small daughter was with baby sitters most of thetime during the day. She recalled the man mentioned he had to leave as soon as he left [REDACTED] house, as he had promised his little daughter he would pick her up that day. She recalled the man mentioned that he had recently moved into a "housing area". She recalled the man mentioning he had contacted a large number of families in the immediate area of [REDACTED] home that day with his photography offer. She recalled she asked him for a business card with the name of the company on it, but [REDACTED] that the man stated he did not have any cards to giver her. She stated the man gave her his name orally but she does not recall it, except that it was not a "foreign-sounding name" as might be suggested by the "French-Spanish" remark concerning his daughter.

COOPER" suspect.
