I just... Sebastian Rodgers. How, after JonBenet Ramsey, after Brianna Maitland, after, God, countless others, just so many other cases, the boy in the box even. The boy in the box thing was blown open before Sebastian disappeared. after all of these things, how is it that you still don't know how to control a crime scene? How is it that, like, this kid is reported missing.

It's immediately an Amber Alert. It was a, it wasn't, sorry, not immediately, but within a few hours, it was an Amber Alert. The police show up to the house. They do not detain the parents. They do not bring them in for questioning. They do not secure the home and make sure that nobody enters or exits. They allow people to clean up

They allow the family to clean up before they fully investigate it. They do not get scent tracking dogs out there. They get ground disturbance dogs. At every single point in that morning, they failed. Every single spot along the way. They allow, I mean, you allowed the two, the only person who was in the home when it happened, the mother, you allow her to leave town 20 days later.

2024, this is a year ago, and they've learned nothing. At what point do you sit back and say, there's a serious problem here? You know, maybe maybe the FBI needs some more funding. Well, so maybe you give them the money to say, hey, you're going to go to every single county in the country and do a lecture on this.

So that's that's what the project that I was involved in. That was part of their goal. But I'm realizing that a good thing for us to potentially look into. What is the actual level of training? that local and state departments receive. From what I understand, it's minimal.

Well, that's my point, is that it may just be in a position where all of these cases we're looking at are things that are not covered in basic training for these agencies.

Yeah. I mean, I don't know. Maybe I'm overzealous about it. Maybe I'm emotional because I've been involved in researching so many of these lately. But at a certain point, the way I see it is a child disappears from a home under mysterious circumstances and Without witnesses and the parents don't have alibis, they should be suspects immediately. It's like.

It should not be a matter of trying to coddle them or figure out if they're guilty first. Make them suspects, treat them like suspects. Yeah, it's going to suck if they're not. But at the same time, how many cases do we have to look at? That is the one downside of innocent and proven guilty. But the thing is, you're not arresting them. You're not throwing them in jail.

You're not saying they're guilty. You're just saying, I'm not going to do what we did with John Ramsey. I'm not going to do what we did with Chris Proudfoot. I'm not going to do what we did with Deer Koontz. I mean... With few exceptions, when we've looked at cases where kids disappeared, it seems very likely that the last person to see them alive was the person who did something to them.

I mean... It's just, it's too common. There's too much at stake. If a child disappears... look at the parents, especially if it's from the home.
