Dr. Phil Show Hosts Missing Portland Child Kyron Horman’s Step Mom Terri Horman Over Two Episodes

I have been covering this case since Kyron Horman disappeared from Skyline School in June, 2010.    Like most missing persons cases I have covered in the past,  I am of the strong opinion that best efforts at the truth are the only way to propel investigations that, similarly to Kyron’s, have gone cold for one reason or another.   This approach has worked in resolving some of my previous cases.    I am proud of that.  I remain steadfast to the integrity involved in those and future cases.

Over the past 10 months (or so) I have been developing an updated series on Kyron’s case to include my multiple interviews with Kyron’s step-mom,  Terri Horman.   Needless to say as she was the subject of at least three simultaneous cases before an Oregon court and remains a person of interest by the agency investigating her sons disappearance, this has been an arduous and sometimes delicate journey.    Ms. Horman’s experiences during the ongoing investigation of the disappearance of Kyron Horman are critically important to propelling his case and with great hope- finding the truth about what happened to this cherubic and innocent child.    There are dozens of sources,  collateral interviews, forensic experts and legal analysts that also contribute to my series and have done so because of their belief that my motivation is to bring to light information and opinions in such a way that would almost “require” a focused review of Kyron’s case and the likely shaking of that proverbial tree everyone talks about.

Set to publish about 6-ish weeks ago I was asked to postpone the first installment of the series, which I did.  I subsequently learned Ms. Horman was participating in the Dr. Phil program after she completed taping.  Dr. Phils producers were well aware that Ms. Horman had interviewed with me extensively, and anticipated my series would be publishing information that was not known to the public previously in the days prior to her scheduled episode.    When Ms. Horman conveyed to me that she feels obligated to speak out about “her son” in any national medium that will have her,   I most certainly respected that.  I still do.

While Dr. Phil seems like a gregarious fellow for sure,   I have zero interest in being associated with his program, nor do I believe his shows content is designed to do any furtherance of investigation or truth.  There is much concern (although I have no affiliation to the show whatsoever) that the timing of the publication of my series on the Kyron Horman matter might be interpreted differently or inadvertently contribute to the programs content or audience reactions.     Not what I signed on for.   A missing 7 year old boy six years running is not a framework for entertaining a target audience.   He is not fodder for online social media bully campaigns- yet it occurs.

I will be publishing my series on Kyron’s case at a later date, in it’s entirety with no editing adjustments as a result of any of the appearances on Dr. Phil.   I appreciate your patience and your understanding.   Feel free to discuss the show below.

    So I have a question if TMH, Is innocent and had absolutely nothing to do with Kyron disappearing then why won’t she go and talk to the police department. Even with Attorney at her side?? Or perhaps Take another polygraph.
    She failed 2 and walked out on a 3rd didn’t she??

    I have a very simple answer for you Melissa- because in over 6 years, Terri Horman has never once been asked to meet with investigators. Not once. I don’t know about you, but that question is one for MCSO. Terri Horman is willing to meet with investigators at their request through her attorney at any time- they have not asked her.

    That polygraph information is incorrect, although I admit it has been circulated for years. Welcome to BOC, I appreciate you asking for facts.

    @T Ruth,

    I went up the back stairs because they are less traveled and easier to carry a toddler on one hip and a diaper bag on the other shoulder. Kyron and I were racing to see who would get to the top first. He won. As usual. :)

    Thank you Terri, a very nice normal 7 year old moment to think about.

    Seems clear after they broke up in 12/14, Kerin disclosed to B Wlliams.
    Unbeknownst to him, Marshall did too & suggested he inform OGC.
    He didn’t inform on tge 2 of them.
    After a ouple montgs, when nothing happened to Marshall, Kerin wrote DC himsslf and the
    S— hit the fan. A triumverate of her DC supervisors called her and grilled her on speakerphone,
    blindsiding her. Not a good way for her DC Supv to proceed initially. Whatever unrelated issue
    DC interviewed her about re Kerin in 8/15, that she told him he needed a lawyer for, I assume that was his reason to bed her, then get rid of her. Iirc he was taken off Drug prosecutions about then.

    Soldier–Volunteer WITH The Family (Kaine needs a disclaimer out there after her self-characterization)–and fellow tiny platoon of foot soldiers are quite upset with Teri’s sharing a fond memory of her last everyday mothering of Kyron and are using it as Proof of her Plot.

