HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Police are investigating the discovery of a child's body in northeast Houston, just off the Hardy Toll Road.

Thanks...I saw that one...but the poster said a "small boy" so that's what I was searching for...but reading your link again, it's been updated and includes this addl. statement which I hadn't seen before!

"My best understanding is that someone saw what they believed to be burned debris and they called it in and upon further inspection, they thought it might be a body," said Lt. Martinez with the Houston Police Department.

Why would someone call police over "burned debris" in an industrial area? :waitasec:

 

[peeples]

I did the "small child" referenced by MSM somehwere, but don't remember where...

I just joined, but watched this website all night.

I think you are so sharp with your observations. I'm not sure this is our guy, I think it is probably the poor little 4 year old taken by his father, the alleged murderer. But you are so right. The overbite that has been mentioned since the first report, would be a very quick way to start the identifying process going.

Glad you joined! :welcome:

IMO, if the step-father is a RSO, we would have heard about that one by now. Well, maybe I should say "hopefully" we would have heard about it by now.

Took forever for MSM to report that the skelton boys mom was a RSO though...

 

[cluciano63]

Haleigh, Kyron, Zahra, Ethan, Hasani, the Skelton boys, and I am sure I am missing many others, all who seem to get stuck in the middle of marriages gone bad, or in a parent with a new relationship, etc...too sad.

 

[Dear Prudence]

I cannot fathom a 12 yr old at a sitters, let alone when there is a plethora of available relatives in the same town including the grandmother he had just recently lived with PLUS step dad if she thought he couldn't be trusted alone.
The sitter thing just sounded totally hinkey from the beginning.

Jonathan just turned 12 last month. It's been reported he has ADD and easily gets confused. I can see why he would need a sitter. Grandmother lives on the other side of Houston so probably more than an hour away.

This is sounding a lot like Robert Manwill.

You are reading my mind as I was thinking this earlier.

 

[Nangrace]

Only watched that last report with the SD's profile but there is quite a resemblance to this houston SO search David Weldon Davis

[Brattigirle]

Can someone repost the video of mom and SD's interview. Wanna take a good look at SD and compare him to the houston SOs

Here are 3

He's a bright kid, does well in school, has friends...........I don't believe he's THAT easily confused.

If his mother believed he was home alone, why was the step dad there? If the step dad was there, why would he need a sitter? If the mom couldn't trust or feel comfortable with step dad watching her son, why was she even with him at all?

IMO, if these three precious children went missing under the mother's watch, we probably would have heard about it the same day.

Well i don't know how long his mom's work shift was, how long between when he could be checked on by someone else etc... But my almost 10 yr old has ADHD, tourrettes, ODD etc. and I can leave him for a couple hours (my major once a month grocery shopping trip which he hates LOL) and just check in via cell or have someone else stop in maybe once. I certainly wouldn't do it for an 8 hour work shift ever. I am in a support group locally for parents with special needs kids and unless their child is non verbal/low functioning I cannot think of any who have sitters for their kids who are of the 11/12 yr old range. It was a topic this past spring about finding sitters for special needs kids over the summer. It's just not common around here. Maybe in large cities it's different.

 

[A_News_Junkie]

I thought the exact same. We should look again.

The boy's mother told police she last saw him at about 1:45 p.m. She reported him missing at about 9:30 p.m., said Sgt. Stuart Harris of HPD's Missing Persons Unit.

Davis has a Lubbock address.

He reported 9/14/10 to Lubbock. Hadn't mom and SD been together for a year or so? Doubt that's him.

That's the confusing part, i've read it was the mom who last saw him at 1:45 and also it was the step dad that last saw him at 1:45. Also mom said step dad saw him at 1:45 by the time she got home from work 25 minutes later Jonathan was gone..... too many stories to keep track of sadly
