Kyron Horman disappeared from Skyline Elementary School in Portland, Oregon, on June 4, 2010, after attending a science fair. Though local and state police, along with the FBI conducted an exhaustive search for the then-seven-year-old boy but they did not uncover any significant information about the child's whereabouts.

As of 2020, Kyron's whereabouts remain unknown. A new Investigation Discovery special looks into the search for the boy and features exclusive interviews from family members. Read on to know more about the special.

Release date

'Little Boy Lost: An ID Mystery' airs on ID on May 2 at 9/8c. This special is a part of ID PRESENTS: NINE AT 9, with new premieres running nightly at 9 pm ET on Investigation Discovery.

Plot

In 2010, 7-year-old Kyron Horman is dropped off at school in Portland, Oregon, but when the bus returns later that day, Kyron is not on it. Sparking a panicked search around the town led by Kyron’s mother and father, all eyes quickly fall to his stepmother, Terri Horman, the last person to see Kyron alive. Terri’s strange behavior and weak alibi lead investigators to believe that she is a person of interest in Kyron’s disappearance.

Yet nearly a decade later, Kyron has never been found and no arrests have been made in the case. With heartbreaking interviews from Kyron’s family, including his mother, Desiree Young, this special examines all the details of this twisted case, casting light on each shred of evidence that could possibly lead to solving this tragic kidnapping.

Interviews

'Little Boy Lost: An ID Mystery' features interviews of Desiree Young, Kyron’s mother; Young’s husband, Tony Young, a law enforcement professional in Medford and journalists including former Oregonian reporter Lynne Terry and Dan Tilkin, now a KOIN-TV news anchor.

Moulton Horman isn’t interviewed in the special and neither is her ex-husband and Kyron's father, Kaine Horman.
