“Dear Everybody, I'm sorry for everything. I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye, Jaliek.” This is the letter that Stephen Kerr said his 12-year-old adopted son left in his empty bedroom at his grandparents' home on November 1, 2007, right before he went missing. By all accounts, Jaliek was an emotionally troubled boy, and there was a great deal of friction within his family. Is this a note written by a child right before he decided to run away? Or, is there more to this letter and Jaliek's home life than it appears? Jaliek Rainwalker has been missing from Greenwich, New York, for nearly 17 years. In the 12 years leading up to his disappearance, multiple people failed this child. Now, the question is, where is Jaliek Rainwalker, and who is responsible for his disappearance?Anyone with information regarding Jaliek Rainwalker's disappearance is urged to call the Greenwich Village Police Department at 518-692-9332.Buy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeFor a full list of our sources, please visit our blogBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/and-then-they-were-gone--5360779/support.

Greenwich, New York: Jaliek was just 12 years old when he vanished in November 2002. His adopted father, Steven Kerr, said he woke up and Jaliek wasn't there. Searches turned up no signs of Jaliek. In 2008, a very (very) odd letter was sent anonymously to local news stations in upstate New York, claiming Jaliek is alive and well. Jaliek's story is important for so many reasons. First and foremost, a young boy went missing. Second, this case shines a light on the foster care system. Did the system fail Jaliek? ********************************************** Thank you for supporting our mission. You can find the 'Where are they?' Podcast on all major podcast platforms.

On 2nd November 2007, 12 year old Jaliek Rainwalker was reported as missing by his adoptive father, who said he must have runaway during the night. However in 2012 Jaliek's case was reclassified as a presumed homicide, and much suspicion has been cast on those closest to him.
There have been no updates in the investigation of Jaliek Rainwalker's disappearance since late June 2022, when a tip launched a search near some ballfields in Troy, New York — more than 30 miles south of the upstate New York town where Jaliek was last seen. After 15 years, law enforcement insists the boy's presumed homicide is still an active case. But they've never named a suspect, and they're unwilling to reveal any more details. If a suspect is ever named, the fact that Jaliek's body has never been found creates a difficult situation for prosecutors. Based on what they've said publicly, if they were to pursue a case against someone involved in Jaliek's disappearance, it would be what's known as a “no-body” or bodiless prosecution. But how do you prove murder without the most direct evidence of murder — aka a body? In this bonus episode of “Rainwalker: The Lost Boy,” we'll look back at how we put this podcast together, and we'll talk to an expert in bodiless prosecution. Learn more about your ad choices.

Jaliek Rainwalker was born to a mother addicted to cocaine. Naturally, he was placed into foster care until he was later adopted by the McDonald-Kerr Family. It didn't take long for the family to decide that Jaliek's behavior was "unmanageable." They even asked to reverse the adoption. The state informed Jaliek's adoptive parents that this was no longer an option. Shortly after this conversation, Jaliek came up missing. Jaliek's biological family, adoptive grandparents, former foster care families and the entire Greenwich community want to find him... well everybody, it seems, except... his adoptive parents.

Jaliek Rainwalker was born a victim of abuse. At birth he was addicted to alcohol and cocaine and was given up for adoption and two days old.

Jaliek went through six different foster families before finally, at seven years of age, being placed with the family that would adopt him. Five years later on November 2, 2007, Jaliek's adopted father Stephen Kerr would awake to find Jaliek missing. He has never been found.

Jaliek Rainwalker had trouble fitting into families due to some behavioral issues and sadly he ended up bouncing around foster homes most of his young life. When he ended up with new adoptive parents, Joceyln McDonald and Stephen Kerr, you'd think this was his forever home until one day, Jaliek was missing. Vanished into thin air.

This episode contains information of crimes involving children. Listener discretion is advised. *While Recording this episode I was so wrapped up in the mixing I did not realise that the airing of the podcast would coincide with 13 years to the day since Jaliek went missing until it was already mixed and ready, this is why it will be even more imperative to please share this episode as far and wide as you can* On the night of the 1st of November 2007, Jaliek Rainwalker was last seen by his adoptive father. When Stephen Kerr woke up the next morning, Jaliek was nowhere to be seen. With his bed made up to apparently look like he was sleeping, Stephen realised his son was gone and would report Jaliek missing to the police. When Police arrive, Stephen informs them that a duffle bag, a stuffed animal that belonged to his adopted son and some clothes were missing, and most harrowing of all; a note is found seemingly written by the twelve year old stating he was leaving. But what looks from the onset as a runaway child, soon spirals down a much sinister path. Both family and loved ones of Jaliek insist he had not run away, and the investigation soon turns into a suspected murder with none other than his adopted parents in the spotlight. In this episode, we uncover the suspicious vanishing of 12 year old Jaliek Rainwalker, a young boy who from his very birth had trial after trial levelled at him and uncover the information from the day he was reported missing, through to the avenues of investigation that led police to looking closer to home in the disappearance.

Twelve year old Jaliek Rainwalker disappears after spending time in respite care. His adoptive father is a person of interest in this case, but Jaliek has never been found. Soures: The Charley Project The Post-Star "Behind the scenes Jaliek investigation quietly continues" by Don Lehman 8/24/2019 The Times Union "Jaliek Rainwalker's homicide case is cold 10 years after his disappearance" by Emily Masters 10/31/2017 Web MD & Mayo Clinic- Reactive Attachment Disorder
Jaliek Rainwalker was born to a drug-addicted mother, and because of this, was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder, making it difficult for him to develop relationships. This also came with behavioral and developmental disorders, which resulted in his living in six separate foster homes before being adopted by Stephen Kerr and Jocelyn McDonald when he was 12 years old. Unfortunately, his new home was filled with fairly unlivable conditions and abuse. His foster parents, clearly not equipped to care for a child like Jaliek, wanted him out of their home. One evening, while he and his adoptive father were alone in a relative's unoccupied home, Jaliek disappeared and has never been seen or heard from since. Did Jaliek really run away as his father claims, or did he do something terrible to him that night, something that he has gotten away with to this day? We discuss all the tragic details in this episode, with a special guest host, Holly from Murd Up Podcast.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/creepitrealpod)
