Bumping for Patrick. Hoping he can come home in time for Father's Day and before the 18 month mark.
Patrick was the "Have You Seen Me" child on my weekly ads this week.
Hasn't Patricks biological mother taken a poly and passed? I seem to recall her being cleared of any involvement in Patrick's disappearance but I may be mistaken. Has everyone in Patricks bio family cooperated with police? Who has been officially cleared if anyone? Was there any confirmed sightings of Patrick outside of the apartment after his disappearance?
Salem, when you have time can you give a breif synopsis of this case for those who may be new to it due to the proximity of Leiby's case?
Thank you.

Thank you SheWho and my apologies for inadvertantly calling you Salem.
If Patrick had succumbed to the elements I believe he would have been found. It's hard to imagine a scenario he wouldn't have been found if he truly succumbed to the cold.
It is possible he fell victim to a predator while waiting at the bus stop. I don't know how frequently the buses run in that area at 8-9pm. I wonder if it is possible for the scent dog to have picked up Patricks trail from an earlier trip to that bus stop such as him using that bus to go to and from school. School would have been in session from the winter break by January 22nd.
Is there a map or location of the bus stop Patricks where the dogs tracked Patricks scent before losing the trail?
I do pray the answers to his disappearance are found one day. Hopefully found safe.

Patrick was reportedly last seen around 9:00 pm. If foster-mom didn't go with Patrick to the trash, it may have been 5-10 minutes before she noticed he was gone. He could have gotten on that bus from just before 9:00 to about 9:15. Or within 15 minutes before or after that, depending on how long before she noticed he was missing.
Another thing about this bus is that it goes to Coney Island as a final destination. Which...isn't Staten Island, but it is in that direction. (I haven't yet looked at bus connections beyond that point into Staten Island, or sex offenders at that location. Hopefully will get to that this weekend, too.)
IIRC the foster Mom didn't take a LDT, correct?
