[Music] all right Captain yesterday we went through the search and rescue efforts
for detres green and when we got to the end of our search and rescue timeline there we were really starting to see a
lot of red flags as to detres Green's home situation and parents situation as well all right so do you want to hear
what might be the reddest of flags or maybe it's the largest of the red flags which would make more sense to say go
for it all right this is this could blow your mind so adjust your headphones properly at no time repeat at no time
did the parents of detres green ever give or provide a photograph of this kid to the Searchers to police or any
Authority at all not on the day that the boy went missing which I guess okay you've been hit by a a tornado it's been
a a natural disaster so I'll give them a break as to their home was hit hard destroyed by this tornado okay so maybe
you can't find a photograph of him or maybe that's not the first thing on your mind but let's fast forward here it's
been over 4 years now and they are still yet to give or provide a photograph to police Poli well and we know that his
father had a cell phone so most people these days maybe you don't have an actual physical picture of your child
but you would have a bunch of pictures in your phone correct and that's what makes your head kind of spin here
because you're going all right um maybe you couldn't find a physical photo because your home was destroyed but as
you said digital photos somewhere right in the cloud on your cell phone did you find your phone do your family members
do your extended family have any photographs of your son because according to your story mom and dad he
was over slightly over two years old when this tornado takes him and everybody knows how parents are of small
children they're constantly taking photographs of these kids and so I just find this incredibly bizarre again maybe
they didn't find their cell phone but couldn't you reach out to other people so this tells me two things than Captain
one you don't really want to find or further probably don't even care if detres is ever found and two you
probably don't have any photos of your boy and I don't think this tornado is to blame I think Kevan and adasia are to
blame well it also makes you wonder was there some foul play that happened to that this child and then later they use
the tornado as a an excuse to cover up something bad that they did to this child I mean this father seems more
interested in finding his cell phone than he does finding his child and that by Webster's Dictionary makes him a
piece of [ __ ] yeah so we have media who went looking for photographs of the boy
as well right because they're into uncovering the truth they couldn't find anything in regards to detres Green
now one photo of detres as an infant supposedly I've not seen this but I've been told this is the situation so I
throw in the word supposedly appeared on Facebook but even if that's true that is
it the infant photo on Facebook if true that is the only known photograph digital or paper to have ever existed of
a sweet little boy who was alive and well according to his parents he is alive and well for over two years until
a terrible storm stole him from you and you the parents loved him so very much that you took one single photograph of
him remember what you say when what we would say when we were kids bull pucky right I call Bull pucky on this whole
situation involving the storm well and I'm going to say something and you might think I'm crazy but it really starts
making you question did this child even exist at all I don't find that to be a crazy statement at all and in fact
that's what a lot of other people in this situation started to question just within a week or two of the boy missing
so then we have gbi gbi gets called in at some point Georgia Bureau of Investigation so if you're going to call
in somebody to get to the bottom of something and you live in the state of Georgia these are the people to call so
we have gbi who says it's impossible to find a missing person if you don't know what they look like gbi special agent
Porter told the media quote it's very unusual maybe somebody out there has a photo and they just haven't brought it
Forward yet but it is unusual end quote then you have the dowy County Police Captain Tom Jackson who said There Are
No photos that I know of of detres green to me that is a little strange that two
parents would not have a photo of their child not to mention that it makes it extremely difficult to locate a person
when you don't know what he looks like I wouldn't say that's a little strange I'd
say that's wildly strange I'm with you I think that the police captain and gbi special agent that they're being overly
polite about the situation now law enforcement was clearly unsettled by this non-existent photo situation when D
trees's extended family was asked about it D trees's great great grandfather Willie Rainey told
WB that his granddaughter explained it away saying there were some pictures according to my granddaughter but she
said her phone got lost during the storm now Willie Rainey I like this guy the grandfather of adasia and he's the
great-grandfather of detres I like this guy he's he does not have ad's back by giving the statement he simply passing
along to the media what she told him he's not coming to her defense he's just saying look they're not talking to you
guys and you keep asking people what's going on this is what they have told me her father her grandfather I'm sorry has
gone out of his way to say he is suspicious of everything that adasia has told him he's suspicious about Kevan and
his actions so this is not a grandfather running to her rescue here's the thing that I want to point out to adasia and
Kevan if you're listening the simple truth of your family and your child to me looking in from the outside it's as
