Voice Report from Gavin_Cummings

"Hello this is Gavin Cummings, reporting from downtown Hamilton Ontario Where police are in need of your help …

Billy Mason has been missing since February 22, 2006 and his family and friends want to know where he is.

 

 February 22, 2006 - 8:30 p.m. - Billy's mother Donna arrived at his apartment with groceries, Billy wasn't at home but he called her from a friends cell phone saying he was at the corner store, he was on his way back. Donna left the groceries at his apartment and headed back to her house, Billy phoned her back and asked if she could take some of his laundry with her because the machine in the building was broken - she said she would pick it up the following day, a Thursday.

February 23, 2006 - Billy did not answer his phone when called to pick up the laundry. She phoned several times and got no answer.

February 24, 2006 - A female answered the phone and told her that Billy had "gone away for the weekend" but this was out of character since Billy didn't drive and wasn't known to go away anywhere, especially not in the middle of the winter. Donna quickly became suspicous.

February 22 or 23, 2006 - 27 year old Billy Mason is kidnaped from his home at gunpoint by two unknown men

March 1, 2006 - Billy was reported missing on this day, due to the misleading information his family recieved from people in Billy's apartment regarding his whereabouts, it was believed he may have been voluntarily missing until this time.
