This war against our children needs to stop, they are being terrorized by maniacs with no regard to human life. Whether it is familiar face or a complete stranger anyone who would do harm to a child is a maniac, lack of empathy creates monsters. These beautiful children are vanishing before our very eyes.

OMG the moment I heard about this little preciously adorable little child I fell on my knees and I asked my Heavenly Father to surround her with angels. My mind wont let me stop thinking of the what this baby could be going through or what she has already been through. That thug holding her in the elevator looks like he is such a pervert. Who could get pleasure out of hurting a baby. They are so sick. God please find Shaniya, please take her out of the custody of these monsters. Please in Jesus Name. Amen!! Shaniya we love you. Lock these animals in a prison cell may they met with all manner of harm, since they enjoy pain so much.
I am saddened by some of the grumbling I have been reading about this babies father. Please, try to have compassion. He obviously loves this angel and has raised her and protected her all her life. He thought her mom was straightened out now and was giving his baby a chance to have time with her. You can bet he regrets it and blames himself but please how can we set out here and condemn him?? He wasn’t the unfit parent! He isn’t the one that sold her! He has shown a tremendous amount of grief, lets have a heart for him. I don’t get how the innocent parents are the one’s that get crucified in these child abuse cases. JMO
Why can’t they use sodium Pentathol in these cases since he will not cooperate? You hear people being beaten all the time over stupid traffic violations. If ever there was a time that someone needed a beating it’s right now. They said this guy turned himself in??? After he passed the girl off?? What is the point in that? Now he’s not cooperating. It almost makes me think it’s to buy time. What is the motive in that?? Human Traffickers have this down to a science, every minute counts, that is why I think they should be able to use sodium Pentathol (truth serum) so they can get to this girl fast. We have to change these laws they do not protect the innocent. I’ve been praying all day long that God protects her and delivers her from this evil. Please pray for this child. I think this trafficker that they have in custody, should get life in prison or death if this child is not found safely.
This is so very sad. And to believe that anyone could hurt a child and the thought that her mother has something to do with it. I am so SORRY for anyone (her father) and other who knew Shaniya Davis. May the lord bless you in your time of loss. Shaniya Davis is with the lord and he will give her wings now. So very very sorry. I have never wished bad on anyone but I hope Shaniya Davis’ mother and who ever eles was involved with BURN IN HELL but before that while in jail they get everything they have coming—beaten everyday til they beg to die for hurting a child and to think you were suppose nto be her mother—but only by blood !!!
I´m so sadden to her of another child gone. My
prayers are with the father and family. To who ever brought harm to this fallen angel, may they burn in HELL.
My heart truly goes out the the family oo this angel. It’s sad to know that there are heartless individuals on this earth. No child deserves to go through what that angel endured. Weeping may endure for a moment but joy cometh in the morning. I pary that GOD strengtens the family and especially the father. Only GOD knows why he chose to call that angel home and it’s just sad that it happened in this form. This family will be kept in my prayers.
i am so sorry what happen to shaniya we will always support the little girl and she will always be remebered and missed.
Just watched Nancy Grace and was informed that the elevator guy did it. I thought we were looking for a 3rd guy. Hit me with an idiot stick. I want her family she WAS LOVED BY ALL!!!!!!
