No money in the wallet doesn't necessarily concern me, since some people don't carry cash. But his mother's ashes WITHOUT the chain, that indicates the chain was broken, maybe in a struggle. I hope Koby is ok...

I agree the chain is a huge red flag. I would normally think a case like this could be a suicide as one of the options, but the chain has thrown that theory out for me.

MOO

Totally agree that no money in the wallet isn’t that big of a deal unless he’s known to carry cash. IMO, the wallet being left behind is a bigger deal than having no cash in it.
But like you stated, the necklace with his mother’s ashes being found puts up a bigger red flag.
One of the photos posted shows him with the necklace on.

Geeze, looking at this case, it’s a very telling story of perseverance, hope and change. I hope there’s still time to get to Koby. I fear it’s too late. This does not look good.

Definitely not feeling this will end well with only being out of rehab less than a month. I hope I'm wrong.

Moo

Looking at his Facebook, there’s not been any activity since the 3rd of July.
That day seemed like a great day for him! I wish him safety but honestly the longer he is missing the more worried I am.
