Father denied bail, daughter still missing

MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) - Brittany Robinson's mother, Tiana Hogue, said family and friends have been asking the same questions for more than four months:

"Have you heard from Brittany? Have y'all seen Brittany? What's going on with Brittany?” said Hogue.

Brittany Robinson, 14, has been missing since June 2012. Hogue said Brittany spent a few days with her father Demetric Hooper in June and that was the last time anyone saw her.

Hooper was arrested for interfering with custody and remains in jail after he was denied bail Tuesday, October 30.

Mobile County District Attorney Ashley Rich said opposing bail for a class C felony isn't common, but she said it is appropriate for this case, considering Hopper's history.

"We consider him to be a flight risk due to the fact he had fled the state of Alabama and he was apprehended months later, and we had to extradite him back to the state of Alabama. He did not come willingly," said Rich.

Hooper was just appointed an attorney, Joseph Dennis. He tells FOX10 news Hooper denies any involvement in Brittany's disappearance.

But Hogue's not convinced.

"I just want to know what his motives are. He has taken my child away from me," said Hogue.

KlaasKids director Brad Dennis said the organization is playing an active role in finding Brittany. KlaasKids is a national search center for missing children.

Dennis said the organization has not done any searching as of late and it's currently on standby, waiting for any new information from Mobile Police Department.

The DA's office said it's trying to keep Hooper in jail without bond. The Mobile Metro Jail log said Hooper's next court date is Monday, November 5.
