This story broke locally a few days ago and at first I was hesitant to believe that it was for real.
Sadly, it turns out that it is true. These slimeballs held a teen prisoner for more than a year and did things to him that I hesitate to post.
Clearly there will need to be a lot of investigation as to how some of this slipped through the cracks of the system that was supposed to protect him.
While we obviously offer prayers and hope for the full recovery of this young man, it is also worth remembering that part of the story is that the teen was seen in the neighborhood for the whole year. The neighbors say all looked normal, but the fact remains that he never went to school, never left the property, never participated in local activities. That should have rung a few alarm bells.
So while I hardly want you to all run to the police every day, if you see something that is suspicious or odd, please err on the side of caution.
And pray for Kyle.
