This........ on the heels of the family refusing to give HO a scent article to help find Kyron. 

Shouldn't they be grateful and thanking all of them for showing up? Not kicking some of them out!

Thanks Wyks, also did you hear about the sock being found not being Kyron's sock? Don't know if it is true or not, so thought I would ask you.

BREAKING NEWS:

Kyron Horman's mother Desiree Young gives press a statement asking Terri Horman to cooperate with investigators. More details and video soon.

Thank you Wyks.

I have to say - this is not some complex out this world abduction scheme that some are making it out to be. IF Terri IS the POI, and I have no doubt she is in the eyes of the police, who in their right mind places themselves with the missing person. And then takes pictures? It's crazy.

What kind of reverse psychological craziness is that?

I have no idea if she did this cause I wasn't there, but from what I have read - this is the weirdest abduction case I can ever remember.

That's true Rob!!  I need several spreadsheets just to keep up.

One more thing, Kaine working for Intel would give him computer expertise no? Access to Terri's phone, computer, knowledge of pings, piggybacking. Timothy Lawless was also a computer expert. Dunno if Kaine is any sort of expert, just putting it out there since he does work for Intel. Lawless clan do have a place in Oregon where Mommy Lawless threatened to disappear with Melissa's daughter so the birth father couldn't see his child. Where is Doubledecker? Can someone ask her to see if there are any ties between these clans by either churches or ancestry?

Intel is a chipmaker. Sorta different than being a code writer for say, Microsoft.

Chip are processors, such as a Celeron.

Kaine is an engineer at Intel. He works (or worked) at the company's Jones Farm campus in Hillsboro, in the architecture group. (At the time of his first divorce.) That's all I can find on his employment at Intel so far.

Thanks Brandi and I love the pics you have been putting together - your kung-fu is strong!

I was just making the point that Intel and being a computer expert are slightly different.

Like someone who works at auto zone selling car accessories is in the auto industry, but not an expert mechanic.

Intel is vital to the computer industry, but they essentially a parts supplier to computer manufacturers, such as HP and Dell.

Yup. I was just adding onto your information.

Thanks, Rob!

Ok, one more point about this lol.

How much more can this woman cooperate? She has given two voluntary polygraphs. How many have you taken Desiree? have you been cleared?

What Desiree really meant to say, in my opinion, is - Take the police to the body, but didn't want to offend everyone nationwide with a possible wild accusation and possibly garner sympathy for Terri.

Here's some raw footage of the statement by Desiree today. You can see quite a few family and group dynamics at play if you watch it all.

Kyron Horman's blended family: Friends describe a close, supportive group (Sat. June 19, 2010, 10:00 AM)

The dark-haired and redheaded women standing side by side at a news conference in the Kyron Horman investigation share a longtime bond with the 7-year-old boy gone missing. With a nation looking on, they shared their grief under the glare of television.

The mother, Desiree Young, 38, and stepmother, Terri Moulton Horman, 40, have been friends for years, long before the beaming and bespectacled 7-year-old went missing from Skyline School in northwest Multnomah County. Since his June 4 disappearance, his blended family has hunkered down out of public view, emerging only as a group. Neither mother has spoken publicly, and the dads have read only prepared statements.

But details of their relationship have emerged in multiple interviews by The Oregonian with friends and family.

Terri was the last known person to see Kyron after she took him to school that day, and she was the first to report him missing when she discovered he wasn't on the school bus that afternoon. That day followed years of caring for him. When Kyron was a toddler, Desiree went to Canada to seek treatment for a serious medical condition. Her close friend Terri became Kyron's caretaker.

The story dates to 2000, when Desiree married Kaine Horman. The couple's relationship quickly soured, however, and they planned to separate, but then Desiree got pregnant. So, they gave it another shot. But in August 2002, when Desiree was eight months pregnant, she filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.

Kyron was born Sept. 9, 2002, and Kaine and Desiree were officially divorced in 2003. Kaine and Desiree shared custody, but Kyron mostly lived with Desiree until 2004, when she went to Canada after suffering kidney failure.

Kyron moved in full time with his dad, now 36, an engineer at Intel. With a demanding job at the company's Jones Farm campus in Hillsboro, where he works in the architecture group, Kaine needed child care. So, Desiree's friend Terri moved in to help.

"Someone had to watch the baby," said Amanda Howard, the former wife of Kaine's brother Kristian. "Terri was her friend. She moved in just to help with the baby."

Terri brought her son, James, now 16, from her first marriage.

Two months after leaving for Canada, Desiree returned to the United States with $30,000 in medical bills. To get back on her feet, she moved in with her family in Medford, who helped support her.

Desiree never tried to regain custody of Kyron, though she has maintained a close relationship with her son, caring for him every weekend or so with her new husband, Medford police Detective Tony Young.

After Desiree returned to Oregon, Terri and Kaine stayed under the same roof while he worked at Intel and she cared for the kids. What started as a caregiving relationship blossomed.

In April 2007, they got married. Looking buff in their bathing suits, they said their vows in a small ceremony on a shimmering beach in Kauai, the Garden Isle of Hawaii.

This........ on the heels of the family refusing to give HO a scent article to help find Kyron. 

Control freak, and I'll leave it at that. This is all ridiculous, what was the point to this news conference?

