O'Donnell, 53, has previously said that Chelsea "is very mentally ill," and was clearly upset about the circumstances in which she was found, judging from the tone of the tweets.
Police, who are investigating of the chain of events, told reporters Wednesday that there was no explosive fight between Rosie and the adopted teen preceding her weeklong disappearance.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, police Tuesday located Chelsea hiding in the attic of at a house with her therapy dog Bear, after Sheerer denied she was there.
More issues for O'Donnell stem out of Chelsea's growing relationship with her biological mother Deanna Micoley, who told RadarOnline.com that O'Donnell's fame has worn down Chelsea, who "is tired of living in the spotlight."
