What a horrific reality to not only be looking for your vulnerable son but to have to wonder if he has been unlawfully detained by a disorganized and chaotic paramilitary organization with almost no accountability. I hope this gets the coverage it deserves. Something about him still being in his pajama pants, the innocence and comfort of them, makes it so much more terrible. I hate that our communities must fear our loved ones being victimized by the government in addition to rogue predators and misadventure.
