Bradley Lockhart, Shaniya Davis’ Father, Pled For Girl’s Return in Vain
November 17, 2009Bradley Lockhart, father of 5-year-old Shaniya Davis, appeared with his sister Carey Lockhart-Davis on CBS’ “Early Show” Monday to beg for the girl’s safe return.
But their tearful plea was in vain; After a massive, nearly week-long search effort, Shaniya Davis was found dead Monday afternoon in Sanford, N.C., about 30 miles from her Fayetteville home. Sanford is 42 miles southwest of Raleigh.
“Drop her off at Wal-Mart, anywhere, I don’t care – just so somebody can find her and bring her back to the people that love her,” her father Bradley Lockhart said Monday morning, hours before police found his daughter’s body.
“She’s a precious, little angel, full of joy,” he said. “A little reserved when you first meet her, but once she gets to know you, she just runs around, plays and won’t leave you alone.”
“I just ask that, at this time, please just let her go,” said Shaniya’s aunt, Carey Lockhart-Davis. “She doesn’t deserve this. Have a kind heart.”
