Speaker 1 (00:05):
On September, Darren Glass went missing. Darren Glass age ten,
height fifty seven inches, weight seventy pounds. Darren is an
orphan and has a history of running away. He's done
it twice before and told some playmates last Sunday that
he was going to do it again. That day, Darren

(00:27):
left his Foster home along Memorial Drive to go watch
the Atlanta Braves. He plays over there all the time.
We'll watch a little little friend. So he's religious, HOTEI
Are you worried about him? She is, but you just
think he's gonna eventually come up. He is up. What

(00:49):
concerns us is the fact that this child has been
missing five days. He was seen getting off the church
bus after the game ended. So far police have no
leads at all, but they say this case is now
top priority. We're trying to find any information concerning his whereabouts,
the way he possibly may be. At this point, we

(01:09):
feel that it's deal very possible that Darren Glass could
be alive, safe and well at some place. It was
assumed Darren had gone outside to play for the rest
of the day, but he never returned home. Today, the
searchers took the form of a canvas here in Darren's
old neighborhood, where searchers went door to door seeking out
Darren's old friends who might be able to offer some

(01:30):
new information. And you represent a parallel story. One story
is the tragedy that is afflicting our children, and the
other story is your response in this time of adversity.

(01:51):
And you don't think he's been kidnapped. I shall know
you live on his own, You love on his own
because he won't leave so at you communicated this to
the police and all the other agents. I've told he
lived caused he wanted to go. And that's it. And
I'm tired of the whole down, said Jason. You think
people are making too much day, I'm making too bigger.

(02:12):
It's you, old bol one thing would not be out
doing damn. Now. The Denmarks is seventh month that we've
been conducting these searches, and I think it has taken
a lot of wear and tear out of a lot
of people. Publicity about the ten year old boy and
the widespread use of his picture did not help investigators.

(02:35):
By Sunday they were finding a lot of people who
thought they saw him. I'm satisfied that they have saying,
someone that obviously looks a tremendous amount like uh Darren
does whether or not as Darren, I can't say it,
we can't say, and we're not really prepared to make

(02:56):
a judgment. All night yet they combed the woods, sifted
through debris, and bagged what they thought might be evidence.
But slowly, as the searchers found nothing, interest dwindled and
the throng thinned to just a few. Now the search
is at an end, a long victim that has never

(03:18):
been found, as Darron Glass, never found, never found to
this day, to this day, Atlanta Monster coming January five,
