(Excerpt from interview or article) - (www.northwestohio.com 06/18/13): Baby Elaina's injuries revealed and national TV interviews uncover new information "The source, who only wanted to be identified as Frank, is the same man who provided WNWO with exclusive surveillance video showing Elaina and her mother the day before the child was last seen, June 2. Frank, who has remained anonymous until now, said he was looking to release the information so that the public could hear what Elaina's mother says happened. It was after Frank gave that information to investigators that Angela Steinfurth was arrested for child endangerment, for which she remained jailed on Monday night." "[Elaina's mother] told me about the baby having a black eye, a bump on the head and just a little bit of dry blood around the nostril. But I was like well what's that all about...and she said that when she woke up the baby was like that...I said well why didn't you call ...take her to the hospital or call the police or whatever...She told me that she asked Steven, the boyfriend, to check on the baby to make sure the baby was ok medically. The boyfriend overlooked the child and said she was going to be fine," Frank said of his conversation with Angela Steinfurth, Elaina's mother." WNWO YouTube Video

"FRANK," FRIEND OF ELAINA`S PARENTS (06/20/13): Yes, she said she woke up -- woke up and the baby already had a black eye and a little bit of dried blood on the nose and a bump on the head. My question is, Saturday when she was sitting at my house calling everybody and the brother asking for help, pleading and begging, arguing, no one wanted to help her at all. Her father said she was staying at his house, but the reason she didn`t stay at his house is because she`s a smoker and she wanted to... VELEZ-MITCHELL (06/20/13): Oh, oh you`re kidding me!

She wanted to make her relationship with her boyfriend work and so she told me... she was going to apologize to the boyfriend's mother for some of the things that she said to her... that way she would have a room for her and her children's head," Frank told WNWO exclusively." "Frank is the same source that released exclusive surveillance video to WNWO of baby Elaina and her mother, outside his East Toledo home, the day before the 18-month was last seen. Frank adds that Angela Steinfurth felt she had to apologize to Julie King, Steven King's mother and owner of the home where Elaina was last seen, because the two had argued enough that Angela would leave the home for nearly a month."

("That’s abnormal for that van to leave after 10 [at night]. They don’t usually do that,” Bolfa said on June 20.")

(Excerpt from interview or article) - (Nancy Grace Show 06/24/13): Bizarre Opening to Zimmerman Trial; Latest on Missing Child NANCY GRACE (06/24/13): I`m going to go to Clark Goldband. Clark, what about the mystery witness? CLARK GOLDBAND (06/24/13): We`ve just obtained a police report filed a few days after the baby went missing and there are some bombshells in this report. A witness called law enforcement claiming she saw the baby and the mom just a few hours before Elaina went missing between the hours of 7:00 and 9:45 at a gas station convenience store. Inside the convenience store, she says "The child appeared fine, didn`t speak." Mom was buying honeybuns and fruit punch and she`s positive it was the mom according to the police report because she claims the mom used to work at the gas station. So, Nancy, we were wondering if someone saw the child that day she was reported missing. According to this police report, a witness just may have. BRETT LAURICE (Investigative Reporter) (06/24/13): Yes, absolutely, Nancy. It`s a worker at a Gas-N-Go. And here`s what`s interesting about it is she said, at that time, you were right, it`s between 7:00 and about 9:45 in the morning she said she didn`t notice that the bay was injured. You know, we`ve been talking a lot about the bump on the head, the black eye, the blood around the nose. She didn`t notice that, and when she was questioned by police, and even questioned by some reporters, she said that`s something she definitely would have noticed. But mommy shows up, gets some grocery, pays for them with her food stamps card, and here`s the sort of the twist to all this, the cameras were down in the gas station. So none of this was caught on camera for police to review but police have that they have interviewed her as a witness.

And then she went back into the house... She said that if she gave me the baby to take with me, that my son wouldn`t -- she wouldn`t see it again because my son wouldn`t bring her back. She came back outside and told me that the baby wasn`t in the house, the baby was gone, someone took the baby. NANCY GRACE (06/17/13): And this is a very critical question.