  7. Melissa says:

    Then can you please explain this to me??

    Alexander provided a statement from the offices of the county district attorney and sheriff, as well. It reads, in full:

    “Kyron Horman’s parents and members of the public should know that the investigation into Kyron’s disappearance is active, ongoing and includes a recent search effort. Ms. Horman has an open invitation to speak with MCSO.
    “The Multnomah County District Attorney’s was in contact with defense attorney Stephen Houze earlier this week and was advised that he continues to represent Terri Horman. Mr. Houze requests no contact with Ms. Horman by law enforcement absent his authorization and her consent.”

    Sure. When my office and then subsequently Dr. Phil’s producers contacted MCSO and the District Attorney for an official comment re some of the statements made by Ms. Horman, specifically, that in over 6 years her counsel nor she have ever been contacted for an interview (and provided many, many direct quotes and statements from Ms. Young and attributable to Mr. Horman suggesting she “will not” meet with them or “that MCSO AND FBI investigators are waiting to speak to her” ) this statement from Capt Alexander was the response. Let’s break this down. When I tried to verify it – it turns out it is absolutely NOT a joint statement at all, to include the DA’s office, and nobody there is even owning that comment in the first place. Yes, that’s correct- I don’t know if it was intentional BS or what, but I can tell you unequivocally that Mr. Houze has not been asked to schedule a meeting for MCSO or the DA to interview Terri Horman to date, period. Feel free to not take my word for it and call MCSO and MCDA and ask yourself.

    Let me repeat this part- MCSO nor the DA has requested an interview with Terri Horman since June 30th 2010.

    I prwviously posted on this when kewl posted before an eyewitness’s FB account.
    This is About Marshman, selected for Chief in part bcz he’d been PPB’s liaison with DOJ to implement remedies ordered in the DOJ caseagainst PPB, calling in the regional Joint Terrorism Task Force LE assets to “restore and keep public order. That brought in PPB & swat teams of ppb and I expect mcso (jails on alert), hsa, local DA (prosectors ready to charge), FBI and so on. Mashman did it to intimidate the Council with his JTTF powers as much as the demonstrators imo. And he succeeded. He’s a weak Chief who needed to deliver this contract for his Unions as Wheeler woukd’ve been way harder to negotiate with. This was as much an act to bring the Council into compliance with ppb as the drmonstrators, and it worked. I suggested he was doing on a public institution scale what he did with his stepson at home (beat him).

    Thank you but was the central issue causing that mess?

  11. A Texas Grandfather says:

    All this noise about the handling of a contract with City Council is exactly why Government entities should never be allowed to unionize.

    The people loose the necessary input and control when a union represents government workers. A union and a company makes sense as the two parties can negotiate on an equal basis. The government is for representing the people and the people have a final say. To push them aside with LE is government attacking the people.

  12. Rose says:

    It is nice to see Melissa here, and with a different quilt color than purple. I think her question is common to most lay people who have no legal training or professional experience with the criminal justice system. And, the Alexander statement would be entirely believeable when on its face it was clear when mcso released this, making Underhill look stupid (what was it Staton said about Underhill again?) when it was untruthful BS as to the DA. The DA knew if Houze was no longer repping Terri, Houze would send him a copy of his letter to Terri withdrawing representation. Any DA knows they cannot contact any person of interest who has engaged an attorney without going to and through the attorney. Or it’s a Bar violation. Underhill doesn’t wantthe incompetents at mcso to get him disbarred over this case.
    Moreover, no LE would ever seek to speak to a person of interest (formal or informal one) without their lawyer present. It would RUIN their case. So this talk on the hater crater and by Desiree of TErri just dropping in is so far off the mark, if she did that, whatever deputy she meets at the door better put her in a cab to fetch her attorney.

    It’s also not how the process works at all. Unless MCSO is corrupt as hell, and it may be, every deputy who wants to interview a represented person as a matter of course….the ordinary course of business….picks up the phone and calls their attorney and says bring your client it, I can make it on x y and z days and times, how about you? this is done is all criminal investigations. To pretend Terri is a special case goes against routine mcso policies (I hope policy is codified for these deputies that is.)

    I remember the senior project about 2009 a Caitlin Gabel girl wrote up from “riding” with a river patrol deputy. He told her he would teach her how to interview a criminal. He went to the man’s home, picked him up, and drove him to an “office” at the river patrol location. I don’t recall how much of the interview she sat in on, but it was a joke. What the deputy taught her was how never to handle criminal suspects (ie ride ALONE in the car with them to haul them in to talk).

