I first saw the image of this unidentified boy last night and then could not sleep as I was haunted by his face. In the pic where he is looking at the web cam his face is SO sad. It breaks my heart as I, too, think this is related to child *advertiser censored*. I am terrified for him and want him safe NOW.
I am wondering if the images of the boy are stills from the video that is said to be a part of the investigation? When I read about this case and the mention of other children and video, my first thought was the images of this boy are captured from the video. They are not releasing the video or stills of the other children for identification because it is too graphic.
(again I'm just guessing)
Perhaps they were able to trace that the video was uploaded from Minnesota or Wisconsin through ip address but couldn't pinpoint exact location due to anonymous proxy or someone logging into another person's wifi? Whoever uploaded the video to the internet could even be traveling. Stop in Minnesota or Wisconsin for the night. Tap into someone's wifi or free wifi at a truck stop or hotel, etc., and upload video and are gone by the next day. If location of where the video was uploaded from was identified and the people were traveling and just passing through the location, they would be long gone by now.
If they have video of this child and other children being abused they would want to rescue the children as soon as possible, but if they aren't located at the ip address where the video was uploaded to the internet, they then need to identify the children in order to figure out where they live. So maybe they are hoping someone will recognize this boy and be able to give his address so the authorities can locate and rescue him and the other children and of course arrest the SOB responsible.
This is what I have been thinking since last night. I believe the boy looks A LOT like Taylor. I think it's possible it is him. Perhaps Taylor was kidnapped by a sex offender and so were the other children in the videos? Or perhaps Taylor ran away from home and met up with a SO who offered him a place to stay and now will not let him leave? Such scary stuff and what a nightmare for all the children who have to suffer. This is making me ill.
