It was too obvious that there was "more to this story". From the moment he went missing, everything seemed very strange.

How do you define a "good kid"? If your definition excludes any teenager that has bad habits or makes mistakes then the list would be very small. It most-likely wouldn't carry any names by that standard.

Testimony given by his girlfriends dad and his peers suggest that he had a good heart. He had a job, went to school and to the best of our knowledge is ONLY guilty of crimes where he is his own victim. I admit that going over to a friends house to "smoke some pot" nullifies his application for Saint-hood but he still qualifies as a "good kid" by my standards.
