Haylee Donathan was found safe on Tuesday, June 23, 2009, although authorities believe she may have chicken pox.

Four-year-old Haylee Donathan, who disappeared with her mother, Candace Watson, and fugitive sex offender, Robbi Potter, was found Tuesday in San Diego at a Christian retreat center.

Haylee was picked up by authorities, while Potter, 27, and Watson, 24, were arrested after a tip from U.S. Marshals led officers to the fugitive. 

U.S. Marshal Peter Elliott said Haylee is safe, although she may have a bad case of chicken pox. 

Potter escaped from a halfway house on May 28.  He had served time at Belmont Correctional Institution, for two counts of sexual battery on two children, ages 7 and 9.

Elliot said, “What he did in the past made me sick to my stomach.”

Haylee’s uncle, Cyle Watson, was arrested June 11 for helping Potter escape from the halfway house. Also arrested in connection with the escape was Haylee’s father, James Donathan and his girlfriend, Nicole Kirkpatrick.

U.S. Marshals worked diligently with Richland County sheriff’s deputies to make the arrest and bring Haylee home safely.
