00:02:49
talk some true crime [Music] thank you [Music] all right Captain yesterday we went
00:03:16
through the search and rescue efforts for detrez green and when we got to the end of our search and rescue timeline
00:03:23
there we were really starting to see a lot of red flags as to detrez Green's home situation in his parents situation
00:03:31
as well all right so do you want to hear what might be the reddest of flags or maybe it's the largest of the red flags
00:03:39
which would make more sense to say go for it all right this is this could blow your mind so adjust your headphones
00:03:46
properly at no time repeat at no time did the parents of detrez green ever give or provide a photograph of this kid
00:03:57
to the Searchers to police or any Authority at all not on the day that the boy went missing which I guess okay
00:04:06
you've been hit by a a tornado it's been a natural disaster so I'll give them a break as to
00:04:13
their home was hit hard destroyed by this tornado okay so maybe you can't find a photograph of him or maybe that's
00:04:19
not the first thing on your mind but let's fast forward here it's been over four years now and they are still yet to
00:04:28
give or provide a photograph to police boy and we know that his father had a cell phone so most people these days
00:04:35
maybe you don't have an actual physical picture of your child but you would have
00:04:40
a bunch of pictures in your phone correct and that's what makes your head kind of spin here because you're going
00:04:45
all right um maybe you couldn't find a physical photo because your home was destroyed
00:04:50
but as you said digital photos somewhere right in the cloud on your cell phone did you find your phone do your family
00:04:59
members do your extended family have any photographs of your son because according to your story mom and dad he
00:05:07
was over slightly over two years old when this tornado takes him and everybody knows how parents are of small
00:05:16
children they're constantly taking photographs of these kids and so I just find this incredibly
00:05:23
bizarre again maybe they didn't find their cell phone but couldn't you reach out to other people so this tells me two
00:05:30
things Captain one you don't really want to find or further probably don't even care
00:05:37
if detrez is ever found and two you probably don't have any photos of your boy and I don't think
00:05:43
this tornado is to blame I think Kevin and adasia are to blame well it also makes you wonder was there some foul
00:05:51
play that happened to that this child and then later they used the tornado as a an excuse to cover up
00:06:00
something bad that they did to this child I mean this father seems more interested in finding
00:06:08
his cell phone than he does finding his child and that buying web search dictionary makes him a piece of [ __ ]
00:06:16
yeah so we have media who went looking for photographs of the boy as well right because they're into uncovering the
00:06:25
truth they couldn't find anything in regards to detrez Green now one photo of detrez as an infant supposedly I've
00:06:35
not seen this but I've been told this is the situation so I throw in the word supposedly appeared on Facebook but even
00:06:43
if that's true that is it the infant photo on Facebook if true that is the only known photograph digital or paper
00:06:52
to have ever existed of a sweet little boy who was alive and well according to his parents he is alive and well for
00:07:01
over two years until a terrible storm stole him from you and you the parents loved him so very much
00:07:10
that you took one single photograph of him remember what you say when what we would say when we were kids
00:07:18
bull pucky right I call Bull pucky on this whole situation involving the storm well and I'm going to say something and
00:07:27
you might think I'm crazy but it really starts making you question did this child even exist at all I don't find
00:07:34
that to be a crazy statement at all and in fact that's what a lot of other people in this situation started to
00:07:40
question just within a week or two of the boy missing so then we have gbi gbi gets called in at some point Georgia
00:07:50
Bureau of Investigation so if you're going to call in somebody to get to the bottom of something and you live in the
00:07:57
state of Georgia these are the people to call so we have gbi who says it's impossible to find a missing person if
00:08:04
you don't know what they look like gbi special agent Porter told the media quote it's very unusual maybe somebody
00:08:11
out there has a photo and they just haven't brought it Forward yet but it is unusual end quote then you have the the
00:08:19
Dougherty County Police Captain Tom Jackson who said There Are No photos that I know of of detrez green to me
00:08:26
that is a little strange that two parents would not have a photo of their child not to mention that it makes it
00:08:32
extremely difficult to locate a person when you don't know what he looks like I wouldn't say that's a little strange I'd
00:08:39
say that's wildly strange I'm with you I think that the police captain and gbi special agent that they're being overly
00:08:48
polite about the situation now law enforcement was clearly unsettled by this non-existent photo situation when
00:08:56
detrez's extended family was asked about it Detroit's great grandfather Willie Rainey told
00:09:02
w-a-l-b that his granddaughter explained it away saying there were some pictures
00:09:08