simple as this it looks to me like neither of you cared about detres enough to take his picture and you know what
Mom and Dad even Casey Anthony had pictures of Kaylee her daughter there was another
big red flag raising questions about Kevan and adasia that's right Captain another perhaps Kevan and adasia should
open up a big red flag store because they got plenty of them to sell they have red flags coming out of their ass
right so Emergen Emergency Management Personnel were on site at the mobile home park where detres green lived
immediately after the storm we covered that in yesterday's show about one hour after the storm passed in fact yet none
of the First Responders recall having any any inter action with d trees's parents at that time no one came out of
the trailer screaming about their missing kid in fact the four remaining family members left they left and went
to a relatives home mom and dad scooped up their two remaining children and drove off into the sunset so here's a a
very quick and short timeline the tornado hit dowy County at 3:15 p.m. adasia called police to report the trees
missing at 8:10 p.m. on Sunday night that's why they weren't looking for the boy until that night 5 hours elapsed
before she called well you know just to play a little devil's advocate here Casey Anthony never called the police
until she was forced to by her family all right so so we have if you're keeping score at home people one to one
one to one greens have one point and Casey Anthony has one point and if you're tied with Casey Anthony you're a
giant pile of [ __ ] you got a whole set of problems and you're the and you're to
blame for those so the gbi special agent Porter again remarked to the news saying
that it was very significant this is a very significant Gap in time for parents to be missing a child so that kind of
stuck out to them especially because emergency Personnel were on the scene in the trailer park within an hour banging
on doors they're not waiting for people to come to them and ask for help they're
going door too and helping people and getting them out of their homes and doing whatever they can to assist and
help these people well let's see what these POS have to say for themselves okay Captain so we have
Cheryl bird she's a spokeswoman for the County's Emergency Management agency she
says that adasia told the agency that she last Saw detres walking toward the back door of that mobile home then the
storm hit the tree fell through the roof and it was chaos the power went out the
family had to leave and go to a relative's home which they did that evening and then they reported d trees
missing at that point so it seems to me based off of this statement what adasia seems to be implying is that they had to
leave and go to a relatives to use the phone to call police well and that makes sense with the story though if if the
father could not find his cell phone it does make sense but once you start to line these things up you go all right
are they stalling are did they get out of that area on purpose I mean if it takes you four to five hours to drive
somewhere to make that emergency phone call there's a phone somewhere between you and that and the time that it takes
to travel that distance right I don't know how far away the relatives home was I tried to find that because I wanted to
go okay well if they would have left at this time they could have been there possibly for two hours before they made
the phone call I couldn't figure that out but then we also have to keep in mind we have the neighbor who's out
helping people pulling people out of the debris he pulls out their daughter says
do you need anything else and the father tells him no we're all good here well your son is still missing maybe Kevan
didn't know that he was missing at that time I don't believe it I actually don't
think that that was the last time that these parents saw their son then we have emergency crews we have a neighbor out
helping right after the storm emergency crews with in the hour at the mobile home park it all seems to me like these
people were trying to get out of Dodge they wanted to get away from a situation they wanted to report him missing that's
obvious because they did in fact do that five hours later they wanted everybody to know that the kid was missing and it
the storm was to blame but they didn't want to be there and have to answer questions face to face they didn't want
to have to do an interview face to face right and that seems to me obviously you
can't pre-plan these things it seems to me like that was at some point that it became their plan so let's talk about
the 911 call calling in to report him missing but like you said the 911 call came in five hours later five hours
after the storm hit right after the tornado passed through so the Albany Harold interviewed the 911 operator
again this is because the parents are just not making themselves accessible to the media so you go to you take the next
step you have to interview the operator who took the call instead of adasia who placed the call that night the 911
Communications manager this is Sheila Sims said that the call came from ad Deja rainy and it was one of the most
unusual missing person's calls in all of her time working as a dispatcher she says that she at that time she had been
there for 18 years and and she went on to describe how calmly adasia sounded when she called 911 adding quote in my
experience with a child that age the parents are usually hysterical and screaming that we are not doing enough
and we just didn't get that I believe the first call came in shortly after 8:00 p.m. these are again her words it
may have been 8:01 or 82 p.m. adasia was not at the address where this took place
where her story happened she said that she had to get to a phone to call us and that was hours later end quote in the