    I don’t think people who read the hater crater from other areas know how poorly mcso has been run for decades and that it is more common than not to violate ordinary criminal procedures. I bet DA Underhill wanted Staton gone so badly, and has been one of the few to endorse M Reese for Chief, not because Staton made fun of him and called him names, but because mcso deputies have screwed up the prosecution of cases for him he would otherwise like to have brought.

    —————

    I think Houze is telling MCSO that If they want to schedule a questioning session for TH then he (Houze) must be present so MSCO cannot question TH without her attorney present. Since some of the past interview methods of the DA and MCSO have been questionable in this case (the landscaper Rudy being a prime example) I don’t blame Houze for wanting to protect his client from MSCO. Without her lawyer at the interview MCSO could hint to the media that TH made statements that she did not make or lie to and or threaten TH in order to get her to say what they want her to say.

    If it was me I would not go anywhere near MSCO without my lawyer. They have lost a lot of face over this case and are desperate to say they have a suspect. MCSO also believes that using the media to try and ruin TH’s life as well as keeping her away from her daughter will somehow reveal what happened to Kyron.

    IMO MCSO is not interested in questioning TH if her lawyer is present so after checking with her attorney to see if they could side step him and finding out they could not MCSO has decided that they do not want to question TH.

    The assertion was that a member of the DA’s office contacted Houze, not MCSO. I can tell you without reservation that if true- and as I said nobody is owning it, that a member of the DA office is completely capable and aware they would need to request an interview from ANY represented persons Atty. The follow up should be- why would a prosecutor (say as opposed to an investigator from MCSO) be reaching out to Houze instead of MCSO in the first place? The last time anyone requested to speak to Horman outside the presence of her Attorney and that was granted, was Norm Frink. He threatened her. He made good on his threat. Not sure if anyone has been following CA law lately- but I expect similar legislation to hit most states- It is a felony to commit prosecutorial misconduct. Be clear- this will dramatically change the face of criminal investigation and prosecution in this country.

    wrt “I have a very simple answer for you Melissa- because in over 6 years, Terri Horman has never once been asked to meet with investigators. Not once. I don’t know about you, but that question is one for MCSO. Terri Horman is willing to meet with investigators at their request through her attorney at any time- they have not asked her”

    I don’t think the folks on HC understand criminal procedure. No one goes to a PD with or without their attorney and says “I want my interview.” a Law enforcement officer has to contact the person, through their lawyer if they are known to have one, and ask them to come in. That is just the way the system works. Desiree knows this with her husband’s job. I can understand Kaine’s naivitee about criminal process and investigations, but not Desiree’s. So the question is, why is she deliberately misleading simple goodhearted people (despite their profanity and vulgarities and lack of knowledge or desiring to find it, I would like to think they are well-intended followers of Soldier) about ordinary investigatory processes? (On the other hand, it’s kinda like teenagers from Wisc flying to Syria to follow the head of ISIS). Can’t they see Soldier and Tom are mentally ill?

    Nothing–not hopefully former medical issues, not her hatred and jealousy of Terri over Kaine or Kyron’s closeness to her, not vindictiveness fully explains her chronic dissemination of untruths and misleading the public over simple matters like alluding that it is desireable and would even be wanted by mcso to interview Terri but Terri refuses.

    I would also like to add that DDS(2013) went to MCSO the testified before the Grand Jury for 5 hours and then took and passed a Lie Detector test given by MCSO/DA ( and believe me if she would have failed the LDT she would have been charged with lying to the Grand Jury). It has not made any difference in her life as far as stalkers and media abuse is concerned. So I can’t see any reason why TH would ever want to talk to MCSO without her lawyer present.

    She spoke to LE, sometimes for up to 10 hours at a clip, for an estimated 60 plus hours in June, 2010. Not one time did she ever refuse an interview or say, an FBI agent with her 24/7. No less than 5-6 DA members or cops at her home all day everyday as well and these “professionals” are no closer to finding this child over 6 years later.
    News Flash- she never knew where he was, does not now and MCSO and the DA are naked. WTF?

  16. erose says:

    Melissa,

    I am not sure how long you have been reading here, so I don’t want to assume that you know that MCSO has been a real shit show under Staton’s regime, and he “retired” this year under the most dubious circumstances. If you go back thru the previous threads on Kyron you will see the systemic corruption in the agency. Or you can google his name “Dan Staton MCSO + lawsuits or + whistleblowing, for example.

