Baby Lisa Missing: Anonymous Source Reveals Timeline of Abduction
News reports broke last night that quoted an anonymous source close to the parents of Lisa Irwin who dispensed information with police that the child was most likely abducted within a four-hour window.
Jeremy Irwin and Debbie Bradley publicly shared that they discovered their daughter was missing Oct. 3 around 3:45 a.m., and called the police 15 minutes later.
Between 10:30 p.m. and 3:45 a.m., Bradley was sleeping and Irwin had been at work, but a next-door neighbor said she kept an eye on the house until 11:30 p.m. – revealing that Lisa was most likely abducted in a four-hour period between then and when the father returned, according to KCTV5.

Since then, the story reached national headlines, authorities have received countless tips about Lisa’s potential whereabouts, and police have followed a number of leads.
When the 10-month-old was first reported missing, her mother, Bradley, was one of the first to be questioned by police, although she was not declared a suspect.
The recent revelations, however, provide some valuable information that could help investigators narrow the events that lead to the abduction.
According to the timeline of Lisa’s disappearance, Bradley and a next-door neighbor, Samantha Brando, sat on the porch drinking wine and smoking until 10:30 p.m.
Bradley previously set her daughter to sleep in a crib four hours earlier, claiming she had a cold. The mother was unable to recall whether she checked in on Lisa before she went to sleep around 10:30 p.m.
Brando, however, revealed that she stayed up outside the house until 11:30 p.m., talking with another neighbor, which suggests that the kidnapper could not have sneaked into the house before then.
Jeremy Irwin was working on an electrical job at Starbucks until the early morning on Oct. 4, and returned home at 3:45 a.m. He found the front door unlocked and the lights on, but did not immediately find anything suspicious.
Irwin woke Bradley and they checked Lisa’s crib and discovered that she was missing. As the family’s three cell phones had also been stolen, Irwin was forced to call the police from his work phone.
The police have not released the 911 phone call that reported Lisa's abduction, citing that the case is an ongoing investigation and such information should be kept confidential for now.
