Dylan Redwine's Father Denies Involvement in 13-Year-Old's Death
July 8,2013.

--snip--

While law enforcement searched a nearby mountainside last week, Redwine was in Indianapolis, handing out fliers to truck drivers so they could look for his child on their routes.

"I was on a mission to take Dylan's story nationally," Redwine tells PEOPLE. "I always held out hope that I would see my son again."

Instead, he received a call no parent wants to hear.

"They needed me to identify some items of interest," Redwine says. He drove 1,400 miles back to Colorado in fewer than 30 hours and met with deputies, who handed him a binder full of photos. While searching in Vallecito Lake, Colo., not even 10 miles from Redwine's home, police had discovered five human bones, which they later confirmed were Dylan's.

"Where's the remaining 98 percent of my son?" Redwine asks, his voice cracking. Police told him wild animals likely ravaged the rest.

War of Words
Police say Dylan's disappearance is an ongoing criminal investigation. But Mark Redwine's ex-wife Elaine, for one, wonders if her former husband had something to do with it.

They appeared on the Dr. Phil show in February and got into a heated exchange, pointing fingers and shouting accusations. "I didn't lose Dylan," Mark said. "Then why is he gone?" Elaine asked. "You have to answer that question. You had him. Where is he?"

Attempts to reach Elaine for this story were unsuccessful. But the couple's eldest son, Cory, 21, also questions his father's role. "Mark is holding the key," Cory told CBS4 in Denver. "We strongly believe that the last person to see Dylan knows the truth."

Mark Redwine says he came home from doing errands last Nov. 19 to find that Dylan – who was visiting for the week – was gone. "The TV was on. There was a bowl and box of cereal out," he recalls. "After a couple of hours, I got concerned."

‘My son Levon was found'; Child's body removed from Mohawk River

September 6,2013

Ever since 9-month-old Levon Wameling vanished more than three months ago, his father has said he had no idea what happened.

But after Levon’s father, Jevon Wameling, was arrested on burglary charges by state police Thursday, something happened to give Utica police the break that they – and Levon’s mother – had been hoping for.

By the next morning, state police divers recovered from the murky waters of the Mohawk River in North Utica a container with what appears to be an infant’s remains inside, police said.

Human Remains Found In Ohio Home Where Elaina Steinfurth, Missing Toddler, Last Seen

Sept. 6, 2013

TOLEDO, Ohio — Human remains found in the rafters of a garage are likely that of a toddler last seen about three months ago inside a house on the same property, police said Friday.

Investigators said they found the remains Thursday inside a box that was behind other containers and piles of trash in the detached garage.

An autopsy was being conducted Friday and other forensic tests were scheduled over the weekend to determine if the remains are of 19-month-old Elaina Steinfurth, said Toledo Police Chief Derrick Diggs.

"We found what we believe may be baby Elaina," he said.

The home and the garage belong to the family of a man who had been dating the girl's mother.

Both the mother, Angela Steinfurth, and her now-estranged boyfriend, Steven King II, are in jail and accused of obstructing justice. No charges have been filed since the remains were discovered.
