Slow day in PBT so I thought I'd share something I just learned about that needs a book or movie.

The disappearance of Bobby Dunbar. He was found and the man he was with with accused of kidnapping Bobby. However, a woman speaks up that the boy was her child, and the man did not kidnap him. The Dunbars won custody in court and the child was deemed Bobby. These events happened in 1912 and 13.

The decedent's of Bobby and the decedent's of the lady claiming the child was hers, decide to research, do DNA testing, and find the truth. This effected 3 families, the Dunbars, the Andersons (lady who claimed the child was hers) and the family of the man accused of kidnapping Bobby.

Wow, I've only read the wikipedia summary so far, but what a fascinating and horrifying tale! Thanks for sharing. Sounds like a novel, but not.

Summer weekends are always a slower time for PBT . . .enjoy the extra reading time ;).

Pretty crazy story!!! Very interesting. I'm a BIG fan of unsolved mysteries.

Another interesting one I had never heard of until recently.. the Circleville, Ohio Letter writer. The story is REALLY too much to write a short synopsis about, but it's so crazy and really worth the read of the article!!! I promise!! lol.

Here's a link to info about the case