    This makes people like me wonder why the biological parents of Kyron have not come to their senses about how poorly handled their child’s investigation was, (as exampled by how poorly Staton did his job in general) and why they, and only they can demand the case turned over to another agency, like the FBI, who is equipped to disseminate fact from rumor and local speculation in order to find out what happened to Kyron.

    A child went missing from a public school, on a day when strangers had opportunity to come and go freely and without accountability. For six years people have gotten no where closer to finding this child, but continue to blame his stepmother and where are we? Not one step closer to finding him.

    Where is your concern about the school’s accountability for Kyron’s disappearance? Where is your concern about the corruption of the agency that investigated his case for six plus years? Where is your concern about Kyron’s biological parents not holding the school or law enforcement accountable? I wonder if people really want to find Kyron, or if they just want to fry Terri?

  18. Rose says:

    Blink, our minds are not devious enough for the likes of mcso, though they are so think imo this tactice with Terri and dissemination of false info was designed by an attorney in tge SA’s office.

    See http://www.oregonlaws.org/ors/133.400
    It explains everything.

    Essentially it is Oregon law every interview at a police facility MUST be electronically recorded.
    That means if the interviewer wanted to lie again to Terri, he does not want it on tape.
    There are exceptions.
    The exception fitting here is (2)(e)
    “A statement that was spontaneously volunteered and did not result from a custodial interview;”

    Now mcso cannot contact Houze or Terri and ask her to come in. because
    If they did it would not be “spontaneously volunteered” and recording = a requirement.
    So I expect mcso dictated the language to bios of what to say and how to pressure Terri so she’d just
    spontaneously volunteer for an interview to clear herself as Desiree suggested would be the result. How devious of mcso to front the bios to chide Terri into volunteering. The fact mcso has been geared 6 years to set up Terri to escape this must record mandate is ominous for her. But Houze knew this statute and is requining mcso to call her in so her interview is not a voluntary no recording is necessary exception. Reminds me of the Michael Cook shell game.

    Just fyi a custodial interview pertains to when someone is in custody or defacto custody.

Plenty of folks must be aware of these sightings, because how the heck would this stay quiet for so long? How has it not been leaked? Weird.

    Then “Terri was the last to be seen with him” repeated over and over and over by the media. Was SZ working with someone that could be confused with Terri? I know we’ve thrown that spaghetti against the wall, but I never put too much stock in it.

    Terri, have you heard anything on a possible description of SZ? Were you asked to help in the putting together of the list of attendees at the science fair? Do you know/did you see anyone that day that resembled you?

    My kids attended a similarly sized El Ed school and if asked to list who I saw there on any given open house-type day, I would find the task incredibly difficult.

    Council Members had issues with the Black Lives Matter people speaking at the previous council meeting and forcibly removed some speakers, concerning the discussions about the Police Contract by the mayor. (The contract isn’t due for renewal for another year!)

    This Council Meeting was to approve the Police Contract. They had that huge show of force, when LE discovered before the meeting, people planned to hold a ‘sit in’ protest at the City Hall. A lot of citizens were not happy about getting booted out of the building, not just the BLM folks. Even media was shoved out (as you can see in the videos).

    In a rational Council meeting, irrational disruptive individuals would be escorted out by staff or security guards.
    There were no policy violations. iirc at the first such CC mtg on the Contract, the Council eliminated altogether a previously scheduled period for Public Comment on the Contract. That angered those who’d planned to testify, so some commented out of order when the PC period was eliminated.

    Swat teams and 70 riot gear officers = an operation of the Joint Terrorism Task Force at the request of Marshman to restore public order, but these protestors are too poorly led to realize actions of the JTTF in a setting crying out for the Public Comments the Council barred on the proposed K was in this case the public’s opponent. This incident tells me this Council and Marshman are oerfectly willing to omit ordinary government process when self interest (a raise to win over his employees’ hearts) is at issue.

    One of the posters on Stacey’s WS Facebook page ask why LE did not just give Terri immunity so she would at least say where Kyron was so he could come home. Stacey’s answer was never. That says to me that the purpose of her WS Facebook page is not to bring Kyron home but rather to exact revenge against Terri. I mean as long as they are making Terri and Dede miserable who really cares where Kyron is.