Kyron Horman’s Family Boots WW and The Oregonian from Bizarre News Event

News / WW on WW | Email This Post Email This Post |

The saga of missing 7-year-old Kyron Horman got a little more bizarre today at a news conference held this morning by the boy’s family.

The event at Brooks Hill Historic Church was arranged on Wednesday by Kyron’s father Kaine Horman, biological mother Desiree Young and her husband, Medford Police Detective Tony Young.

Absent was Terri Moulton Horman, the stepmom investigators say was the last person known to have seen Kyron before his June 4 disappearance. Kaine Horman filed for divorce and a restraining order against her earlier this week. And she’s since hired star criminal defense attorney Stephen Houze.

Today, Kaine Horman and the Youngs sat at the head of a table in a room filled with more than two dozen national and local reporters for print, TV and radio. As the meeting began at 10 a.m., Kaine Horman started out by explaining “the agenda.” This wasn’t going to be a typical press conference.

Horman said the family’s goal was to make “the story” about Kyron. With news of the divorce and investigators homing in on the stepmom, media coverage (including in WW) has increasingly focused on Kyron’s troubled family.

First came Horman’s “ground rules,” as he described them. No cameras. No recordings. Everything was off the record and couldn’t be reported, unless agreed otherwise. Horman made everyone in the room agree to these rules before proceeding. And so this roomful of reporters consented, in essence, not to be reporters.

Horman then laid out how the meeting would go. They would take questions, make some phone calls (presumably to investigators, to find out what they could say in their answers), then return and make an on-the-record statement. But first, Horman wanted all the reporters he didn’t know to introduce themselves.

KEX radio, KATU, The Portland Tribune and “Inside Edition” all got the nod from Horman. But then came Shane Kavanaugh and Bryan Denson of The Oregonian.

Horman said the family didn’t like The Oregonian’s coverage and wanted them to leave. Horman said the daily had failed to be a “team player.”

“This is a team, and if we’re not going to play as a team, there’s no point in being here,” Horman said. “This is about Kyron.”

Denson objected, saying he’s new to the story and after 28 years in journalism he’s “a pretty good reporter.” But there was no arguing. The family wanted The O gone, and a woman who said she’s a manager at the church escorted them out. The biggest newspaper in the state had been eighty-sixed.

I introduced myself and said I’m with Willamette Week. Horman said the family has the same problem with WW. I agreed to leave. And so the paper with the second-biggest circulation in Oregon was also kicked out.

As far as I was concerned, after getting kicked out all deals were off. I wasn’t going to keep the meeting off the record.

According to a reporter who stayed, the family went on to lay out more “ground rules” for the future. They said they’d hold these “news conferences” (if you can call them that) twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays, as time allows. They would make prepared statements, answer some questions submitted in writing and may also do occasional interviews.

“They want us to cover Kyron, and they’re not going to get neck-deep in gossip and rumors,” the reporter said.

ABC News convinced the family to make an on-the-record statement in front of one camera, with the tape available as pool footage for other reporters. After more than an hour inside the church, the reporters were sent outside while the family stayed in to prepare a statement.

The reporter at the scene said The Oregonian had somehow gotten back on the family’s good side and was among those waiting outside to hear the prepared statement.

At shortly after 12:30, the family emerged from the church. We’ll update this post with any on-the-record statement they make

This........ on the heels of the family refusing to give HO a scent article to help find Kyron. 

I just read that too Wyks - it's outrageous. What kind of guy is Kaine? not very helpful if you ask me.

This is Gerry McCann - and I bet most here have not seen this pic - this is when the entire country turned on him and wanted to lynch 'em. This Kaine guy better watch his step or he may find himself with little help.

Reading that disturbed me, it is almost as if they are running a business instead of looking for a missing child.

[Wyks]

Thanks Wyks, also did you hear about the sock being found not being Kyron's sock? Don't know if it is true or not, so thought I would ask you.

You're welcome Rosie! 

And I can report at this point .. that no, the sock was not Kyron's.  It was evident to HO early on, but he needed confirmation first.

I guess she has told enough of the truth so far that she has avoided being arrested - despite two polygraphs.

< shrugs >

She is under no obligation to take a polygraph and they are inadmissible in court, as we all know. The police have her cell records, and I'm sure her computer records - isn't it the job of the police to PROVE someone has committed a crime and not the job of the alleged target to surrender her rights?

just sayin'

I can't get it to work, but that could be my browser or settings or something.  I don't have much luck with any video at kgw.  Maybe others will have better luck!!

[Tracygirl]

WTH kind of press conference was that? What were they thinking kicking out reporters they believe have reported unfairly, what do they think they will do now? LOL that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard of. These 2 media outlets have had by far the most stories published about this boy. Again, I don't know what they are doing. Let me add, if they didn't want the divorce and RO to be a focus, why did he file now? Why not wait until Kyron was found? They have just ignited their own fire. Lets watch how much comes out now about the 3 there today, lol. Media's gloves are off.

Why do they say Kyron is alive? Do they know who took him but do not know where he is? If so, tell the public perhaps someone has seen them. I am thinking as I did yesterday, Terri is covering for someone, willing to take the fall for a person she loves.

Oh wow, I have not ever seen that photo of Gerry, and good think I didn't. I agree, Kaine better watch his step.

I am really thinking you are so right, Terri is covering for someone, a person she loves. It would be best if they had no more of these press conferences, it was nothing but a farce.
