Anderson County Sheriff John Skipper announced "No major breaks" in the case. This is the second-day deputies with hatches and machetes scoured the woods around the apartments. Fifteen deputies searched this day but stopped when heavy rains began at 7:30 pm.
"We just wanted to make sure that we came back and covered the area again," Skipper said. "We didn't find anything."

Investigators search trash at a waste transfer center in Pendleton until 10 pm. Skipper said garbage from the apartment was likely brought to the site. (One news source says Saturday, and the other says Sunday morning. One source says both days. Skipper mentions the trash picked up the day before, around 8 am. This interview was posted on the 8th.)
https://www.wyff4.com/article/search-for-missing-girl-continues-6/6806904
"From history throughout the county, you know that when people come up missing, sometimes they end up in a landfill," Skipper said. "We always try to put this first on our list. That way, we'll know that if it wasn't in the truck then we don't have to go someplace else and dig later."

A vigil is held outside the apartment. They lit candles, prayed, and handed out flyers.
"She was a sweet baby. I just want somebody to tell me anything, any little thing would help. I just want her back, back to me and my family. That's all that matters to me," Sullivan said.
https://www.wyff4.com/article/search-for-missing-baby-moves-12-miles-from-her-home-sheriff-says/7015251
Law enforcement released the 911 call. The call in which a woman tells 911 that a baby who could not walk is missing from the apartment. The woman says the mother was sleeping, and the child was gone when she woke.
"I asked her to call her baby dad to see if he, you know, picked the child up, but the older little girl is here," a woman said Saturday in 911 recordings obtained by The Greenville News. "And she keep saying, if he got the baby he would've got the older one. So it's just kind of confusing. I don't know. It don't make sense."
The 911 caller said she saw Sullivan and Jones try and get info from the three-year-old. The girl said she had opened the door.
"She's telling somebody else now that when she looked outside, her little sister was by — it's a car right here in the mixed breezeway complex — that she was right here but somebody picked her up," the woman said to the dispatcher.

The 10th Circuit Solicitor has had the case file for review.
https://www.wspa.com/news/local-news/warrants-obtained-in-leonna-wright-disappearance-solicitor-says/
Estimated Time Unknown
The arrest warrants were announced controversially by Tenth Circuit Solicitor David Wagner. Wagner released a statement about the situation and said he was asked to review the case before charging, but the sheriff did not wait for the completion.
"I cannot speak to the appropriateness of these charges until the full review process is finalized to ensure the high standards of evidence that we require for prosecution have been met," said Wagner. "Therefore, my office considers this matter to remain an on-going open investigation, and for that reason I will not be commenting further at this time."
"I am aware that warrants have been obtained by the Anderson County Sheriff's Office at the direction of Sheriff McBride in the matter of the tragic case of Leonna Wright. As a courtesy to the Sheriff's Office I agreed to review the Leonna Wright case file prior to any charging decision being made. Unfortunately, the Sheriff's Office has declined to return this courtesy by waiting until my review was complete prior to charging. I cannot speak to the appropriateness of these charges until the full review process is finalized to ensure the high standards of evidence that we require for prosecution have been met. Therefore, my office considers this matter to remain an on-going open investigation, and for that reason I will not be commenting further at this time."
Anderson County Sheriff's Office replied with a statement as well.
"We feel that the early release of the information regarding the case of Baby Leona Wright by the 10th Circuit Solicitor's Office is potentially reckless and unorthodox. We are in somewhat disbelief that these actions have occurred as it is not normal standard procedure.
The release of this information was done prematurely and can now potentially cause a flight risk of suspect(s) in this case. It also creates an officer safety risk for those involved in trying to apprehend the suspect(s).
Additionally, the 10th Circuit Solicitor's has had the case file for review since January 2020. Anderson County Sheriff's Detectives recently presented the facts of this case to a Magistrate, who found probable cause to issue arrest warrants. The ACSO will have no further comment until arrests have made."
The ACSO detectives said they presented facts to a magistrate judge who found probable cause to issue arrest warrants.

According to Anderson County Clerk Of Court Richard Shirley, the murder charges were dropped in a preliminary hearing. However, the defense attorneys for the brother said the testimonies conflicted.
"Do you ever see Travis with Leonna with a bag with anything of that sort?" said Russell Sanford, Travis Jones' attorney.
"No, sir," said Investigator Grady Epps, with the Anderson County Sheriff's Office.
Anderson County investigators said Leonna's mother told police a bag found at a property on Bickford Circle belonged to Donnie Jones.
"There's no physical evidence linking my client, Donnie Jones, to a homicide of the child in any way, is there?" asked Hadden Lucas, attorney for Donnie Jones.
"No, sir," Epps said.
Deputies say Donnie Jones's phone records show he was in the Bickford Circle area during the time of Leonna's disappearance, but no human remains were ever found.
"We had a cadaver dog actually indicated twice to possible human remains there on the property where that burn barrel was dumped," Epps said at the hearing.
"Is it the police theory was that the child was fed to the hogs, or put in a burn barrel - which one is it?" Lucas asked.
"We never found any kind of evidence to say she was fed to the hogs," Epps said. "But we do have somebody saying they saw her in the burn barrel."
https://www.wyff4.com/article/conflicting-testimony-evidence-magistrate-finds-in-leonna-wright-hearing/38544530
Sheriff McBride released the statement.
"On December 15, 2021 the case regarding Leonna Wright was dismissed in a preliminary hearing. Although the Magistrate that issued the arrest warrants for the two defendants originally found probable cause to charge them, a different Magistrate that oversaw the proceeding today found that there was insufficient probable cause to move forward. While I disagree with today's ruling, the Anderson County Sheriff's Office is committed to seeking justice for Baby Leonna Wright. Our Detectives continue to investigate this incident in hopes to find additional evidence that would lead to the prosecution and conviction of those responsible. When I inherited this case in 2017, I was determined to bring to justice those responsible for Baby Leonna. I am thankful for all of the Detectives that have been involved in this investigation and am grateful for all of their hard work, effort, and countless manhours spent working on this case. I am confident they will continue their relentless pursuit for justice."

The family and an activist who worked with the family since the disappearance said they were not informed of the hearing ahead of time.
"A lot of thoughts went through my mind, but to be honest with you it was sort of expected," said Community Activist Traci Fant. "It was a 50/50 chance they would uphold the charges because there was no body."
