[Remi_Aventura]

Excellent question. There must be a record of of the denial, but probably no explanation of why.

 

[always reading]

I wonder why the order of protection was denied.

Maybe she had no proof?

Can't tell. Can't find anything else substantive either on her or *cough* bf.

Bumping for Bonsai
Robert "Bee" [emoji219][emoji219][emoji219]you will get Justice[emoji885][emoji885] one day and we'll all be here for you until then. As I lay her with a high fever sick I wonder if Robert ever in his tiny life felt taken care of. IMO no his mother feed him to the wolves[emoji190] [emoji252]I will never understand why she did not get charged with neglect at a minimum. Surely IMO if police and truancy come to your house and you've lost your child and have no clue where he is that's neglect?

It's a rare day that I don't think of Robert. His story is one of those that hit my heart...hard. Sadly, I don't think Robert's care was ever anyone's first priority. I too, hope for justice one day....and if not on this earth...then in the afterlife.

Hope you feel better soon SC!

Just bumping for Bonsai.

If this was accidental / suicide etc. I'm sure they would have released a cause of death by now. I hope they're still on the case.

It is probably more difficult to find a cause of death with skeletal remains. I think Robert is a victim of a homicide. Either his mom or her boyfriend caused his death, dumped his body, and moved on with their lives.

Hello, Henry!

 

[thesensitivechild]

Aw I’m glad to see someone posted here today. It’s as if everyone forgot.

 

[Huntress11]

I'm from Pekin and followed this case. I can't forget this child. I wish more was being done.

 

[Lynnieth]

Bump for little Bonsai, may you rest in peace and may we find out what happened to you, so that justice can be served!

 

[Henry2326]

When I read Robert's story, I feel like there is one small piece of info missing. I can't put my finger on it, and I bet LE feels the same way. Fly high, Robert, we are thinking of you and hope for justice soon!!

New Jersey filmmaker hopes to shed light on Robert Bee case

Jul 12, 2019

[...]

The case of Robert Bee didn’t gain widespread national attention, but it did catch the eye of a New Jersey filmmaker who is beginning work on a docu-series and podcast about the case.

Soon, the world might be a lot more familiar with Robert “Bonzai” Bee.

Ash Patino is the owner of Generic Brand Human, a video production company based in Stanhope, N.J. She and fellow filmmaker Koehl Ehlers met with sources and did work earlier this week filming for the project titled “Ashes to Ash: The Case of Robert Bee.”

Patino spoke with GateHouse Media Illinois about the upcoming docu-series that will be released on the group’s YouTube channel, also called Generic Brand Human. The interview has been edited for length and clarity:

I still want to know what his "mom's" involvement with this was. Her "story" never made sense.
And --imo-- she didn't even seem to be worried !

 

[Legally Bland]

Find the trailer on the Ashes to Ash YouTube channel, which is also where the project will premiere later this year.

Trailer offers first look at the new Robert Bee docuseries

Has someone been arrested for this? <modsnip>

No. November 16th it will be 3 years since he was last seen. His mother reported him as a runaway the next day

 

[BTK]

I don't know why the judge denied the Order of Protection against the ex-boyfriend. He sounds crazy! There has to be something they are not telling...

His alibi checked out and Lisa didn't go to court

 

[libraryg]

The first 2 episodes of the documentary is now out, with new episodes coming every 2 weeks. The second has a lengthy interview with Lisa. Lived in Peoria, just across the river from Pekin, all my life and this case haunts me deeply.

 

[Lynnieth]

I actually want to thank Ash and her team for entering this journey - it really gets to me when she talks about the experience and the feelings she had when visiting the site where Bonzai's remains were found. For me, a person from the other side of the world, to actually see the footage of the places and houses and persons with whom little Bonzai interacted with, also makes it even more "real" to me.
It's amazing that Ash and her team got to use their available means to do this research and take the time to get to know the facts and the people involved whereas - especially - trying to maintain an unbiased mind, despite all the information they have had access to.

Just watched the two episodes and my heart just sinks at the confirmation that little Bonzai was actually left to fend for himself. It gives me the sense that the mother was not present and left him at the mercy of neighbors and friends.

Nothing that mother says makes sense to me, I can't read her blank expression, I can't decide if the long pauses before answering are because she's trying not to let the truth slip from her mouth or if she's just in shock and that's just the way she reacts to it. She also does give many contradicting statements throughout the interview.

I really hope that this investigation sheds some light on the events that happened and that justice can be made. I hope Bonzai is shining bright, wherever he is.
