Tips on missing Skelton brothers still come in

Posted: Updated:

Nearly 2 years into the investigation and tips on the whereabouts of Tanner, Alexander, and Andrew Skelton are still coming in.  The most recent reports is that their father gave them to an Amish community.

Tanya Zuvers, the boys' mother says, "who knows what kind of story he could have game, look at the stories that he's told to all of us since that happened."

Zuvers is talking about the boys' father, John Skelton.  Currently, he's locked up, serving 10-15 years for unlawful imprisonment.  The three boys were last seen at his house on Thanksgiving in 2010.

"The system is taking care of him so I try not to let myself go there," Zuvers says.

Morenci police say they've received more than 1000 similar tips, but all have come up empty.  Now, Zuvers and police are in the process of getting age progression pictures to keep the boys in the spotlight.

"If you think, even 1% think it could be them, call 911.  It's that simple, " she said.

While the search continues, Zuvers tries to get used to life without her sons.  She says she still holds onto hope, that one day, they'll be home again.

To mark the 2 year anniversary, Zuvers and her family have planned a community gathering.  It's set for Sunday November 25th, at 3:00 p.m., at Wakefield Park.

If you have any information about the boys call Morenci Police 517-458-7104.