according to my granddaughter but she said her phone got lost during the storm now
00:09:14
Willie Rainey I like this guy the grandfather of adasia and he's the great grandfather of detrez I like this
00:09:25
guy he's he does not have a deja's back by giving the statement he's simply passing along to the media what she told
00:09:33
him he's not coming to her defense he's just saying look they're not talking to you guys and you keep asking people
00:09:40
what's going on this is what they have told me her father her grandfather I'm sorry has gone out of his way to say he
00:09:48
is suspicious of everything that adasia has told him he's suspicious about Kevin
00:09:53
and his actions so this is not a grandfather running to her rescue here's the thing that I want to point out to
00:10:00
adasia and caviar if you're listening the simple truth of your family and your child to me looking in from the outside
00:10:11
it's as simple as this it looks to me like neither of you cared about the treze enough to take his picture and you
00:10:19
know what Mom and Dad even Casey Anthony had pictures of Kaylee her daughter there was another
00:10:27
big red flag raising questions about Kevin and adasia that's right Captain another perhaps Kevin and adasia should
00:10:34
open up a big red flag store because they got plenty of them to sell they have red flags come out of their ass
00:10:40
right so Emergency Management Personnel were on site at the mobile home park where detrez green lived immediately
00:10:49
after the storm we covered that in yesterday's show about one hour after the storm passed in fact yet none of the
00:10:56
First Responders recall having any any interaction with detreza's parents at that time no one came out of the trailer
00:11:03
screaming about their missing kid in fact the four remaining family members left
00:11:10
they left and went to a relative's home mom and dad scooped up their two remaining children and drove off into
00:11:17
the sunset so here's a very quick and short timeline the tornado hit Dougherty County at 3 15 PM adasia called police
00:11:26
to report the treas missing at 8 10 pm on Sunday night that's why they weren't looking for the boy until that night
00:11:34
five hours elapsed before she called well you know just to play a little devil's advocate here
00:11:40
Casey Anthony never called the police until she was forced to by her family all right so so we have if you're
00:11:48
keeping score at home people one to one greens have one point and Casey Anthony has one point and if you're tied with
00:11:56
Casey Anthony you're a giant pile of [ __ ] you got a whole set of problems and you're the and you're to blame for those
00:12:02
so the gbi special agent Porter again remarked to the news saying that it was very significant this is a very
00:12:11
significant Gap in time for parents to be missing a child so that kind of stuck out to them especially because emergency
00:12:18
Personnel were on the scene in the trailer park within an hour banging on doors they're not waiting for people to
00:12:24
come to them and ask for help they're going door to door and helping people and getting them out of their homes and
00:12:30
doing whatever they can to assist and help these people well let's see what these pos's have to say for themselves
00:12:39
okay Captain so we have Cheryl bird she's a spokeswoman for the County's Emergency Management agency she says
00:12:47
that adasia told the agency that she last saw the Tres walking toward the back door of that mobile home
00:12:54
then the storm hit the tree fell through the roof and it was chaos the power went
00:12:59
out the family had to leave and go to a relative's home which they did that evening and then they reported to trez
00:13:06
missing at that point so it seems to me based off of this statement what adasia seems to be implying is that they had to
00:13:14
leave and go to a relatives to use the phone to call police well and that makes sense
00:13:19
with the story though if if the father could not find his cell phone it does make sense but once you start to line
00:13:27
these things up you go all right are they stalling or did they get out of that area on purpose I mean if it takes
00:13:35
you four to five hours to drive somewhere to make that emergency phone call there's a phone somewhere between you
00:13:43
and that in the time that it takes to travel that distance right I don't know how far away the relative's home was I
00:13:49
tried to find that because I wanted to go okay well if they would have left at this time they could have been there
00:13:55
possibly for two hours before they made the phone call I couldn't figure that out but then we also have to keep in
00:14:00
mind we have the neighbor who's out helping people pulling people out of the debris he pulls out their daughter says
00:14:08
do you need anything else and the father tells them no we're all good here well your son is still missing maybe Kevin
00:14:15
didn't know that he was missing at that time I don't believe it I actually don't
00:14:19
think that that was the last time that these parents saw their son then we have emergency crews we have a neighbor out
00:14:26
helping right after the storm emergency crews within the hour at the mobile home
00:14:32
park it all seems to me like these people were trying to get out of Dodge they wanted to get away from a situation
00:14:40
they wanted to report him missing that's obvious because they did in fact do that
00:14:44
five hours later they wanted everybody to know that the kid was missing and it the storm was to
