On this urgent, special episode of Have a Seat with Chris Hansen, Chris is joined by Eva Yan, mother of Thomas Medlin who’s been missing since January 9th.  15-year-old Thomas of Long Island was seen on CCTV footage at Grand Central Station at 5:30p that same day, his cell phone was later found in lower Manhattan. The Suffolk Police Department believes that Thomas went into the city to meet someone he had been communicating with on the gaming platform Roblox, which according to his mother, is completely out of character for the intelligent and talented teen. Chris and Eva urge everyone to be on the lookout for Thomas, share his photo across social media, and contact the Suffolk Police Department if you have any information.

Come on, man! I didn’t see the text!”

Daryl Rudick is an alleged predator caught in a Blount County, Alabama investigation.  Rudick began communicating with a decoy posing as a fifteen-year-old girl. Before the decoy revealed her age, Rudick
requested "just sex" in exchange for a $100 donation.  When Rudick arrived to the sting house, he talked with the decoy about her Northern accent. He had her say the word "oil" to note the differences between her accent and his. They also talked about Ohio State football, since the decoy said she was from Ohio, wherein Rudick claimed to a bored decoy that Ohio State could not beat Michigan that year. He was right. Chris then emerged asking what his accent sounded like. And the interrogation was on.

"Ah! Oh my god, you scared the crap outa' me!" Barrett's reaction to Chris
coming out.

Mark Barrett is a predator caught in the Blount County, Alabama investigation. He is mostly known for his large ears, muscular build, and passive aggressive attitude during his arrest and interview.  Barrett was born in August of 1985. In a joint operation between the Blount County Sheriff's office and the Genesee County, Michigan G.H.O.S.T. Team, Barrett, under the alias of "Alex," had a sexually charged conversation with the decoy who pretended to be a fifteen-year-old girl.  Barrett was initially skeptical of meeting, fearing that the decoy was actually a set-up to rob him, but eventually calmed his nerves after the decoy sent him a picture of herself. Barrett showed up to the sting house carrying bottles of Coca-Cola and a bottle of Apple Crown Royal whisky. He asked the decoy if she wanted her drink mixed, to which she responded that she wants "a heavy pour," like any normal fifteen-year-old girl would ask for. Then, Chris appeared from around the corner while Barrett was getting ice for the drink, startling him.
