I fail to understand how ” foul play ” can be ruled out , as a week before a group of individuals were outside his home arguing and the person that he met and spoke to over heard something of what others were going to do to him , did they go their separate ways after speaking ? .
Who takes care of his child ? .
Also the means of what they used in order to try and find him , also , in part indicates that there is more to this case than meets the eye .
