What I really want to say to everybody, the media, the police, the police in the states, everybody involved, 'thank you' sounds so understated, but that's the only word I can think of at the moment. I think without the concerted effort of everybody involved that I may have been having another sleepless night. I am so thankful to everyone involved that he was found before the 48 hours were gone.

I am so fortunate that I have a 12-year-old back home safe and without harm when the possibilities were very real that (it) could have been a very different ending.
