"Suddenly I suspect the father again."
Yup. He's the first one I'd look at. But since they say the boy is not found afterall, you can't completely discount the idea that this sex offender acted on his own.
Of course, the fact that he stayed in the local community is very illogical.
It's almost as if this guy was playing some kind of game. Duncan didn't show for court on the same day the kids disappeared. The guy ripped down posters with the kids photos on them.
The more we find out the less likely it seems that the father was involved. On the other hand parents are often the most dangerouse people in a childs life.
Time will tell. I just wish I could believe that this would bring an end to NAMBLA and like minded groups.
