Found Deceased IA - Xavior Harrelson, 10, Montezuma, 27 May 2021

[PeriwinkleE]

I’m not understanding how a month has gone by and not a single family member has set up a public page for this child or at the least appealed on MSM or thanked the people who aren’t afraid to speak about Xavior. If the mother or father or older relative can’t do it - they can ask someone to be the media spokesperson.

And family is active on sm. Publicly.

I just saw a public page for finding Xavier.

1. There’s a pretty obvious explanation as to what happened to Xavior.

???

Wondering what you think happened and what supports it? I don’t see anything obvious at all.

Really? I did not know this.

I won’t rag on someone for moving… could have been planned the entire time and someone could have the place lined up so current tenant had to leave. Can’t really force someone who paid a deposit to not move in.

I do ask how they moved? Moving is super tasking and physical.

Community effort to find Xavior Harrelson grows

MONTEZUMA, Iowa —

It has been three weeks since 11-year-old Xavior Harrelson was last seen in his hometown of Montezuma.

There is a growing community effort there to bring the missing boy home. A Facebook page has been dedicated to finding Harrelson, who was reported missing on May 27.

[..]

Family friend Samantha Rix reported Harrelson missing three weeks ago. She fears that despite the flyers and orange ribbons, people will forget with each passing day.

Authorities say they aren't giving up, and neither should the public.
____________

IMO, family is quick to shut down or request unauthorized sites shut down-- and MSM typically doesn't report about them.

They comment on posts and photos.

I always thought it was just a neighbor that reported it.

I always thought it was just a neighbor that reported it.

The neighbor who is currently moving out of the trailer park.

Me either.
Can someone provide a link?
TIA

I dunno... My knowledge is limited to MSM which refers to SR as the mother's friend or family friend.

Neighbors recall night before Xavior Harrelson's disappearance

By the morning of May 27, no one from the trailer park reported seeing Xavior.
Officially, law enforcement says the boy was in fact seen May 27, although no details have been provided about who saw him.

Some of the first calls Xavior's mom made to friends acknowledged that she didn't see him Thursday morning, according to the accounts of those friends.

Samantha Rix was one of those friends who received a call from Xavior's mom Thursday afternoon, reporting that her son was gone.

Do you have a link to this? TIA

 

[jenn83]

Ok I was just confused. I went back to the beginning of the thread and it always said a family friend reported him missing. I guess I got that confused with the neighbor who said she didn't see him riding his bike that morning.

Are they the same person? Family friend & neighbor.

Why is "everyone" moving out? Very strange.

I was wondering about this as well! What gets attention, how, are some states more proactive, what makes each case either an “in your face or obscure”? Should there be a more national similar response across the states when a child goes missing to get the word out instead of the patchwork that appears to be out there? I want Summer to be found but want Xavior to not be forgotten or for that matter any missing child whose name webslueths hasn’t even heard of yet? Interesting topic! Still rooting for you Xavior! We are here and keeping you in sight!

I think part of it is Tennessee seems to bring in TBI and FBI almost immediately on missing child cases. Josh DeVine of TBI always impressed me with how forthcoming and active he was in keeping the public informed about cases. TN Amber Alerts seem to be issued a lot more liberally than other states IMO.

 

[Ommmm]

I don’t know if it has any bearing on the people referred to, but eviction moratoriums end soon.
