Hanna Lee and Skye Rex, then ages 7 and 5, were last seen in Waynesboro, on March 17, 2020, authorities said in multiple releases over the last three years. 

Lee and Rex were abducted by their mom Lashada Lee, now 46 years old, according to an updated release by the police on April 20, 2023. 

Lee was wanted on two felony charges for Interference With Custody Of Children first filed on June 2, 2020, following a three-year-long custody battle the girls' father, and her ex-husband, John Rex, court records show.

Lee has ties to the DC and Maryland area, so investigators believed she and the children might be there, but it is unclear where they were located. 

Lee traveled to Waynesboro and surrendered to area police on April 19, but she has since been release on $25,000 bail, the police said and court records confirmed. 

"The Waynesboro Police Department was assisted by the U.S. Marshall Service, Franklin County DA investigators, NCMEC, Team Adam, Sheppard Consulting, and multiple officers and agencies in the Washington, DC metropolitan area," as stated in the release.

"The girls are safe and in the custody of Children and Youth pending a hearing," despite the girl's father's previous pleas— "I love my daughters more than anything in this world and continue to do everything I can to find them. I’ll never give up. I’ll never stop searching, but I need help," Rex said to NCMEC on Father's Day in 2021.
