DOCUMENTARY On The True Case on Youtube


Go to Youtube and search for JUST ANOTHER MISSING KID - a special 90 minute documentary on the real case. Very close to the movie.

I saw that documentary "Just Another Missing Kid". The movie was very close to it, but seeing the documentary made it even clearer what happened. It was horrible.

The details of the documentary are horrific. I think the Wilson family did well to relate their story. They seemed to have been given time to be calm. I wonder if a similar documentary on such a subject now would have given the same consideration to the family. Now I think a documentary would show every bit of emotional difficulty of the family by keeping the cameras rolling on them relentlessly.

I would agree that a documentary would show the emotional difficulties that a family who has gone through such a horrible loss would. Eric Wilson's parents ended up hiring a private detective named James Conway to crack the case, which he did, and it worked for Eric Wilson's parents.

It was rather rough all around on that family.