call Adia said to Shelly I was trying to call 911 to report my son missing I don't know where he is the wind must
have toted him off or something were her words now Shelley went on to ask adasia
if she had searched the trailer park for her son and Adia responded yeah I did I
didn't walk all over I just tried to hurry up and see shelter they told us to come to the front I'm guessing this is
the front of the the mobile home park and I checked everywhere in our area and I couldn't see him so according to the
parents of detres After the Storm they looked around didn't see him and then left to go call 911 from a family
member's home 5 hours later they never mentioned him to emergency crews who were there to help on site to help uh as
we said Captain gbi was called in and we have a statement from Chief Battle of the dowy County Police Department
announcing that they requested that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation become involved she said basically we've
searched for this child along with experts in search and rescue for five days it wasn't until that Friday on at
2:30 p.m. on January 27th that the search was called off and she announced to the public hey this
is a police investigation and we've brought in gbi to assist us in this case because
you can see the complexities of this case already what also makes you wonder the maturity level of the parents the
emotional maturity level of the parents and also just is is there some mental health issues is is there maybe
even some disabilities there because they're they're acting so strange compared to how you think somebody else
would act or how you would compare how you would act yourself agreed you do wonder that but to me they're acting
guilty they're acting guilty of something that they're just not telling us um their their behavior is highly
suspicious and it almost seems to me like they are doing their best to cover something up
give a story stick to it and then be unavailable and uncooperative with investigators media and so on so that
they don't have to be held to task right they don't have to have their feet held
to the Flames to answer the tough questions and further they are not even assisting in the search for this little
boy let's say that a storm took him and and he was found alive and well and maybe it took a lot longer than anybody
expected two weeks 3 weeks a month whatever but let's say and pretend that they found the Tes green alive and well
and they returned him at some point one I'd have to wonder if they would return him knowing the parents' actions or lack
of action to help find him but then could you imagine you go to see your great-grandfather or your great aunt as
a young adult and maybe they can't keep quiet anymore and they say you know you were missing all that time and we were
so glad and so blessed to find you but you know I have to tell you your mom and dad didn't help in the search for you at
all yeah that's pretty awful so of course Captain for all of the reasons we have previously discussed gbi officials
were suspicious to say the least that the parents were not being entirely forthcoming about what happened to their
son the two largest red flags biggest red flags are just what we pointed out before one there's no photo of him that
gbi could find and two let's not forget that prior to that tornado no one had seen him recently and we're not you know
we're not talking about hours or days we mean months no one has seen detr Green in months leading up to this tornado and
then in regards to gbi and their investigation on January 31st so they are only on the case for about
two days at this point gbi conducted a dig at a house located at 10:06 Pine knot Road in
Ashburn it turns out this is the former home of Kevan and adasia the gbi spent over two hours at
the home digging in at least two locations now they said of the search in the end there's nothing that they can
release at the time that they were following up on evidence from the case they did say hey like the media caught
wind of this oh you're you're searching for detres green but you're not searching for him in the area that he
was supposedly living when he went missing according to Mom and Dad you're now looking for him at a prior
residents and they were not quiet about this they didn't go out of their way to make an announcement but when asked they
said yes we're searching a a previous residence of of Kevan and adasia we know that at one time or it's believed at one
time that Tres green lived here with them and we're letting the evidence take us where it will take us in this case
and it is 100% our search of that area was 100% due to the ongoing investigation of the trees green and his

for telling a friend make sure you subscribe and give us five stars cheers to you Colonel what a frustrating case
this is so far cheers to you Captain cheers to everybody out there that's ever given us five stars now
gbi this is their investigation man and something you had asked earlier you said
hey I'm going to throw the statement out there I'm starting to wonder if this kid
ever existed at all am I crazy and I said no you're not because we have a few days in or a couple weeks in I'm sorry
where gbi saying not only have we not seen a photograph of this kid not only can we not find anybody that's ever seen
him other than the the two parents and this you know one Aunt of hers right and I guess the brother that's backing up
green kavan's brother so we got four people that claims to have seen the kid at some point in their in his two years
of existence they're also saying at this point we can't find a birth certificate
for detes so it is not crazy to think surprise surprise that he may not have ever existed so it sounds to me gbi is
being very thorough here in their investigation they're they're covering all their bases here and looking into
