Chatham County Police Chief Jeff Hadley speaks to reporters in Savannah, Ga., on Thursday, Oct. 13, 2022, about the investigation into the suspected death of missing toddler Quinton Simon. Hadley said investigators believe the 20-month-old boy is dead based on interviews and evidence collected since the child was reported missing on Oct. 5. by police shifted Tuesday to a landfill outside Savannah where investigators planned to start sifting through trash for the child's remains.
Police began searching for Quinton on Oct. 5 when his mother called 911 and said the boy had gone missing from his playpen. After more than a week spent searching the house and surrounding neighborhood, Hadley announced Thursday that police believe the child is dead. “We want justice for Quinton just like everybody else,” the police chief said,"and we want to find his remains so we can give him a proper resting place.”
Police reports and court documents show there was turmoil in recent weeks between the child’s mother and grandmother, Billie Jo Howell, who had legal custody of him and an older sibling. Quinton, his mother and his mother’s boyfriend lived with Howell.
