Yeah, I’m not surprised. I’d imagine an experience like being kidnapped would really change someone. Glad the little fella’s made it back to his family.
-Ken M
Oh shit, is Ken M still around?
that’s his signature, proof enough for me
God I wish, lol. Pretty sure he’s long since retired.
This headline just inspired me to channel his spirit, lol.
Man, and the kid they DID bring back they basically stole from another family.
The cops just found a guy who was on a trip repairing pianos with a kid that slightly looked like the one they were looking for. They arrested him and took the kid. Even when the mother came to town to attest that it was her kid, they gave her the run around and, since she was too poor to fight it in court, stole her kid. Those kids didn’t even look anything alike… People nowadays don’t seem too bright on average, but I think maybe people back then were extra stupid.

This American Life did a full episode on this.
i’m suprised no one seems to have point-blank asked him who his parents were in court, or if they did why that wasn’t the beginning and end of the case
Because he was a four year old boy, I reckon.
