Police are still searching for a missing 10-month-old boy this afternoon after the social worker he was with was found dead in a western Kentucky home. The child's mother and the mother's boyfriend also were missing according to Sgt. Dwight Duncan of the Henderson Police Department. An Amber Alert was issued Monday night for the baby, Saige Terrell. Police said he was believed to be with his mother, 33 year old Renee Terrell, of Henderson, and her boyfriend, 23 year old Christopher Wayne Luttrell. Henderson police were called when the social worker didn't return to work Monday after taking the baby, who was in state custody, for a visit with the mother, Duncan said. Police went to Terrell's home and found 67 year old Boni Frederick of Morganfield at about 4:30 p.m. Frederick worked for the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services. Governor Fletcher has ordered that flags at all state buildings be lowered to half staff in memory of Frederick. Duncan said police believe Frederick was murdered, but he would not comment on her cause of death pending an autopsy that was ongoing late this morning. Terrell and the young child are believed to be traveling in a white 2000 Daewoo Nubia station wagon with Kentucky license plate 675-DRV and could possibly be traveling in any direction as she has family in Louisville; Evansville, Fort Wayne, Ind.; and in New York, according to police. If en route to New York or the Eastern Coast, Terrell could be traveling through the area. If you see any suspicious behavior or a car fitting the description you are urged to call 911 immediately.