00:14:50
blame but they didn't want to be there and have to answer questions face to face they didn't want to have to do an
00:14:56
interview face to face right and that seems to me obviously you can't pre-plan these
00:15:03
things it seems to me like that was at some point that it became their plan so let's talk
00:15:10
about the 9-1-1 call calling in to report him essay but like you said the 911 call came in five hours
00:15:16
later five hours after the storm hit right after the tornado passed through so the Albany Herald interviewed the 911
00:15:26
operator again this is because the parents are just not making themselves accessible to the media so you go to you
00:15:32
take the next step you have to interview the operator who took the call instead of a Deja who placed the call that night
00:15:40
the 911 Communications manager this is Sheila Sims said that the call came from a Deja Rainey and it was one of the most
00:15:48
unusual missing persons calls in all of her time working as a dispatcher she says that she at that time she had been
00:15:56
there for 18 years and she went on to describe how calmly adasia sounded when she called 9-1-1
00:16:04
adding quote in my experience with a child that age the parents are usually hysterical and screaming that we are not
00:16:12
doing enough and we just didn't get that I believe the first call came in shortly
00:16:18
after 8 PM these are again her words it may have been 801 or 8 2 pm adasia was not at the address where this took place
00:16:26
where her story happened she said that she had to get to a phone to call us and that was hours later and
00:16:33
quote in the call adasia said to Shelley I was trying to call 9-1-1 to report my
00:16:39
son missing I don't know where he is the wind must have toted him off or something
00:16:45
were her words now Shelley went on to ask adasia if she had searched the trailer park for her son and a Deja
00:16:53
responded yeah I did I didn't walk all over I just tried to hurry up and seek shelter they told us to come to the
00:17:01
front I'm guessing this is the front of the the mobile home park and I checked everywhere in our area and I couldn't
00:17:08
see him so according to the parents of detrez After the Storm they looked around didn't see him and then left to
00:17:14
go call 9-1-1 from a family member's home five hours later they never mentioned him to emergency crews who
00:17:22
were there to help on site to help as we said Captain gbi was called in and we have a statement from Chief Battle of
00:17:33
the Dougherty County Police Department announcing that they requested that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation become
00:17:40
involved she said basically we've searched for this child along with experts in search
00:17:49
and rescue for five days it wasn't until that Friday on at 2 30 pm on January 27th that the
00:17:57
search was called off and she announced to the public hey this is a police investigation and we've brought
00:18:06
in gbi to assist us in this case because you can see the complexities of this case
00:18:13
already what also makes you wonder the maturity level of the parents the emotional maturity level of the parents
00:18:22
and also just is is there some mental health issues is there maybe even some disabilities there
00:18:34
because they're they're acting so strange compared to how you think somebody else
00:18:39
would act or how you would compare how you would act yourself agreed you do wonder that but to me
00:18:47
they're acting guilty they're acting guilty of something that they're just not telling us
00:18:51
um their their behavior is highly suspicious and it almost seems to me like they are
00:18:59
doing their best to cover something up give a story stick to it and then be unavailable and uncooperative with
00:19:08
investigators media and so on so that they don't have to be held to task right they don't have to
00:19:16
have their feet held to the Flames to answer the tough questions and further they are not even assisting in
00:19:25
the search for this little boy let's say that a storm took him and he was found alive and well and maybe it took a lot
00:19:33
longer than anybody expected two weeks three weeks a month whatever but let's say and pretend that they found the Tres
00:19:40
green alive and well and they returned him at some point one I'd have to wonder if they would
00:19:46
return him knowing the parents actions or lack of action to help find him but then could you imagine you go to see
00:19:53
your great grandfather or your great aunt as a young adult and maybe they can't keep quiet anymore and they say
00:20:02
you know you were missing all that time and we were so glad and so blessed to find you
00:20:07
but you know I have to tell you your mom and dad didn't help in the search for you at
00:20:13
all yeah that's pretty awful so of course Captain for all of the reasons we have previously discussed gbi officials
00:20:20
were suspicious to say the least that the parents were not being entirely forthcoming about what happened to their
00:20:26
son the two largest red flags their biggest red flags are just what we pointed out before
00:20:32
one there's no photo of him the GB I could find and two let's not forget that prior to
00:20:39
that tornado no one had seen him recently and were not you know we're not talking about
00:20:45
hours or days we mean months no one has seen detrez Green in months leading up to this tornado and then in regards to
00:20:54
