Not positive, but I think this is from the search for Dylan.

I don’t post much anymore as I have such difficulty writing without tears streaming from my face and it makes it very difficult to see and to write, but I need to say thank you. To all of you for not giving up on us and for not giving up on Dylan. I still struggle daily and know that I will for eternity. Even when justice is served it will not bring my baby back but at least he will know that we never gave up on him and did whatever we could to make sure the person who did this to him suffers as much as he may have during his last few hours on this mortal earth. I am not a vengeful person, I am a peaceful person but the minute my son was murdered my entire being changed. I wasn’t done being Dylan’s mother, there was so much more we should have done and so much we looked forward to doing together. His first date, first car, going to high school, going to Alaska, being an uncle when the time came, all these things. And so for those of you who criticize me for seeking vengeance or pointing fingers all I can say to you is you have obviously not been in a position where you have lost someone so special and been in a position where you know the person who is being accused of doing this is actually quite capable of doing something like this. To the rest of you warriors, thank you. Dylan thanks you too. Talk to him, he can hear us all now and I know he would appreciate it. RIP my son. You are gone but you will never be forgotten. Elaine

There are a few things that are certain about Dylan Redwine that no one can take away. He was a funny boy who liked to play practical jokes, he was a bright kid with a great vocabulary, he was excited about his video/Xbox games and loved to play in the river. He had an amazing arm and could throw a perfect spiral football and make a long throw from centerfield to get a player out in baseball and liked to be in the "pickle" because he was fast and could get out of it. He was quick and had great balance. He was excellent in basketball and had globetrotter moves that were envied. He loved the Boston Red Sox and learned a lot about them when Fever Pitch, the movie, came out. He picked teams initially because he loved the colors. He always wanted to bet his brother against a college football game or a professional match up he was excited about, it would typically end up with one of them doing the others chores if they lost. He loved blue with black. He didn't like to have his picture taken. He could roll his tongue and do silly things to make everyone laugh. He loved his dogs and was incredibly patient with them. He loved his Mutti and he loved Mike and Krystal and his family. He loved his brother Cory so much and texted him often to hang out after school and work. He had a high pitch giggle that was infectious. He enjoyed gardening each season with his Mutti. His friends were so special to him and he loved his Oma. He was giving and kind and thoughtful. He didn't like to hear bad things said of those he loved and if he did, he would defend them. He had a wonderful future ahead of him and was excited about it. He was happy to be in Colorado Springs. These are things about Dylan that make him a person and not a case. Dylan is not here in physical form, but a soul with such love and joy and energy that cannot be taken away by anyone, ever. He is love and light. He is joy and hope for the new ones coming in. He is forever in the lives and hearts of those who love him and for that, there is no time or calendar with ending. Dylan is....forever. xoxo

Yes he did, and I think he and others lied about why he went where he went, and what he was doing there.

IMO, HE KNEW and HE RAN.

Lia Paredes Howard That really is Dylan! Everyone in our family loved Dylan, he always made us smile. For so many years, he collected football jerseys and Elaine kept a list so he didn't get duplicates. He loved to play card games at family gatherings, especially Shanghai Rummy and Knack (a german game played with special cards). Lisa, thank you so much for all this, he was one of a kind and we miss him terribly.

Jordan expected to be named next Lewis-Palmer ice hockey coach

Posted: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 10:25 pm

 

Jordan doesn't plan to make any drastic changes to the program, but he has expanded the locker rooms at the arena, adding several more showers in the process. He also plans to make subtle changes to the uniforms, as well as including a way to honor Dylan Redwine with a ribbon on the back of the team helmets.

Redwine went missing Nov. 19, 2012, the day after arriving in Vallecito to spend Thanksgiving with his father during a court ordered visit. Dylan was 13-years-old at the time and was an eighth grader at Lewis-Palmer Middle School. Dylan and his mom had moved to the Monument area from Bayfield a few months before. Dylan's father, Mark Redwine, said he left his home to run errands that morning and when he returned Dylan was gone. Earlier this month, Redwine's remains were found in La Plata County.

Karin Hatfield Beautiful! He also Loved bingo! The last time he went with me he won around $75. he counted how many people that he loved would be with him for Christmas that year (turned out to be his last Christmas on earth), including his oma, and aunts, and split up the money between us! He gave us a card with $7.00 each! How can anybody hurt since a caring unselfish child?

