This article posted today says he was last seen at Grand Central. He was coming from Long Island, so maybe he was taking the F into the city and then was last seen at Grand Central?

"Yan believes Medlin was able to bypass parental features she had put in place by secretly creating new Roblox accounts she did not know about with a separate email address, she told Fox."

Being seen once and the photo is hopeful, although its been about 3 weeks time which is terrible too without contact.
I can't imagine him not contacting his parents for weeks on end if he was able to. That gaming site if its had other "victims" go missing needs to clearly clean up it's act. Is there any word on the people he was communicating with? I haven't seen it thus far.

Roblox has been trying to clean up its act though it’s only gotten worse. I’m not here to comment on it though.

On Twitter, @RobloxNewsroom said that there is no evidence of messages of going off-platform, sharing off-platform information, or communication methods, and no indication of voice chat. Here’s a link to the tweet:

I’m sure they are honorable and everything but it’s in Roblox best interest to not find anything in their investigation.

I’d prefer a statement that said - free access to LE tech folks.

Yeah, I agree. I haven’t seen anything else, though. I’m assuming that they’re currently doing investigations with LE BTS and that’s why they’ve not said anything since?