gbi in their investigation on January 31st so they are only on the case for about
00:21:02
two days at this point gbi conducted a dig at a house located at 1006 Pine knot Road in Ashburn
00:21:11
it turns out this is the former home of Kevin and adasia the gbi spent over two hours at the home
00:21:20
digging in at least two locations now they said of the search in the end there's nothing that they can release at
00:21:27
the time that they were following up on evidence from the case they did say hey like the media caught wind of this oh
00:21:34
you're you're searching for detrez green but you're not searching for him in the
00:21:38
area that he was supposedly living when he went missing according to Mom and Dad
00:21:42
you're now looking for him at a prior residence and they were not quiet about this they
00:21:49
didn't go out of their way to making an announcement but when asked they said yes we're searching a previous residence
00:21:55
of of Kevin and adasia we know that at one time or it's believed at one time detrez
00:22:01
green lived here with them and we're letting the evidence take us where it will take us in this case and it is 100
00:22:08
our search of that area was 100 due to the ongoing investigation of the Tres green and his whereabouts
00:22:18
[Music] [Applause] [Music] thank you [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
00:22:51
all right we're back thanks for joining us thanks for listening thanks for telling a friend make sure you subscribe
00:22:58
and give us five stars cheers to you Colonel what a frustrating case this is so far cheers to you
00:23:05
Captain cheers to everybody out there that's ever given us five stars now gbi this is their investigation man and
00:23:15
something you had asked earlier you said hey I'm going to throw the statement out
00:23:18
there I'm starting to wonder if this kid ever existed at all am I crazy and I said no you're not because we have a few
00:23:25
days in or a couple weeks in I'm sorry where gbi's saying not only have we not seen a photograph of this kid not only
00:23:33
can we not find anybody that's ever seen him other than the the two parents in this you know one Aunt of hers right and
00:23:40
I guess the brother that's backing up green Kevin's brother so we got four people that claims to have seen the kid
00:23:48
at some point in their in his two years of existence they're also saying at this
00:23:53
point we can't find a birth certificate for detrez so it is not crazy to think surprise surprise
00:24:00
that he may not have ever existed so it sounds to me gbi is being very thorough here in their investigation they're
00:24:09
they're covering all their bases here and looking into any of these possibilities but also from a citizen
00:24:15
standpoint I think the masses it's easier for you and I and for everybody out there to go you know what
00:24:25
okay maybe these people didn't do something horrible to this kid maybe maybe they didn't harm their own child
00:24:31
maybe he just never existed and they made up the existence of this boy to collect
00:24:38
welfare or gain assistance of some sort that it was more of a more of a fraudulent thing rather than well what
00:24:45
would be a homicide negligent or otherwise we have the three-year-old daughter and then we have an infant
00:24:51
and so we're saying that detrez was too so that puts you know him and his older sibling
00:25:00
pretty close together an age well and we have this interesting statement from the
00:25:06
police department too that says and this is a quote from the news says I understand that there have been
00:25:14
people that adasia has contacted that have actually seen this child but not within the last couple of months or
00:25:22
maybe a year or so so police can't find anybody that has seen the kid in a couple of months but also adding in
00:25:31
their statement maybe up to a year or so right but again let's just say let's just say hypothetically I have this
00:25:38
child child is born at the age of two or three I then make up that they have a sibling
00:25:45
I could probably change the dress of that baby and from a distance or through pictures
00:25:53
or or not much interaction between the child and other individuals convince you that
00:26:01
I have two children you've just never seen both of them at the same time it has more and more time passed captain
00:26:08
and there was no sign of detrez as his parents stop cooperating that's what the papers say I I question if they ever
00:26:16
cooperated to begin with we do know that they cut off Communications with investigators if they ever really
00:26:22
communicated with them to begin with law enforcement spoke in terms that plainly conveyed their suspicions of the
00:26:28
parents at some point when talking about this case with the media in November of
00:26:33
2017 with detrez gone 11 months the police captain said that the case is frustrating to police because until
00:26:42
someone speaks up the truth about what happened to detrez will never be proven and I think it's interesting
00:26:50
you know we've talked about this in regards to Delphi and other cases uh BTK the list goes on and on and on police
00:26:59
work within the confines that they have to but they but they are very aware most
00:27:06
times the better agencies are anyway they are very aware of the words that they choose to use when giving
00:27:13
statements to the media and the public and here the captain chooses to use the word proven
00:27:21
