[blueclouds]

Joshua Bryant's remains have been located. The child and his grandmother went missing in 2001. Grandmothers remains have not yet been located.

Suspect had shot himself to death during a crime spree in May

"Investigators found the skeletal remains of 10-year-old boy who vanished with his grandmother in 2001, and authorities said Monday they believe both were slain by a man who allegedly killed three people during a crime spree last month. "

I have always wondered what happened to this boy and his grandmother. The grandmother must have been so afraid for her grandson.

very sad. But sounds like no justice will be served.

From May 2011:

One man is still in search of justice ten years after his grandmother and young brother vanished from their Deltona home.

Lillian Martin, 77, hasn't been seen since May 12th, 2001. Her body never found and though the body of Joshua Bryant, just 10 years old, was found, no one has ever been charged in his death. It's a case that's stumped investigators and torn a family apart.

One of the first statements 38-year-old Arnold Bryant makes to FOX 35 is, "Some people may look at the case and say it's cold, but it's not cold to me. Not in my heart. I live with it every day."
