Missing Joslin Smith | More people join search for six-year old girl who has been missing for a week


It’s been a week since six-year-old Joslin Smith went missing from her home in Saldanha Bay.

Joslin Smith’s mother reported her missing after she returned from work and couldn’t find the little girl.

Police say the child was left in the care of the mother’s boyfriend. An integrated police task team, community members and several…

  1. Corbin August. You seem like a "promising journalist"…but perhaps don't ask the leader of the search what their NEXT MOVES are and WHERE THEY ARE GOING TO SEARCH on LIVE TV?? Do you even watch tv? You think this isn't the most obvious place a perpetrator would try to find out who knows what? Jeez, well done you chop.

  2. Police take that boyfriend and put pressure on him How far can a little girl go Whos that boyfriend Why is he not questioned The police must pull up their socks I also have daughter's and this makes me angry🤬

  3. The police needs to pull up there socks and start searching for the killer of Joslin Smith and should stop with delaying tactics.

    There are unfortunately only two possibilities for Joslin Smith;

    1. The mother's boyfriend, raped and killed her.

    2. A male between 10-30 lured her away into a shack and raped and killed her.

    But considering both scenarios and the number of days Joslin Smith is no longer alive, the police know that a search in a community like this after 3 days is no longer for a person but a body.

    Possibility 1;

    Mothers boyfriend;

    – It is unlikely that it is the bf as people would have recognized him if he was walking around with her as this is a densely populated area with a lot of unemployed, chances are if he did walk around on this day with or without Joslin the neighbours would have been able to point this out.

    – So the story of him saying he was home the whole day is very likely.

    Possibility 2;

    A male between 10-30 took her.

    2.1. Joslin was most probably lured away by a young male between 10-15yrs old. As Joslin was described as quite outspoken she would not have gone off with an older male or someone unfamiliar to her.

    2.2. Joslin was lured away by an older male between 16 and 30 years old. If this was the case this was simply a crime of opportunity, the scenario would have been a male walking past the child while she was playing alone or walking somewhere. To persuade her to go with them he would have told her her mom told her to come fetch her. Joslin and her mother have a distinct look; anyone who frequented the area would have known Joslin was Kelly's child. This would have been the pretext.

    Body location;

    – If we consider possibility 2.1

    > The body should be between the hills between the bushes, look for boys' play dens.

    – If we consider possibility 2.2

    > The body is most likely located to the north of Middelpos, in one of those shacks located behind Govan Mbeki street

    NB: The body should be approximately 200m from the back of the houses in Middlepos Drive.
