As authorities in Sullivan County, Tennessee, continue their desperate search for 15-month-oldEvelyn Mae Boswell, a man who dated the girl’s mother says he never met the toddler.
Evelyn was last seen in December, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation — but she was officially reported missing only on Tuesday.
But in a press conference on Friday afternoon, Sullivan County Sheriff Jeff Cassidy alleged that Boswell has given “conflicting and inaccurate information” to authorities.

The toddler’s father, Ethan Perry, is active duty in the U.S. military, and is stationed in Louisiana.
“They have half custody to the best of my knowledge,” Wood told the station. “It’s not my business to dig further into that because we weren’t that serious for me to dig further.”
Boswell did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
