hours early he says well i'm not with the kids what do you mean you're not with the kids how you know with the kids then who's watching the kids the kids can't watch the kids we're the kids and he says well i'm at the hospital right now why are you at the hospital oh i um i fell off the ladder what how did you fall off the ladder what were you doing well i was doing some housework and i had fallen off the ladder so i've got a family friend who's watching the kids don't worry the kids are safe and i'll call you later and he just hangs up on her so she starts freaking out she doesn't know what to do she calls up her diverse attorney and she's like is this the same thing happening again and the attorney tells her there's nothing legally you can do until the arranged time passes so if you had agreed upon NUMBER_TOKEN pm you can't start freaking out yet because it's not NUMBER_TOKEN p.m so she says okay i'll wait an hour passes and another and finally NUMBER_TOKENpm rolls around and the kids are still not with john and now john is barely picking up the phone so she storms on over to john's place with the police and she realizes that the front door you can't even open it with a key because there is this giant wooden board that's blocking it so the stairway let's say the stairway is here so the wooden board is like jammed up between the stairs does that make sense the wall of the stair and then the front door so it's like you can't push it in it's not just standing there so they blocked it yeah someone had blocked it from the inside so the police decide well let's kick down the door so they do and the whole inside of the house was a wreck there were computers thrown about there was cables that were cut like the cables weren't even just messy they were cut the whole place had been ransacked mirrors in bathrooms were just broken and smashed that's weird so they start kind of freaking out right the police get the press involved because i mean time is of the essence we need as many volunteers as possible we need their faces out there these kids faces how do three brothers just disappear john is in the hospital at this point so he's not really much of help the police get the press involved and everyone's thinking what at first everyone in michigan is thinking where the hell is morenci because it's that small of a town like it's that small of a town and it's a border town so it's literally on the border of ohio and michigan right so they find out okay it's a small town then it must be a mistake crime doesn't really happen in these small places there's no pedophiles i mean think about it if your population is like a couple hundred you really think there's a bunch of pedophiles lurking around it's a numbers game right that's what people are thinking i think probably there's still a lot of pedophiles right because we're skeptical people here so they start volunteering um i think there were about like hundreds of volunteers at one point for this tiny small town the firefighters got involved fbi got involved and they gave
