It has been nearly one year since police declared his 2-year-old son, Sky Metalwala, missing. The boy’s mother, Julia Biryukova, told police her car ran out of gas and she left Sky in the car while she, and Sky’s sister, went to get help. She told police when she returned, Sky was gone.
“I think her story is a bunch of crap,” says Solomon. “I think the whole story about her running out of gas is a bunch of baloney.”

Solomon says he still remains hopeful that his story will have a happy ending. “I still believe he is alive. There is no evidence that he’s dead, and I’m a believer.”
Today I started handing out Skys "missing flyers" again. Its time.
Hello Sky Crew,
I heard back from Bellevue Police Department, nothing. This is what Carla Iafrate wrote:
"...,
Nothing new to report.
Best Regards,
Officer Carla Iafrate
Bellevue Police Department
Public Information Officer"
I emailed Clay Terry (Solomon's attorney) today to let him know that we changed our avatars to candle images and that we are all standing in solidarity, beaming a huge light of love and support out to Solomon, Clay, and little M as this anniversary approaches. I want Solomon to know that he is not alone in this fight for justice and that he has a whole community of people he has never even met that love and care deeply for Sky.
I would like to suggest that we all take a minute (I will take mine at 9:50am -- when Julia made that first call to LE to report Sky missing) on Tuesday, November 6th, to sit in a moment of quiet reflection and think about the beautiful boy who has been missing for a year and send out a small prayer for resolution and justice. Small prayers, when amassed together, can have great impact, I do believe....
@ cocomod
Words can never adequately express what I want. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and that these thoughts and prayers bring some solace to you.
@ Gatekeeper
I just read that there is a dear friend missing in his aircraft. Once again, thoughts and prayers for his safe return.
Dear XXXXX:
I really appreciate your kind email. I will pass this to Solomon. We are doing several meeting interviews this week and are hopeful that someone will step forward. The case is really one of one person (Julia, the mother) knowing exactly what happened to her child, and three family members encouraging her to stay silent (Julia’s brother, mother and father), and two friends who have not stepped forward with information they should have. Somewhere in that circle of really bad people (except for Julia who already knows) is the answer.
Could you imagine in your wildest dreams that if your child was missing, your husband and his family and his best friends would not raise one single finger to find your child? These are awful people, and how they can sweep this sweet child away so easily is the mark of a depraved heart.
As you can tell, I am really frustrated. I do appreciate your help.
Clay
Hello Everyone! Finally, a bit of hope on the horizon!! Clay Terry responded to the email I sent him, letting him know that we are all thinking of him, Sky, Solomon, and little M as this anniversary approaches -- and that we have changed our avatar pics to candles, contacted news agencies, and agreed to take a moment silence tomorrow. Clay gave me permission to post his response in full. I find it energizing! Clay is truly one in a million, if you ask me. He has poured his very heart into this case and should be acknowledged for that.
Clay, Solomon, M: We are here with you every step of the way!!
Hi Sky Crew!
I responded to a spam dating site that came to my DH... and searched for Julia Biryukova...
We keep getting messages saying, "We may have found Julia Biryukova, Age 31"...
But we need to sign up and pay $$...
I am hesitant to do this... but I thought I would forward this site to you all in case any of you would like to pursue this!

Praying Sky comes home soon! raying:
Blessings!