    So not only is Stacey not interested in where Kyron might be She really doesn’t even care about finding out what happened to him. And Stacey has the nerve to repeat over and over never give up. She gave up on ever finding Kyron long ago and is now only interested in blaming Terri, exacting revenge and promoting her Facebook.

    IMO
    I think Stacey is trying to get enough likes on her WS page to be able to profit from paid advertising.

    just out of curiosity did all of these people have to go through the metal detectors scanners to get into the Portland city hall? Or do they not have scanners and metal doctors at the Portland city hall. I haven’t been there in a long time. Maybe they all fit in the portion of the room in front of the scanners. My point is couldn’t all these people making noise and trying to squeeze into the city hall constitute a security risk for people working there. Maybe thats why in the street was tolerated but inside city hall was not.

    erose

    Your reply to Melissa raises a question about the bios and their concern or lack thereof to not give up the effort to find Kyron falls primarily on Kaine Horman. He is not an ignorant person for if he was he could not have held the job at Intel. A concerned father should have given MCSO ninety days to get some leads and then forced the agency to turn it over to the state police or the FBI.

    IMO there two reasons that he has not done so. First there is some possibility that Terri exposed his steroid use and perhaps some in the MCSO employees and Two he really wanted to get rid of Terri for exposing him and Kyron’s abduction provided the avenue of blaming her for the event. Kane with the help of MCSO worked the court system with his lawyer to make it impossible for a fair hearing and judgement regarding the divorce. Thus, Kaine did not have to pay child support, just as he figured out a way to not pay it for Kyron.

    In addition, LE and the court system has made Terri’s life painful and even prevented her from obtaining work.

    Count me in that stat. If TH was on security camera in a store when Kyron was abducted, then she did not physically take him. Find out who physically took him, and then see if there is a trail that leads back to TH. So simple really, Focus on the abductor which we know from witness accounts and her alibi could not be TH. Why, it seems, doesn’t anyone, with the exception of our minority, care to find out who this guy is? S M H.

    You will find we are in 100% agreement. I think I can speak for most if not all on BOC that NOBODY has ever cared where the evidence would lead- as long as it led directly to Kyron.
    B

    CD, I totally agree with you, That’s what I meant in my last sentence, do they want Kyron or TH?

    ATG, You are right, KH has the means and presumably the motivation, and the intelligence to bring about the efforts needed in this case, and I believe TY would know his way around a police investigation, too. What a shame.

    Right. This leads me back to Kaine’s (what I consider) true statement about “there is something LE does no know, someone else involved”. Was it short on clarity and did he miss the boat when directly asked about “an unidentified man”? Yes. He had motivations to keep the focus on TMH, imo.

    Point is- as I have been saying (and reporting) for years, it was KNOWN to investigators since the early days of investigation that Kyron was last seen with SZ. Last seen by multiple witnesses, but moreover, the verified timeline, and when I say verified, I am referring to MULTIPLE verifications of the recorded variety (not just witness) showing Kyron did not leave with TH, was seen by multiple witnesses at the school (Kyron) after she left and LE has zero doubt Kyron did not leave that school with TMH.

    Ergo, any theory of her involvement (which obviously lacks any evidence but since when does that matter to the angry villagers) has to start with that fact. Someone removed Kyron from Skyline – and it is a physical impossibility that it was TMH. Why wouldn’t the focus be on identifying that individual if the singular goal is locating this child?

    Add to that- we now have a contemporary example that Desiree Young knows well (and has met his Mom) of how misdirection and poor investigation efforts and skills can protract an investigation for decades, stalk the wrong suspect and allow a dangerous criminal predator free to re offend. Jacob Wetterling.

    To her credit, Patty Wetterling was never involved in any finger pointing or certainly not any hater crater “type” activity, but how was Heinrich and Jacob’s recovery not a wake up call to these people?

    Seventy SWAT officers in riot gear guarding city hall for a council meeting is nothing more than a show of force to scare the people into not doing anything.

    Portland has a corrupt government and it is not new. It has been corrupt for a very long time. The people don’t matter other than to pay taxes to keep the corrupt government in power.

    Until the people make enough noise to try and eliminate the corruption, nothing will change. The corruptocrats will continue to abuse their power and the people.

  36. Rose says:

    wrt “and LE has zero doubt Kyron did not leave that school with TMH”
    Knowing this, why has Desiree repeatly said Kyron left with Terri?
    That as misdirecting as a parent can get. Flat out untruthful.

