Im hoping Azgrandma has shared her thoughts with investigators in this case.
Dylan arrived at the airport in Durango just after 7 pm. His phone was disabled at 8 pm. I wish MR would talk about the phone and why Dylan didn't use it after 8 pm. That phone was his lifeline to his mom and friends. I wonder why the reporter didn't ask about that phone, would have been my first question.
My guess, from what I read last night, MR accepted the proposal to sign in order not to have to pay, but then never actually signed (or paid) leaving them in a sort of limbo.
The Amber Alert has been brought up many times. Here's a little info on it that might help .
http://www.amberalert.gov/guidelines.htm
Law Enforcement Confirms an Abduction
.....................................................
AMBER plans require law enforcement to confirm an abduction prior to issuing an alert. This is essential when determining the level of risk to the child.
Risk of Serious Bodily Injury or Death
..................................................
Plans require a child be at risk for serious bodily harm or death before an alert can be issued.
Sufficient Descriptive Information
..............................................
For an AMBER Alert to be effective in recovering a missing child, the law enforcement agency must have enough information to believe that an immediate broadcast to the public will enhance the efforts of law enforcement to locate the child and apprehend the suspect.
Age of Child
.....................
Every state adopt the 17 years of age or younger standard;
NCIC Data Entry
..........................
Immediately enter AMBER Alert data into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) system.
So for days and days they were unsure and still today may be UNSURE if an abduction took place. That is the reason I guess there was not one. Also they usually do have a description of the abductor or vehicle .
IDK; guess mark got to keep his kids' $40,000....because that's what child support is - money to your kids
If they had joint custody (or whatever it's called in Colorado), he probably wouldn't have paid any support, at least that's how it works here. Of course, there are different types of custody: One can have sole physical custody while they have shared legal custody.My daughters ex was an abuser. He also had an ex with his child. He relinquished his rights to get out of paying child support. Once my daughter divorced him, he stalked her for years until she let him out of paying child support.
He was dangerous. Thank goodnes he relinquished his rights with all of his children.
This is what I suspect led to this situation with MR and Dylan. He was sick and tired of paying. Jmo
Thank you! That explains things better. I think my brain is numb. Along with my butt from straddling this fence.
I hope and pray that Dylan is somewhere safe and warm. But if he's gone, and if it turns out that his dad had anything to do with it, I will be happy to eat crow. I hear that if you put enough barbecue sauce on it, it's not too bad.
But if it turns out that he had nothing to do with it.... I promise not to gloat. Much. :floorlaugh:
and it made me gulp a littleWhich could explain his attempt at directing the search to the lake.
You know... maybe one reason he didn't pay it, could be because he was kept from seeing them, for whatever reason. This happened with one family I knew. The dad refused to pay child support because his ex would never let him see them and she got away with it for years. He did end up having to pay it, plus the back support he owed, but he had no choice, they took it out of his pay.
OTOH, my DIL always let her son visit his dad, never refused him his visitation rights and he rarely paid child support. She had him arrested time after time. He would pay the current and maybe a little extra, but not all that he owed. Her lawyer finally filed papers and she got all the back support, eventually.
There are always two sides to every story. Three, if you want to count the truth as one side. And I'm not referring to this case, just saying.
I know that it is possible for a step-parent to adopt a child without the ncp relinquishing parental rights, at least in some places. If the ncp has not paid child support, and hasn't had contact with the child/children for over a year, the courts CAN terminate the ncp's parental rights and allow the adoption. It does require sending a certified letter to the parent with information about when and where the hearing will be. If the person doesn't show up for it, the rights can be terminated.You know... maybe one reason he didn't pay it, could be because he was kept from seeing them, for whatever reason.

Thank you so much for this information! I used to explain this often, but I gave up. A lot of people think that just because a child is missing there should be an Amber Alert. I just couldn't get it across that unless there is information concerning a potential SUSPECT and a VEHICLE description then there is NOTHING to broadcast on the Amber Alert! The point of the Amber alerts is for the public to be on the lookout for a particular vehicle/suspect...not just to notify the public that a child is missing.
Has anyone sleuthed the records AZGrandma said we could? Why are we taking her word as gospel? Am I missing something? Geez, I'm so over this thread. My heart breaks for Dylan and his family, ALL of his family. I just can't take the witch hunt anymore. It's quite sickening. MOO

Yes that does explain the requirements (thanks SCHMAE for your original post above too), but it seems it's not always strictly adhered to? I followed Jessica Ridgeway's case here and could have sworn an Amber Alert was issued for her. Maybe the title of the thread confused me -
CO - AMBER ALERT: Jessica Ridgeway, 10, Westminster, 5 Oct 2012 - #1 as the report quoted says one wasn't issued at that point.
This is the Amber Alert I mentioned earlier - as quoted by someone on the FMDR fb page. It is one that doesn't appear to link any suspect or vehicle:

Which could explain his attempt at directing the search to the lake.
