    Good evening, America, this is ‘Eye on America’ and I’m Charlotte Hope.
    Tonight, breaking news out of Orlando, Florida. The remains of the child recovered last week in a wooded area just fifteen houses down from the Brown home are indeed those of missing toddler Deeley Brown! Tonight Fibber McMom remains in jail after having been charged two months ago with the murder of her baby girl, little Deeley Brown.
    Until today the whereabouts of Baby Deeley have remained a mystery, along with so many other mysteries in the heartbreaking and baffling case of tiny Deeley Margaret Brown who was last seen alive on June fifteenth, two-thousand eight.
    Following a frantic nine-one-one call from her Grandma Margaret Brown, who after waiting thirty-one days for her daughter Denise to return home from her supposed business trip, finally realized that her granddaughter, little Deeley, was missing, and had been missing, according to her daughter, Denise, for thirty-one days. A frantic Grandma Margaret made a long overdue nine-one-one call and the search for Baby Deeley began in earnest.
    Young single mother Denise, it tur ned out, had been living a life of lies, telling her parents and friends that she was employed at Universal Studios, telling them also that Baby Deeley was cared for during her days and nights of work by a mysterious so-called ‘Manny the nanny’, real name Manuel Noriega.
    It turned out, America, that there was no job and there was no Manny the nanny either. It turned out that the only thing the police could verify in Denise Brown, Fibber McMom’s, tale was this: Baby Deeley was indeed missing.
    Arrested initially for giving false statements to the police, Fibber was bailed out by flamboyant bounty hunter Rick Daley who initially believed that Denise Brown might be lying about some things but not about her contention that Baby Deeley was still alive, alive somewhere, America.
    Rick Daley was quickly disillusioned regarding his hopes of finding little Deeley alive and became one of Denise Brown’s most vocal critics within days of posting her bond. That same week Fibber McMom was re-arrested for theft charges relating to her spending spree following little Deeley’s disappearance, and hauled back to jail. Meantime , America, Rick Daley joined the growing number of searchers who were no longer looking for a live child. Within days in this head-spinning case an anonymous donor stepped forward and posted a new bond and out comes Fibber, free as a lark, to return home to the mother who stands behind her every lie, and to her father whose silence on this matter, we, here at ‘Eye on America’, can only speculate on.
    But wait, hold the farm, the Orange County Prosecutor’s Office has not been idle during this time. With hits from cadaver dogs in the back of Fibber’s car and in the Brown yard, as well as startling photos of a happy Fibber out partying away , complete with a tattoo proclaiming ‘The beautiful life’, and this occurring during the time her baby was supposedly being held by a kidnapper, America! Well, those whose job it is to protect and serve were saying, ‘Hold on a minute here, we have a strong circumstantial case,’ and off to assemble a grand jury they went.
    An indictment for murder was returned and so was Fibber, right back to jail. Meantime, a devastated Keith Brown and an increasing ly vituperative Margaret Brown, as well as an irrational Seel Brown, continued to assure America that Deeley is coming home any minute now and that Denise will soon be exonerated.
    But it’s not to be, America. A beautiful baby girl’s life was ended and then she was tossed away like garbage and left to rot fifteen houses down from the Brown home, and tonight, America, it is my sad duty to confirm that Baby Deeley is indeed dead.
    There’s still more breaking news tonight , though. Inside sources confirm that the Browns - Keith and Margaret - were given this news in Los Angeles earlier today where they have been on an ABC’s all-expenses-paid press junket to tout Fibber’s innocence and the certain return of Baby Deeley.
    Our sources tell us that , when made aware of the identity of the remains found last week, Margaret Brown asked ABC to put her and Keith up at the Boca Ritz to avoid further media attention. America, a more cynical woman than me might ask, do you mean to avoid unpaid media attention?
    Still, America, we all
