Disabled N.C. girl vanishes; stepmom questioned

     A young girl with hearing loss in both of her ears and a prosthetic leg from a battle with cancer dissapeared last Saturday from Hickory, North Carolina. Her stepmother was later arrested in the same day on unrelated charges, and those close to her believe she could somehow be responsible for Zhara's disappearance. Her old neighbors say that the stepmom had a quick temper, and would often punish the child for no reason. The child's own father believes that the stepmother could have somthing to do with his daughter's disappearance.
   
      I think that the police should really come down hard on this woman. She may be a stepmother, but she has no right to abuse or hit a child. The neighbors of the girl say that they stepmother acted odd that saturday and if she had something to do with Zhara's disappearance, I'm sure she did act odd. Police say they found a tree burning in their backyard with what could be clothing hanging from tree limbs. That is certainly suspicious enough for me to seriously consider that the stepmother could inadvertanly be responsible for this little girl's disappearance. Her stepmother never seemed to care until she was close to tears when Zhara was fitted with her hearing aids. Zhara had lost hearing in both of her ears and her left leg from chemotherapy because of bone cancer. It had a deep impact on her father. Why should her father have to suffer the loss of his little girl this way, when he was so close to losing her in cancer's death grip?