any of these possibilities but also from a citizen standpoint I think the masses it's easier for you and I and for
everybody out there to go you know what okay maybe these people didn't do something horrible to this kid maybe
maybe they didn't harm their own child maybe he just never existed and they made up the existence of this boy to
collect welfare or gain assistance of some sort that it was more of a more of a fraudulent thing rather than well what
would be a homicide negligent or otherwise we have the three-year-old daughter and then we have an infant and
so we're saying that detres was two so that puts you know him and his older sibling pretty close together an age
well and we have this interesting statement from the police department too that says and this is a quote from the
news says I understand that there have been people that adasia has contacted that have actually seen this child but
not within the last couple of months or maybe a year or so so police can't find anybody that has seen the kid in a
couple of months but also adding in their statement maybe up to a year or so right but again let's just say let's
just say hypothetically I have this child child is born at the age of two or three I then make up that they have a
sibling I could probably change the dress of that baby and from a distance or through
pictures or or not much interaction between the child and other individuals convince you that I have two
children you just never seen both of them at the same time and as more and more time passed captain and there was
no sign of detres as his parents stopped cooperating that's what the papers say I
I question if they ever cooperated to begin with we do know that they cut off Communications with investigators if
they ever really communicated with them to begin with law enforcement spoke in terms that plainly conveyed their
suspicions of the parents at some point when talking about this case with the media in November of 2017 with d detres
gone 11 months the police captain said that the case is frustrating to police because until someone speaks up the
truth about what happened to detres will never be proven and I think it's interesting you know we've talked about
this in regards to Deli and other cases uh BTK the list goes on and on and on police
work within the confines that they have to but they but they are very aware most
times the better agencies are anyway they are very aware of the words that they choose to use when giving
statements to the media and the public and here the captain chooses to use the word proven the truth about what
happened to detres Green will never be proven until somebody speaks up and tells us the truth right interesting
used chose to use the word proven instead of known what that tells us is that investigators have a good idea possibly
even know what happened to detres they just don't have enough for an arrest I agree possibly you know and they know
who's responsible too they just don't know where to take this case because there's there's so much lacking
there's so many so much information that's lacking for them to to work with to build a case I I I tend to try to
think of these cases I find them to be more interesting if I if I kind of focus on what would I be doing as law
enforcement and if the parents came forward and said look the TZ was was never a real kid who made him up for
fraudulent reasons I don't know if you could initially believe them you would need to have proof of this right because
and you know that because if if they now come clean and say look he never existed
well you all been lying to everybody for two years so how can we believe anything
you say you're you're exactly right there you have to to confirm that and find a way to confirm that but let's
bring back in Lisa remember this is AD deia's aunt and she's been very vocal in this case as well as ad's great or ad's
grandfather and I commend an Applause her family for going out of their way to try to clear a lot of this up and try to
provide some of the truth and to publicly you know I understand you don't want to air your dirty laundry right but
after months and months and months and you're seeing parents act suspiciously the whole time
I applaud them for bringing their suspicions to the media and voicing their concerns about these parents to
the media so Lisa her aunt says and this is pretty revealing and very damning information she worked in the Turner
County 911 Center in Ashburn this is the same town where her niece lived before moving to the mobile home park Lisa says
look we were too we we were very close at one time me and adasia she says that when she worked at the 911 call center
she heard a lot of calls involving Kevan green now this started before adasia and
Kevan were even in a relationship together she was hearing 911 calls regarding this Kev and green before
they're in a relationship together she says that at the time so this would have been
2010 Kevan was 22 years old he was a trucker uh his wife at the time would call 911 repeatedly charging that Kevan
was beating her in front of their small children now no charges were ever filed and the two eventually separated but
stayed married for a while So Lisa was horrified when in 2012 her beloved niece Adia introduced her new
boyfriend to the family Kev and green adasia was still in high school at Turner County High School in the ROC
program at this time Kevan was more than seven years her senior Lisa says that she warned adasia about Kevan and
everyone in her family did but the two announced their engagement in late 2012 as adasia was entering her senior year
in high school Kevan was still married to his first wife at the time this this always drives me nuts this is one of
those things that makes me makes me want to just go out side open up the car door
insert my head and just slam it right in there because I I can help you with that