the truth about what happened to detrez Green will never be proven until somebody speaks up and tells us the
00:27:27
truth right interesting he used chose to use the word proven instead of known what that tells us is that investigators
00:27:37
have a good idea possibly even know what happened to detrez they just don't have
00:27:43
enough for an arrest I agree possibly you know and they know who's responsible too they just don't know where to take
00:27:51
this case because there's there's so much lacking there's so many so much information that's
00:27:57
lacking for them to to work with to build a case I I tend to try to think of these cases I find them to be more
00:28:05
interesting if I if I kind of focus on what would I be doing as law enforcement and if the parents came forward and said
00:28:14
look to trez was was never a real kid who made him up for fraudulent reasons I don't know if you could initially
00:28:25
believe them you would need to have proof of this right because and you know that because if if they now come clean
00:28:32
and say look he never existed well you all been lying to everybody for two years so how can we believe anything
00:28:40
you say you're you're exactly right there you have to to confirm that and find a way to confirm that but let's
00:28:47
bring back in Lisa remember this is adasia's Aunt and she's been very vocal in this case as well as adasia's great
00:28:55
or adasia's grandfather and I commend and applaud her family for going out of their way to try to clear a lot of this
00:29:04
up and try to provide some of the truth and to publicly you know I understand you don't want to air your dirty laundry
00:29:11
right but after months and months and months and you're seeing parents act suspiciously the whole time
00:29:21
I applaud them for bringing their suspicions to the media and voicing their concerns about these parents to
00:29:27
the media so Lisa her aunt says and this is pretty revealing and very damning information
00:29:35
she worked in the Turner County 9-1-1 Center in Ashburn this is the same town where her niece lived before moving to
00:29:45
the mobile home park Lisa says look we were too we we were very close at one time me and adasia she says that when
00:29:53
she worked at the 9-1-1 call center she heard a lot of calls involving Kevin green now
00:30:01
this started before adasia and Kevin were even in a relationship together she was hearing
00:30:09
911 calls regarding this Kevin green before they're in a relationship together she says that at the time so this would
00:30:17
have been 2010 Kevin was 22 years old he was a trucker his wife at the time would
00:30:24
call 9-1-1 repeatedly charging that Kevin was beating her in front of their small children now no charges were ever
00:30:32
filed and the two eventually separated but stayed married for a while So Lisa was horrified when in 2012 her beloved
00:30:44
niece adasia introduced her new boyfriend to the family Kevin green adasia was still in high school at
00:30:52
Turner County High School in the ROTC program at this time caviar was more than seven years her senior Lisa says
00:31:01
that she warned adasia about Kevin and everyone in her family did but the two announced their engagement in late 2012
00:31:09
as adasia was entering her senior year in high school Kevin was still married to his first wife at the time this this
00:31:17
always drives me nuts this is one of those things that makes me makes me want to just go outside open up the car door
00:31:24
insert my head and just slam it right in there because I can help you with that thank you I will never understand for
00:31:30
the life of me when people when smart people I don't know if a deja's smart maybe she's not but I've witnessed it
00:31:37
seems to be in my lifetime where you have someone for whatever reason and it's got to be complete Bizarro
00:31:45
reasons will believe something that a complete stranger tells them rather than someone that they've known for years
00:31:52
maybe decades somebody that they know has had their back on multiple occasions let's believe total
00:31:59
total stranger person but not believe the person that has helped me out countless times a person
00:32:05
that I know that hey I might not always like them but uh I know that they got my
00:32:10
back and you know where where do you where do you put the weight in into people's statements and beliefs it just
00:32:19
I mean how could you not believe your aunt who's telling you look this guy his wife
00:32:24
was calling in repeatedly that he was beating her up all the time and now he's your boyfriend I'm just I'm warning you
00:32:30
I'm trying to tell you get away from him right and Deja I'm in love I'm gonna stay with this guy
00:32:38
so the couple move in together and their residents the first residents that they
00:32:43
live in is described as a trailer with garbage bags covering the windows I have nothing about against living in a
00:32:49
trailer I've considered it multiple times in my lifetime and I've seen some pretty nice ones out there too and some
00:32:55
of the Parks look inviting most of the parks not for me I see any kind of dwelling with garbage bags covering the
00:33:01
windows I've got concerns hey I got a great place I can rent to you Captain yeah the HOA fees are
00:33:11
plastic bags so on September 8 2013 adasia well she's going to get to unfortunately experience some of
00:33:20
these things first hand it sounds like because she calls 9-1-1 says that she was cooking
00:33:27
