From The Charley Project:
Authorities with the Alabama Department of Human Resources (DHR) began investigating Jason's parents, Natasha Wright and Jason Sims Sr., for child neglect in Birmingham, Alabama in October 2014. They were aware of two children living in the home at the time, a 10-year-old and a 12-year-old. They didn't know about Jason or his 9-year-old sibling. Neither of them had ever been enrolled in school or been to a doctor recently. Based on conditions at the home, police issued arrest warrants for Wright and Jason Sr. charging them with aiding the dependency of minors. They tried to arrest the couple in October, but the family had moved from their home in the 100 block of 59th Street.
Photographs of Wright and Jason Sr. are posted below this case summary. On January 23, 2015, Wright was found unconscious at the 59th Street residence and taken to the hospital. Three days later, their other children were found with relatives in Mulga, Alabama and placed in DHR custody. Wright briefly regained consciousness and asked asked authorities about Jason. She said she had last seen him at their home, but was unable to say when. It was only then that authorities learned of Jason's existence. A search of the 59th Street home turned up no sign of him, and Jason Sr. has refused to provide any information as to his whereabouts.
The circumstances of Jason's disappearance are unclear. Authorities can find no medical records and no recent pictures of the child; there is very little evidence for his existence.

Thoughts? This is a sad but admittedly bizarre case. Keep in mind that photo of Jason is an age-progression of what he may have looked like in 2015. He likely disappeared years earlier and all there is is a grainy undated photo of him at a younger age.
