Unfortunately a terrible update as it turns out the victim in this case is Harrison's own 2-year-old daughter. Apparently Harrison and his wife, Amy, had an argument, which lead to Amy exiting the car and calling a friend from Greeneville to pick her up (Also just to be technical the couple is actually from NC despite this being a Mississippi case so I'm not sure if they meant Greeneville NC or Mississippi). James apparently exhited the vehicle as well later. The 2-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son of Amy's (James was the stepfather of the boy) were still in their vehicle. The children managed to get out on their own, but while the boy was later found alive, the daughter was found dead from hypothermia. Amy has already been arrested on child neglect charges. She also allegedly did not report her children missing for an extended period of time. According to the new article I'm posting, James Harrison may suffer from mental illness. He is also a type 1 diabetic and is without medicine. His cell phone has not been on since Thursday . www.wapt.com/article/manhunt-underway-after-child-found-dead/35306904#

Frustraingly, I could find no updates on this case since January.
Logic would say there's no way James survived in the mental and weather condition he was in, but some sort of update would be nice.
Yet another frustrating case of releasing information to the public saying it's an urgent manner and then not following through and letting anyone know what's going on after the fact.

Still can’t find anything (this is why Harrison didn’t make my 2021 list since I had no confirmation). Very frustrating.
