Christian Ferguson was nine years old when he vanished from St. Louis, Missouri, in the early morning of June 11, 2003. His father, Dawan Ferguson, called 911 to report that the family’s 1999 Ford Expedition SUV had been stolen with Christian asleep in the backseat. Christian was severely disabled by the metabolic disorder citrullinemia and required daily medication to prevent a life-threatening buildup of ammonia. At the time he disappeared he was wearing only a diaper and wrapped in a multicolored blanket.

About two hours after the report, the Expedition was found abandoned in Ferguson, Missouri, only a few miles from where it had been taken. The vehicle was unlocked with the keys in the ignition and contained valuables including a laptop and cell phones, but Christian was not there. Investigators later noted inconsistencies in Dawan Ferguson’s account and said he refused a polygraph before ending his cooperation. Christian’s parents had been involved in a bitter custody dispute, and his mother had previously expressed concerns about his medical care. Christian’s body has not been found.

Did anyone in St. Louis in June 2003 see the Ford Expedition or the multicolored blanket Christian was wrapped in?
