Video interview with Dane's mom. She says there are sightings every day and so far none of them have been credible but not all of them have been followed up on. She mentions some locations of the potential sightings and says they are meeting at the Coffee Bean today because a lot of them have been there or in that area.

Brentwood family continues search 2 months after student went missing | KTLA
For the sake of the family, I really hope that these sightings have truly been him. This is a race against time. Assuming that the sightings are accurate, he has been out there for nearly two months. Having left behind all of his technology, he has very limited means of communication with his loved ones, and without a car, he probably has to resort to unconventional and dangerous methods of getting around town. The thought of him, as he currently is, possibly walking on the highway to get from place to place or hitchhiking with strangers horrifies me. There has also been plenty of time for his mental state to worsen, as the odds are virtually zero that he has received any sort of medical assistance in the time following his breakdown. After suffering a mental breakdown of this severity and duration, he is probably going to need intensive and long-term care, in my non-medical opinion.
I've watched several videos of Dane on his mother's and sister's TikTok profiles. He seems like a very fun, silly person, and like I said before, he has so much going for him. It is absolutely saddening to see his life unravel in such a dramatic and public manner.
