I’m wondering if the FBI ever went back to question the male prostitute that stated he saw a video of Mark being tortured years ago? That was one thing that seemed pretty far fetched to just be a made up story by the male prostitute. From all of the hundreds of video tapes that were found seems odd that all were of consenting adults.

Maybe I'm mixing my people up, but IIRC he passed away a few years back and was terminally ill when the Vanished episode came out.

Why haven’t I heard more about this case?

I know with “Missing White Girl Syndrome” a lot of the focus is on the race aspect, but I think there should also be focus on the sex aspect as I don’t think missing boys get the same attention as missing girls.

Mark Himebaugh reminds me a bit of Nicholas Barclay (à la Imposter doc). Angry, rebellious boys who didn’t have many people looking out for them. Ideal for an opportunistic kidnapper to grab him in the chaos of a brush fire. Poor buddy.

From where are you forming this opinion about his personality? It just isn't my impression.

I don't know that the "village looking out for all of the kids" idea was ever really the way it was anywhere, unfortunately. I wish it was.
