Charles Bothuell, Sr. and Missing Son

Last night on Nancy Grace a father found out his 12-year old missing son was found alive in the father’s basement. You get to witness a rare moment being recorded on TV when the father finds out.

We couldn’t ask for better footage to get to the truth in this case.

Do I believe Charles Bothuell, Sr. was surprised that they found his son?

No. I do not. Not at all.

Instead, I see someone shell shocked, caught on camera thinking like crazy what the hell happened and how he was going to handle it.

Charles doesn’t show any concern for the well being of his son nor does he seem curious about what happened.

The fact he doesn’t get up and get to his son’s side bothers me, too.

And when I see the father who is quite void of emotions give the celebratory arms, he leaks anger in partial form which is inconsistent with a man who is happy his son has been found.

And if you listen closely, we hear Charles say something telling. Very telling under his breath.

Does anyone hear it?

It says it all.
