Summary
<p>Carlee Russell calls 911, telling the operator that she sees a toddler walking down the side of an Alabama freeway. </p> <p>When police arrive, there's no toddler and Russell is gone. Her car, however, is still parked along the highway. The door is open and the car is running. Forty-nine hours later, Russell returns home, telling investigators in a brief interview that she was abducted by a man with orange hair and a woman. </p> <p>As the investigation continued, police find some “really strange” internet searches in the hours before she vanished, such as the cutoff age for an AMBER Alert. </p> <p>Now Russell admits via a statement from her lawyer that there was no toddler or abduction. </p> <p>Joining Nancy Grace today:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/theshelnuttlawfirm/">James Shelnutt</a> – Attorney – The Shelnutt Law Firm, P.C.; 27-year Atlanta Metro Area Major Case Detective and Former S.W.A.T.