you I will never understand for the life of me when people when smart people I don't know if adja is smart maybe she's
not but I've W seem to be in my lifetime where you have someone for whatever reason and it's got to be complete
Bizarro reasons will believe something that a complete stranger tells them rather than someone that they've known
for years maybe decades somebody that they know has had their back on multiple occasions let's believe total
total stranger person but not believe the person that has helped me out countless times a person that I know
that hey I might not always like them but uh I know that they got my back and you know where where do you where do you
put the weight in into people's statements and beliefs it just I I mean how could you not believe your aunt
who's telling you look this guy his wife was calling in repeatedly that he was beating her up all the time and now he's
boyfriend I'm just I'm warning you I'm trying to tell you get away from him right and Adia no she I'm in love I'm
going to stay with this guy so the couple move in together and their residence the first residence that they
live in is described as a trailer with garbage bags covering the windows I have nothing about against living in a
trailer I've considered it multiple times in my lifetime and I've seen some pretty nice ones out there too and some
of the Parks look inviting most of the parks not for me I see any kind of dwelling with garbage bags covering the
windows I've got concerns man sign me up hey I got a great place I can rent to you c yeah the HOA fees are plastic bags
so on September 8th 2013 adasia well she's going to get to unfortunately experience some
of these things firsthand it sounds like because she calls 911 says that she was cooking dinner
when Kevy and came into their trailer and started accusing her of something with a friend that she had on Facebook
they argued for a while and he punched her in the head now this is from the police report so adasa told deputies I
baled up in the corner floor hollering then he hit me he hit my head against the wooden pole constantly non-stop then
he picked me up by the neck choking me with my feet dangling that was her words in the police report that's before the
trees goes missing so Kevan was arrested and charge with battery in that situation now he told officers look she
made it all up she inflicted all these injuries herself just to get me in trouble yes we were arguing but uh this
is the result she she set me up you know what I hope for I I hope for that one he
existed and that somebody else took him away that saw that this was not a positive situation and took him away or
they they sold him to somebody that wanted to have a child and treat a child the way the child should be treated yeah
and that maybe that they've never come forward because one the parents have no proof if it's their child or not but
they didn't ever come forward because they didn't want their to be any of a chance that they could have to give up
their son and go back to these two yahoos well and who knows because these things are really all over the shop
aren't they we've seen cases where it's obvious that the child was abducted that
what Mom and Dad are saying is in fact the truth then we've had some other questionable cases like Dior Coons where
you wonder and there's been a lot of speculation did they sell the boy to somebody that wanted a son for whatever
reasons and then you have a case like Dewan Sims where yeah I feel I feel like we
have a similar situation to dwan Sims case here where something happened to dwan Sims he's a little kid and then mom
goes to the shopping mall and we covered that case I don't know the episode number but she goes to the shopping mall
and says hey uh somebody abducted him from the the mall and they start reviewing the cameras and they're like
yeah we see you we don't ever see you with your son we don't think he was ever in the shopping mall so what it appears
happened in The Sims case is something happened to this boy and then she has to concoct the story and comes up with this
story later to explain a way why he is not anywhere to be found anymore the Dewan Sims episode is episode 160 and
you can find all of our episodes from episode one to episode now they're available everywhere Apple podcast
Stitcher Spotify wherever you listen to podcast so grease up your earballs because there's to listen to what's
different about this case as opposed to the those other cases is I don't even know if this child ever existed well
right and I I see you kind of circling around that so I wanted to make sure that I got to this portion of it and
this is kind of why I brought up this uh police report incident where adasia says
that Kevan beat her up so I guess they make up at at some point after this because he was in fact charged with
battery during that situation or because of that situation but a few weeks later
she gives birth to Kevan son and this would be DET trees's older brother so the oldest of the three small children
so the family moved into the pine knot Roadhouse that we discussed and they lived there for a year maybe a couple
years Lisa her aunt that tried to warn adasia about kevi and says look I kind of use my position as a dispatch officer
to con veniently send officers there once in a while for welfare checks because she was
so worried about what would happen to her niece and possibly that child D trees's older brother Ada's family has
told the media we knew where they lived we were never allowed in the house we at
never any time ever went into their home or their homes as it were well again this is abusive situation we know that
and one of the things that these abusive [ __ ] men like to do is they one they'll separate their victim the the
person that they're abusing from their family and their friends and they'll control those situations so for all we
