My bet is MURDER/SUICIDE or just plain MURDER.

They find the womans minivan in puget sound then find the boys body. He drowned accidentaly according to the autopsy. I wonder how that was determined? But they have yet to find the woman or her body. She may have done the boy in and then lambed out.

Read about it here:

Yeah, makes you wonder. The mother was a lush and had open wine bottles in the van. And the van was only partially submerged. Plus there's a previous history of child abuse accusations against her boyfriend and her. Very suspicious.

So I wonder who moved away, it sounds like he lived far away.  He uses the word "let" when describing being allowed to visit again, as if the boy was taken away rather than the father not bothering. I would like the whole story.

IIRC, he flew in from New York to help in the search. Sad story all around.
