    On the New Year’s eve of 1989, 11 years old Collier Landry wakes up to a loud thud coming from his parents' bedroom, and it becomes the night his mother Noreen disappears forever. All of his family seem to have no doubts that she ran away after a fight with her husband, but only Collier knows that his mom would never leave him behind. As Dr John Boyle refuses to discuss his wife’s disappearance, detective David Messmore builds a secret bond with the child who insists his mom was murdered. Together, they discover Dr. Boyle’s hidden girlfriend and an astonishing secret buried under the doctor’s new mansion’s floor.

      @@lareinelester685 I know. Collier is pretty amazing...I know about being the scapegoat in a family, to a point that it is insane, but this takes it to a whole new level. A few years ago if someone said "you don't have any friends" or something of that nature, it would be such an embarrassing insult. Not anymore...I started noticing that mean ppl who bully & cut others down, often have a lot of friends. Then I met a couple of pretty awesome & genuine ppl who were very comfortable about their CHOICE not to hang out with others and keep their circle microscopic. Collier at that time, was pretty much left alone at that moment in his life...but it wasn't because he was anything other than a completely awesome, resilient, smart, brave person. Im 100% with the ppl who say that they prefer the company of pets and animals over the company of people.

    I feel bad for his sister Elizabeth, too. No one is mentioning her, and she felt glossed over in this video. She was a victim too. This little girl thought she found her forever family, and while it's better in the end she was rehomed because of how dangerous the "father" was. I'm sure her mother loved her very much as well. She was taken from her family because of this selfish man, after she thought she had finally found one. I feel bad she never reunited with her brother. That, on top of her barely being mentioned, really did feel like she was an afterthought.

      The father didn't kill his son because Det. Messmore got him out in time.
      The father realized Collier was feeding information to the police. Suddenly, out of the blue, the father told his son that they were going to Florida the very next morning. Collier panicked at being separated from Det. Messmore and immediately phoned him. That night, two people appeared in Collier's bedroom. (Presumably from Child Protective Services together with a police escort.) One of the two people told Collier to quickly pack a bag, that they were leaving.
      When Det. Messmore got Collier's call, alerting him to the sudden trip to Florida, Det. Messmore realized the father was taking Collier away to kill him and immediately got a rescue team together. They got Collier out and into the care, custody, and control of Child Protective Services. Collier was placed with a foster family where he was safe and was to remain until he became an adult.

      That was very well worded.. *: )* I also was very impressed with the 11 and 12 yrs. old's Collier perceptions, intuativeness and the maturity level displayed by him as a young man. I can barely remember being 11 but what I do remember is that I was not even close to the maturity levels of Collier. Unfortunately, there are SO MANY people I know of, and have met in my 57 yrs. on this earth that are MORE than old enough cronologically but nowhere near the maturity level of 12 yrs. old Collier...

    Kids are very attentive and easily manipulated. So many children have witnessed crimes but are sadly silenced due to fear or manipulation. And many kids do speak up and are completely dismissed by authorities and the adults in their lives. For this 11 year old child to push through knowing what his father could potentially do to him was so brave. And for the detective to realize he needed to listen and that he stepped up to support this child through this is everything. This case would have never been solved had it not been for them working together.

      The cop's acknowledgement that the word of kids is usually dismissed really pissed me off. Children are VERY observant & FAR more honest than most adults.

    I was a teenager working as a cashier at a grocery store (Neffs) when this happened. Noreen and her children were regulars. All of the cashiers were so impressed with Collier's intelligence and enjoyed hearing what new word/facts he had learned that day. When they didn't come into the store for a week or so we started wondering where they were. Noreen never mentioned going on vacation or that they would be away. Shortly after that the news broke of Noreen's murder. It was apparent Collier & Elizabeth were Noreen's world. I don't remember ever seeing Noreen without her children. I'm happy to hear Collier is doing well after going through such an horrific event at such a young age.

He took her identification away from her so she could not go to the hospital. She climbed out her window from a second story window and a dear friend drove her to safety. We were threatened with doing the same to me and my little sister. My older sister he beat stayed at a friends parents home covered in head to toe bruises. We were never the same after this.

And the extended family still believe he’s not guilty ? I understand loving the guy that’s family .no stranger would put so much effort to murder a woman in their new house and go bury them in the basement .. crime of opportunity people don’t just dig up concrete and pour it over body . That would take hours of work.. they want to get away from the house fast as possible for fear of being caught . So the family is delusional to think he’s not guilty and should feel ashamed for turning their backs on their grandkid /nephew. But it’s also blessing .. because he deserves better than that family .

The prosecutor did an excellent job at presenting an open and shut case, as investigated by the police. But Collier, he was the star. His father never deserved such a boy. That little kid had so much composure and courage. I am so happy he ended up in a loving family. I never understood how his mistress could stand by him through the trial.
    Even though it's horrible how Boyle has tormented his son through the years, at least it's nice to know that Boyle is still going crazy thinking about being caught by his own son. Way to go, Collier!

      It's not a "fake term" if it has been established and has a specific definition of what it means. Hmmmm, read the definition to that term again and tell me it doesn't fit the dad to a T. Weird that you are dissing on a victim and trying to nitpick the words they use because it triggered you. lmao Maybe evolve your vocabulary. It's what intelligent people actually do. 😉

    I've watched this story several times over the years. It's one of my favorites where justice prevails because of this young brave boy. I think of how his mother must shine so bright over him with how proud she must be of him. This young man was so mature and smart for his age. He was so persistent and secretive in bringing the truth to light. Just amazes me every time I watch it. I'm so sorry for his loss of his mother. After all said and done he had to move on without his mother. I'm so sorry for this loss. Every child shouldn't have to grow up without their mother. Especially when she was taken by the one other person he had left to trust and grow up with. God bless you. ❤
