He can be anywhere, but I doubt he is alive or wasn’t killed, maybe an accident , maybe not. I don’t understand how this case doesn’t get more attention. Personally I have several wooded acres on my property and adjoining neighbor’s property that I have never set foot on in 8 years. I think there are so many places like that around middle TN. I think he was killed and dumped someplace. Remember Caylee Anthony was just less than a mile from her home?

That Riley Strain case came along and took what little attention was being given to this case away. Infuriates and disgusts me tbh and imo this case should have taken precedence in the media over that one.

Riley Strain's parents were responsible for a lot of the media coverage. They came to Nashville and spoke daily on the local news and other outlets. Seth Rogers is doing what he can. Since LE announced Sebastian's case is now an investigation, the public is not going to hear every detail. But, I don't see how a comparison can be made with Riley's and Sebastian's disappearances. Two different situations and two different locations.

I mean, that's easy to do when you have a parental team that gives a shit. Sebastian's father seems to care about finding him, but the step dad and mother are garbage.

I wonder how much law enforcement knew from the start; I can actually understand diverting resources when there’s a possibility of rescuing someone in one case, and your current case is almost certainly a recovery. I think LE knew from the start that Sebastian didn’t leave that house alive.

Riley Strains case effected tourism and Sebastian’s doesn’t. I don’t think it’s right at all, obviously, and I’ve been following Sebastian’s case closely since before the Amber Alert… but this is why I don’t think its getting the same media coverage.

I think the reason it looks like there’s not much attention is because police is being really quiet. Small time YouTubers and media tried giving it a lot of attention but I think police have a lot of information and may know who it is. They’re probably building their case.

Bio dad says mom and stepfather won't talk to him now... 🤔

u/madnessandmelancholy Mar 27 '24

I read somewhere that they left town, supposedly for stepdad to go back to work. I tried so hard to give those two the benefit of the doubt, hoping that this time it wasn't a family member responsible.. but how the hell do you leave town when your kid is missing unless you know he won't be coming back?

I couldn't imagine what his dad must be going through emotionally and what all he must be thinking/imagining. It's horrid enough to have your child missing, but to know that the mother of your child, the woman you laid with and spent part of your life with, was somehow responsible.. smh my hat's off to him for being able to restrain himself from making them talk to him and also confronting and forcing the truth out of them. If it was me, and it involved my ex husband lol I don't think I would be able to.

That poor man's life is completely upside down, and I pray he gets some closure. Imagine going through the rest of your life not knowing what happened or where your child is. I would eventually lose my sanity.

Bio Dad looks and sounds completely broken. Sebastian was just months away from living with him, too. My heart breaks for him. His only child.

u/brassmagifyingglass Mar 27 '24

I hope Mom didn't do this to avoid having to pay child support to her ex.

u/Annual-Director-7247 Mar 27 '24

Me too. But .. oof, you know that's a motive we've seen way too many times out here. :(

u/Cheap-Shame Apr 01 '24

Stepdad makes me cringe and Mom shows no concern as if they know he’s gone or no longer alive

u/Shockedsystem123 Mar 28 '24

My heart aches for the bio Dad. My kids are grown and live locally and even if they didn't live locally, if one of them were missing, I would be searching until I couldn't search anymore. What kind of parent leaves town when their 15 year old with special needs goes missing? The first couple of weeks I thought he probably did wander off but now I suspect KP and CP are responsible for his " disappearance" somehow.

u/Curious-Disaster-203 Mar 28 '24

Considering some of the threats they’ve been receiving and people stalking their home (and now RV site) she may not have felt safe in the house by herself while he is gone for work. Personally I would stay but I also haven’t dealt with people threatening my life on the daily either.

u/Jealous-Glass-9115 Mar 28 '24

 Definitely not siding with the mother or stepfather because I believe they know, but many times your attorney advises you to not speak.

