Kristopher Loesch was 10 when he was last seen on August 31, 2000. Although attending school in Spokane, Washington, his last known whereabouts were in Pima County, Arizona. He was described as a Caucasian boy with brown hair, blue eyes, about 5 feet 0 inches and 100 pounds. Reports say he may have used the names Kristopher Robin Kessler, Kristopher Hanson, or Christopher Robinson.

Kristopher’s disappearance is tied to a violent family history. His maternal grandparents died in separate incidents in the 1990s; his grandfather Gary Loesch was shot in 1995 and his grandmother Barbara Loesch was found dead in a hot tub in 1998. In 2004 a man, Bradley Steckman, confessed to killing Barbara and implicated Tina Loesch and Skye Hanson; investigators later reopened Gary Loesch’s killing. Tina, Hanson and Kristopher reportedly moved between Idaho, Arizona and Washington thereafter, and Kristopher attended school in Spokane Valley under an assumed name before stopping.

In November 2008 Tina Loesch and Skye Hanson were found dead in a vehicle northwest of Tucson in what investigators concluded was a suicide pact; a six-page note did not admit to the grandparents’ killings. Kristopher was not at that scene and has not been seen or heard from since. Anyone who knew Kristopher, his family, or his whereabouts after 2000 is asked to come forward with information.
