Missing boy is identified as parents come under suspicion Houston Chronicle Copyright 2012 Houston Chronicle. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed. Updated 04:47 p.m., Wednesday, March 21, 2012 A Houston couple whose infant disappeared in 2004 learned Wednesday that an 8-year-old living in east Texas is their child, but the revelation was clouded by allegations the couple may have given away the boy along with their other four children. [...] case workers and a county psychologist wanted to discuss the quality of his birth parents' care and how the child will react to learning he has an entire family he has never met. Estella Olguin, a spokeswoman with Child Protective Services, confirmed that the agency also is looking in to allegations that the couple "gave away" their children, but declined to discuss the facts until they come out in court. "Numerous family members and neighbors reported that she has given her children away," according to an affidavit explaining why the kidnapping case was closed April 6, 2006.
