In October of 2021, a five year old boy was reported missing in Merrimack, New Hampshire after he hadn't been seen for over a month. Any missing child is an emergency. Or should be. Except his mother, whose custody he had been in for just over a year, wasn't who reported him missing.

Why was Elijah Lewis even living with his mother at the time?
And why did she want him gone? This is a difficult story about violence against a child.
