TX - Jonathan Foster 12, Found Deceased Media Links

Date of video 12/28/10 AFTER Amber Alert Was Issued

This video we have Det Waters ~1:03, telling the reporter a piece of the timeline of the phone calls between 1:45 - 2:10. Adding that 1:45 PM, for me is CRUICAL as this is when the DD went to the house. At no point is the Det Waters saying DD went to the house. Also this video is AFTER AD admitted JF was home alone. Also in this video is when DD mumbles to AD.

Concerned, Davis called the house phone repeatedly as she drove there, she said. Someone picked up just minutes before she pulled up around 2 p.m.

She said when a woman answered, Davis asked to speak to her son. She heard a woman say: "Is your mama's name Angela?" she said.

The video came out with AD saying exactly what is printed in the article. Still looking for that video.

There is a longer version of this video somewhere. This is before the story changed.

Trusting and sweet to the end
When Jonathan Paul Foster is buried in South Park Cemetery in Pearland on Tuesday, he will be the first interred in a family plot that will someday hold his grandparents.
That Jonathan eventually will rest with his family offered a little solace to relatives of the 12-year-old boy killed on Christmas Eve, his remains charred and left in a drainage culvert in Houston.
By all accounts, it is an unspeakably sad end for a boy whose family members described him as deeply loving and affectionate. Even after bouncing from house to house in his 12 years — living with his mother, his grandmother and an uncle — he still had the trust of an innocent child.

To catch and release a killer
Titus County's reputation was sullied recently with the revelation that a long-time resident, Mona Nelson, was arrested as the suspect in the murder of 12-year old Jonathan Foster, who disappeared in Houston on Christmas Eve.
As we wrote on Dec. 31, Nelson was arrested ten times from 1991 to 2008 in Titus County for offenses ranging from traffic fines to family violence and assault, according to our jail records.
The last time she was arrested, in 2008, was for three counts of Injury to a Child - a fact mentioned by other media in Houston and elsewhere.

Hours after Christmas Day dinner at her sister's Third Ward apartment, Mona Yvette Nelson, a nomadic 44-year-old maintenance worker, was jolted by a TV news report detailing the disappearance of 12-year-old Jonathan Foster from a ramshackle Garden Oaks enclave.
"I know those people," she reportedly told her sister, Angie Johnson, 62, after watching Jonathan's mother, Angela Davis, plead for help in finding her son.
Four days later, Nelson found herself in a Harris County jail cell, charged in the boy's slaying as veteran homicide detectives with uncharacteristic candor painted her a monster.
