A Redditor's Dark Confession

reddit among other platforms in the internet are home to tons of first-hand accounts and stories most of which are unverifiable having a degree of anonymity grants people a certain level of comfort that makes them much more likely to share things that they would otherwise keep to themselves it certainly is true that people love to talk and certain people love to talk for attention but sometimes it's hard to determine the motive behind a certain pose as an onlooker a healthy amount of skepticism can be useful when determining whether or not a reddit thread is worth your time but occasionally one such circumstance can leave you questioning just how real a post is just to clarify though reddit is absolutely no stranger to trolling in instances of elaborate fiction but in this case today this mystery doesn't seem to add up in the way of fiction in today's video we're gonna take a look at one such redditor who seems to shared a bit too much information about their past [Music] On January 21st 2016 a post on ask reddit would gain quite a bit of attention it was aptly titled to those who have accidentally killed someone what went wrong this reddit thread got over 6,800 up votes in over 10,000 comments and the most notable is from a now-deleted Reddit user whom after posting this comment almost immediately deleted their account this post in question read the following this still haunts me to this day as kids we had a hideout in this dirt cliff slash Cove this is the best approximation I can find on Google only three times taller and probably about ten times as wide there was a neighborhood kid who in hindsight was probably mentally handicapped in some way but to us he was just the weird creepy kid this was the 80s and we weren't exactly raised PC three of us were headed to our base and we found the creepy kids sitting at the top of our guard chair we yelled at him to get out and he said something like make me and started lobbying dirt clods and sticks down at us we all ran around the side to make our way up it gets pretty fuzzy here but all I remember is he fell I still remember the sound when we got back down to check on him he was in a very awkward position with blood coming out of his mouth we all just freaked out and ran home and as far as I know no one has ever spoke a word of this to anyone we didn't go back for over a month and never said a word of it between us again this was the 80s so media wasn't like today chances are it got a small article in the newspaper B section like something like missing mentally disabled child found dead after fall or something like that in case you were wondering what the photo was that was linked in the original post I will show it here it just seems to show a cliff with a dirt trail in a somewhat rural area however it does not give away too many details for the average onlooker what sparks this entire controversy is from a comment from the username ad 33 BBF 9 when they chimed in this user while I have to paraphrase here essentially asked the original poster if this story was about Scot CLE Schulte interestingly enough they're after the original poster goes on to delete their entire account if we take a moment to Google Scot CLE Shelties case we get a very disturbing account of events surrounding his disappearance according to VC Co on August 6 1988 9 year-old Scott Allen CLE Sheltie vanished it was the last day of school for pupils at Coverdale elementary school kaliesha LT had just completed the first grade owing to his learning difficulties he came home from school to change his clothes then wandered off into the nearby woods to play he was last seen around 4:30 p.m. in his hometown of st. Charles Missouri walking down Ken drive towards West Adams from his family house on laverne's Drive sometime after leaving a violent storm appeared over st. Charles drenching the area in wind and rain kaliesha LT was never seen again the boy's disappearance sparked a massive search effort bloodhounds tracked CLE Shelties path for five miles northeast before the dogs lost his scent police searched tunnels and caves in the area and the drenched nearby streams and creeks in an effort to locate the body however nothing was found something to note here is that a large storm occurred directly after this boy went missing which would directly explain why an individual child's body was never found people are still searching for this point of this day there hasn't ever been any closure in this case in addition to that there's been a Nancy Grace profile featuring the brother doing the interview let's take a look as far as I know family and friends would have been my older sister Stacey before she had left for work and stuff and she was there when he had come home and changed after after school on that so as far as I know it was it was Stacey and what did Stacey see he was the last time she had seen him he was at the top of the hill just playing and running around being a being a kid like we did you know I know people say not to play in the streets but that's where we played up at the top of the street and that's where he was and this was a fairly urban but rural area too you were sort of out in the country right where kids just could feel free to play yeah it was a neighborhood I mean it was a neighborhood full of a hundred kids probably in the neighborhood but you know right five minutes from our house was nothing farm lands and fields and have their trails and stuff like that how violent was that storm late afternoon