No One Suspected Anything

As time passed, unbelievably, Shawn would not only have a cellphone and Internet access, but he was also left alone most of the time in Devlin’s home while he worked. The apartment complex was known to be semi rundown, explained by Mike Bales of the Kirkwood Police Department as,” It’s a little lower-income than the rest of Kirkwood. It’s a transient complex; people are moving on and out.” So no one really thought anything of the young boy living with Devlin. They just assumed that he was Devlin’s son.
