But Friday, June 28, Hampton police chief Terry Sult stated that they believe that Noah is no longer alive. "Based on the highly coordinated investigation we believe him to be deceased. This leaves us a little bit speechless, but the search for Noah continues. We’ll never give up hope," Sult said.

In 2010, Tomlin was arrested for felony child neglect for intentionally burning her one-year-old daughter on a hot stove. She spent five months in jail for that offense.