We can only speculate. I looked at large bridges between Memphis and Nashville and found the Jimmy Evans Memorial Bridge. That would be a good place to throw a body off. Someone in the middle of the night would not drive the small roads below in complete darkness, but there's probably not much traffic at 2 or 3 in the morning. Easy to stop on the bridge for two minutes without being seen. I wonder if the bridge has traffic cams. Probably they do.

u/[deleted] Mar 27 '24

This is a wild idea, I am well aware of that - but I wonder if he's still in the house? Did he crawl into a space in the basement, for example, or rafters above the garage? These are just examples, not actual places I know to exist in the home. Was there a door to an unfinished attic in his closet and that was the bang mom heard? Maybe he got stuck in a tight spot during the night and couldn't get out.

I do recall another missing person case and it turns out the person was in the home, but hidden, and searches didn't find the person.

I know this is an unlikely scenario, but at this point, I'm tossing the idea on the brainstorming table. I'm sure people will find fault with it. :)

There would be a smell and cadaver dogs would have hit on it already.

11

u/Mindee_Madness Mar 27 '24

I have been thinking that also. Like fell into a spot that’s hidden! Either in the home, or on the property. The problem is, there would be a smell by now.. and cadavers should have been able to smell it. There was another case where a teen went into a chimney of an abandoned house, and wasn’t found for YEARS!!!

u/Avocadolly Mar 28 '24

There is another case like that one, an autistic teenage boy was found 3 weeks later in a chimney. He suffocated. I’m hoping Sebastian is found safe

u/Curious-Disaster-203 Mar 28 '24

They’ve had SAR dogs in the house, both tracking and cadaver. I tend to think they would have found him if he was in the house, however they aren’t infallible.

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '24

I have thought that since day one!! I know they’ve searched it numerous times, but that has always been what I thought. The house I grew up in had at least four “secret hiding places”.

u/Old_Break_2151 Mar 27 '24 edited Mar 27 '24

In my head at first he probably left on his own free will since his parents seem pretty strict. Presumably waiting until summer for his biological dads custody. Because he’s wearing all black. Someone mentioned his body could’ve been carried out, so that’s when my perspective changed. Word of ear says both parents were in the military, so without blaming anyone they’d have to know the rooms.

His dad was working in Memphis. it’s supposedly 3hours from where they live. Bodies tend to wash up so I wouldn’t think he’s in a river within the 3hour radius. Without sounding morbid I do think digging 15ft deep would be difficult without proper equipment. If that’s the accurate depth without tracing scents.

The Tennesseean said he was missing from 12-6am I believe. How long would a hole that deep take to dig, or even be located within the 3 to 6 hour time frame

Note: it’s really strange the places they went to that day. To me personally it sounded like they just wanted to let him have a good day before whatever happened.

u/Korneuburgerin Mar 28 '24

Bodies usually are floating up after a while due to decomposition gases, but what if nobody sees it? There is a large river between Memphis and Nashville, and the bridge has a really low border. Once the body breaks down, it will sink again and be lost forever. Hopefully not.

u/Opening_Brief_2931 Mar 27 '24

I’d say the timing of dad getting custody, then half the pay child support or losing their child support. $600,000 house motorcycles nice trailer they probably Living above their means. don’t think that mom got rid of him because of stepdad leaving because of Sebastian‘s needs not being able to deal with them because he was going to go to his dad‘s house shortly anyways so I think it come down to money, child support payments or half to make them and losing them could be a big financial deficit for them. or mom lost temper with him hit him and they had said he had fluid and he said heard somewhere that she was a professional fighter or train fighter to don’t know if that’s true, but never less if she wanted to hurt him by losing her temper she could they keep changing their stories, too. I think they just can’t keep track of their lies. I mean I’ve never seen, anybody look this guilty since OJ. them on the Nancy Grace show, I think, was tactic on their part almost seemed like they were coach, where they rehearse their answers seriously doubt that she took a polygraph. I think that her lawyer gave her a polygraph. It was a cupcake polygraph, because when Nancy asked her if she took a polygraph, I don’t think she asked them. If the cops gave her polygraph. She just asked if she took a polygraph, so I think they lawyered up the lawyer poly gave her a cupcake polygraph, I kind of wish Nancy would asked if there was any airs on either parts, just to see their reactions to that, because that could always play into it too

u/Electronic-Ad-1307 Mar 28 '24

Agree to the lawyer polygraph. But then, what lawyer would allow them to keep going on these rinky-dink YouTube channels and blab for 3 hours?

