Captain of the Special Victims Unit Mark Burgmann said the babysitter told detectives she dropped off Hill to his mother on July 7.
“I believe that the stepfather reached out to her and asked her how the child was doing because he was going to drop something off at the house. That’s what alerted to her, he’s not here, and that’s when it all came to light,” Burgmann explained.
Burgmann said detectives have been working around the clock to locate Hill, scouring neighborhoods near 31st and Page streets — where the mother lives — alongside FBI agents.

According to Captain Burgmann LE is in constant communication with the family and speaks to them on a daily basis. He says the family misses King and they want him back. He also said the babysitter, mom and stepfather are cooperating.
Yeah, well, except for the lying...
bbm. So this brings me back to the question of what sparked the babysitter dropping king off? Stepdad didn’t even know she was going to take him to his mom? How else would babysitter arrange this if her and mom didn’t know each other? I’m side eyeing babysitter now.
King has been missing for at least a week now. Someone needs to speak up. Yet again, we have a case where the adults who are supposed to be protecting a child consistently fail to do so. Mom would hand him off to stepdad for months at a time without even so much as a FaceTime? Stepdad hands him off to babysitter and doesn’t check in until he needs to bring something to babysitter? Babysitter, well idk about her because early on, I did feel she showed true emotion when talking about king, but without more info on how the “street corner exchange” transpired, she’s sketch too.
Was babysitter getting paid to care for king? And where’s bio dad and his family in all of this?
