Wendell Noyes is the step father of deceased 11 year old, Celina Cass, who's remains were recently found after a week of searching.
Analysis Question: Is Celina Cass' stepfather involved in her death?
Wendell Noyes was charged with serious allegations but a judge found him "incompetent" to stand trial. Alex Sanchez, attorney, appearing on HLN last night said:
"I`m very alarmed at what I`m hearing here because for a judge to rule that a defendant is mentally incompetent to stand trial, that`s a very high threshold. That means the person does not understand the nature of the charges that have been brought against him or understand how to assist in his own defense. You have to be really out of it to be ruled incompetent."
In a show that appeared more concerned with being 'non judgmental' in a criminal investigation of the death of an 11 year old girl, this was common sense. We have learned that he has been diagnosed with schizophrenia and that he posed a risk of danger to himself and to others. In spite of this, he was allowed in the home, and Celina's biological father appeared to have little knowledge of his daughter's safety or well-being.
Noyes was involuntarily admitted to a hospital in 2003 due to schizophrenia, was arrested for threatening his ex-girlfriend, and was charged with violation of a protective order by his ex-girlfriend, for criminal trespassing, criminal threatening, and hindering apprehension, Court documents showed.
According to his ex-girlfriend, that Noyes would storm into her house while she was asleep, lifted up her mattress and banged it down and there were incident the Noyes would threatened her to throw her down the stairs.

Conclusion: We do not have enough sample of his statements to conclude that he is responsible for her death. Here is what we have thus far:
1. "the family is grieving" while Celina was missing.
2. "everyone is fine" while Celina was
3. "get home now" addressing Celina via the press.
Let's take a look at these 3 small statements.
1. While Celina was missing, a reporter asked how they were doing when Wendell Noyes answered that "the family was grieving" which indicates knowledge or belief that Celina was dead, even though she was yet to be located. "Grieving" is a form of acceptance, and is the antipathy of hope. Having given up all hope, one then begins the process of grieving. The answer has shocked many and brought suspicion upon him.
This indicates that he has either knowledge or belief that Celina was deceased while she was still missing.
2. Everyone is "fine" was answered to a reporter.
What would cause him to respond "fine" to the worst possible scenario a family can face?
a. Minimization.
Minimization can be a result of subtle denial, pushing away the intense emotional pain. Minimization is also used by guilty parties who cannot come to terms what what they have done. In murdered children we find statements by the guilty subject such as "I would not harm that child" with "harm" a softer term then "kill" such as "harm."
b. Dissociative Response: from someone simply 'numb' from the extreme circumstances.
c. Nefarious. He, himself, was doing "fine" given the circumstances that she had not yet been found. This may be, if responsible, a way of encouraging himself that she would not be found. It is not as extreme as celebration, as we saw in the murder of Caylee Anthony, but it is concerning.
3. "Get home!"
In analysis of domestic homicide 911 calls, one of the features we note among guilty callers is that the victim is disparaged.
Wendell Noyes subtly disparages Celina, blaming her as a runaway, rather than a missing child. Guilty subjects often find a way to blame or disparage the victim. This is even found with crying babies where the subject shook or hit the child.
Conclusion: Although we do not have enough sample to conclude that Wendell Noyes is not involved in her death, we have some concerns about his statements.
Police are currently investigating and we may learn more of what happened to Celina shortly. The biological father's statements are concerning, but do not show guilt, nor guilty knowledge of her death; only a neglect of Celina's care and safety.
The background of Wendell Noyes is concerning.
The brief responses of Wendell Noyes are concerning.
*Did he have knowledge that Celina was dead?
*Does he know what happened to her?
*Was he involved in her death?
*Could Wendell Noyes be making these statements because he is mentally ill and does not know what he is even saying?
These are questions that should soon have answers.
