Typical Behavior
Jason told Nicholas to walk home from the basketball court alone. It was only a mile or two from their house in San Antonio, Texas. Nicholas never made it back.
When Beverly reported her son missing, the local authorities took their time to respond. Nicholas hadn't exactly been favored among law enforcement, and with his upcoming trial, police figured that he wouldn't be gone for long. He was only carrying $5 on him. Twenty-four hours passed, and then forty-eight. There was still no sign of the 13-year-old.