Child Abductions
When Custody Issues Lead to Violence


06/06/13

An analysis of recent FBI child abduction investigations has revealed a disturbing trend: Non-custodial parents are increasingly abducting and threatening to harm their own kids to retaliate against parents who were granted legal custody of the children.

“Unfortunately, the threat of violence—and death—in these cases is all too real,” said Ashli-Jade Douglas, an FBI analyst in our Violent Crimes Against Children Intelligence Unit who specializes in child abduction matters. “ Most non-custodial parental abductors want retaliation. They feel that if they can’t have the child full time—or any amount of time—then the other parent shouldn’t have the child, either.”

An analysis of all FBI child abduction cases where a motivation was known shows that custodial-motivated abductions—in which a son or daughter is taken against the will of the child and the custodial parent—have increased from 9 percent in fiscal year 2010 to 50 percent in fiscal year 2012. Sometimes the motivation is to convince the custodial parent to stay in a relationship; more often it is to harm the child in an act of retaliation. This trend appears to be on the rise, Douglas said. At least 25 instances of such abductions have been reported to the FBI since October.

“Our analysis indicates that children age 3 years and younger of unwed or divorced parents are most at risk of being abducted by their non-custodial parent,” Douglas added. “And the timely reporting of the abduction by the custodial parent to law enforcement is crucial in increasing the likelihood of recovering the child unharmed and apprehending the offender.” (See sidebar.)

Quick Reporting Key to Child Safety

There is a common misconception that domestic custodial child abductions are considered a family matter that should not be investigated by law enforcement. In fact, when such abductions are reported to law enforcement, the child should be considered to be in danger—especially in cases when the non-custodial parents have previously threatened to abduct or harm their children, are mentally disabled, or are unemployed or otherwise financially unstable.

“The timely reporting of the abduction by the custodial parent to law enforcement is critical,” said Ashli-Jade Douglas, an analyst in our Violent Crimes Against Children Intelligence Unit. “That greatly increases the chances of recovering the child unharmed.”

Some recent cases include:

In 2009, a non-custodial mother abducted her 8-month-old son from his custodial father in Texas. She told the father she killed the boy to prevent the father from employing his custodial rights and in retaliation for his alleged involvement with other women.

 

In 2012, a non-custodial father in Utah abducted and killed his 7- and 5-year-old sons and then committed suicide. He was angry over not being afforded sole custody of the children.

“In contrast to international parental abductions, our analysis indicates that domestic custodial abductions are more likely to have violent outcomes for children,” Douglas explained, adding that a number of factors contribute to this trend. About 46 percent of American children are born to unwed parents, and 40 to 50 percent of marriages end in divorce. That usually leaves one parent with custody of the child.

 

“The other big takeaway from our analysis,” she added, “is that law enforcement must act quickly in non-custodial abductions to keep children from being harmed. It’s mind-boggling to think that a parent would hurt their child to retaliate against the other parent,” Douglas said, “but in that moment, they make themselves believe that it’s okay.”

"I can look back over the past 10 years and there were no steps wasted, and there are no regrets,'' she said. "I did all I knew to do and I think that gives me greater peace now." "I've lived every parent's worst nightmare and I'm the parent that nobody wants to be," she said.

Psychiatrist Phillip Resnick on Why Parents Kill Their Own Kids

By Maia Szalavitz @maiasz

Feb. 01, 2011

 

Over the course of his 40-year career, Resnick has worked on 40 to 60 cases involving parents who killed their children. Although he cannot offer a mental diagnosis or legal opinion in the Powers’ case, he can discuss the motivations of parents who kill and what we know about them. About 250 to 300 children are murdered by their parents each year.

 

You have identified five main circumstances in which parents kill their children.

The first is “altruistic.” The classic case is the mother who plans to take her own life and believes that the children are better off in heaven with her.

Number Two is the case in which the parent is acutely psychotic.

The third type is fatal battering [as described above].

The fourth is [to get rid of] an unwanted baby, for example an infant born out of wedlock.

The final category is spousal revenge, [in which a parent kills the children to hurt the partner], typically after infidelity.

 

I’ve also read that murders of older children are more likely to be extremely violent.

Actually, the degree of violence depends very much on the child. A 3-year-old you can easily strangle or overdose. Teens are not going to cooperate in being killed so the use of a knife or gun is more necessary. In some cases of fathers who kill teenagers there has been a real standoff and hostility, but for mothers that’s not the usual pattern. I would not say the method of death expresses rage — it’s just what’s needed to take the life of older children.
