It is possible. But why would Etan be in the workshop when he was on the way to the bus for school? Miller knew he was on the way to school so it wouldn't make sense to take him into the workshop just to tinker around with the machinery, imo.
But it seems odd that no other neighborhood kids have come forward to accuse Miller of anything over the years. It seems that if a handyman is a twisted pedophile, and is capable of killing a little 6 yr old and burying him in the basement, that he would have more victims in the past 30 years.
Maybe he killed them all, but are there many kids in the surrounding area missing?
the rest at Atlanta Journal-Consitution link aboveNEW YORK A generation of sheltered American children grew up in the shadow of anxiety that fell over this country one day in 1979, when a little boy with a charming grin vanished from a Manhattan street corner.
They never knew his name or saw that angelic-looking face. But their parents would never forget it.
For some, their caution was simply a result of what they read in news reports. Others, including Jim Stratton, had an immediate and very personal reason to be afraid.
"It sent a chill through everybody," said Stratton, 73, whose son was in the same neighborhood play group as Etan Patz, the 6-year-old who never boarded his school bus on May 25, 1979. "You could not leave your child for a minute. Anywhere. It was like a dark cloud had come over the neighborhood."

Good catch. I read right by that. And you're right. Probably there was a juxtaposition of fact when the article was edited. That can happen when editing copy down from a larger article via computer - a copy and paste faux pas. Carelessness.There was Jacob Wetterling, abducted and killed by a masked gunman in 1989 while riding his bicycle home from a convenience store in St. Joseph, Minn.

I thought there was no evidence that Jacob was killed??? He hasn't been found yet, maybe just an error in reporting?
I do hope they find Etan, so many people need closure to a mystery haunting us for over 30 decades! It will be eerie though if he is, because it means all these decades he was a block away from home...

One possible explanation may be that:
In the decades after the Patz disappearance, Miller bounced around the country, landing in East Orange, N.J., Colorado, Massachusetts and Florida, records show.

more on the stain of interest:NEW YORK (CNN) - The search for Etan Patz, a 6-year-old New York boy who disappeared more than three decades ago, was suspended Sunday for "operational reasons," an FBI spokesman said.
"I don't want to get into what those reasons were," Peter Donald said. "We'll be back in the morning.

The chemical can indicate the presence of blood, but is not always conclusive, according to the source. At this time, the stain is described only as an area of interest.
