...Black said he finds it very strange that Shawn did not explain who he was, but said, "but of course we don't know all the facts. But yes, it is very strange. Yeah, there are a lot more questions out there for me than answers. Four and a half years seems an awful long time. By then, of course, he was four years into it." Other reports have speculated that the boy was intimidated into being docile and obedient to Devlin, who is said to have a collection of guns at home. Black said the officer who made...

...Shawn was friends with other kids in the neighborhood but never seemed to be with them when they headed off to school. Says neighbor Alma Rodriguez: "He was a skater-kind of kid, who didn't speak to anyone." Rodriguez, who lives in a two-bedroom apartment across the tiny green lawn from Devlin's apartment with her husband and two small children, said she never saw Shawn leave in the morning for school.
