The show “Unsolved Mysteries” did an episode on that kid and nothing ever came of it.

He is still known as the “Boy in the Box”.

Thanks for the link. I had never heard of the case.

I was aware of another case that was profiled on the Unsolved Mysteries show, a murder that took place in Mission Viejo. The teenager’s body was found on a dead end street , one week-end.

My daughter was a student at the local high school at the time and the word was that the boy had attended a party the night before at a condo that was purchased by a South American drug lord for his two teenagers, who lived their without any supervision to attend high school in the States.

Nothing more was ever learned, but people always thought that something happened at that party.
