Centerville sister will search for Husted 'until I'm 99 if I have to'
He was last seen working as a contractor on a private hog farm south of Linville, Iowa in Mercer County, Missouri.
“They had searched the area behind the barn, they searched in the barn,” said Husted’s stepfather, Danny Scott. “I talked to the farm manager and they held off putting any hogs in until they got the pit pumped and then the sheriff said they did pump the pit and had the Hazmat team in there.”
Eight months later, Husted’s whereabouts remain a mystery. And now his family fears for his life.
"I don't think he's ok,” said Husted’s sister, Iesha Husted. “I think either he's gone or something bad is happening to him as we speak, but I want to keep the faith that he's alive somewhere."
Carol Rouse was six months pregnant with Husted's son when he disappeared.
"I actually let him feel Kendrick kick, so he at least got to feel that part before he went missing," Rouse said.
Husted's family hasn't given up on him. Iesha Husted tells KTVO she will keep looking for her brother until she finds him.
"I love him,” she said. “He's my little brother. I'll search until I’m 99 if I have to."