dinner when Kevin came into their trailer and started accusing her of something with a friend that she had on
00:33:34
Facebook they argued for a while and he punched her in the head now this is from
00:33:39
the police report so adasia told deputies I balled up in the corner floor hollering then he hit
00:33:46
me he hit my head against the wooden pole constantly non-stop then he picked me up by the neck choking me with my
00:33:55
feet dangling that was her words in the police report that's before the Tres goes missing so Kevin was arrested and
00:34:04
charged with battery in that situation now he told officers look she made it all up she inflicted all these injuries
00:34:10
herself just to get me in trouble yes we were arguing but this is the result she
00:34:16
she set me up you know what I hoped for I I hope for that one he existed and that somebody else took him away
00:34:26
that saw that this was not a positive situation and took him away or they they sold him
00:34:34
to somebody that wanted to have a child and treat a child the way the child should be treated yeah and that maybe
00:34:41
that they've never come forward because one the parents have no proof if it's their child or not
00:34:49
but they didn't ever come forward because they didn't want there to be any other chance that they could have to
00:34:56
give up their son and go back to these two yahoos well and who knows because these things are really all over the
00:35:04
shop aren't they we've seen cases where it's obvious that the child was abducted
00:35:09
that what Mom and Dad are saying is in fact the truth then we've had some other questionable cases like Dior Coons where
00:35:16
you wonder and there's been a lot of speculation did they sell the boy to somebody that wanted a son for whatever
00:35:23
reasons and then you have a case like the Juan Sims where I feel I feel like we have a
00:35:31
similar situation to Dewan Sims case here where something happened to Dewan Sims he's a little kid and then mom goes
00:35:39
to the shopping mall and we covered that case I don't know the episode number but she goes to the shopping mall and
00:35:46
says hey uh somebody abducted him from the the mall and they start reviewing the cameras and they're like yeah we see
00:35:52
you we don't ever see you with your son we don't think he was ever in the shopping mall so what it appears
00:35:57
happened in The Sims case is something happened to this boy and then she has to concoct the story
00:36:03
and comes up with this story later to explain away why he is not anywhere to be found anymore the Dewan Sims episode
00:36:11
is episode 160 and you can find all of our episodes from episode 1 to the episode now
00:36:18
they're available everywhere Apple podcast Stitcher Spotify wherever you listen to podcast so grease up your ear
00:36:27
balls because there's plenty to listen to what's different about this case as opposed to those other cases
00:36:33
is I don't even know if this child ever existed well right and I I see you kind of circling around that so I wanted to
00:36:42
make sure that I got to this portion of it and this is kind of why I brought up this uh police report incident where
00:36:48
adasia says it Kevin beat her up so I guess they make up at some point after this because he was in fact
00:36:56
charged with battery during that situation or because of that situation but a few weeks later she gives birth to
00:37:03
Kevin's son and this would be detrez's older brother so the oldest of the three small
00:37:10
children so the family moved into the pine knot Roadhouse that we discussed and they lived there for a year maybe a
00:37:17
couple years Lisa her aunt that tried to warn adasia about Kevin says look I kind of used my
00:37:25
position as a dispatch officer to conveniently send officers there once in a while for
00:37:32
welfare checks because she was so worried about what would happen to her niece and possibly that child to trez's
00:37:40
older brother adasia's family has told the media we knew where they lived we were never
00:37:45
allowed in the house we at never any time ever went into their home or their homes as it were well again this is an
00:37:54
abusive situation we know that and one of the things that these abusive [ __ ] bag men like to do is they won they'll
00:38:03
separate their victim the the person that they're abusing from their family and their friends and they'll control
00:38:09
those situations so you know for all we know he's controlling the situation where he doesn't want any of them ever
00:38:15
going into the house right and then this leads us to a notable incident that followed the birth of detrez green okay
00:38:24
so the last incident was before his older brother was born this would have been shortly after so the Tres was born
00:38:31
on October 28 2014. on his fifth or sixth day at home adasia's father Grady Rainey got a call from his
00:38:43
daughter something's going on so he in turn calls the police and what happened then was the Turner County dispatch
00:38:51
received a 9-1-1 call regarding adasia and Kevin and it was basically her father saying
00:39:00
my daughter and her boyfriend are fighting that's why I'm calling you and asked if you do you know if there are
00:39:05
any weapons involved and he says I know he's got a gun I don't know if there's any weapons involved in this incident
00:39:12
but I know that he owns a gun on the call he tells the dispatcher that his daughter
00:39:18
adasia said quote if my baby daddy don't quit beating me I'm going to shoot him the father Asia's father goes on to tell
