Cold case: What happened to Danny Barter?

[SoUncool]

Danny Barter in 1959 when he disappeared at age 4 1/2.


Age progression of what Danny Barter might look like today at age 54.

Here's a bit of the story from the family's website:

Daniel Barter was born on December 12, 1954 to Mr. & Mrs. Paul Barter. He was the 3rd youngest child of 7 siblings at the time of his disappearance. The eighth child was born after making it a total of 8, he was 4 years old, just 6 months away from his 5th birthday. Danny weighed 50 lbs and was 3'0" tall. He was last seen at his family's campsite in Perdido Bay, AL wearing only a pair of gray boxer shorts. How could such a handsome little boy just disappear? Was his wavy brown hair and big brown eyes the reason he was kidnapped, if indeed he ever was? His mother seemed to think so. In fact, these are her exact words as told in the Mobile Register 6/21/59, "I can understand why someone would want to take him because he's such a pretty child."

O.K.....It just does not sound right. Maybe the mother knew something that she never told. Then again, maybe I just read too much bad news and I'm an overly suspicious person.
