MOM OF MISSING TEXAS CHEERLEADER ARRESTED

TEXAS detectives have arrested the mother of a missing 13-year-old cheerleader who vanished three months ago. Billie Jean Dunn, 33, was picked up by deputies on an obstructing justice beef in the disappearance of her daughter Hailey.
Dunn was booked on misdemeanor charges of hindering apprehension and prosecution, possession of dangerous drugs and obstructing justice.
Dunn reported her daughter missing on Dec. 28. The woman's former live-in boyfriend, Shawn Adkins, was previously named a person of interest in Hailey's disappearance, but had not been arrested as of Thursday night, according to Mitchell County Jail. 
Adkins told cops he last saw Hailey on Dec. 27 when she told him she was going to her father's home nearby and then on to spend the night at a friend's home. She did neither. Billie Dunn said she last saw her daughter Dec. 26. They've both denied involvement in the girl's disappearance.
Dunn said she last saw Hailey at home the night of Dec. 26.
Both Adkins and Billie Dunn have denied having any involvement in the girl's disappearance. Despite widespread media attention and many searches, there have been few clues in the Hailey's heartbreaking disappearance
 Friends and family told investigators it was out of character for Hailey to leave for an extended time without checking in with her mother. If she had planned to stay overnight at a friend's house, Hailey left without her toothbrush, hairbrush and contact lens solution. Cash, a new iPod, and a jacket that friends said she would not leave home without were still in her room.
The girl is described as white, standing 5-foot-1, weighing 120 pounds, with hazel eyes and brown hair with blondish streaks. There is a $15,000 reward for information leading to the teen.