00:39:28
the operator that there was a one-year-old toddler and a newborn in the home so Detroit's green would be the
00:39:34
newborn that was in the home now we have police that go to to that residence to their residence to see what's going on
00:39:41
they get no answer but due to the call and due to a gun being referenced multiple times during the call
00:39:49
they call in the SWAT team well it it's like a standoff man a two-hour standoff before Kevin Greene
00:39:57
comes out of the house he's immediately arrested um adasia who was 19 at the time tells
00:40:03
police it was all just a misunderstanding she stuck to her story so we we do have you know law
00:40:10
enforcement on record saying this is one of the hardest things to do you get a domestic violence victim it's difficult
00:40:18
to get them to speak out often and in this situation at least no charges were filed but what we do have here
00:40:27
is that we know based off of this incident that this was confirmed by child services
00:40:36
that Detroit's green existed and he was alive and at that home and he's about six days old at this time
00:40:45
and speaking of adasia's family let's stick with Lisa here and some of her information that she's able to provide
00:40:53
to us in regards to detrez's case she says that in the Atlanta Journal Constitution
00:41:03
these are her exact words I'll just read her exact words so we don't have to try
00:41:06
to decipher what they mean quote she spoke of a toxic atmosphere in her niece's home adasia is who's she talking
00:41:14
she's talking about with Kevin accused multiple times of beating her ten months later Lisa said she she's heard no
00:41:23
plausible explanations about what happened that night tetrez is still missing haunting Lisa and people around
00:41:30
Albany who want answers to one of the most discussed and speculated about child disappear disappearances in the
00:41:37
area's recent memory as she waits Lisa tries to make sense of a conversation she said she had with the
00:41:45
trez's parents right after the tornado when they called her and her words are quote nobody said anything about a kid
00:41:53
was missing they said they were fine end quote according to Lisa adasia's aunt she
00:42:02
speaks with him right after the tornado nothing's wrong we're fine obviously Kevin the the father is a horrible
00:42:11
individual but you know he has a pretty long list of offenses yeah so we do have some of that
00:42:19
information here Captain if you want to go through it yeah okay so what I have in my notes is that from 2010 to 2014
00:42:27
records show he was arrested six times in Turner County at least three times related to domestic disputes
00:42:34
his charges included disorderly conduct battery for Family Violence and a misdemeanor simple battery charge now
00:42:42
more than two years after the tornado 2019 Dougherty County Police responded to a family violence call involving the
00:42:51
parents the police report said that adasia told the officers she and her then husband Kevin got in a fight she
00:43:00
also said he quote locks her in their residence end quote the report said the officer couldn't find green couldn't
00:43:09
find Kevin green that night and there was no record of him being charged so we've seen this in other cases too they
00:43:17
respond to a domestic violence case you know if there's not a lot of proof of what the complaint is and you can't find
00:43:23
the person that the complaint is going to be filed against or she talks herself out of filing the
00:43:30
complaint sometimes there's no charges that that go anywhere in these situations now there were some
00:43:37
developments I guess in this case last year in 2020 the gbi released a press release asking for the Public's
00:43:44
assistance in the missing child investigation here's the full release police are seeking The public's
00:43:51
assistance in a nearly four-year-old missing child's investigation on January 27 2017 the Doherty County Police
00:44:00
Department requested the gbi to assist in The Disappearance of two-year-old detrez green on January 22nd 2017 at
00:44:09
approximately 3 P.M a tornado struck the Piney Woods trailer park in Doherty County where the Green family resided at
00:44:18
the time at approximately 8 10 pm police received a call about a missing child later
00:44:24
identified as detrez and immediately began his search the child's parents reported that a tornado hit their home
00:44:31
and a tree crashed through the trailer law enforcement and search Crews spent days searching for detrez a nearby Pond
00:44:40
was drained in search provided no results throughout the course of this investigation no picture of detrez has
00:44:47
been provided to police agents and investigators worked together on numerous investigative Acts they
00:44:54
included conducting interviews and searched the parents former home in Turner County anyone with information
00:44:59
related to The Disappearance of detrez is urged to call the Dougherty County Police Department
00:45:06
the gbi regional office or Crime Stoppers and I'll give the crime stopper number here and I'll give the gbi's
00:45:14
number before we wrap up Crime Stoppers if you want to leave an anonymous anonymous tip or information call
00:45:21
229-436 tips tip s now the Tres green little detress would have turned six years old on October 28
00:45:32
2020. he should be turning seven this month Captain but unfortunately he was born into a bad situation born into a