know he's controlling the situation where he doesn't want any of them ever going into the house right and then this
leads us to a notable incident that followed the birth of detres green okay so the last incident was before his
older brother was born this would have been short after so detres was born on October 28th
2014 on his fifth or sixth day at home ad deia's father Grady Rainey got a call from his daughter something's going on
so he in turn calls the police and what happened then was the Turner County dispatch received a 911 call regarding
adasia and Kevan and it was basically basically her father saying my daughter and her boyfriend are fighting that's
why I'm calling you and asked if you do you know if there are any weapons involved and he says I know he's got a
gun I don't know if there's any weapons involved in this incident but I know that he owns a gun on the call he tells
the dispatcher that his daughter adasia said quote if my baby daddy don't quit beating me I'm going to shoot him the
father ad's father goes on to tell the Ator that there was a one-year-old toddler and a newborn in the home so the
trees green would be the newborn that was in the home now we have police that go to to that residence to their
residence to see what's going on they get no answer but due to the call and due to a gun being referenced multiple
times during the call they call in the SWAT team well it it's like a standoff man a two-hour standoff before Kev and
green comes out of the house he's immediately arrested um adasia who was 19 at the time tells police it was all
just a misunderstanding she stuck to her story so we we do have you know law enforcement on record saying this is one
of the hardest things to do you get a domestic violence victim it's it's difficult to get them to speak out often
and in this situation at least no charges were filed but what we do have here is that we know based off of this
incident that this was confirmed by child services that the trees green existed and he was alive and at that
home and he's about six days old at this time and speaking of adah's family let's
stick with Lisa here and some of her information that she's able to provide to us in regards to D trees's case she
said says that in the Atlanta Journal Constitution these are her exact words I'll just read her exact words so we
don't have to try to decipher what they mean quote she spoke of a toxic atmosphere in her niece's home adasia is
who she talking she's talking about with Kevan accused multiple times of beating
her 10 months later Lisa said she she's heard no plausible explanations about what happened that night d trees is
still missing haunting Lisa and people around Albany who want answers to one of the most discussed and speculated about
child disappear disappearances in the area's recent memory as she waits Lisa tries to make
sense of a conversation she said she had with the trees's parents right after the
tornado when they called her and her words are quote nobody said anything about a kid was missing they said they
were fine end quote according to Lisa ad's aunt she speaks with him right after the
tornado nothing's wrong we're fine obviously Kevan the the father is a horrible individual but you know he has
a pretty long list of offenses yeah so we do have some of that information here Captain if you want to
go through it yeah okay so what I have in my notes is that from 2010 to 2014 record show he was arrested six times in
Turner County at least three times related to domestic disputes his charges included disorderly conduct battery for
Family Violence and a misdemeanor simple battery charge now more than two years after the tornado 2019 Dary County
Police responded to a family violence call involving the parents the police report said that adasia told the
officers she and her then husband Kev and got in a fight she also said he quote locks her in their residence end
quote the report said the officer couldn't find green couldn't find kevi and green that night and there was no
record of him being charged so we've seen this in other cases too they respond to a domestic violence case you
know if there's not a lot of proof of what the complaint is and you can't find the person that the complaint is going
to be filed against or she talks herself out of filing the complaint sometimes there's no charges that that go anywhere
in these situations now there were some developments I guess in this case last year in 2020 the gbi released a press
release asking for the Public's assistance in the missing child investigation here's the full release
police are seeking The public's assistance in a nearly 4-year-old missing child's investigation on January
27th 17 the dowy County Police Department requested the gbi to assist in The Disappearance of 2-year-old
detres green on January 22nd 2017 at approximately 300 p.m. a tornado struck the Piney Woods trailer park in Dy
County where the Green family resided at the time at approximately 8:10 p.m. police received a call about a missing
child later identified as detres and immediately began a search the child's parents reported that a
tornado hit their home and a tree crashed through the trailer law enforcement and search Crews spent days
searching for detres a nearby Pond was drained and search provided no results throughout the course of this
investigation no picture of detres has been provided to police agents and investigators work together on numerous
investigative acts they included conducting interviews and searched the parents former home internal County
anyone with information related to The Disappearance of detres is urged to call the dowy County Police Department the
gbi regional office or Crim Stoppers and I'll give the crimes stopper number here
and I'll I'll give the gbi's number before we wrap up Crim Stoppers if you want to leave an Anon anonymous tip or
