I live here and the possibilities you’ve mentioned we’ve all been discussing. Many of us are very upset, concerned… and not sure what else to do….
Option #1) from my understanding he has two friends, one whose home he spent Thursday evening at until it was time to go home. The police have talked to the boys and the parents.
Option #2) Most of the children are walking to school 630-700 in the morning, and he had a few blocks to go. We’re located off a major highway (RT #2) that leads directly to Toledo/Detroit which on the national average is considered a high sex-trafficking area.
Option #3) Harley wanted to stay home that morning because he was sick, his Mom told him to go to school since it was the last day before Christmas vacation. He did not have his phone, either he or someone else broke it earlier that week. Therefore, contacting an on-line person seems slim.
Option #4) from what we understand Harley was having problems at home, the police were called there last month. One of his video tapes, from October 2018 provided a glimpse into his unhappiness.
1. Did anyone else know HD phone was not with him? Makes him more vulnerable.
Correct, nowadays they are more vulnerable without a phone. If anyone else knew other than his friends or parents, that hasn’t been stated.
2. Is there a way to trace HD's online gaming communications? The police are aware of Harley’s YouTube videos, social media and have been searching through all of it.
3. Was last video footage location a part of HD's normal route? From the video’s I watched of his old YouTube channel and the one set up a few months ago, it appears a lot are made in his home but I noticed many were made while walking around town. In some he actually turned the camera around to show where he was at and mentioned “Port Clinton.”
