KANSAS CITY — The aunt of 10-month-old Lisa Irwin said the family expects Kansas City police to arrest Lisa’s mother soon. Ashley Irwin, Lisa’s aunt, told ABC News that police have run into a stone wall and are under pressure to make an arrest and will pin Lisa’s disappearance on mother Deborah Bradley. “She doesn’t care what happens to her,” Ashley Irwin said. “She doesn’t care what people say about her. She doesn’t care a thing about her. All she cares about is getting Lisa home.” Police won’t say if they close to arresting anyone in the case but strongly dispute that they would ever arrest an innocent person.Kansas City police report there are no new major leads in the baby’s disappearance from her bedroom last week. In the past week, police have chased more than 250 tips and leads, including one about a couple in California seen with a baby that looked like Lisa, and another tip involving a teen-aged neighbor who apparently knew the family’s garage access code. But so far, all of those leads have been dead ends, ABC Radio reported. Police were following up a tip about a homeless man in the neighborhood pedaling a red bicycle a couple of weeks before Lisa disappeared. On Sunday, detectives and FBI agents showed up at the Irwin home on Sunday for an unusual re-creation. They were pretending to be the intruder, climbing through the window, something that ABC said didn’t look very easy or quiet. At one point, the window pane came slamming down loudly on the legs of one of the investigators. They didn’t say if the re-enactment would help validate or discredit the story told by Lisa’s parents, Jeremy and Deborah, that the kidnapper came into the home through the window and snatched Lisa away. Also, the Kansas City Star reported a Clay County, Mo., grand jury has subpoenaed raw television film from local television stations in the case. The stations haven’t said how they’ll respond.
