Richard Cody Haynes, 11, vanished from his home in Kittitas, Washington, on September 12, 2004. The night before, he was punished for refusing to do the dishes and was made to sit at the kitchen table for hours before being sent to his bedroom around midnight. His bicycle and a bag of clothing were later found in a shed near the home, and one sister later told investigators Cody had been severely beaten the day he went missing. Cody’s four sisters were removed from the home and placed in foster care amid allegations of abuse, neglect, and lack of supervision; there were prior reports to Child Protection Services about possible abuse of the children.

Police reported a significant discovery after searching the apartment and noted the kitchen flooring had been replaced without the landlord’s permission. Cody’s father and Harding retained lawyers and did not cooperate with investigators. The case was turned over to the FBI in October 2005 and is treated as a suspected homicide.

Does anyone have information about Cody’s last known movements, the shed where his bicycle was found, or the family at the time of his disappearance?