Missing Elaina Steinfurth 18 Mo. Old

(Excerpt from interview or article) - (www.examiner.com 06/03/13): Elaina Steinfurth missing: Does mother know what happened? "Toledo, Ohio missing child alert: As of June 3, 2013 officials are still seeking Elaina Steinfurth, who vanished yesterday afternoon. The infant was reportedly last seen at the home of her mother Angela Steinfurth, but when the father arrived to pick his daughters up, the mother stopped him. He was given the older girl (his four-year-old daughter) but was not given access to little Elaina. He reported her missing when it was discovered that she was not at Angela's residence." "This case is immediately suspicious because the mother has clearly intervened somehow to keep the girl away from her father, but not the other. This indicates that she knew the child was missing, but how involved is she with the disappearance if at all? Officials have not confirmed whether or not this is a potential abduction, but scoured the neighborhood yesterday to no success."

She and her step-father, Richard Schiewe, said they came out the river at 9 a.m. and started to look for any clues police might have missed from their search of the area Wednesday. At about 10:20 a.m., police asked for additional assistance saying evidence needed to be bagged. At least two brown paper bags with evidence inside were taken from the scene."

The search started just after noon, and the nearly 75 volunteers were expected to finish at about 4 p.m. One group reported finding children's clothing – what looked to be a small sports shirt – in an East Toledo park. Police picked up the items, but there was no indication that it could be related to the case." "A Toledo police news conference earlier today shed little – if any – new light on the search for a missing 18-month-old girl. The girl's mother, Angela Steinfurth, 26, of 329 Valleywood Dr., was charged Wednesday night with child endangering. She was arraigned in Toledo Municipal Court today and ordered to be held in the Lucas County jail in lieu of $250,000." "During the news conference at the downtown police Safety Building, police Capt. Wes Bombrys said the investigation is ongoing. He said Mrs. Steinfurth told investigators Wednesday she knew the girl, Elaina Steinfurth, had been injured and that she did not seek medical attention. “The condition of the baby and the severity of the injuries, I can't tell ya,” the captain said. “We don't know. The location of Elaina, we still don't know, and that's why we say it's still an ongoing investigation. The captain said the investigation is still a missing persons case and has not been reclassified as a homicide. No other charges have been filed. The captain declined to comment on who possibly injured the young girl or if Mrs. Steinfurth had any role in injuring the toddler. Additional charges could be filed, he said.” “Interrogation interviews” led Mrs. Steinfurth to say she knew about the injuries and also prompted the searches on the east side, the captain said"

(Excerpt from interview or article) - (www.northwestohio.com 06/14/13): Exclusive: Video shows caring side of missing girl's mom " Less than 24 hours after the mother of a missing East Toledo toddler was arrested for child endangerment, an anonymous source released surveillance video that shows her in a different light." "According to the source, the video was taken the day before the toddler was reported missing. Angela Steinfurth can be seen kissing 18-month-old Elaina Steinfurth on the head and cradling her. The person that released the video (only to WNWO's Bryant Maddrick) says the surveillance images were captured at his home near Raymer Elementary School in East Toledo. The residence, where the video was taken, is about eleven blocks away from where Elaina Steinfurth was last seen on the afternoon of June 2. Though the source of the video did not want to be identified, WNWO was able to gain access to the person through a family member of Angela Steinfurth." "As of Thursday night, Angela Steinfurth was still behind bars after a judge ordered her held on $250,000 bond."

06-14-2013 Elaina's father still hopes she's alive.

"Mr. Schiewe said Mrs. Steinfurth told him her boyfriend, Steven King II, dropped the girl. She reportedly told her stepfather she does not know where the girl is."

"Police allege Mrs. Steinfurth, 26, of 329 Valleywood Dr. knew her daughter was seriously injured and required medical treatment, but never took the toddler for help. Court records indicate the injuries occurred “on or about June 2,” the day the tot went missing."

(Excerpt from interview or article) - (www.toledoblade.com 06/14/13): Mom arraigned as East Toledo search for Elaina continues "Instead of spending her day off from work sitting at home, Sheila Rogers decided to help a group of strangers look for a missing 18-month-old girl. “I couldn’t sit and read it on Facebook and watch it on TV and not do something,” she said Thursday just before joining about 75 volunteers, who fanned out across the east side looking for any signs of Elaina Steinfurth." "In the past 12 days, volunteers have searched, primarily in East Toledo. Another search set for noon Saturday is expected to expand to other neighborhoods, said organizer Kim Cundick. “It's about finding this baby and bringing her home,” said Ms. Cundick, who has helped in searches for Nevaeh Buchanan of Monroe and three brothers missing from Morenci, Mich. As the search for Elaina creeps up on its two-week mark, her father maintains hope the girl is alive. “I hope my daughter is OK and comes home,” he said. “It’s been 11 days and she’s still gone. I’m still in shock.”

