Where's Ben?

UPDATE- BOYS FOUND!

A white pick up, banged up with missing hubcaps and a matching cab on the back seems to be the only clue surrounding the disappearance of 13 year old William " Ben" Ownby. As the FBI has begun to investigate, and a profiler has been called into to present possible leads to what steps investigators might consider taking; Ben's father issued a heartfelt plea to whoever is responsible for his disappearance:
During a news conference held Thursday afternoon, Ben's father, Don Ownby, issued a plea to anyone who thinks or suspects they know something to come forward.

"It could be something to break this thing open for us," said Ownby.

Ownby said his son wants to go to college for computer programming and has already taken his first ACT test. He said Ben's the "perfect student and the perfect son.
[...]
"He has his whole life ahead of him ... let his family have him back."

The Springfield News-Leader - Jan 12 8:59 AM
Beaufort — Investigators think a stranger abducted 13-year-old Ben Ownby, but drawing a psychological profile of the kidnapper will take "quite some time," Franklin County Sheriff Gary Toelke said this morning. The strongest clue police have is a white pickup truck seen speeding from the scene of Ben's disappearance Monday afternoon. Toelke said time is a growing concern, as is approaching bad ...

Guided by practical experience and not theory, especially in medicine Kennedy hate crimes rider may doom Hatch's sex offender bill By Robert Gehrke The Salt Lake Tribune WASHINGTON - A fight over federal hate crimes legislation could torpedo Sen. Orrin Hatch's push to strengthen the nation's sex-offender registries and clamp down on sex crimes. The Senate Judiciary Committee gave quick, unanimous approval to Hatch's bill Thursday, clearing its way for consideration by the full Senate. But Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he plans to try to attach language to a bill that would require tougher sentences, provide federal assistance and offer grants to prosecute hate crimes - those motivated by hatred for a race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

Boyfriends...

I sometimes wonder if certain men have some sort of animal DNA breed into them. The type of DNA or whatever it is that makes animals ritually preform certain actions. Like lions, when a male lion takes over a pride it'll often kill the offspring of the previous male, before mating with the female lions and creating cubs of it's own. I only wonder this, because it seems like there are an overwhelming number of men out there that end up killing the children of their girlfriends, not all of them do- but on a case by case comparison between girlfriends killing their boyfriends offspring and boyfriends doing it, it just seems that it's a lot more common amoung men. NOT THAT ALL OF THEM DO THIS... there are some great boyfriends/stepfathers out there that actually take care of kids as if they are their own... but then we have cases like Christopher Thunborg and Kashon Scott. Thunborg was babysitting his girlfriend's 11 month of baby in March when police say he caused ...