    I dont know. I do know she is aware Kyron did not leave with Terri and has been aware of that since at least August 2010.

    Re: School Scrutiny
    What teacher was rumored to be leaving on 6/1?
    Why does the school go haywire when principal not there?

    I find teachers FB pages shortly before and shortly after June 4 interesting.
    See FB conversation on June 1, for example, by B. G.,the teacher who made comment about “dressing in drag again” for auction:

    Brian Gardes
    Just found out one of the teachers is leaving my school.June 1, 2010 at 9:49pm

    It is also the day everything at a school goes haywire.June 3, 2010 at 10:36am via iPhone

    http://scaredmonkeys.net/index.php?topic=9317.740

    Question one that I have is, wouldn’t the IB person doing the reviewing be there on THAT day when a bunch of parents and siblings weren’t running around? If so, why would Keefer not be?
    The other question I have is what went haywire on June 3rd, that would have been/or should have been Keefer’s responsibility? BTW, there was more to that conversation, something IIRC about Susan Hall taking care of all the work for Keefer or handling things. Whatever it was happened in the morning.

    **************

    Also, someone asked if it was possible that there was someone at school that day that resembled TMH? I specifically recall looking at a photo of Skyline’s last day of school at the back of some readhead’s head who resembled TMH in the auditorium, the photo’s link used to be on the same link above, but I can’t seem to get it now.

    If I were Kaine Horman’s grandfather my advice to him would be to quit being a hard headed fool. It is time you did the right thing regarding finding your child. You lost him because the school people didn’t properly protect the children in their care. That is the point of beginning in finding him, not in a divorce court in an effort to punish Terri for a selfish motive.

    You and the lawyers, LE and the court have enabled you to destroy the relationship with Kiara’s biological mom. Someday she may learn the truth and when she does the child is going to make you responsible for for your acts. This could forever distance her from you and make her disown being your child. Are you willing to loose all your children? Kyron may are may not be alive. You nor anyone else can solve this abduction and know for certain unless you change your behavior.

    Someday you will or could be a grandfather where your grandchildren are happy to be around you and make you a part of their lives. The course you have taken is NOT conducive to having that happen.

    Yup.

  44. Quizzical says:

    There seems to be a lot of confusion about entrance/exit designations as North/South/East/West. Since descriptions of various exits Kyron might have taken or might have been seen at were the perception of the describers, we may never know which exit they were indicating without more detailed information.

    In the images below I think it reasonable to describe e2 as South, e1/e7 as East, e8/e9/e10 as West, and e3/e4/e5/e6 as North. I suppose one could say e2/e1/e8 are all South exits as they are south or on the south end of the East or West walls. A bit more obscure would be describing e8 (and e9/e10) as North since given the actual orientation of the school they are facing more North than South.

    I rotated the first image below so that vertical on the screen would be very close to North-South.

    The following includes narratives of Kyron sightings and various entrance/exit references. They have been variously retracted, modified, or disputed partially or in whole.

    Oregonlive (Staton): 9am male student seeing Kyron near the south entrance.

    Sassifrass (SM): Request to help carry, separately, “another man that left with a child in the north door and Easter Mathews nodded”, and note: “Susan Hall was standing outside the North entrance”

    Blink Article: “… he looked at Ms. Matthews for approval and she nodded her head yes in response. They walked out of the South entrance together … “

    Blinks response to VW: “… It was the North emergency exit door next to CR109.”

    Kyron seen by a student near the south entrance at 9 a.m.

    8:15 a.m. Gina Zimmerman, president of the school PTA, arrives and sees Kyron with his stepmother in front of his exhibit.

    8:45 a.m. Terri Horman leaves after watching Kyron walk toward his classroom after touring the science fair.

    9 a.m. Kyron is reportedly seen by a student near the south entrance of the school, according to Sheriff Dan Staton, who says that was the last time the boy was seen. Multnomah County authorities later backtrack on that statement.

    http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2015/05/kyron_horman_timeline_of_event.html

    Once notified, Multnomah County authorities responded swiftly, but crucial hours already had been lost, Sheriff Dan Staton said.

    “This is what is hugely disturbing to me,” he told The Oregonian on Saturday. “The fact that you had a child in school and the last time the child was seen is at 9 in the morning — there are concerns about that lag time. If the child had walked away from the school, the likelihood of finding him under those circumstances would have been extremely high.

