Boy's death prompts interest in McKees Rocks case

The killing last week of 11-year-old Scott Drake was a troubling reminder to Donald Panyko of the mysterious disappearance nine years ago of another little boy.[FONT=arial,helvetica,geneva,sans-serif][SIZE=-1][FONT=arial,helvetica,geneva,sans-serif][SIZE=-1]

Suspect had link to other case
OCTOBER 2, 2000

The arrest of a homeless man for the brutal killing of an 11-year-old Pittsburgh boy unveiled some disturbing coincidences with an unsolved case of a missing boy, a police officer said.

The man charged in Scott's death, 47-year-old Joseph Cornelius, once lived with a woman who was close friends with 8-year-old William Majewski, who disappeared in November 1991.

Anniversary of disappearance today.

I'm always surprised that their mothers have something to do with their disappearances... the one who should have taken care of you and protected you leaves you thrown away and forgotten... really, if it wasn't her, maybe it was the homeless man who is suspicious even though he should be dead as a couple to be investigated again
rest in peace little one

<<Divers and dogs searched the creek and surrounding area extensively. Although the search dogs reacted to a few scents, no other clues were found. Witnesses saw Majewski in the McKees Rocks Plaza. One person saw him talking to a scruffy man in a store. Another said an unkempt man pulled him into a burnt-orange Nova. The man and the car were never found. The possibility that he drowned or died in an accident is slim, because no body was found.>>
