The longer the search goes, the more suspicious it all seems.
“If she could hear me now I would want to say to her: ‘I love you, we love you, there’s a lot of people concerned about you,’” said Vanessa, a relative of the girl.
Each day the family gets more concerned they’ll never see 13-year-old Na’Ziyah Harris again.

“All that we can do with this time is hope that she is alive and she did run away,” her relative said. “However, she’s made no contact with anyone for us to be able to even believe that that is true.”
Two family members spoke with FOX 2 under anonymity, we’ll call them “Vanessa” and “Trish” – they’re estranged from Na’Ziyah’s immediate family, and guardian, who she lives with, on Detroit’s east side.

The fracturing of this family started when Vanessa and Trish suspected, abuse at Na’Ziyah’s home – they reported the concerns to Children’s Protective Services.
“If I had to guess, seven to 10 times over the course of the last eight months, eight months to a year,” said Vanessa
But – Na’Ziyah and her 16-year-old brother, remained in the home under the adoptive care of their grandma – who spoke out at a press conference this week.

Before she went missing on January 9th, “Trish” said she knew she’d be the next missing child out of Detroit. an eerie omen that came true.
FOX 2: “Do you think that there’s foul play in her disappearance?”

The Detroit Lions are facing a significant dilemma regarding a player selected in the first-round of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Cornerback Terrion Arnold is facing multiple felony charges stemming from an alleged robbery and kidnapping plot in Florida.

When drafted, the former Alabama Crimson Tide defensive back signed a four-year, $14,343,710 contract. The agreement included a $7,251,788 signing bonus and an average salary of $3,585,928 annually.
So at this point, Arnold has been paid more than half of his contract.
This year, Arnold was set to earn a base salary of $1,273,974, which included a roster bonus of $825,000. His cap hit is $3,911,921 this year and has dead cap hit of $9,127,816.
If the Lions decide to cut the 23-year-old, they would be on the hook for dead cap costs, but could in the future recoup monies based on the league’s conduct policy.

According to Spotrac, “Lions Terrion Arnold has 2-years, $4.8 M (guaranteed) remaining on his rookie contract, plus a potential 5th-year option for the 2028 season. Any suspension stemming from a violation of the league’s conduct polict would void the guarantees.”

In the short term, cutting Arnold is not significantly beneficial. The organization could save money in the future depending on if his decisions are deemed to have breech the clauses in his first NFL contract.
Detroit has options at the cornerback position if Arnold is no longer a part of the organization. Nick Whiteside, Rock Ya-Sin, Keith Abney and Ennis Rakestraw are all in the mix to earn playing time opposite of veteran D.J. Reed.
“It’s just the depth. Like, you’ve got guys that have played in games and that’s what you want. It’s not like you’re guessing on what you’re getting. You know what you’re going to get from those guys and so another year in the system, another year competing, he’s (Whiteside) going to be better,” said defensive backs coach Deshea Townsend. “And just that’s the thing about the NFL, you got to have guys who go out there and compete and he’s another one that’s capable of playing and it’s going to push everybody else in the room.”
Currently, the team has $19,338,873 (17th) available in cap space, based on the top-51 players on the roster.