information call 229 436 tips tips now the Tes green little detres would have turned 6 years old on October
28th 2020 he should be turning seven this month Captain but unfortunately he was born into a bad situation born into
a home with a violent man and parents who just didn't care for him or his well-being or help love him enough to
take pictures of the child in conclusion sadly D trees's extended relatives care
about the little boy they never met more than his own parents did Willie Rainey told
WB that me and my wife will talk and we often wonder still today what happened with our grandbaby Willie does not
believe the story being told by adasia and Kevan about what happened to detres he also has reconciled himself to the
fact that detres is no longer alive while he is relieved that Kevan and ad's other two kids remain in foster care he
said that his experience working in law enforcement taught him and told him that
Kevan Green's arrest record should have led to the child or and all children being taken away from their parents
earlier Willie thinks that adasia may be too scared to come forward with what really happened to
detres and says I just hope my granddaughter finds it in her heart to go tell somebody what happened he said
he would like to see detres properly buried in the family plot the news several outlets tried to contact
adasia and Kevan in 2019 could not locate them so they've they weren't Cooperative to begin with weren't giving
statements to begin with and these years later they seem to continue right nothing to do
with with this situation it's s such a sad sad world because there's so many people that try really hard and have to
take you know certain medications and and different shots and hormones and stuff
just to have a child and then other people can have children so easily and yet they care so little and there are
things right there's all this stuff that we've put into place you know in most situations in Most states and most
cities you can give up your child you C you can drop them off somewhere you can I mean I I know that
sounds horrible to say but we've put these these things into place so that no harm comes to these kids that
are not wanted and not taken care of yeah but what but what's worse though right if somebody said look I I I try to
take care of this kid and I just can't do it I can't afford the kid I I maybe don't even care much about the kid let
me give the kid over to the state I would applaud that person so much more than these giant piles of [ __ ] that you
don't even look for your child and but you're looking for your phone of course your phone means more to
you than your child had they dropped the trees off somewhere or ask family to take him or the state to take him or
whatever he would have had a Fighting Chance right he would have had a shot at a life and under their roof he did not
and this is the result the Georgia Bureau of Investigation says that the reason detres is not listed with the
national Center for missing and exploited children is because they do not have any photograph of him to submit
to the database and you and I captain spoke with Megan Good who maintains and operates the Charlie project website and
database and she told us the same thing that she needs a photo of this missing person to include him in the database
and God bless her and the good work that she's doing and we presented this name to Tres green out of left field you know
pulled a name out of thin air when we were talking with her in person at crimecon and immediately she says I mean
the the knowledge that she has of missing people is just amazing she says immediately she goes is that the toddler
that was missing and there's no photograph of him and the parents claim that a storm took him and I'm like yes
you you nailed it we picked a name at random and you nailed it so bless her in the work that she's doing check out the
Charlie project website now there is no doubt right no doubt something happened to this little boy but it didn't happen
that day during a tornado echoing the statements of search and rescue experts and law enforcement there is just no way
that anyone can believe in my mind that a storm hit and it blew detres off of the face of the map he would have been
located just like the many others were alive or otherwise so for everybody out there if you have
any information at all even a suspicion or a hint at something odd maybe you saw
something maybe you saw this family out somewhere when there were still five members of this family please please
please report it to somebody because as much as authorities need to find the remains of this little boy the victim of
he's the victim of his despicable parents in the meantime what they need to develop is a timeline a timeline of
the trees's life no matter how short it was because right now all we have and all we know is that something sometime
between the ages of six days old and two years and a couple of months old something happened to this little boy
and his parents Kevan and adasia covered it up and when this tornado hit they found the excuse they were looking for
and waiting for and they simply wiped their Hands Clean of dress please someone contact the Georgia Bureau of
Investigation with whatever information you may have that's the gbi's regional office in

The strongest was an EF-3 tornado with winds of one hundred and fifty miles per hour. FEMA and the National Guard were called in to support the rescue efforts. Damage estimates were around one hundred million dollars. Fifteen people died in Georgia and five more in other southern states as a result of these twisters. When the EF-3 tornado hit the Piney Woods Estates Mobile Home Park, two parents claimed the storm took their two year old boy Detrez Green. Join us in the Garage as we take a look at the parents strange story and discuss what really happened to little Detrez.
