I personally have dismissed her lead.I won't look into it any more.LE looked into her lead and nothing could be found out as the truth.There was no trace of this little boy found in her basement.LE checked it.Neighbors and friends that had access to their house and was in every part of the house never saw a boy like the boy in the box there.No one ever saw a boy that looked like him with her and her parents.To me I feel all she remembered was her own basement.That proves nothing to me.This lead really didn't pan out.
The Good Samaritan said he saw a BOY and a woman.Not a girl.This information was in the newspapers very early in the investigation where she could have saw this in the newspaper.
The more I read and learn on this little boy in the box's case.The more I'm thinking that the boy and woman seen may not have been related to the boy in the box at all.I just don't know.Apparently the place the Good Samaritan saw them was in the same place women's clothing and maybe a child's smaller clothes than what the boy in the box size was were found.I'm confused about what was found there.The woman and boy might have just been using the area as a dump site and not related to the boy at all.If they are related I want to know more about these woman a child's clothing found there.I have not ruled the woman and boy seen near the car out though.

WHO IS THE BOY IN THE BOX?
By Bruce McIntyre
Two hundred feet from the body, along Verree Road, police searchers found a cache of clothing for a woman and child - but the smaller clothing was not the dead boy's size.
A story told by an informant who later contacted police seemed to cast some light on this clothing, but created a new mystery.
Two days before the body was found, said the man to Lieutenant William Lovejoy of the northeast detective division, he had been driving along Verree Road when he saw a middle-aged woman and a boy, 12 to 14, unloading something from the trunk of a car.
"I thought the car might have a flat tire, so I stopped and asked if I could help. They didn't say a word, and seemed to be standing so as to block my view of the license plate."
The scene which he described was almost exactly where the clothing had been found. The informant described the car and the woman and boy, but they were never found.
