Police in Council Bluffs are asking for your help in finding a teenaged female runaway and her infant, whom they believe may be in Villisca or St. Joseph, MO. Officials say 17-year old Jewelie Coburn, of Council Bluffs, and her 1-year old son Gaige left Children’s Square at around 6:45-p.m. Tuesday. Officers were notified at 7:25-p.m. and checked the area of North 16th Street in Council Bluffs, and Interstate 29, after receiving a report of a female carrying a baby, but no one was located.
A tip led authorities to believe the pair may have been enroute to Villisca, but after a check by a deputy of a residence, and following several follow-up phone calls with Coburn’s relatives in Delware and Villisca residents, they learned Jewelie and her baby may still be in Villisca, or, St. Joseph, Missouri.
Investigators remain in contact with Montgomery County authorities while the search is underway. Anyone with information about the teen and her son are asked to contact the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office or Council Bluffs Police at 712-328-4715.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — A judge says a suspected pimp charged with running a nationwide sex trafficking ring will continue to be jailed in Council Bluffs despite claims that he’s being harassed by other inmates. Johnelle Bell’s attorney had requested that his client be transferred to a jail in Des Moines, saying he’s being “subjected to threats and other abuse” from inmates who learned about the nature of charges against him.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Celeste Bremer rejected the request after a hearing Tuesday. She says the U.S. Marshals Service is taking steps to address the security issues that Bell raised. Bell is being detained while he awaits trial on charges that he ran a sex trafficking ring that used Backpage.com to lure customers to pay for sex with prostitutes as young as age 17.
