Morning, any news?

peeples · Dec 29, 2010

just waiting for positive body ID and then an article said they're hoping to making an arrest.

salvarenga · Dec 29, 2010

Which one of these would be the correct place to keep an eye out for an arrest?

I read it last night posted in one of the links about the "body found floating/dog found?" but can't seem to find it now. Very odd... I remember there were about 55 comments on that story the last I looked at the count.

i found an article re: the floating body in buffalo bayou that has a comment section but there is no comment on gender. article says body seemed to have reddish blonde hair.

we know Jonathan wasn't with the babysitter, but the babysitter is considered a POI - see darlin gal's post #282

Is the SD the "babysitter?"

peeples · Dec 29, 2010

I know.. so sad for the baby

I heard last night the body they found was 3 feet tall and a few inches. That would be pretty small for a 12 year old, wouldn't it?

mysticrose · Dec 29, 2010

Why does the news keep reporting that mom did not report him missing until 9:30 pm ? I thought we have determined she called around 2:30 pm... frustrating

The 12 year old is supposed to be close to five feet tall. But the body found was burned so maybe the height estimate of it being only 3 feet is incorrect?

I think because the news people often prefer drama to facts, sometimes. Sensationalism sells. MOO

I believe there was confusion because the Amber Alert was issued at 9:30 - she had called earlier than that. There as an article I read last night that stated this. It was stupid because the article said it was "strategy" on the part of LE because they "didn't want to be overwhelmed with information". WTF?????:banghead: I will see if I can find the article.

It had been mentioned that the boy had recently returned to living with his mom, does anyone report why he was living with other family members prior?

Also, is there any mention of the SD having a previous record? Is there anyway to find out?

I've been checking both all morning - maybe a local could chime in on which one would be the best.

It's been hinted that mom may have had substance abuse issues.

media is reporting "parents" and the "babysitter" are POIs and being questioned - like there's 3 diff. people....but who really knows, IMO, until we hear directly from LE about what role the "babysitter" had in Jonathan's life.

Wjat happened to the mysterious ROOM MATE?

peeples · Dec 29, 2010

I want to know too Linda.. either that was info NOT supposed to be released or the reporter really screwed up some facts. it was kinda detailed so my guess is, it wasn't supposed to be released.
