CA CA - Neal King, 25, Oroville, 26 March 2013

If there is insufficient evidence, what is the Judge to do? I prefer to let him go on this charge, hopefully there will be a murder charge upcoming instead.

124lbs of marijuana and $56K in cash sound like enough to me...but I don't have a law degree. I find it interesting that they waived their right to a jury trial and went with a judge...may be legit...or may be I'm just too jaded as my hinky meter is going off.
 
Cheatham had three boating citations in 2011. Made me think of how easy it would be to dispose of a body in that manner. Does he still have that boat, or did he have it in 2013?
 
Neal's Mom held a Celebration of Life service for him this past weekend

Poem for Neil, written by his Mom.

Neal my son, I Search For You

I searched for you in the unfamiliar tall pines and darkly forested mountainsides,
I searched for you by the cold, deep lakes and rocky streams,
I searched for you in the distant clouds and in the endless night sky,
I cried out to the Universe for you.
I searched for you in my photos.
I searched for you in the stories your friends sent me
I searched for you in the places your father and I took you when you were small,
I searched where you loved best, this island,
I searched for you at your favorite cove where we watched the dolphins play,
I searched for you in our secret swimming place and on the windswept beach.
I searched for you in the setting sun on the Laguna Madre
I searched for you as I strummed your guitar, feeling where your fingers touched.
I searched for you as I held your favorite shirt to my face and breathed you
I searched for you in the few things that were dear to you
And I began to find you.
I found you in what you loved more than anything in this world, I found you in what you saved, the letters I sent you, the pictures of your family you always kept with you, no matter where you went, and I found you in this poem from school you wrote at aged 10.

Red, satisfied, happy and average
Son of Gayle and Clifton King
Lover of animals, family and friends
Who feels pain when he gets punched by a friend, when he gets hit in the head by a golf club, when a
needle is going through his skin to stitch it up,
Who feels joy when a friend makes him laugh, when he has a birthday party and everyone yells “Happy
Birthday”, and when Christmas comes around and everyone is happy no matter how bad their day
was,
Who needs food, shelter, and water,
Who fears death, pain, and sickness,
Who gives presents to my family on Christmas, on their birthdays, and on Mother’s and Father’s day.
Who would like to see laughter when he makes a joke, sadness when someone gets hurt, and the world to be a better place,
Resident of McAllen, Texas, Neal King (aged 10)
 
I apologize if this isn't relevant because I haven't kept up on this case as much as I usually do, but I wanted to bring this to the attention of those who follow any cases of people missing near this area. Skeletal remains were found in the Sacramento river in Glenn County. The river name might be misleading - this is quite a bit North of Sacramento (roughly 2 hours).

bumping for Neal. I hope he is found and I hope DC rots in hell.
 
I think Neal's father passed away today, reading at the FB page.
Missing: NEAL KING
https://www.facebook.com/MissingNealKing
Neal went missing two years ago today.

Thanks KateB, it was Neal's Grandpa that passed away yesterday. It is a little confusing, but here is another post from Neal's mom on the Missing NEAL KING FB Page:

My father in law, Neal P. King passed away today. Neal's uncle Neal passed away 3 years ago on his father Neals birthday, March 30th, Neal disappeared on March 26th and I felt him leave this earth on March 30th, it has been 2 long years. All three Neal Kings are together and are dearly missed. March is a hard month for us.

So Neal, his grandfather and Uncle (all named Neal) all passed in March of separate years. I don't think we have ever heard much about Neal's dad (?)

ETA: Neal's mom writes in comments that they never told Papaw Neal that young Neal was missing :tears: breaks my heart

just wanted to add that I think of Neal often. I believe he is somewhere up there in the hills of Oroville/Berry Creek...

I can't imagine Don Cheatham taking him elsewhere. I think he knew the area very very well.

Poor Neal :(
 
Bumping for you Neal, you did not deserve this! I hope you are found soon.
 
Neal went missing 4 years ago today. Bumping for you Neal. [emoji170]

Oh gosh, I haven't thought of Neal and his beautiful Mom in years. I wonder if Cheatham ever told anyone where Neal's body is?
