Mother Held for Hiding Two Sisters | Atlanta News

Lakesha Brown, wanted for obstruction in Paulding County, was arrested after police found her inside a sweltering trailer with two young sisters—four-year-old Zola and her eleven-month-old sister Norah—along with minimal cooling and no restroom. The girls were taken to the hospital and are in good health. Brown allegedly misled investigators, claiming no newborn was present, though she had not been pregnant. The mother, who met Brown through Facebook, left her daughters with her on a Saturday and couldn’t retrieve them the next day, as Brown falsely claimed they were in a hospital after a crash. This prompted a missing child alert. Brown also faces a 2021 kidnapping charge in Alabama for the disappearance of a four-day-old boy, for which she was released on bond but now has an outstanding warrant for failing to appear in court. She’s in Fulton County custody and will be transferred to Paulding County to face the obstruction charge. Investigators are still probing whether anyone assisted Brown and are examining a white truck linked to the case.
