My son, Eric Lee Franks, has been missing for 3 years. Our family did not report him missing for a few months for a reason. He had stated that he was moving to a rural area with poor reception, so voice mails left for him were answered with emails. After we stopped receiving emails, we got concerned and starting calling other contacts. This led to reporting him missing. We later found out from police that someone had Eric's phone, so that explained the emails. We even received an email supposedly from Eric about 8 months after he vanished. We responded with "we won't have the police stop looking for you until we HEAR YOUR VOICE". Of course, the emails stopped! By the way, that last email came the day after family posed on Facebook that the police were involved. The email gave a phone # never set up and a message obviously meant to make us believe we didn't need to keep searching for answers!