Angela Mories Steinfurth Married June 2011

(Excerpt from interview or article) - (www.toledoblade.com 06/14/13): Who is Angela Steinfurth? "Who is Angela Jeane Steinfurth? The obvious: Angela is a 26-year-old lifelong Toledoan. She is the mother of two little girls -- Kylee, 4, and little Elaina. She is married to, but estranged from, Terry Steinfurth, Jr., 25. He goes by "TJ." "I feel like it's an embarrassment that Angela is my sister," said Mary Schiewe, 23. Angela, born Nov. 28, 1987, grew up without her father, said Mary, Angela's half-sister. She saw a picture of him once, but never knew him. Less than a year after Angela was born, her mother, Lisa Mories, married Richard Schiewe. "We never really had our mom in our life," Mary said. "It's always been my dad. When Anglea was 16, she tried to reconnect with her mother, and maintained contact, although they were never very close, Mary said." "The young couple, for the sake of their two young children, tried to work through their differences, but TJ said differing parenting techniques, the one-income household, and Angela's anxiety and depression caused rifts. In November, the two separated, but continued to live together until late February or early March for financial reasons."

"The photo was taken down a short time after it was posted. Steven's mother, Julie King, tells me it was taken down because it's not true. A later post did make that correction, stating, "...we have NOT been notified that he is wanted... Numerous comments were posted before the photo was taken down, some threatening to hurt Steven if he didn't say where the baby is." "Julie says she has asked her son directly if he had any involvement at all in the disappearance, he replied he knows nothing about what happened to Elaina. Steven reportedly picked up Angela & her two children in his mother's van late at night on June 1."

"Take a moment this Father's Day and say a prayer that Terry Steinfurth has a Father's Day he won't ever forget, that Elaina is back in his arms again where she belongs."

(Excerpt from interview or article) - (www.wspd.com 06/14/13): Father's Day In East Toledo "The first things you notice are the tattooed arms, then the baggy shorts and tank top, the ball cap worn sideways, and finally the rings. That's what I noticed I met Terry Steinfurth for the first time the other day on Federal Street. There's a lot more to him than that though and on some level we share a bond." "I spent time speaking with Terry in front of the house that is now the de facto headquarters for searchers, family, and friends. He has an easy way about him and no pretentions about who he is. He admits to being "young and stupid" in his younger days and doing some foolish things. He points to the tattoo of the zip code on his forearm as an example. But this isn't about what Terry did, this is about what Terry is now, and that is a loving father worried sick about his baby girl. Terry has spent countless hours searching homes, fields, streets, and alleys in a vain attempt to find baby Elaina. The very same streets, fields, and alleys he ran as a kid even though as he admits his dad told him not to because he'd get in trouble. Terry admits now that maybe his dad knew a thing or two back then after all."

When she did get thrown out, she actually turned the kids over to T.J. T.J. had had the girls for approximately a week. And you know, he really thought there was not going to be no big issues.

Frank, who has remained anonymous until now, said he was looking to release the information so that the public could hear what Elaina's mother says happened. It was after Frank gave that information to investigators that Angela Steinfurth was arrested for child endangerment, for which she remained jailed on Monday night." "[Elaina's mother] told me about the baby having a black eye, a bump on the head and just a little bit of dry blood around the nostril. But I was like well what's that all about...and she said that when she woke up the baby was like that...I said well why didn't you call ...take her to the hospital or call the police or whatever...She told me that she asked Steven, the boyfriend, to check on the baby to make sure the baby was ok medically.

JOE HEFFERNAN, TOLEDO POLICE DEPARTMENT (via phone) (06/18/13): Well, he`s obviously a very important person to the case. And we have been in constant communication with him. We`ve been able to talk to them. Every time that we`ve been over there to talk to him, he`s made no effort to hide from us. He`s available to us, or has been whenever we want to talk.

VELEZ-MITCHELL (06/18/13): Well, I just wanted -- we have the law enforcement on with us, Sergeant Joe Heffernan. And I want to stay with you, Mary. But I`ve got to ask Sergeant Joe about this. Sergeant Joe, here`s the family saying that she`s threatened, and that`s why she didn`t take the baby to the hospital. And she`s now pointing the finger at her ex-boyfriend. And again, the ex-boyfriend or his mom are invited on our show or their attorneys any time. He`s not considered a suspect right now, but what... SGT. JOE HEFFERNAN, TOLEDO POLICE DEPARTMENT (via phone) (06/18/13): All I`ve got to say to that is, I know, if my child was injured, threatened or not, I`m going to make sure that child gets proper medical attention. She obviously did not do that. That`s why she`s in jail right now for the child endangering. I think this is maybe a little bit of a red herring that`s going on with this whole, "I`m -- I was threatened" thing.

