Authorities believe Adam left of his own accord and may have left the state of Ohio, but his mother stated they had a good relationship and she doesn't believe he would have stayed gone for this long without getting in touch with her. She believes her son met with foul play.
For unspecified reasons, caution is advised when approaching him. Adam's case remains unsolved.
