  I had heard the first story before and it still frustrates me to hear how so many adults botched watching a 3 year old. &nbsp;You dont just let a 3 year old run wild into the woods!

  A 3 year old is a baby. A toddler. A small child that needs constant adult supervision. &nbsp;Whichever adults agreed to let him go should have kept him with them at all times. Poor little kid.

  What kind of idiots take a kid EIGHTEEN MILES AWAY without letting his dad know their plans have changed?! They’re all somewhat responsible in my eyes. Jared’s dad almost definitely wouldn’t have let him go if he knew where they decided to go.

  Jaryd father, Allyn, passed away april 17 2025, after recovering from cancer, in Ohio. He worked as a teacher for 35 years, loved and appreciated by everyone. The pain of Jaryd missing and death was still there, very active in his christian community, he was a wise man who changed lives of many students. He is now reunited with Jaryd forever. RIP Jaryd and Allyn.

  That’s crazy to me that the fishermen didn’t wait with Jared until the group caught up. The kid was 3, seems like a lot of dumb adults in that story.

  When I was 8 years old I got lost in the Ozarks while on a Boy Scout camping trip. I was walking back from a spring we had been swimming in, the older kid who was supposed to be my “buddy” ran ahead and I wandered off the trail without realizing it. I was lost for about 4-5 hours, before finding a dried riverbed and following it and eventually finding a campground with people. It was one of the most terrifying experiences of my life, but humbling as well, as we are always at the mercy of the vastness and unpredictability of this planet.

  Mike I have a cousin Dava Leonard who has been missing for 3yrs in the Colorado mountains. You can easily find the news reports here on YouTube. Her older sister Miccha and I are the only ones still trying to find her, though we are almost certain what happened (she was lastseenwithherabusiveboyfriend) we try to keep her name and story fresh but it seems she isn&apos;t important to the authorities and her case is now considered a &quot;cold case&quot;. It would be awesome if you could do a video about Dava&apos;s case and get her story back out there to hopefully get justice for her and bring her home so we can give her a proper burial &nbsp;so her children, siblings, family and friends can have some sort of &nbsp;closure. We all appreciate you Mike for the hard work you do. Please give her &nbsp;Case a Gooo ❤

  It just doesn&apos;t make sense to me that two adults would see a 3 year old in the woods and just walk away like, &quot;Oh, I&apos;m sure he&apos;ll be okay.&quot; I&apos;m sorry, but this is one of the dumbest things I&apos;ve ever heard. Who in their right mind would leave an unaccompanied toddler IN THE WOODS without confirming he was 100% safe and not left ALONE period. WTH

  That first story is a classic case of <br>“There’s so many of us out here, SOMEONE is watching him” <br>And everyone was thinking that, so no one watched<br>I’m sure they all feel guilty as heck

  13 adults total and not one of them knew to keep a 3 year old with them? And the 11 adults whisked the kids to a completely different location without letting the father know? &nbsp;What the hell?

  Jaryd Atadero&apos;s father was my PE teacher in the 8th grade when this happened. I remember hearing about it one day in and Mr Atadero didn&apos;t come back to school for a long time. I just remember him being such a kind man to all of us. Wishing nothing but the best to him and their family.
