I think there's just a lot of pressure on the OCSD to find Blaze. The OCSD hasn't ruled out that he's still alive, but I think they know that the longer he isn't found the lower the odds of him returning safely.

Define classmate.

I think this was a worrying development earlier, but I'm pretty sure OCSD has tried matching dental records of the victim to Blaze. Besides, the fire occurred two days after his disappearance. I think it's not him, fortunately.

Blaze's father seemed really careful to use the present tense this time. Maybe it's just me, but I rarely hear "is named", since the act of naming occurs in the past.

Before people freak out about homicide investigators, I think everyone should look at this: http://www.ocsd.org/divisions/fieldops/investigations/cib/homicide The homicide division handles missing persons' cases.

I think you're probably right. This "reward" still reeks of a city supervisor trying to use Blaze's disappearance for his own purposes, though.

I don't see a 130 lbs, 5'8" Ivy League student brawling in the park.

It also attracts false leads. If the OCSD has actual leads as they're saying, they might not need more potential ones for detectives to follow up on.

I'd like to offer my thoughts in a similar vein to this post. I think it's honestly quite unlikely that Blaze was murdered. It's been a week. By this point, investigators have likely looked into every facet of Blaze's life, every friend he might have had a dispute with, and searched for any...

Yeah, I did.

Yeah, I think others have cast doubt on the whole "Blaze ran into the wilderness" claim much better than I could.

nothing new under the sun

As far as the helicopters go (even though we're not certain that they went to the reservoir or not), I think it's likely that a body left in the reservoir a few days ago would surface around this time. Redirecting a helicopter might just be an easy way of checking.

I saw that construction project on a map. There's literally no better place to bury someone than a piece of land that won't be disturbed for the next few decades. I wonder if the police took dogs out there?

I believe that in that interview where she discusses installing monitoring software, Blaze told her that "she could always use 'Find My iPhone' to find him". I think I told my parents the same thing when they made that request. Funny. I'm reading this more as a kid running away from the demand...
