Stolen by My Mother: The Kamiyah Mobley Story

Hey, Lexi.

What's wrong?

What's wrong?

Everything.

I thought I knew exactly who I was.

Then now I find out... I ain't got a damn clue?

What you talkin' about?

It's just totally just... messed up.

You wanna talk about it?

No.

This is my mama, Gloria,

and I love her with my whole heart.

Everyone was excited about this pregnancy,

especially my grandparents...

...and my mom's boyfriend, Charles.

A man ain't a man till he has a child of his own.

Oh, my God.

Oh, Lord, help me.

My mom kept her miscarriage a secret.

She kept going to work at the veterans' center

and pretending she was still pregnant.

Oh, hey, Gloria.

I thought you'd be on maternity leave already.

When's that baby coming out, girl?

-Hey, girl... -Hey.

You're gonna hurt the baby, Charles.

Okay, when's my baby gonna come, huh?

Soon, Charles.

Mm...

This baby gonna make a whole new man outta me, right?

I hope so.

Mm.

Okay, I gotta go to work.

All right, all right.

She's beautiful.

Yes, ma'am, she sure is.

Her name Kamiyah.

I've been doing this a long time,

and I can see how tired you are.

Give her to me.

Yes, there we go.

Yes...

Hello...

Hello.

Yes...

How about I help you get into a clean gown, hmm?

Come on.

There we go.

Okay.

There we go.

Thank you.

Let's get you back into bed.

Yeah, that's better, right?

-Thank you. -Yeah, you're welcome.

Up, up, up...

There we go.

Okay, you want to drink a whole lot of water.

I'm tryin'.

You see that right there?

That's what you gonna have to do.

Nursing will get easier.

The more she sucks,

the more your milk will come down.

Really?

I felt like she ain't getting nothin'

when they put her on my breast after she came out.

Here, let me see.

Come here, shh, shh, shh, shh...

Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh...

There we go, there we go.

I know you hate to be away from her

even for a second,

but we keep the thermometers in the nursery.

I'll be gone 15 minutes,

and then I'ma bring her right back,

and y'all can keep getting to know each other, okay?

-Okay. -All right?

In the meantime, new mother,

get yourself some rest, okay?

I'll be right back.

Okay.

Oh, there she is!

Hold on, now, grandmama just got here.

I don't wanna wait another minute

to see my grandbaby.

Oh, my god...

She's gorgeous.

Just look at those lashes.

You know, it's killing Craig that he can't be here.

This baby is his new start.

Aw, give her to me.

Wait, um...

I'll be right back.

Just...

Um, hello, uh, did a nurse just bring my baby down there?

This is Shanara Mobley.

Yes, I'll hold.

She's not down there.

They're checking the other nursery.

My... my baby.

My baby!

Yo, yo, what's up, what's up?

What's up, bruh?

Lookin' sporty, bruh, huh?

What's up, cuz?

Hey, man, it ain't Sunday.

Craig, have a seat.

A'ight, what's up, Chap?

You've been blessed with a baby daughter.

Whoo!

Ha ha!

Craig, your baby girl is missing.

Y'all gotta let me out.

Get me up outta here.

I gotta be there for Shanara,

and my mama!

Come on, Chap.

What the-- Come on! Bruh! Chap!

Jacksonville Central Hospital

remains on lockdown tonight

as dozens of sheriff's officers

and FBI agents

comb through every corner of the large medical complex

for a missing baby girl.

Kamiyah Mobley disappeared from her mother's arms

when she was just hours old,

making every mother's worst nightmare a reality

for this young mother, Shanara Mobley.

Please!

Please bring my baby back to me!

If you don't have no kids...

I mean, how do you think I feel?

That's our first child! -

That could be my only child!

Please, please, please, bring my baby back to me!

Kamiyah is mine!

Bring Kamiyah back to me!

I don't do nothin' to nobody!

I can't wait. I'm sure she'll...

Oh, here she is! - Girl!

Oh, my god!

Oh, Gloria.

Oh... -My goodness.

Watch her head.

Oh, look at how beautiful.

She looks just like you did.

Poor girl.

Daddy.

Oh, my god, look at her.

Sit down there, Mama.

Hi, sweetness. Oh...

You didn't have to do this by yourself.

Why didn't you call anybody?

I mean, I went into labor at work.

I mean, it's 80 miles from here.

I didn't have no insurance,

so they rushed me to the ER,

and she just popped out.

She's an angel, isn't she?

Yes, she is.

Charles know he got a beautiful daughter?

Yeah, I mean, I called.

I... I left word.

Somebody will tell him.

But you know how it is, for most men, though.

They don't feel like a baby is real

until she can fetch his slippers.

Tell me.

Ain't that right?

Come on.

Oh, she is so beautiful.

Give her to me.

Oh, my gosh.

Look at the baby.

That's my baby.

I love you so much, baby.

Mama loves you so much.

The FBI has run down over 3,000 leads...

I want the kidnappers to know

we are determined to find that baby.

All those people out there,

talking about us,
