I wasn't real sure where to post this. Yes it's a news article, but could have been in prayers, crimes, etc....So I opted for discussion. I'm a little upset that this case hasn't made World News, but have decided that it's due to the lack of money of the family involved. I am hoping that getting this story out could potentially aid in the search and PLEASE, pray for this little guy...

Search Continues For Woodward Boy Authorities Say Mom Giving Conflicting Stories Posted: 10:51 a.m. CDT July 11, 2002 Updated: 1:00 p.m. CDT July 11, 2002

WOODWARD, Okla. -- Searchers looking for a 6-year-old boy missing for nearly three weeks were concentrating on the area around Fort Supply Lake.

An Oklahoma Highway Patrol airplane flew over the lake late Wednesday and law officers searched on the ground for any sign of Logan Lynn Tucker, who disappeared June 23.

"They're looking for anything suspicious - dirt that's been turned over, anything that might resemble a grave," Woodward County Sheriff Les Morton said.

Officers planned to search near the lake Thursday with cadaver dogs and helicopters.

The child was last seen 18 days ago at the Woodward home where he lived with his mother, a 4-year-old brother and his mother's acquaintance.

Logan's mother, Katherine L. Rutan, 27, allegedly said her brother from West Virginia had taken the boy with her permission. Others claim Rutan told them Department of Human Services workers took the boy.

Neither of the stories is true, Morton said.

Law officers believe Logan's mother spent time in the area around the lake after she moved to northwestern Oklahoma last month.

The sheriff is not calling her a suspect in the boy's disappearance.

"We still don't have anything concrete to call her a suspect," he said. "Her stories have not panned out and that makes us suspicious of her. It's just her stories and her demeanor aren't what we call consistent with a mother who has a 6-year-old boy missing."

Morton said it's possible the mother sent the child to stay with someone who does not realize the boy is the subject of a manhunt.

"Maybe someone innocently has him and they will see his picture and say, 'Here he is,"' the sheriff said.

Authorities began looking for Logan on Sunday at the request of another of Rutan's brothers, who said family members had not been able to talk to the child on the telephone in weeks.

Date: 7/16/2002 10:54:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Actually there's a pic. available on the Woodward News site. Hold on and I'll get that link ok? He's a doll!!  
Date: 7/16/2002 10:56:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Ok, here's the link.....I'm not sure how long it will bring up this particular page though...

