Blaze Bernstein Still Missing

golding76 — Wed, 10 Jan 2018 18:49:07 GMT

The 19-year-old University of Pennsylvania student has not been seen since the night of January 2. Very suspicious circumstances surrounding his disappearance from a park near his Orange County, Calif., family home. He was home on break and set to fly back to Penn this past Sunday.

How dreadful this is.

Sadly, his body has been found in the park in which he was last seen. Prayers for his family.

ETA, I just read it on my ABC News app.

Very sad. Why didn't the friend go with him? Drugs? Sex? Another teachable moment....

@MomOf4 A "friend" was with him at 11:00 and "saw" him entering the park? That was the last person to see him....what don't we know about this?! My heart goes out to family and friends.

I hadn't heard this story. It seems lately these types of missing cases don't turn out well. 🙏

The so-called "friend" is coming into clearer focus as a possible suspect.

No matter what they find out, that "friend" is/was NO friend. Not in ANY way.

Talk about being betrayed......

This is why I tell my children to be careful out there. What I DON'T tell them is that though I trust my boys, I do NOT trust those out there. This is a prime example as to why.

So sad.

This story affected me too. A smart, educated, young guy leaving his parents house in San Diego with his friend. Blaze didn't take his wallet, glasses, medications. The friend drives him to a park and the friend goes to the bathroom in the park - and Blaze is nowhere to be seen. doesn't make sense.

I found that very odd, also. I wonder if he was lured out somehow. His mother said he never went out without those items. He also didn’t take his phone which he always had with him.

The park doesn't look that big. Why did it take that long to find him?

They had drones out and lots of volunteers looking.

Now they are saying he did take his phone but it was turned off an hour later. Also, his friend said that Blaze was meeting someone but didn't say who or why. Seems unlikely to me. Three search warrants have been issued but police aren't giving any details on them.
