This is the best way to prevent break-ins of vacant homes. Keep it up as if it’s occupied, keep the heat running to a degree, and use timer lights. I only recently found out that there were two vacant homes near me. I kept seeing exhaust from the chimneys and occasional lights, lawns mowed, leaves cleaned up, etc. So it wouldn’t surprise me if very few people realized this house was vacant.
Still thinking about LE communications here. The deviation from "child found" to "child recovered" is so at odds with the reluctance to confirm whether he is alive or dead. Given the time passed, I would be shocked to hear that HD is alive. I wonder why the language choices.
I can’t understand how his jacket ended up on the second floor hanging on a door and his body stuck in the chimney.
Sources say his body was found behind a wall, possibly inside the chimney of the home.
Investigators are still on scene gathering evidence. Sources added that a portion of the home’s wall was removed.

That’s true!people hold onto property for lots of reasons.
Yeah "drones focusing" on chimney, this is an accidental death...it has to be. And in my opinion, I reckon HD has been visiting that property for some time.
My thoughts exactly! Is it possible that the lockbox was recently placed in the home?
Does anyone know if this state mandates that vacant homes have a lock box so that emergency responders may enter?
Everybody was just waiting for LE to get done before they searched themselves.

HD having a secret hideaway makes him leaving his house so early on a school day (6:08am) make more sense to me. Perhaps he even slept there the night before his dissepearance after leaving his friends house.
My fear is foul play or accident. If accidental and if having his phone would have saved him .... I can't even :*-(
