Snipped from post above:
Yesterday afternoon well into the evening I read every post and every article and every video posted here for Patrick (thank you all very much!).
I don't have the time right now to go back and extract every post in which I read the specifics in order to support my post, please forgive. The informatiion is not my work and all thank you's need to go to those that have posted and kept Patrick's thread up to date.
The above snip from I4G's post, gives us how many people are working this case. It is huge and huge resources are being spent to find Patrick. Thank goodness.
Patrick was seen leaving the lobby. His FP (foster parent) was seen searching for him on video. That leads me to believe that video's were available to LE. Since it was not reported who saw Patrick leave the lobby, as of right now I'm going to assume that LE saw him on video leave. JMHO. (The FP's story is probably her CYAing because she knew he was a possible runner but letting him take out the trash is not illegal. Irresponsible given her length of experience as a FP? Marginally. Not prosecutable.)
The bus stop? The Belt Parkway? The home on Staten Island? All places that Patrick's scent was picked up. Went cold.
I am trusting the 4 yr old sister of Patrick's account that he took out the trash. To the hallway? and then made a run for it? JMHO.
Maybe he did make it to that bus stop? Maybe his scent was there from a previous day? Who can say with accuracy? Perhaps he made it to the bus stop with intentions to try to get back to SI. Perhaps someone gave him a ride (stranger?)? I don't know at this point.
His Mother's arrests, prior, during and after Patrick's disappearance are a distraction IMHO. Probably not connected to his disappearing JMHO.
I didn't read any sightings reported of Patrick. In a missing child case that can be a very bad sign. JMHO. Maybe not depends.
He walked (ran) into the night on a very cold snowy (reportedly) evening. He has not been seen since.
My heart tells me to hold out hope that he is okay and will be returned home soon.
My mind tells me after watching all the various crimes against children that we read here daily on WS that he won't be coming home in the condition I am praying for![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
If his family reads here. My prayers are with you. Please do not let my words upset you.

...Police said it is among the most intense searches in recent history with 9,100 apartments at 214 buildings canvassed and 14,000 people interviewed.
They've even devoted a situation room to Patrick at the precinct house. Maps and photographs cover the walls
