There is speculation in the comments that she looks like she is expecting and looking for someone. It is weird isn't it? Anyone who wants to read the comments needs to find the video online.

You just go to the bottom right of the YT video here and click where it sends watch on YT and it will take you there.

Video from Seth, Sebastian's bio father. 2 days ago. He sure is mad.

Well, for LE I will say they are not going to share what they don't want out and can't trust him or them not to share. Second if they have something they can share with cleared family, that family does have to be cleared, I think he is but talking generally.

Here is where I am at with it. If this boy had no online contact that was found with anyone and if the father could not have been there--not accusing him I am saying he is one person Sebastian would maybe be happy to go with--is there anyone else? I mean did he have much contact with anyone off of a device? I'm guessing probably not. In that case, he did not go off with someone imo. It's extremely unlikely a stranger abducted him--no contact, he gets up at a middle of the night rando hour and ends up abducted? I think the odds of that are slim to none.

That means the likelihood is it happened at home or he is near home. If it happened at home though, it doesn't mean he is near home. He could have been dumped anywhere, taken anywhere.

And imo the parents are very suspect--mom and stepdad.

That's where I stand.

My thought is that someone associated with mum has taken him as she cannot cope but she doesn't want bio Dad to have him. If he went off on his own in the middle of a cold February night, 15 months ago, I don't think there is any likelihood he will be found alive. He would have had to survive two winters, wherever he is.

Also, if LE want him found or want tips where he may be, they need to start sharing everything.

This is a video of Sebastion having dinner the night he disappeared. His mother is looking all around the restaurant and hardly interacting with Sebastian at all. Very weird. Don't know if it has been posted before.

I am not going to spell her name out but I often don't agree with Jennifer K, former FBI. She says he is eating aggressively. WHAT? NO, he isn't. He is eating steadily but not as most teenage boys. She says he is not the wandering type yet every week we see children in bodies of water. Well no we don't, not with the older ones much. She undoubtedly worked for the FBI but sorry, her opinions make no sense sometimes.

He is going back for more food each time but he is slow and methodical about it, not pigging out.

Her behavior is downright odd. Never seen anyone act like that. If looking to meet, you'd generally know where. By reception or waiting, one gets a table and the other joins them, etc. Maybe she had some love interest she knew frequented Roadhouse and kept looking to see if there lol. Most likely imo she was ensuring she was noticed on camera OR she was meeting some stranger who said I'll be wearing a red shirt.

I too wonder if he ever was home again after the restaurant...

I don't see anything remarkable about the boy's "eating style", nor do I read anything into the mother looking around.
The Fmr FBI agent said there was "somebody looking at them, certainly not acting appropriate" and since that Court TV person had no follow-up question to that- only a "Sure" (lol)- it's left only my imagination what on earth the person was doing!

The mother is acting odd imo. The boy eating? Doesn't really show me anything. He definitely wants his food and is steadily just eating but he is not like shoveling it in, it is just what he wants and is interested in. Jen K is an idiot to describe what he is doing as shoveling as it is nothing close. I've seen teenage boys shovel and that's nothing even hinting at such. Mom is constantly looking around and seems to not eat at all. Her behavior is the odd behavior.

To me, a lot of things could look odd in slow-motion, lmao! So, the mother takes a bite and is working on it... lol.
Yeah, I'm doubting I'd agree with the former agent that somebody was looking at them and acting inappropriate.

Well i think it's weird, (not his eating style as teenage boys do generally just shovel it down) but her looking all around for so long and so do people in the comments. She is not interacting with her son or even looking at him the whole time of the video. She also looks at her phone as if she is expecting something or someone. Its interesting to see the complete absence of any interaction with her son.

There is more video the interviewee says but that it is not her place to put it out ????? I don't get that but perhaps LE directed her not to.

It's the mom's behavior that is odd. He is eating steadily and normally and since his interest is his food, I can see her not trying to interact but why is she not eating along with him, having a meal together?

Yeah, I lean towards thinking mom's reason for being there is something else. I consider TX Rdhouse a treat. It was my favorite pricier chain but ours has slipped a bit lately imo. For me though I always considered it a splurge or for something celebratory, etc. I don't recall it being any occasion? Hate to say it but was it a final treat of a dinner?
 
Tresir said:
Oh i didn't know that. Thanks.

Wow lol, I'm not used to knowing a thing here and there that others don't. Yeah I think it just says YT in bottom right, hit that and it is as simple as that. I find it very handy because if one moves off a video here on screen it stops.

