Re: If anyone wants to help look for a lost teen...
I am planning on going on Saturday also. After reading that artical I am a little mad. These parts specifically.
"One week earlier, detectives learned, Guidry’s stepfather reported his motorcycle stolen. Guidry had taken it joyriding on Ortega Highway in a state park in Riverside County. When it ran out of gas, he walked out and upon meeting up with a park ranger, made up a story that he’d been kidnapped, but escaped. The fib sparked a helicopter search for the kidnappers, until the teen confessed to a Riverside Sheriff’s deputy that the story was not true."
"Crist said the stepfather was advised when reporting the Jeep stolen that the boy could be apprehended at gunpoint, since without a missing persons report, deputies would assume the driver to be armed and dangerous. He said it is rare for parents to follow through with a stolen vehicle report by a teen for that reason. “Three times they declined to report him missing,” he said."
"Crist defends the department’s actions. “We did take it seriously. We expended a lot of energy,” he said. “Our detective went to the house. He even left cards with neighbors. We even tried to call the father in Afghanistan on his cell phone…She [the mother] even said `Quit calling my neighbors.’" "
It sounds to me like that the parents don't even belive that he his out there. I hope they are right.

I agree, the whole thing is a little messed up.

At the risk of sounding cold, after hearing this, I don't think I want to waste gas or foot power searching for this little punk. He's probably nice and comfy sitting somewhere and laughing at the search efforts.

You may be right... if it wasn't the son of a friend's friend I probably would not have even posted it.

Re: If anyone wants to help look for a lost teen...
That's just sad on so many levels.
Re: If anyone wants to help look for a lost teen...
So this morning I drove out to Anza Borrego to help out. I was surprised when I got there when a lady handed me a clip board and told me to fill out a form with my personal information and sign a waiver. I told her I drive out in the desert all the time and I never need to sign a waiver or had out my personal information to anyone. She called Amber Dubious father over to explain to me that it was very standard and they need everyone's information. I told them I drove out hear prepared to walk 10-20 miles or drive a hundred or so miles, but I didn't come prepared to hand over personal information or waive any rights. I really get the feeling that this is more a media gathering exercise more than it is a search for a lost boy. His own family doesn't think he is out there. The police don't think he is out there. And I don't think he is out there.

I was going to make a crude remark referencing the TV show Criminal Minds but I'll refrain from doing so in case he's really lost.

Re: If anyone wants to help look for a lost teen...
If you were lost out in the desert I would go look for you. I would have liked to head out into the desert and search myself. But I am not confident enough in my Jeep and my spare parts box to go that far out into the desert alone.
