Michael Vaughan's parents refuse to give up hope: Full interview

[@greeneyes4007]

I couldn’t even imagine the depths of pain parents of missing children live in.. my heart breaks for them…

[@blondien6072]

Exactly one thing that I can not understand is when people ask questions especially to the parents how can you ask the parents how did you feel when u notice ur child missing like really What do you think they felt???? They were mad scared all of the above you idiots and then that lady got the nerve to ask why call so and so and called the cops first !!!hmmm let's think the man was scared nervous and worried not all parents are the accusers leave the family alone they are going through a lot but you all just look at the parents like murders!! I feel so bad for them good give them the patients and guide them .

[@aliciar8205]

Neighbors need to start coming together in family oriented ways. I am by no means saying anyone of the neighbors are responsible for what happen. We just need to start helping each other more. If I had seen a kid walking around that young alone I would've done something to help get him back to his home and made the parents aware. Instead of judging one another start helping each other. Unless it's is a constant occurence or kids are wandering because they are hungry we shouldn't be calling CPS on one another. Of course if you feel a child is in danger that's one thing but put yourself in the parents shoes how easily and quickly kids can sneak off.

I doubt that they are comfortable in front of a camera, you are being asked questions from a stranger, you have already heard and or read comments from various social media platforms from people that are accusing you so of course you are going to be nervous knowing that your every word and gestures are being scrutinized. I pray all the accusers are never put in this situation because just remember this will then be aimed your way. Isn't it supposed to be innocent until proven guilty? Unless you are able to prove they did something then why not send out positive energy instead. Better yet, find out how YOU can help.

I don't like peoples nervous energy. Playing with his shoe? He was known to wander the neighborhood. I don't believe he was watched very closely 100 percent of the time. "I changed it, the diaper"? There was a time, people got neglect charges, when their kid went missing. One child allegedly fell out of a two story window, got up, and wondered off, no charges. He was found at the bottom of the complex pool, after it was searched. He was placed there after being murdered, and after the intial investigation. Maliyah Bass mother allegedly left her on the apartment complex playground, while she went inside to make some noodles for her, she came back outside, she was missing. She murdered her. She was found in the river, they dumped her body in the storm drain. They got 8,000 from a go fund me, before they were arrested. Her sister displayed shady behavior at the first interview with the media. 👈 Just an observation, and my opinion on it.

There is just a lot to this case that makes no sense. I trust that law enforcement is doing their job. I really think if your son was taken from your home and you have no ideas where he is, that you wouldn’t have your daughter on camera for the world to see.

A little boy was kidnapped out of the church I went to when I was young. Kidnapped right during a Sunday service. Idk the specifics of the case or even remember his name. I do remember though that the church started locking all doors besides the main front doors and the boy was missing for about a year when all of a sudden Denver police found him walking along the side of a major highway. I know he underwent sever trauma by his abductors. I’m not even sure if they ever even caught his abductors or how he was let go or escaped idk. But the fact is is that he was gone and taken for at least a year if not a bit longer and was found. So I just hope these parents don’t lose hope. I pray that Michael aka Monkey is found and brought back home and is found alive and well. Well as well as he can be I just pray for his safe return.

They are not permitted to talk about the investigation. Everyone has an opinion on how a parent should act when they themselves are fortunately not in their shoes.

Nobody's going to talk about the phone call where the mom loses it on her daughter. In the scariest rage filled voice told her she was going to strangle her.

[@driven2187]

This sounds interesting. Where can I find this video??

[@victoriasadler1426]

The reason the dad quit doing interviews, was the public was accusing him right off the bat. I don’t blame him for not doing interviews, people can be so mean & judgmental. This has got to be the worse thing a parent can go through. He has been blaming himself for not keeping a closer eye on his son. Anyone with children, knows how fast they can disappear in a flat second. Stop judging for one day you to will be judged.

[@SaroAmore]

Because dad went to change a sleeping baby's diaper and had to rouse her first? For 15-20 min? What was he doing with the baby alone that long and why change a sleeping baby's diaper? Why wake her to do it? Why was Michael in his boxer briefs? What is dad doing to these babies? Dad let his 5 year old go outside in his boxer briefs at dinner time to go find a playmate? He also gives clear nonverbal cues of a liar and so does mom. I think this is a super disturbed couple and pray the truth about whatever they do and did to their kids comes out.

[@victoriasadler1426]

@@SaroAmore if that’s right where your mind goes, that says a lot about you!!! Try listening to all the interviews, and the police conferences. Get your mind out of the gutter, and only listen to the facts. Little kids run around in the underwear often, when it’s warm out. Dad woke the baby up because she had been asleep along time and she was wet, I’m sure he didn’t want her laying in her own pee, and he, probably like other parents, wanted her to wake up, so she would sleep that night. 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@SaroAmore]

@@victoriasadler1426 Honey that is just reality. It happens daily in this society. Mom is a total liar and narcissist. It has been shown. Watch Harsh Reality youtube where he catches how cold and callous mom really is. Two potential scenarios wouldn't surprise me: She snapped and killed him and had dad cover it up OR the boy walked in on dad doing somethihg to his sister so dad sold him or killed him and got rid of him. Dad failed two polygraphs and is clearly lying in interviews and mom's nonverbal is classic personality disorder vibes....The parents are sus.

[@SaroAmore]

No, kids don't disappear. They're neglectful, abusive parents.

[@Whynotcreate]

@@SaroAmore I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that. It's weird. I think the kid saw him doing something bad and was saying it and he didn't want the kid to tell his mom.

[@lacrumpet]

I hope the family doesn’t read these ignorant comments. I have been following this case from the day it happened. Everything. Every interview. Every update. These parents are innocent. They are heartbroken and desperate to find their missing son. Every possible thing they can do to keep Michael in the news they do. Every penny that has been raised for the family they have put towards the reward fund. All they want is for their son to come home. Put yourselves in their shoes and instead of casting aspersions on them how about sharing this story where you are? A missing poster. Anything to keep Michael’s face front and center.

[@blueeyedangel98]

If you've been following since the beginning you'd know that information has changed with almost every single interview that has been done, and this is what the second? Time Tyler has spoken in a year. Brandi (who wasn't there) has been doing all the interviews, and the only thing that's been consistent is that information keeps changing. So you'd understand why some of us are questioning things.

[@bette-davis-eyes290]

You must be new to following cases like this. I am an advocate for missing families, drug addicts and rape victims. I am also an EMT, and my father has been a criminal investigator for the last 33 years. We have seen cases where parents are constantly pleading for the child's return and safety. And they do everything the investigators ask. And 3-4 years later the parents are arrested and convicted. Several cases the parents were guilty the whole time and in the end the truth comes out. Wolves disguise themselves in sheep's clothing all the time

@@deanhopkins4729 nobody should judge anyone that’s not been found guilty of a crime. Unfortunately that doesn’t stop the public from doing so.