I agree mom did not want dad to have him. I call that inherently evil when I don't think she wanted him nor did she maybe, I'm sorry, want him on earth the rest of her life. While the thought she put him with someone, I could possibly see it but who? And say she and her hub end up charged would they still keep their mouths shut? What other person would want to be involved in something so high profile and if they ever take Sebastian even to a doctor, they are likely to be held and Sebastian recognized? As you say it has been two winters or close to it. While I'd like to believe that as it has him alive, I don't think he is alive.

I don't know that I knew it was slow motion. If so, imo he may have more been speed eating and she would have been looking around even faster. What I watched he was simply eating steadily and her behavior is still odd or would be at any speed.

Yeah I don't agree with JK former agent in a lot of her assumptions in many a case. And imo that makes her a bit dangerous as some take her former job to mean she is infallible. I find many former types very logical and educated, I can't say I feel the same about her.
 

Sumner County teen Sebastian Rogers missing 18 months: Father says case still has no answers​

August 26, 2025 marks a year and a half since 15-year-old Sebastian Rogers disappeared from his Hendersonville home.

His biological father, Seth Rogers, told News 2 that investigators have left him in the dark. Now he is protesting for answers.

“I would like to know where Sebastian Wayne Drake Rogers is,” Seth said. “…He deserves to be at home. He deserves to be around somebody that loves him.”


“They won’t speak to me since I sent them an email telling them about 15 things they needed to check,” Seth explained. “And if you haven’t done it, then you haven’t done your job.”

He brought his frustration outside the SCSO Tuesday. With a microphone in hand, joined by friends and supporters holding signs reading “Justice for Sebastian.”

“I don’t get to take my son hunting or fishing,” Seth said. “I don’t get to play video games with him. I don’t get to play cards. I don’t get to watch movies. I get nothing while you are up there in your office.”

“We just want Sumner County to do something different to get different results,” Jennifer Tidwell, a friend of Seth’s, said.

Retiring Sumner County District Attorney Ray Whitley told News 2 he is anxious to see this case solved.

“There is more work to be done,” Whitley said. “Certainly we want to have answers at some point, and I hope and pray that we do.”

Seth said that until that happens, he will not be leaving. He plans to stand outside the SCSO every day this week and for “as long as it takes.” He’s asked the community to join him.

“Do you expect your children to be safe?” Seth asked. “Because for the last year and a half, my son isn’t.”


News 2 reached out to the SCSO for a statement.

“It’s an active investigation,” the statement reads. “We continue to follow leads and coordinate with the FBI and TBI.”

Sheriff Eric Craddock also encouraged the public to continue sharing Sebastian’s flyer.https://www.wkrn.com/news/local-new...lack-of-communication/?ipid=promo-link-block1

FBI renews call for tips in Sebastian Rogers’ disappearance

The teen with autism went missing from his mother’s Hendersonville home on Feb. 26, 2024, and hasn’t been seen since.

FBI renews call for tips in Sebastian Rogers’ disappearance​

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is renewing its call for tips regarding the disappearance of Sebastian Rogers.

The teen with autism went missing from his mother’s Hendersonville home on Feb. 26, 2024, and hasn’t been seen since. He was last seen on Stafford Court in Hendersonville.

The FBI shared an article on Thursday detailing the night before Rogers’ was reported missing. It also shared information about the search for Rogers in the weeks and days following his disappearance.

“The search consisted of about a four-and-a-half-mile radius around Sebastian’s home,” said Detective Brandon Carter from the Sumner County Sheriff’s Office. “There were roughly 2,000 searchers equipped with an app tracking their movements. The searchers could also use the app to plot things on a map that they observed while they were out searching. The total area they covered within that four-and-a-half-mile radius was equivalent to a combined 44,000 acres.”

The FBI article said the search consisted of around 2,000 searchers equipped with an app tracking their movements. They covered around 44,000 acres in their search.

Law enforcement also searched almost every home in Rogers’ neighborhood. They also collected video recordings from nearby homes.

The article also touched on two rumors in the case that have been disproven. One being the “flashlight theory,” and the other was the person in the green hoodie.

“We have followed through on every tip that has come in,” said Josh Savley, special agent in charge for the Criminal Investigation Division at the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. “Some of those tips, we continue to examine at a deeper level, but the vast majority we have cleared as either being irrelevant or ended with no results.”

The FBI is once again urging people with information on Rogers’ disappearance to come forward, saying the best way to help law enforcement in their search is to promptly share tips with SCSO, the TBI of the FBI.
