YA - Steve Wilkos he was a bouncer on the Jerry Springer show in his former TV life...

OT but Steve Wilkos was a Chicago police officer for many years. I worked with him at a department store where he did security on the weekends. :D

Thanks MizStery,

I am glad LE is taking a day off from media stuff. I believe they are getting closer to solving this case. I think the statement was something like..we dont have any news that we can release today.

They are working really hard on this case.

I am surprised to learn that the church is that close to where Julia left the car. Wow just another part of her story that doesnt make sense.

First post, I've been following this since the beginning. I think y'all are an amazing group of people, lots of good questions and thoughts that I didn't consider. I check in often to see if precious Sky has been found. I pray he is safe.

JB was on her way to the hospital because he was ill, do we know what symptoms prompted the trip?

Elizabeth Morgan had her parents take her child (Hilary Foretich) to new Zealand because she claimed that the father was sexually abusing the girl. Dr. Morgan spent 2 years in jail for contempt, refusing to tell where the girl was. Congress actually passed a law specifically to get her out of jail.

It is rare, of course. Most high SES people would not give up their livelihood even to protect their child, but this woman did it. Then again, she TRIED the courts, and tried to do things the right way. I don't have the same sympathy for Julie - I get the sense that what she is doing is either vindictive, evil or stone-cold crazy.

I met and spoke with the judge in that case - the judge who granted custody to the father. He said it was 100% a case of parental alienation. That he heard tapes of the mother whipping the kid into a frenzy and putting things in her head. He said there was no evidence to support sexual abuse by the father. For whatever that's worth. I had supported the people hiding the child until then.

I hope you are right, but I don't think LE will be able to solve this without finding Sky. It just doesn't seem to work out in cases involving children, if they remain missing.

Here's some more info on the Foretich case:

But for 20 years, some journalists, psychologists, researchers and lawyers have been skeptical. Eric Foretich passed three lie-detector tests in court — two administered by police. He has consistently filed lawsuits against media outlets, including ABC for portraying him as a pedophile in the 1992 TV movie The Elizabeth Morgan Story. ABC paid him a settlement, but Foretich has nearly gone bankrupt fighting the media, according to his attorney, Jonathan Turley.

Here's how it could apply to Sky's case:

Courts now are frequently faced with allegations like those in Morgan vs. Foretich, hard to prove and even harder to dispel. The fathers’-rights movement now makes a point of warning fathers to prepare for abuse allegations.
“The mere accusation is sufficient to strip the father of all his custody rights and launch a criminal investigation,” Morphonios says.

Sadly I find myself almost always agreeing with you Clu. I take great solace in little Lauryn Dickens. Her 'mother' has been charged with 1st degree murder despite Lauryn's remains not being recovered. It hasn't gone to trial yet but I hope it helps to set the tone of other cases.

Isn't it sad that we all lose hope that cases will be solved? I think of Kyron, Hailey Dunn, Baby Lisa and so many other cases where the child or adult has not been found while the perp is walking around free. Makes me sad that so many people are getting away with murder, and it seems every case I follow lately has been this way.

I know Cluciano ..I guess I am not willing to give up on the notion I learned as a child..If you break the law they will get you.

I have read a few cases that it hasnt happened that way ..but I also believe in Karma and folks pay that way all the time.

Since becoming a member here I wish that I had gone into LE or search and rescue or doing lab work for LE when I was a wippersnapper. Am retired now but sure do enjoy learning from all you folks.

So now I pray and I feel that it is the strongest tool available to us.

Man I hate it when threads quite down. Everyone may not agree with me but I wish they had a presser today just to keep the public involved. I can only hope that LE is crossing their T's and dotting their I's and putting enough info together to find him.


IMO

@Coldpizza i would like to think that LE learned a lot from the CA trial. Keeping quiet, investigating without giving the public too much info, etc. I would like to hear them come on the news and just say "we are working on it. this case is far from over."

MOO

Sorry to pop in and ask for an update, but Tyler's case has blown me away and I've been AWOL for this one. Any significant developments today? TIA...

As far as I know, there was NEVER any imminent arrest in this case. Not sure where Nancy is getting this information.
