But DNA results proved he is not the missing child, the FBI's Louisville office said. Local authorities are investigating the person's identity."I just got a text from a family member that it's not him.

I hope there are criminal charges that can be brought against this jerk but I do not know what they would be.

He’s also not a teenager. The man is 23. He’s a sick individual who has no heart. The family of real young man who remains missing must be heartbroken. To give them hope and just pull it away. I can’t imagine.

Sad. I was hoping it was.

So who is this guy

MorningExp He should go to jail!!!!!!

Possible mental issue? Schizophrenic?

I wonder what this person thought they were going to get out of this? I mean you're obviously going to get found out rather quickly? Its either you're this kid or you're not...and then you get into trouble for lying to police probably too

Since it’s a 23-year-old man, y’all should show his face

Who does that?

Newsworthy

23. The man is twenty. three.

Also not a teenager 🙄

teenager

😨😨😨

Teenager in Kentucky tells police he is boy who went missing in 2011'I just prayed that when he was old enough that he would remember us and contact us,' Timmothy Pitzen's grandmother said. Memories of the MissouriMiracle 2007 Why does it seem like there’s an underlying doubt to who he is? They should be able to clear this up in a very short period of time! But why are so many people doubting him? I don’t recall the event but it seems tragic for him with his mom gone too! This story gives me hope about seeing my father again. He went out to get beer in 1989 and never came back.
