Nine Year Old Brutally Murdered in Indiana

Honeo · Dec 27, 2011

They were his 'three little princesses.' One month before he allegedly bashed 9-year-old Aliahna Lemmon in the head with a brick and then hacked her to pieces with a handsaw, Michael Plumadore posted a photo of her standing alongside her sisters. On his Facebook page, he has several chilling pictures of the disabled girl who captured national attention when she went missing from a trailer park in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Thursday night. She and her two sisters were staying with Plumadore, 39, at his trailer while her mother recovered from the flu. He had slipped into the family's confidences as a trusted friend after he moved in with the children's grandfather. The day after Christmas, he calmly admitted to detectives that he had committed an unimaginably horrific crime: Brutally killing young Aliahna and then dismembering her body so he could dispose of it.

He led detectives to a dumpster at a nearby business where they found pieces of her torso, arms and legs that had been cut up with a hack saw and stuffed into garbage bags. In his freezer, an even more grizzly find -- little Aliahna's head, hands and feet. 'Itâ€™s disturbing... This is one of those things that you will never forget,' Sheriff Kenny Fries told the Mail Online.

In 30 years of law enforcement, he said, he has never seen anything like what happened to Aliahna. And he hopes he never does again. Plumador's Facebook photos reveal that he spent time with the girls at a riverside park in Fort Wayne and was at their home, as well. One especially horrifying picture was of the three girls leaning against a railing labeled simply 'Three Princesses,' which was uploaded in late November. All of the pictures were in an online album called 'The kids.'

Sheriff Fries said detectives have a good idea why he killed Aliahna, but the lawman would not discuss Plumador's motive. Plumadore cracked during his third interview with police. Detectives had spoken with him twice before and he had given no indication that he was responsible for Aliahna's disappearance, sheriff Fries said. The bogus story he first gave to detectives was that he had seen the girl sleeping in his cheer at 6am Thursday when he got up to buy a cigar at a nearby convenience store. He was awakened when her mother called him at 10am and realized she was gone, he claimed. He told police he thought that she had gone to her mother so she wasn't reported missing until almost 9pm Thursday.

Sheriff Fries said he and his detectives didn't believe his story but they had nothing put his word to go on. Until Monday. The day after Christmas, detectives 'finally hit the right chords' and Plumadore came clean.
He said used a brick to beat Aliahna in the back of the head multiple times. He then wrapped her body in several garbage bags and put it her his freezer, according to court documents. Despite the confession, the little girl's grandmother, Amber Story, stood by Plumadore, a close family friend. 'I don't care what anybody says. Mike did nothing to her. He loves those girls,' she told the News-Sentinel. Plumadore, who had been watching Aliahna and her sisters before she was reported missing late Friday, is scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday. Earlier Monday, FBI agents descended on the rundown mobile home park in Fort Wayne where Aliahna lived. The park is a known haven for registered sex offenders, though Plumadore isn't on Indiana's registered sex offenders list. He has a criminal record in Florida and North Carolina that includes convictions for trespassing and assault. More than 100 emergency workers searched Saturday for Aliahna around the mobile home park, where she was last seen. Sheriff's deputies, police officers and firefighters fanned out in the area around the trailer park where she disappeared, searching on ATVs and on foot. An airplane circled the area. But Sheriff Ken Fries called off the hunt for Sunday, Christmas Day, and ordered only limited searches of area ponds on Monday.

Sheriff Fries told the Mail Online searchers exhausted every possible hiding place in a one-mile radius around the trailer where she disappeared.
He didn't see any good in using the manpower to lead further widespread hunts for the girl, who was feared dead as federal authorities took over.
About a half-dozen officers in black windbreakers, several of whom identified themselves as FBI agents subsequently arrived, some with search dogs were seen at a nearby storage facility. Agents at the scene wouldn't say why the FBI was involved. An agency spokesman did not immediately return phone calls and e-mails seeking comment. According to a state website, 15 registered sex offenders live at the mobile home park that numbers about two dozen homes. 'Children don't just walk away during Christmastime,' Aliahna's step-grandfather, David Story, said Monday afternoon.

Aliahna's mother, Tarah Souders, 28, told The Journal Gazette earlier on Monday that her daughter had vision and hearing problems and suffered from attention deficit disorder and emotional problems. She also has a history of sleepwalking, family members said. Aliahna and her sisters were staying at a family friend's nearby home because their mother had been sick with the flu and Aliahna's stepfather works at night and sleeps during the day. Plumadore told the newspaper Sunday that he left the three girls in his mobile home about 6am Friday and went to a gas station about a mile away to buy a cigar. Authorities have said the store's surveillance video shows him there about that time. 'I had dead-bolted the door,' he said. 'When I got back, all the girls was here.' He said he smoked his cigar and went back to sleep, then woke up about 10am when Aliahna's mother called. After that call, he realised the door to the home was unlocked and that Aliahna was gone. He said Aliahna's six-year-old sisters told him Aliahna had left with her mom.

Plumadore said it wasn't until he talked with Aliahna's mother at about 8:30pm that they realised she was missing and police were notified. Tarah Souders said miscommunication between the two of them caused the delay in determining that Aliahna had vanished. 'She's never wandered off,' Souders said. 'She's never done anything like this before.' Elizabeth Watkins, 52, who has lived at the park for six months with her four-year-old granddaughter, said it's well-known that several sex offenders live in the neighbourhood. 'It's scary,' she said. 'I don't know how a parent could leave their child alone.'
