Description

When 71-year-old Thomas Perez Senior failed to return home after a short walk to his mailbox in Fontana, California, his son Tom wasn’t overly concerned. He suspected his father had just gone to visit friends or family and would return home of his own accord. But when police arrived at the Perez home to complete a missing person’s report, they came to suspect something else entirely.

I don't think Tom was the one whose "mental challenges" caused this bizarrely unjust situation. If Tom were an actual criminal, of the worst kind, he would have been given the kid glove treatment. But this is how innocent people are treated.
