In November 2022, Cox allegedly abused a child in Berkeley County, which resulted in injury. Authorities did not release details about her relationship with the child.

As soon as investigators from the CARFTF received the case, they developed information Cox had fled Berkeley County. The investigators found out she had moved to Maryland.
On April 25, 2025, the task force received additional information, which led officers to the WoodSpring Suites, an extended stay hotel in Camp Springs, Prince George’s County. They located Cox at the hotel and arrested her without incident.
Cox was booked into the Prince George’s County Jail in Upper Marlboro, Prince George’s County. She was charged as a fugitive from justice.