If it is true, in fact, she was threatened, ok, we could have helped you had you told a long time ago. You know, when you walked out on that front porch and said that baby was missing, you were protected right there, you had people all around you. And then she waits 11 days to tell us that the baby was injured. And then she tells her dad she knows what happened but she doesn`t know, you know, who took what or who took the baby. No, it just doesn`t sound right. It does not sound right. When they tell us that, you know, Terry and T.J., they`ve seen Steven, they`ve seen Angela, and they`ve seen Julie, the mother. They all walked back into the house. They were all in the house except for T.J. and Terry but nobody ever came back out with the baby. And now you`re talking like -- I`m not for sure, I think it`s 45 minutes or so, I`m not sure. The time frame of when they`re arguing over this baby.

Again, they was questioning my girlfriend. While I`m waiting outside, I was talking to Angela. She made it clear that, you know, the baby had a black eye, dried blood and a bump on the head. I asked her straight up, How did this happen? She said when she woke up, the baby was already like that. She asked the boyfriend. NANCY GRACE (06/18/13): All right, what did you say? You had to say something because I`d do a black flip if I heard that. FRANK (06/18/13): Right. I questioned her, Why didn`t you call an ambulance, you know, call the police? Be me, I`d be flipping out. She said she asked the boyfriend to check the baby and make sure the baby was OK. NANCY GRACE (06/18/13): Well, OK. What happened in the -- wait, wait, wait. So she wakes up, the baby`s there, the baby`s obviously injured. She asks the boyfriend, Look at the baby. He goes, Oh, she`s fine. Then what happens? How do we go from that point to the baby`s missing and we`re dredging the river? FRANK (06/18/13): Well, after they got -- the FBI got done questioning my girlfriend, I went in and I spoke to the FBI. And I told the FBI everything I knew. I told them about the bump and all that. They acted surprised, like that was new to them. They asked me where did I hear it. I said, I was just told this by Angela on my front porch. After the interview with the FBI, they brought Angela in, questioned her again for about an hour-and-a-half, and then took her back downtown for more additional questioning. Then they released her. And then she wound up going back downtown, like, a week later for more questioning, and that`s when she was arrested.

You are a friend of both Elaina`s parents. You`re a friend of Angela, the mom, and Terry Jr., called T.J., the dad. First of all, congrats, sir. I understand you broke up this fight. Tell us what they were fighting about, how this all unfolded, and what you saw. KENNY SMITH, FRIEND OF ELAINA`S PARENTS (via phone) (06/20/13): Well, he was talking to somebody. I don`t know who he was, honestly. And T.J. had overheard it, thought he said something wrong and said something to him, and that`s how it erupted. VELEZ-MITCHELL (06/20/13): How long have these two families, the mother and the father of this innocent 18-month-old child who`s now missing, how long have these two families been at war, Kenny? KENNY SMITH (06/20/13): Honestly, I`m not sure. I`m really not. VELEZ-MITCHELL (06/20/13): Well, I mean, it looked like they wanted to punch each other out. How did you calm them down?

Because at one point the guy in the red, which is the mother of the missing baby`s step-dad says something about, "I got a restraining order against you." What do you know? ANGIE GOMEZ, REPORTER, WNWO (via phone) (06/20/13): Jane, we looked into court records for both Terry Steinfurth Jr. and the father, Richard Schiewe, that had this exchange outside of court earlier today. And we found that both of them do have protection orders against each other. In fact, it specifically says that the protection order was issued because of stalking. And what we learned -- we thought that these protection orders may have been issued in the last few weeks when baby Elaina suddenly went missing, however, we found that these protection orders were issued back in January of this year. So it looks like the family has been at odds for some time now.