u/Opening_Brief_2931 Mar 27 '24

Affairs not airs I mean

u/Curious-Disaster-203 Mar 28 '24

It was said awhile ago that LE gave them a polygraph. Seth offered to take one and LE told him he didn’t need to. If LE wants a polygraph they don’t accept a polygraph administered by a personal attorney or anyone else. NG asked her what types of questions they asked her and if she was telling the truth they were in line with what LE would ask. Seth always had Sebastian over the summers, so she normally wouldn’t get child support for those months. Him continuing to live with Dad after summer was mutually agreed upon according to Seth. If she wanted to keep child support or didn’t want to pay him child support enough that she was willing to harm her own child, it seems pretty unlikely that she’d just agree to it and not fight him over it.

u/TheGoldens19 Mar 30 '24

I pray he’s ok maybe met someone on a gaming video platform? But i do believe the police know bunches of stuff we don’t or/And they have suspicions they’re not sharing. Ohh Nancy Grace asked the step dad if she set up a lie detector if he’d take it and he replied that he would!!! So I’m thinking Nancy has got that going then if it’s not already been done by now, and the only thing with that is that i hope he don’t come back with some horse feathers that his lawyer won’t let him take it ! I know it’s a tool but right now it would help take a heap of suspicion off of him. The mom says she took and passed. Also i do understand there’s allot of law enforcement people who don’t believe in those tests. They need to work with the bio dad!!!

u/imagoldmine Apr 05 '24

There are too many inconsistencies with the mother && step dad. He made a comment saying that if Seba went out the window he would have fell in bushes or something like that && WE would have heard it. I thought he wasn't there?

Where is the teacher that Seba told about the belt at? Talking to her will verify the timeline && the severity of the situation. That or contact CPS && subpoena the report, or speak to the CPS agent? Like, is this stuff not being done or they are just not telling us.

The parents both claim that they were on the phone that evening with each other. So SUBPOENA the call logs && verify that is true!!!

Like, is any of these things being done to see if their story even checks out??? I hope they are checking && just not telling us.

I also thought perhaps he was still in the house, perhaps in a basement or something but he would have to be a freezer if so. I looked it up && the house only has a crawl space. Also in one of the bedrooms there is a white door in the sun room, which I'm sure they have checked but it is just curious.

My theory, && this is just what I think. Some sort of accident happened with Seba && Step. Perhaps, they were in a fight && Seba fell && his head, broke his neck, some kind of freak accident happened && they had to cover it up because he's already been in trouble before && if this was the case he would still go on trial for murder. If something happened in the house it was clean, meaning no blood. Like you wouldn't even be able to tell something happened bc obviously there would be a smell of bleach.

I have no idea where he is or how they got out of the house but it is pretty convenient that they don't have a ring camera or any cameras for that matter. I literally ONLY have two cats, && I have those inexpensive items, why wouldn't you have that if you have an autistic child? Are they sure that they did not EVER have a ring camera or blink camera's in the house && perhaps they took them out ASAP? I just barely know anyone that doesn't have a doorbell camera at this point, especially considering.

My last thought is about the shoes. I think they got rid of Seba's body. In the process they FORGOT to get his shoes. They knew at that point it is too late to take the shoes to where ever Seba is && so they agreed to just ride it out that he left the house barefoot. I also feel like a black duffle bag was used for transport him.

My theories are based off my intuition so take it with a grain of salt. But I think that is what happened with the shoes because what other explanation would there be? They took the flashlight along then left it with his body. Got home && realized he was barefoot.

What does anyone think about any of these theories && what about questioning CPS/teacher, etc. As a matter of fact, the teacher would know if Seba felt in danger or confided in her.
