Something has been bothering me about Etan's stats in his missing-persons registry. I noticed this when I read Lisa Cohen's book After Etan three years ago, and now that PH has confessed and told this story involving the fridge and the box, etc., I'm thinking there's a discrepancy in Etan's height. The poster and registry stats say he was 3 feet, 4 inches, or 40 inches tall. This is not likely, IMO. That's about the size of an average four-year-old boy, actually. My son, as I've mentioned before, is six years old and also weighs about 50 lbs like we know Etan did. But my son is more like 46-47 inches tall. He is pretty average for his age, both in height and weight. My point in all of this is that maybe it could cast a shadow on PH's story if the child were actually taller. Maybe it would mean it was more difficult to stuff his body in the fridge. The height thing has bothered me for a long time and now it's making me scratch my head a little more. But it could mean nothing at all too. I just really don't think he could have been only 40 inches tall and I wish the stats were more accurate...
