OH OH - Harley Dilly, 14, walking to Port Clinton High School, 20 Dec 2019 #2

[Pammi]

I’m looking for it but can’t quickly find it. I’ve been a serial poster here so my memory is failing me right now. I’m pretty sure it was around the time the thread was centering around a quarry.

Try thread 1 page 32. But I can’t get the map to load....

Remember Balloon Boy in Colorado? If his parents had successfully pulled off the hoax they just might have gotten the tv show they were trying to pitch. Just wondering if this could have started as a way for HD to get a bunch of attention to up his viewership and popularity and then something/someone turned bad. I do not expect a good outcome. Just hoping it was an accident if he is gone.

Looking at that map, I wonder why point 66 is so far away from the rest. Why would they just have the one point but nothing from the group to there.

Yeah. No matter the scenario, this won’t have a happy ending.

I tend to believe that this started off as something within Harley’s control, and devolved from there.

Too much time has passed.

Prayers tonight as always Harley for you to be safe and warm somewhere hanging out tonight. We won't stop looking, even though everyone brings something different in our backgrounds and opinions we are all firm in searching for you for as long as it takes ...TES Prayers for y'all out there as well, all the SARS always in our prayers Thanks very much for all you do. MOO.

Speculating here, but does anyone know if LE has looked into other kids who were absent that day? Maybe a group of friends skipped class?

I've actually wondered that exact thing, which is why I was so concerned when I saw that he had posted on his channel about a YTer who apparently committed suicide by jumping off a bridge.

It's not outside the realm of possibility that HD thought a similar gesture would garner as much attention.

JMO.

Hadn’t seen that and obviously hoping that’s not the case. Can you post a link and time stamp?

Agree with your assessment. Having said that:

The 40+ hour reporting delay is still lurking menacingly in the background.

I'm struggling to reconcile that gaping window of time with the idea that HD left the house voluntarily.

JMO.

Sure!

Give me a minute to find it backthread and I'll slide it in here. Hang on...

*ETA: Here you go.

why is point 107 showing a grey x instead of a blue bubble? It’s on the bay at gypsum. ?

Is the Port Clinton Landfill on that map? I can't tell. It would be my first check.

I know what you mean. As I see it, that’s a close secondary possibility.

This was death by misadventure, or something nefarious that occurred close to home.

It all comes down to off that image is of him.

It’s near point 7 west of pc near camp perry
There are 2 #7 on the map it’s between them

Despite his obviously difficult family there is nothing that points me to him being a suicidal, or even a danger seeking kid. In all of his videos he is happy, often mischievous, but not seeking danger. Why victim blame him at this point? Why even see him as suicidal?

As a therapist I have profiled this kid, I don't see him as suicidal. That sounds like what people who are close to him would like to purport as a justification. It doesn't mean it is true.

Well that got me into trouble when I profiled the people around him and the law enforcement in the area. Let's just say that if/when a body is found, maybe a competent forensic autopsy should be performed.

Yes I do believe Harley is no longer with us. It saddens me to say this.

I am just an old fart with a lot of opinions and a lot of heart. I will leave it up to you young sleuths to find the answer.

To the managers of this board, if I have overstepped my bounds, I am sorry. This is all my own opinion, both professionally and personally.

Have you seen this video?? Time stamp 4:30. HD is aware enough to know how his mental state is to let everyone know, BUT he lets people know how he is doing in his video's so that's a plus. He uses his channels to vent and his gaming is an outlet. IMO. To me it's a healthy outlet, but hey what do I know, I'm the mom of an 18 y/o. I SHOULD have a 14 y/o, and I have a 9 y/o. I feel bad for this kid knowing what I hear in the background of these video's isn't sunshine and rainbows and I can't help but wonder if it's always like that, or do we just catch the bad days.
Anyway, here's the video I am referring to:

If every day is a bad day, then that says a lot. This is not a happy family, not by any stretch.

But if it factors in, who knows?
