Mother of missing boy on dating site?

SEATTLE, Nov. 15 (UPI) -- Washington police say the mother of missing 2-year-old Sky Metalwala -- or someone using her name and likeness -- created a dating Web site profile in July.

Brandon Wade, the owner of seekingarrangement.com, said police contacted him asking for any information he could provide on the profile and his staff turned over a list of login information and messages to and from the account, KING-TV, Seattle, reported Monday.

The Web site presents itself as "a secure place for like-minded Sugar Daddies, Mommies and Sugar Babies to meet each other."

Biryukova, if it was indeed her who created the account, "signed up to be a sugar baby, which means she's looking for someone wealthy to take care of her," Wade said.

The profile page, created July 25 by a person identifying herself as "JB," features nine photographs of Biryukova, whose son has been missing for nine days.

The profile says "JB" expects "US $3,001-$5,000 monthly."

Biryukova has not agreed to a police interview or a polygraph test since telling Bellevue police her son disappeared after she left him in her car when it ran out of gas and she walked to a gas station, KING-TV reported.

Bellevue police said they are considering a change in tactics and may seek criminal charges in the disappearance, The Seattle Times reported

"At some point, it would not be unlikely this would become a criminal investigation," Bellevue police Maj. Mike Johnson said.

"The thing we are lacking is evidence, and as soon as we can have enough evidence to point us one direction or the other, we can flip that switch and call it something else."
