The six-year-old was then seen on July 12 with her mom, Sarah, six days later at Phoenix Sky Harbor airport. 

She was wearing a white shirt and a pink jacket at the time she went missing, according to police.

Cops have revealed Sarah, 48, is Violet’s non-custodial mom.

She is wanted regarding a custodial interference investigation, according to the Hawaii Police Department

An arrest warrant is issued for Sarah’s arrest.

And Arizona officials issued the state’s first-ever Turquoise Alert.

Governor Katie Hobbs signed the bill which created the Turquoise Alert into law in May.

For a Turquoise Alert to be issued, five criteria have to be met.

The missing person has to be under the age of 65.

All local resources must have been used up.

Turquoise Alerts can be issued if the authorities believe the missing person vanished under strange circumstances.

Authorities must also suspect the person must be in danger for a Turquoise Alert to be considered.

Cops must also believe information can be released to the public which can help to the missing person being found.

Hobbs described the Turquoise Alert system as a “critical communication tool.”

“This tool is a meaningful step to improve the safety and wellbeing of communities across Arizona, and in particular Tribal communities, which for too long have suffered from a crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous people,” she said.

The Turquoise Alert was sent to all phones across Arizona – a state of more than 7.5 million people.

There are four different alerts that can be issued across Arizona.

The Amber Alert, launched in 1996, are issued by authorities when they believe a child faces imminent danger of serious bodily injury or death.

Amber Alerts can be issued for cases where a child might have been abducted.

Blue Alerts, meanwhile, are issued when a cop or law enforcement officer has been attacked.

And, Silver Alerts are reserved for cases involving people who suffer from cognitive disabilities, or are over the age of 65.

Previously, a Silver Alert in Arizona only used to be issued for missing senior citizens.
