As Find Kadin Black is an approved source, the page has offered a response to the YDR record mentioned above. The response was posted on 9/21/23 and it is evident that the family is displeased with the YDR article.
I will be summarizing a post from Find Kadin Black from today 09/24, which I think is interesting. The author identifies themself as Kadin's mother.
In the post, the author lists two possible things that they believe may have happened to Kadin. The first is that he was killed. According to the author, this is because the family he'd been staying with sold his vehicle without asking his mother. The post does not include how long after he went missing that the vehicle was sold. They further explain that Kadin's phone was last at that family's home prior to being shut off due to dying and that the device has never been recovered, despite the home being searched.
The second theory the author suggests is that Kadin ran away. He did not want to return to jail. The author does not lean towards this theory because Kadin disappeared shortly before Christmas, but prior to his court date, and Kadin was aware he would be receiving money for a holiday gift. It is also pointed out that Kadin deposited a paycheck the day before and someone planning to run from the law would likely want cash. The author states that there has been no additional activity on Kadin's bank account. It is stated that Kadin's attorney felt that he was going to beat the charges against him.
There is no mention of the possibility that Kadin harmed himself.
