thank you for posting the link. they were concerned that they would have too much information regarding a missing little boy and they didn't want to work any tips from an amber alert that would "overwhelm them" until monday after their holiday. That is disgusting.

I am posting this, my mom wrote this for Jonathan, even though she isn't his biological grandmother she still played that roll while he lived with us.


*It's not the answer prayed for. It's not what we wanted to hear. My mind refuses to allow me to connect you with the*words I am reading on the reports. Not Jonathon, it's not the child I knew. The Jonathon I know continues to smile that embarrassed little smile, the one that plays timidly at the corners of his mouth. The Jonathon I know, his*eyes continue to see the things that made him happy,*a new litter of furry puppies, his granny smiling at*him with pride, fireworks displays and fish caught on*a line. *And not the Jonathon with the incrediable appetite, always grateful for the second helping. No, I can't put that together with the horrible reality of a world gone mad where a young boy is disregarded completely. No, I will keep my memory of you as the last time I saw you, walking into that airport in Tulsa, walking with a sense of purpose. You were going to go see granny, you were happy. The last time I was near you you were being gently transported into a cloudless sky. You still are. Relax into the arms of*the one who bears you now to your ultimate comfort. Smile into the face* of the wonderful counselor. Open your eyes to the beauty none of us have yet seen. *It wasn't the answer we prayed for but*we continue to pray for the peace that passes understanding."

Jonathan has one sister, she resides with her dad. She lived with granny until I think right around the time Jonathan came there, not positive on that timeline though. J am sure she visited her mother but when Jonathan came to live with us she went to live with her granny, she is 10 years old.

Is Jonathan's sister from the same set of parents or is Jonathan's sister a half sister?

Hopes Dim For Safe Recovery In Case Of Missing Jonathan Foster


Hopes for the safe recovery of 12-year-old Jonathan Foster, missing since Christmas Eve, continued to dim Tuesday, with detectives privately saying they believe the burned body found in a ditch near the Hardy Toll Road was, in fact, that of the boy.

SNIP>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Speaking on the condition of anonymity, one detective said late Tuesday evening the focus of the investigation had turned to Foster’s mother and stepfather, Angela and David Davis. Without categorizing them as suspects, the veteran investigator said “it sure looks like there’s some involvement there.”

“At this point, I can’t say they’re responsible for the boy’s disappearance, but we’re certainly looking very closely at them. We have some very troubling evidence and some obviously false statements given to investigators early on,” he said.

The investigator also said “all indications” are that the burned body is that of Foster.

Police also said they had recovered some “significant evidence” from a surveillance camera at the Rolled Alloys facility next to where the body was found. They would not disclose the nature of that evidence, but the stepfather’s car was searched and impounded by police shortly after detectives completed their review of the video.
