The boy’s father told investigators that he put the child in the truck in November 2024 “to protect him” because his partner wanted to send the then 7-year-old to a psychiatric hospital, the prosecutor said.
Heitz said there was no medical record that the boy had any psychiatric problems before he disappeared and that he had had good grades in school.
The boy told investigators that he had “big difficulties” with his father’s partner and thought his father “had no choice” but to lock him up, according to the prosecutor. He said he hadn’t showered since 2024.
Jesus. Intentionally did that to his kid as a “punishment”.
Always check the back seat if you have young kids! Make it a habit every time you get out of your vehicle, but especially if you think you won’t drive again for a couple of years.
Good call, but this “dad” did it intentionally for two years.
His father needs to be “detained” in a wood chipper, feet first.
I think we put him in a van for ten years. Wood chipper would be too kind.
Or at least in a utility van
Jesus