Date: 7/16/2002 11:02:00 AM  From Authorid: 34775    This sounds like another one of those "mom's lowlife boyfriend has a temper" cases that went too far....it is so sad, but that happens to so many children...it is a shame that women aren't more empowered and feel that they need a man to the point that they will stand by them when they hurt their own children. This is just the gut feeling I get from this one...  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:03:00 AM  From Authorid: 15033    Oh, that poor little boy!...what did she do with him? He's so cute. You know sis, it's stories like this that make me so mad. Look at all the media attention the wealthy families get when one of their's disappears, yet someone lower class gets no recognition at all. It's a disgrace. (((Hugs))) and love,  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:06:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Actually Anabel, the mother hasn't been living with the "boyfriend". Apparently she had moved to Ft. Supply with him, but a couple of weeks later moved to Woodward with a friend. I'm not sure what to make of it all, but am horrified that this case hasn't even made World News. I mean, with the amount of acquaintances involved he could be just about anywhere....The police have a "volunteer" search going today. Unfortunately I don't have any horses or 4 wheel drive vehicles, which is what they are requesting the searchers to use....I would love to help and feel so helpless! God I hope they find him alive, but I'm in fear of the worst with this one.....  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:08:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Karen, my most cherished friend throughout space and time! It's so great to see you! I agree.....I'm so disgusted with the lack of news worthiness based on "low" income......You know, even Okla. City news has only covered this ONE time? My God, they are only like 150 Mi. away! I am just at a complete loss here, and this is absolutely making me sick......Big hugs, Love ya,  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:10:00 AM  From Authorid: 34775    Something is fishy here, but it is always the best to at least think positively about it...and send some positive energy out there...  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:16:00 AM  From Authorid: 53836    stories like this absolutely kill me...but it just makes me sick when the immediate family is actually involved, as I read this, mamma looks guilty as sin ( I have written a poem, posted on this board entitled...I HATE WHAT THIS MAN HAS DONE TO HER...on the fourth of July, a precious, PRECIOUS 4 yr old girl was abducted from her home, while apparently playing in her front yard, early that morning...they found her body in a ravine two towns over, only a week after the search began...criminal long gone, it breaks my heart when I realize the injustice in the world we inhabit...She looked like an angel, I can only imagine how she brightened up her mother's heart with one angelic smile! But this...as a mother of almost four specially unique boys, I can't even begin to imagine what could've been going on in that mother's warped head (IF, of course, she is guily...another issue that needs some work...when the parents (always the first to be accused are not guilty, they let the pervert go free with time spent investigation the innocent, heart-broken parents...I am so torn over these aweful, heart-breaking situations...thanks for sharing, though...it's an eye opener to just how sick this world is...I have said a prayer for the family, law enforcement and that the guilty party comes forward on their own conviction~SpaceCase  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:19:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Thank you SpaceCase. I know just what you mean. I am physically nautious, and have been since the story broke last week. I have been praying hard and hoping for the best, but it really doesn't look good for the little guy. There are so many factors the news hasn't published, and we could be led in the wrong direction as a result, but I can't help but be suspicious of this mother....My heart breaks for these innocent children.  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:20:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Also, in the beginning she (mother) had given 6 different stories to different law enforcement reps. as well as family and friends....Apparently she had moved down here to pursue and internet relationship.....  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:32:00 AM  From Authorid: 53748    I saw this on our news a few times TAC but it was only small blurbs of it and just a quick glance at the pic. I was starting to thing that it was just my imagination. But you are right they are not giving near enough coverage on this.  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:35:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    I know. I would think that with a small boy being the "missing" one that it would at least rate a single spot on the World News Coverage, like the Elizabeth Smart case. God bless her too. These stories just really get to me. I'm thinking because I have two children and would literally go insane if they were ever to become "missing"......And this case is even wierder considering there are so many loopholes.....  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:38:00 AM  From Authorid: 15157    My heart and prayers go out for this child to be found. Heavenly Father please send your heavenly Angels to this child...for him to be found.  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:39:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Thanks Keeks. I hope and pray he will be found.....Bless his little tiny heart.....  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:52:00 AM  From Authorid: 11528    Hi TAC, another very disturbing story and this bothers me. How anyone can harm a child is beyong me but when a Mother harms her own child it makes me angry. Sadly this story tells me to expect the worst case scenario. How very sad. Bye for now. Enki  
Date: 7/16/2002 11:55:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Hi Enki my friend. I know what you mean.....I can't help but "assume" the worst......  
Date: 7/16/2002 12:03:00 PM  From Authorid: 53836    sadly, when I saw his picture, I felt immediate loss...at least he's in a safer place now...I hope he is able to rest in peace. I know what you mean TAC about being physically sick... while Dannarriah was missing, my stomach was in knots and my body writhed with heartache...it really sticks when you can't do a darn thing but sit there praying for the best in vain. If you have a garden, I encourage you to go relax and admire all of the hard work you put into it and let the nature around you surround you and heal your pain. With ove~SpaceCase  
Date: 7/16/2002 12:25:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Thanks so much SpaceCase. I'm glad you can understand what I'm feeling here. Funny how we can be so greatly affected by complete strangers isn't it?  
Date: 7/16/2002 12:37:00 PM  From Authorid: 22852    Shakes head in disgust. The fact the family other then the mother had to call police says a lot to me. I will keep this childs soul in my thoughts and prayers.  
Date: 7/16/2002 12:39:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Thanks Storm....There's MUCH about this case that is speaking volumes.......Truly disgusting. It makes my "violent" side want to go shake the mother into telling where he is......  
Date: 7/16/2002 1:23:00 PM  From Authorid: 16128    Hey, there TAC, sorry I haven't talked to you lately, but things have been crazy around here, but I seen this and wanted to comment since this too is making me furious. Our news has been here almost everyday, and of course when the news comes on you don't hear much about it. The mother has now refused a lie detector test, and gave no reason except her lawyer told her that if she is not a suspect, then she does not have to take a test. She has also said the brother in West Virgina was supposed to bring him back this past sunday, and sh is not here, and if they would investigate him further they might find out more about the little boy, but FBI has been there, and he has proof he was never here when she said he was. She has said he picke the boy up in a blue pickup, and the brother don't even have that blue pick up any more. I don't understand how she can not be a suspect when #1 she has told them 6 different stories that not one of them has paned out, and #2 she right away hired a lawyer, and #3 she is not working with the police very well at all. Now if I was the police that right there would be enough for me to say she is a suspect. Her other child is in protective custody, Thank god. I just hope they find him, and when they do he is ok, but the more days that go by it don't look hopeful. Talk to ya soon Love ya  
Date: 7/16/2002 1:27:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Hey SAP!! I've missed you so much! Yep, it really makes you want to "talk" to the mother doesn't it.....It's driving me crazy! And the lack of news coverage is disgusting.....Love ya,  
Date: 7/16/2002 10:03:00 PM  From Authorid: 35160    omg that poor boy. i sure hope he is ok, but with this much time going by, it doesnt look good. and the mom, whats up with her. something sounds very fishy with her. i dont get local channels on my satilite. so i havnt seen anything on this.. omg, this is so sad. 8^( huggs shay  
Date: 7/17/2002 8:46:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 600    Hey Shay, thanks for stopping by......Yes, it's horrible. I can't believe that any mother would do something to their child, but unfortunately history has taught us differently. I really don't think this will turn out good for that little guy.  
Date: 7/18/2002 9:42:00 PM  From Authorid: 22275    Thats sad! I cant beleive things like this happen just the thought of a poor child being taken away by someone really ticks me off
