The boy who has been missing in Missouri since Monday(?) has been found. I've gotten so discouraged at these child abductions, and usually have no hope they'll be found alive after two days, let alone four or five. They also found another boy - who has been missing since 2002!! The abducter is (you guessed it) a convicted child molester.

Oh my goodness! I live in Missouri and somehow managed not to hear about this. It makes my heart feel especially happy when I hear a news story about a lost child being found - and extra especially so if they have been missing for a long time, since it seems rare that a child that has been missing that long is found alive. Thank goodness this little boy was found! And the one from 2002, that is just amazing! I'm so glad that he was still alive, although I can't imagine what he's been through in all that time. I hope that his family or the state will be able to provide him with some counselling. The poor kid :(

He will definitely be affected for the rest of his life.. that's many years... hope the offender gets just as many years.

I'm glad they found him and the other boy too. It is good to hear some good news for a change. I hope these boys can deal with what has happened and do something positive with their lives. They should put him away forever.

Yes, I keep hearing of child molesters and rapists getting off with probation!! Continuing to walk our streets.. It's just too crazy. such people, to me, have given up their rights to freedom. I am way more concerned for the rights of children to be safe than the rights of someone who would hurt, abduct or rape a child. They made their choice. so far from what I've heard, these boys seem to be in good health and so far spirits..