(Excerpt from interview or article) - (Jane Velez-Mitchell Show 06/20/13): Fight Erupts Outside Courtroom of Baby Elaina`s Mom; Search for Baby Elaina VELEZ-MITCHELL (06/20/13): Frank, thank you for joining us. And there is the video on your front porch, I understand. You have a lot to say. Basically, there`s a lot of critics of this lady here. I can tell you that there are reports the new "Toledo Free Press" says that several people in the area say they saw Angela slap her 18-month-old, scream at her 18-month-old. They claim Angela would shout "you little `B` word" at her 4-year-old and slap her across the face and leave baby Elaina all alone for hours at a time. You were her friend. What do you say, Frank? "FRANK," FRIEND OF ELAINA`S PARENTS (06/20/13): That is not true. From what I`ve seen, both T.J. and Angela were good parents. You know, I`ve never seen T.J. misabuse [SIC] these children nor Angela. She was a very good mother, you know. I feel everybody is already making her into this monster to where she`s guilty before she even goes into the courtroom. I lived beside them for, you know, about eight months, never seen them have an issue with their children. Yes, if they yelled at them, it`s because maybe they were running towards the road or pouring pop on their purse or cell phone or something. But they was never abused verbally or physically that I`ve seen since they lived beside us.

You are the father`s girlfriend. Can you give us the backstory of why there`s such bad blood between T.J., your boyfriend, the father of this child, and the mother`s family? "BECKY," BOYFRIEND OF TERRY STEINFURTH JR. (via phone) (06/20/13): She has been keeping the kids from T.J. For what reason I don`t know. Just to be vindictive towards him. There`s always been bad blood for some reason. He`s never liked T.J. He`s always had something against him. VELEZ-MITCHELL (06/20/13): And do you think that this child became a pawn in a battle between two warring families, essentially? "BECKY," BOYFRIEND OF TERRY STEINFURTH JR.

Usually when things are this dysfunctional sometimes, and I speak as a recovering alcoholic myself, that there`s alcohol or drugs involved. Do you know if she had a substance abuse problem? You admitted she liked to smoke, which is not good to do around the kids -- but anything else? Did she like to drink a lot or anything else? "FRANK," FRIEND OF ELAINA`S PARENTS (06/20/13): No. She smoked cigarettes once in a while. I did know of her smoking a joint, marijuana. Other than that, no substance abuse at all. VELEZ-MITCHELL (06/20/13): Well, you know, I`m not going to sit here and debate marijuana use, but is that something that could have endangered her children?

You are the girlfriend of the father of this child who came to pick the child up and she wouldn`t give the child over. Then she goes, "Oh my god. The baby is missing." You were actually with these kids up close and personal. Did you see signs of any kind of abuse before? Like cuts, bruises, bumps? "BECKY," BOYFRIEND OF TERRY STEINFURTH JR.

There was never a visit to check out the kids or check out the situation. We only let them go back with her for a visitation as they were living with us. And the agreement was she would not take them around Steven`s house or his family. She admitted to us that, you know, there were things going on with the kids that weren`t appropriate.

Clark, what about the mystery witness? CLARK GOLDBAND (06/24/13): We`ve just obtained a police report filed a few days after the baby went missing and there are some bombshells in this report. A witness called law enforcement claiming she saw the baby and the mom just a few hours before Elaina went missing between the hours of 7:00 and 9:45 at a gas station convenience store. Inside the convenience store, she says "The child appeared fine, didn`t speak." Mom was buying honeybuns and fruit punch and she`s positive it was the mom according to the police report because she claims the mom used to work at the gas station. So, Nancy, we were wondering if someone saw the child that day she was reported missing. According to this police report, a witness just may have. BRETT LAURICE (Investigative Reporter) (06/24/13): Yes, absolutely, Nancy. It`s a worker at a Gas-N-Go. And here`s what`s interesting about it is she said, at that time, you were right, it`s between 7:00 and about 9:45 in the morning she said she didn`t notice that the bay was injured. You know, we`ve been talking a lot about the bump on the head, the black eye, the blood around the nose. She didn`t notice that, and when she was questioned by police, and even questioned by some reporters, she said that`s something she definitely would have noticed. But mommy shows up, gets some grocery, pays for them with her food stamps card, and here`s the sort of the twist to all this, the cameras were down in the gas station. So none of this was caught on camera for police to review but police have that they have interviewed her as a witness.

"Battalion Chief Bryce Blair said the discovery did not warrant diving back into an area where the river bottom is "very junked up" with abandoned cars, shopping carts, trees, and other debris that pose a significant safety hazard.

"In light of the latest news, volunteer searchers began combing the bottom of the Maumee River using grapnel anchors to search for more evidence themselves.
