Boy on milk carton still missing after 30 years - Pedro Hernandez arrested.
Etan Patz Murder Case
It must be heartbreaking for the parents of this little boy (Now a man) not to be able to know what happened with him. I hope they can find closure by knowing exactly what happened with their son.
QUOTE NEW YORK (CNN) -- His was the first photo of a missing child to appear on a milk carton. Almost 30 years later, Etan Patz is still missing.
Etan was 6 when he disappeared on May 25, 1979, the Friday before Memorial Day. He was on his way to school in what is now the upscale Soho neighborhood of New York.
It was the first time he'd walked to the bus stop by himself. It was just a few blocks away. Etan, like any 6-year-old, argued that all of his friends walked to the bus stop alone, and his parents relented.
His mother, Julie Patz, learned that Etan hadn't been in classes when he failed to return home. She called the school at 3:30 p.m., then called the homes of all his friends. When no one had seen Etan, she called police and filed a missing person's report.
By evening more than 100 police officers and searchers had gathered with bloodhounds. The search continued for weeks, but no clues to Etan's whereabouts were found.
The boy's disappearance was one of the key events that inspired the missing children's movement, which raised awareness of child abductions and led to new ways to search for missing children. Etan's case was the first of the milk carton campaigns of the mid-1980s...

Case Murder Patz Etan
It is sad to know that your child could be a adult some where and you have not seen or heard from him since he was 6. We have a kid that disappeared when he was 12 Johnny Gosh was a newspaper delivery boy who went missing one morning. He has been gone since 1976 I think. His mother still does not know what happened to him either.
