Parents Of Missing Idaho Children Found In Hawaii

Idaho Statesman

 

It’s been more than four months since an eastern Idaho brother and sister have been seen. This story has made national headlines as authorities try to figure out what happened to seven-year-old JJ Vallow and his 17-year-old sister Tylee.

Earlier this week the kids’ mother and stepfather were located in Kauai, Hawaii, where they’ve reportedly been living for the last couple of months. They were handed a court order to produce the children in a Madison County courtroom by Thursday. 

Nate Eaton with East Idaho News has been following this case from the beginning, and just returned from Hawaii where he tried to learn more. He joins Idaho Matters to talk about what he knows.
