Sheriff says he’s convinced DeOrr Kunz was not abducted
Lemhi County Sheriff Lynn Bowerman says he’s convinced an Idaho toddler missing for three weeks was not abducted.
Sheriff Lynn Bowerman spoke with KBOI news about the case of missing Idaho boy DeOrr Kunz Jr., who was last seen July 10. Although he’s convinced the 2-year-old was not abducted, Bowerman said he’s unable to rule out the possibility.
The sheriff also said on Friday that the FBI is sending a team of investigators to assist the Lemhi County Sheriff’s office who will be checking the sheriff’s office interviews and may re-interview some people to make sure deputies didn’t miss anything.
Kunz and his family were camping in the Leadore area — not far from the Montana border when he disappeared. No one has seen him since.
Bowerman said everyone at the campsite is considered a person of interest in the case, however, none of them are suspects — this includes the parents, the child’s great-grandfather and family friend Isaac Reinwand.
The sheriff’s office does not have a 24-hour presence at the campsite, however, detectives go up every day to search.
Kunz was last seen wearing cowboy boots, blue pajama pants, and a camouflage jacket.
Anyone with information is asked to call 208-846-7676.
