Samuel Kirtley was actually abducted Sunday,9-6-09, but the Amber Alert wasn't issued until today!
I sure hope Roberts keeps his crap together and doesn't harm Samuel, let him go, drop him off somewhere safe with a phone so he can call 911.... Please God, direct both of them!!

The found him, safe. Seems the CPS director gave the father permission to take this kid, even though there is an open abuse case against him. Lovely.



BAYTOWN, TX (KTRK) -- Local police say a mistake by Child Protective Services was a factor in an Amber Alert issued Wednesday.
Samuel Kirtley, 14, was found late Wednesday night and the Amber Alert was canceled. Baytown police say Texas Rangers called around 10:20pm to say they recovered the boy in Weslaco. The teen had no obvious injuries. No new

Whoa! I need to go to sleep, but I just had to put this here!

Apparently the boy's father was being investigated by Child Protective Services, and now police say it was a CPS worker who told them the father should be allowed to have the boy.
The boy's father showed up at League City police demanding officers help him get his son back. What happened afterward is raising a lot of questions.


"We let him down, that this happened. We're not gonna let this happen to him again," said Nancy Stout, Samuel's grandmother.
Nancy, 83, loves her grandson Samuel unconditionally.
"I've got lots of grandchildren, but he's the most interesting," said Nancy.
So when Samuel fled to her house for the third time, Nancy took him in. She says she knew about the problems between her son and grandson.

Go Granny Go! Kudos to you!

Stout's son, Neal Roberts, 49, has been convicted of an aggravated kidnapping in 1995 in Travis County, and a family violence assault in Galveston County in 1998.
So he when he showed up at Nancy's house to take his son, Nancy didn't want to let her grandson go. However, police said she had to. Their reasoning?
"It's the law. The father has the right," Nancy was told by the officers.


The whole story begins August 28 on the Fred Hartman Bridge. A deputy constable stopped Samuel as he was walking across. He said he planned to walk the entire 30 miles from Baytown to his grandmother's house in League City. He was seeking refuge.
"Basically he said he was trying to flee from his father's home, in Baytown due to physical abuse that was occurring," said Det. Cliburn.

Roberts violent history will surely go against him, in the case with Samuel, I pray! Samuel deserves a happy and stable home! Pretty desperate for a child to walk 30 miles!!
The PoPo recorded the conversation with the CPS worker, so no denying or backtracking..... Smart Officer!!