    “After five hours,” the sheriff said, “you know as well as I do how far a child could walk on a roadway.”

    http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2010/06/kyron_horman_search_may_have_s.html

    During police interviews Sunday, a student said he last saw Kyron later that morning near the south entrance to the school. That was the last time the boy was seen, Staton said.

    I have several things I have to post.

    So, this is what we need to look at.

    Description of male seen with Kyron: Male, late 20′s to mid 30′s, physically fit. possibly with some facial hair. *** Edited in: [This man was a person that walked in the school and asked a child, that looked like and probably was Kyron (who was in the electronic display room looking down at the table), to go outside and help him carry stuff in from his for him. He DID NOT look like a parent.He, reluctantly went. This could explain the rumors of Kyron being seen carrying something into the school. That person was not seen again. Don't forget the white truck that a BOC posted about pointing towards skyline blvd.

    Please remember that some of Terri's friends were in that age range of late 20's to mid 30's. I can't give you a better description because that's all I was given.] ***

    —————————–

    From day one of the 2010/2011 Skyline school year, LE (?) had people sitting outside of the school and across the street at the church. I have pics and think I sent them to Klaas, but if I didn’t, I’ll send them to her to confirm. Who were they looking at or what were they looking for?

    —————————–

    There were 2 males in a maroon sedan car (looked Hispanic) parked in the back parking lot. Both appeared to look in their 20′s or 30′s. *** Edited in: [This was a separate , sighting that morning at approximately 8:33am or so. 2 men in a maroon sedan were sitting in the back parking lot blocking parked cars. They may or may not have been tied to the 1st paragraph man.] ***

    —————————–

    What ever anyone can dig up would help. For Kyron.

    *** Edited in: [One other thing I wanted to add was that there was another man that left with a child in the north door and Easter Mathews nodded at him as if she knew him. It didn't appear to be the same man as the first.

    Another snippet: Susan Hall was standing outside the North entrance at 8:30 am] ***

    [ End of Post Replied to ]

    —————————–

    I’m replying to my own post because of some questions on BOC. I realize I didn’t explain myself well so I’m going to jump in my own box above to explain. I’m not holding back any more. What is posted above in response to my post is the most precise info of that day on June 4th, 2010, when Kyron went poof. My extended info will be in blue.

    After this I am taking a step back to concentrate on my health. If you have further questions, you can email me.

    Blink,
    The “south” entrance is through the front doors to the school. The East entrance is to the parking lot that the busses would come in to, and a SZ leaving thru this door would have to walk past the main office. The NORTH doors, however are in the back of the school. One “north door” is in the middle of the school and would be between Kyron’s room and the Main Office. It leads to the playground, the basketball covered courts and some north parking spaces in front of an out building. Another NORTH door leads out to the same are thru the gym. A final north door, closer to the soccer field leads into the same areas thru the mechanical wing.

    A car could have been parked in that area once the 8:45 bell rang an might be unnoticed. The busses would have been gone by 8:45 and many parents would have left by then.

    I will send you some pictures of these doors.

    Thank you vw, I am aware, and I have pics of all the entrances and exits of the school. It was the North emergency exit door next to CR109.

    On the day of the abduction, the unidentified male is seen approaching the home at about 4:18 a.m. and departing at around 4:29 a.m. with something in his arms — presumably the victim.

    He held the six-year-old Cleveland victim for 17 hours and dropped her off a couple of miles from her home. She told authorities she rode in the front floorboard of her abductor’s car so she wouldn’t se where they were going and was taken to a residence. The victim was assaulted, but officials didn’t delve into more detail.

    Probably other folks here can answer this better then me. I gathered SZ is male and does not stand out from other Science Fair attendees. probably 30′s middle class dress. if there is a more detailed description I don’t believe it has been revealed here or by LE. And that is if the person he was seen with was SZ.

  48. Rose says:

    If ATG was Kaine’s grandfather, or even a man half as wise as he is,
    the family would not have been such a generational mess, meaning multiple divorces,
    molestation history. Neil’s treatment of Christopher after the Iraq war injuries, recounted in writing by Topher, was
    a “show no mercy” attitude to someone war injured (throw him out to live in a car) & may have come from Neil’s own rearing. And then Kaine copies Neil wrt Terri–show no mercy, throw her out.

    digging into an alibi of a man fitting witness’ descriptions?
