I know that Joshua Freeman was 22 (would be in 4 days) in july of 2008
From his obit:
"Joshua Eugene Freeman passed away on July 22, 2008 in Scottsdale, Arizona. Born as the second son to Denise and Gary Freeman on July 26, 1986 in Dire, Timbuktu Province, Mali, West Africa he was a joy to his parents and family."
When did they move to Mesa? Were his memories, that I noted didn't happen until about the same time as JA arrived in Mesa(July 2007), from elsewhere? Were his siblings also abused? Did his parents know at the time and perhaps that's why they moved to Mesa?(side note, I had a somewhat similar exp, though I honestly still don't remember it all, and my family moved to protect me and my siblings because back then stuff like this just wasn't talked about, unless the kid ended up dead from it).