00:45:41
home with a violent man and parents who just didn't care for him or his well-being or
00:45:47
hell love him enough to take pictures of the child in conclusion sadly detreza's
00:45:52
extended relatives care about the little boy they never met more than his own parents did Willie Rainey told
00:46:00
w-a-l-b that me and my wife will talk and we often wonder still today what happened with our grandbaby Willie does
00:46:08
not believe the story being told by adasia and Kevin about what happened to detrez he also has reconciled himself to
00:46:16
the fact that detrez is no longer alive while he is relieved that Kevin and adasia's other two kids remain in foster
00:46:24
care he said that his experience working in law enforcement taught him and told him that Kevin Greene's arrest record
00:46:32
should have led to the child or and all children being taken away from their parents earlier Willie thinks that a
00:46:41
Deja may be too scared to come forward with what really happened to detrez and says I just hope my granddaughter
00:46:49
finds it in her heart to go tell somebody what happened he said he would like to see detrez properly buried in
00:46:55
the family plot the news several outlets try to contact the deja and Kevin in 2019 could not locate them
00:47:05
so they've they weren't Cooperative to begin with weren't giving statements to begin with and these years later they
00:47:11
seem to warn you right nothing to do with with the situation it's a such a sad sad
00:47:19
world because there's so many people that try really hard and have to take you know certain medications and and
00:47:27
different shots and hormones and stuff just to have a child and then other people
00:47:33
can have children so easily and yet they care so little and there are things right there's all this stuff that we've
00:47:42
put into place you know in most situations in Most states and most cities you can give up your child
00:47:50
you you can drop them off somewhere you can I mean I I know that sounds horrible to say but we've put these
00:47:57
things into place so that no harm comes to these kids that are not wanted and not taken care of yeah but
00:48:05
but what's worse though right if somebody said look I did I I try to take care of this kid and I just can't do it
00:48:12
I can't afford the kid I I maybe don't even care much about the kid let me give the kid over to the state I would
00:48:20
applaud that person so much more than these giant piles of [ __ ] that you don't
00:48:25
even look for your child and but you're looking for your phone of course phone means more to you than
00:48:32
your child had they dropped the Tres off somewhere or asked family to take him or
00:48:37
the state to take him or whatever he would have had a Fighting Chance right he would have had a shot at a life and
00:48:45
under their roof he did not and this is the result the Georgia Bureau of Investigation says that the reason
00:48:52
detrez is not listed with the national Center for missing and exploited children is because they do not have any
00:48:59
photograph of him to submit to the database and you and I captain spoke with Megan Good who maintains and
00:49:06
operates the Charlie project website and database and she told us the same thing
00:49:10
that she needs a photo of this missing person to include him in the database and God bless her and the good work that
00:49:18
she's doing and we presented this name to trez green out of left field you know pulled a name out of thin air when we
00:49:25
were talking with her in person at crimecon and immediately she says I mean the the
00:49:32
knowledge that she has of missing people is just amazing she says immediately she
00:49:38
goes is that the toddler that was missing and there's no photograph of him and the parents claim that a storm took
00:49:44
him and I'm like yes you you nailed it we picked the name at random and you nailed it
00:49:49
so bless her in the work that she's doing check out the Charlie project website now there is no doubt right no
00:49:56
doubt something happened to this little boy but it didn't happen that day during
00:50:02
a tornado echoing the statements of search and rescue experts and law enforcement there is just no way that
00:50:09
anyone can believe in my mind that a storm hit and it blew the treze off of the face of the map he would have been
00:50:17
located just like the many others were alive or otherwise so for everybody out there if you have any
00:50:27
information at all even a suspicion or a hint at something odd maybe you saw something maybe you saw this family out
00:50:34
somewhere when there were still five members of this family please please please report it to somebody because as
00:50:43
much as authorities need to find the remains of this little boy the victim of he's the victim of his despicable
00:50:50
parents in the meantime what they need to develop is a timeline a timeline of detrez's life no matter how short it was
00:51:00
because right now all we have and all we know is that something sometime between
00:51:07
the ages of six days old and two years in a couple of months old something happened to this little boy
00:51:14
and his parents Kevin and adasia covered it up and when this tornado hit they found the excuse they were looking for
00:51:23
and waiting for and they simply wiped their hands clean of detrez please someone contact the Georgia Bureau of
00:51:32
Investigation with whatever information you may have that's the gbi's regional office in Sylvester
00:51:40
