From Oct 12th:
Another familys pain
Denise Alves' brother also went missing in the 80s. She said that 26 years ago Christopher Abeyta was taken from his crib when he was just seven months old. Christopher, like Michaela, has not been found.
Denise says her family was wrongly accused of having something to do with his disappearance.
The website dedicated to Christopher,
www.findchristopher.com, shares a message to Christopher from his family that reads:
We have searched for you for 25 years. Our lives have forever been changed by this cowardly act done to an innocent baby, and there is no such thing as closure.
We have lived with the hope that you were raised with a family whom has loved and cared for you. Your family continues to investigate your disappearance and will not stop until we have answers and justice has been served.
You have loving parents and six older brothers and sisters who play an active part in your investigation. We love you!
Denise said in an email last week that Lisas story brings back memories and raw emotions. These parents are going through a living hell, she said. My Parents woke to an empty crib and it soon became apparent that the police were not following up on leads and law enforcement formed a myopic view on the case and felt my Mom had something to do with his disappearance, which hindered the investigation.
Watch The Steps of Christopher Abeytas Kidnapper.
If only the detectives had not flawed the investigation I believe we would have answers and not have had to live this nightmare for so long.
The good news is that after 26 years the current detectives are having the case reviewed at the persistence of my parents. We have lived what Lisa Irwins parents are going through.
There are only 12 infants documented by the National Center for Missing Children in the United States in 28 years who have been taken by a stranger and not reunited with their families and Christopher's case is one of them, she said.

Sounds as if Mr Abeyta and his family are people you would want around. This article seems to have been written before Mr Abeyta traveled from CO.
