(and an updated list, put out recently): http://www.kirotv.com/gallery/news/washington-states-missing-children/gCCpK/#3735554
and another, from a few days ago, some kids thankfully marked 'recovered': http://www.wsp.wa.gov/crime/mischild.php
I found this article back in February while sleuthing the Travis Padgett case, where Padgett was arrested for feeding meth to minors and pimping them out to a bunch of creepy female child molesters. Horrible story...
Anyway, I was so concerned about the idea of this creep prostituting minors for meth that I went looking for missing kids in Yakima, WA. What I found was this article - and was immediately stunned by the sheer volume of children missing from foster homes.
Is it a coincidence that the foster kids are almost all very good-looking? Are these kids simply runaways, or are they being abducted/recruited for more sinister purposes?
Also, I'd really like to know if Washington has an abnormal number of kids missing from foster homes, or if this is average for all states. It just seems like a LOT of foster kids missing in 2012/2013...
Where ARE they? Have some been found? Are they all still missing? What?
So here, I plan to do the following:
Dedicate a post to every child on that list, including those not in foster care. In that post, I'd like all news reports, missing persons links, everything that can be sleuthed, including links to threads here on WS if there is one.
If anyone would like to "adopt" a child on the list to research, please - do!
I intend to start my quest with Adrian Makiah Dillon, aka 'Pandora' - who is probably 18 now, so I'm guessing nobody much is giving a carp as far as Govt agencies go... He just looks like a kid who desperately needs some love and care, so I'm starting with him.
