Thanks! I'm a criminal defense lawyer, I understand how these things work. Jurisdictions where missing people went missing do not announce press conferences to discuss "hoaxes" that occurred in other states. If you are going to make condescending posts you may want to actually read up on the subject you're pretending to be an expert in.
What press conference are you referring to? Aurora PD's spokesperson told the NYT this afternoon: “It could be Pitzen,” he said. “It could be a hoax."
Timmothy Pitzen Vanished in 2011. A Teenager in Kentucky Says He’s the Missing Boy.
I'm not an expert, but I like facts, not sensationalization.
