KY KY - Mitchell Manns, 39, Floyd County, 16 March 1990

So I don't know if this is even close to the right place to put this on the Internet but I know Harry. I talk to him daily, I'm not stating my name out of safety but if you have any questions past what you read in this email me at [email protected]. So I don't want to give too many details because he doesn't talk to like anyone but his daughter and grandson nowadays. So I'm afraid if I give the whole story of how we met and whatnot he could find out, anyways my friends were doing yardwork one day and they said they were walking around looking for homes to touch up in Mansfield, Ohio. This red car pulled up and asked if they were doing yardwork and they said yea, the lady in the car (Hale's daughter Robin) asked if they would do some work for her dad, she said he's elderly and needs help with stuff around the house and would pay well, naturally needing money they said yea and starting going over there. Well instantly he never offered cash or any kind of work to do, he just offered stuff to smoke and whatnot every time we came over. He always preferred that they come over and just sit and talk as "friends" and even built "friendships" within our group. He eventually inserted himself into our lives so much that he was intrusive, texting us everyday about the most random stuff that didn't matter, and the biggest red flag was when he started saying he had a degree in this and a degree in that and this and that. He kept going on about how he was a veteran and all that and how he was a psychologist and had many degrees and he avoided multiple times when I asked for proof of these documents. I called him a liar over text and he got super defensive like someone who is lying would be, I knew he was lying and drug it out as far as possible to get as my lies and details as possible. He ended up lying so much about his past that he can't even keep his own stories straight, he slowly told the whole group to stop coming over person by person and singles out one individual kid who very very very and I mean very terrifyingly matches his victim profile. 6' 1, 16 years of age, 135 LBS, Brown eyes, darker brown hair. Eventually he got all of the group to stop coming around and it was just him that was allowed to go over there because Hale always made up some bullcrap excuse as to why we couldn't return. He also almost ALWAYS started talking about sexual stuff very intensely and wouldn't stop even when we were very uncomfortable visibly. I said all of this like I was in third person but I was actually there for it all and I've moved away now, still in contact. I'm worried for my friend, if someone would reach back and help me solve everything that's going on with this man and the previous victims I would greatly appreciate it. I know I'm late but I really need help, please!
