At first, Bothuell is speechless as he tries to grapple with the news that his son is alive. But then he enters shock, clenches his chest and gasps for air after realizing his son could have gone missing in the basement for two weeks. As Grace normally does, she asked what the world was thinking.
“Did you check your basement?” the anchor asks.
When the Detroit dad finally composes himself, he answers the question.
“I checked my basement, the FBI checked my basement, the Detroit police checked my basement, my wife checked my basement," he said, still appearing to try to regain his composure.
It was the fourth time the Detroit police had searched the apartment complex with a warrant. The police found the boy behind some boxes and a large plastic drum. They also found bedding nearby.
