PORTLAND ( AP) — The mother of a Maine toddler who went missing before Christmas says she’s arranging with investigators for her and others in her family to take polygraph tests regarding the disappearance.
Trista Reynolds told the Bangor Daily News on Monday she’s been offering to take a lie detector test since the day her daughter disappeared.
Ayla Reynolds was reported missing Dec. 17 by her father, Justin DiPietro, who told police she wasn’t in her bed that morning at his Waterville home. Ayla was wearing pajamas with the words “Daddy’s Princess” on them and had a cast on her broken left arm before she vanished.
DiPietro last week said he took a polygraph test shortly after Ayla disappeared. Neither he nor police would say what the results were.
Police are investigating the disappearance.