and did you think your brother had had just hidden to have cover yeah it was it was a pretty bad storm you know it just came and went pretty pretty quick you know I don't think he hid necessarily like hid somewhere we just assumed that he was inside someone's house you know playing inside with another friend you know and that's just kind of then started knocking on doors on every door we could when did your parents finally call police um it was later in the evening I can't you know I'm not for sure on the time 8:00 somewhere around there it was uh you know before it had gotten dark and I understand they came right out yeah so what did they do that evening and the next day and the next few days in the next week um that night I'm not you know it's pretty vague for me because I was I was young so that night you know I can't remember exactly what all what they did but that next morning was was full-fledged they had had a search party set up with dogs and helicopters and horse backs and and you name it you know anything now let's try and take a look at a map and piece together this situation from a reddit thread and create a new hypothesis from another source in this case we can see exactly where Scott was last spotted by a neighbor to God was last seen not far from its home in the 3300 block of Allah Behrens Drive near a wooded area known as the trails it was just before a fierce thunderstorm swept through the area as long as six weeks after his disappearance police conducted large-scale searches of the area near Scott's home the searches involved digging at a labyrinth of caves in the wooded hillside where Scott was known to play with the other neighborhood children if we take a look at where this kid was last spotted it doesn't make much sense as the area of the land has been developed since the 1980s one user on another reddit thread named paramecia antic posted the following location that is now Fox Hill Park in st. Charles had dirt trails in several steep gorges cutting through it in the 1990s it's a little over a mile by foot from the last sighting of Scott Klee schulte route I 370 wasn't built been so it was accessible by foot today it has been graded somewhat and has stormwater management areas but you can still see the cliffs that remain a deep ravine is seen directly in the direction as the child was walking which seems to put forth a reliable location as to where this child could have fallen which makes this entire story seem much more believable the only thing I will say that seems to contradict us though is the fact that this boy's scent was followed for five miles where this location was only one mile away now I want to also point out another lead regarding this case that dates all the way back to 2007 but it's weak to say the least according to V T Co the last fresh lead in this case was in 2007 when investigators began looking into Michael Devlin for a possible involvement in several missing children cases including the 1991 disappearance of Charles Arlen Henderson in the 2005 disappearance of Bianca Piper after Shawn Hornbeck a 15 year old boy who disappeared in 2002 and William owned be a 13 year old boy who was abducted in 2007 were discovered to have been held captive in Devlin's house Devlin ultimately pled guilty to charges of kidnapping and child molestation and was sentenced to life in prison despite repeated interrogations by a special task force no evidence was found implicating Devlin in the disappearance of Scott CLE Schulte I can't understand why Michael Devlin would be seen as a lead regarding Scott if he had already been sentenced to life in prison if no evidence was found linking him together why is this seen as a likely lead on the Internet it doesn't make sense in my opinion in conclusion I see the events surrounding this to be incredibly specific all the details surrounding the initial post to the now deleted a reddit account all point to this specific case almost down to every detail the only thing that seems out of place are the location of the body which was never turned up and the scent going on for five miles however both of these things seem to be explained away pretty perfectly by the large torrential storm here is an excerpt from a website regarding training dogs to track sense after rain it reads the following people wonder if dogs can track and rain and the answer is yes rain will wet the scent and refresh it but a big storm with torrents of rain will ruin the scent trail as will heavy winds also if an extensive search was done then something must have turned up however I will say that it wouldn't be the first time a search for a missing person has overlooked something now with the years gone by it's almost impossible to locate any remains even if they are buried underneath the now developed area if this account is true and they're not just trolling with specific details to this case then this is really disturbing this family has been looking for their child and trying to gain some kind of closure for over 30 years and to think that someone has this stored in the back of their memory is really unnerving I honestly doubt though that someone's going to come forth at this point and sting how long ago this was launching a full-scale investigation is next to impossible especially with the date being so far in the past for now though assuming this is true or there is some merit to this post this may be the best explanation to what happened to Scott Glee Schulte this is barely sociable have a good night [Music] you
