What's happening now?
The first P.I. hired by a family member quit last September. Vilt said he left the case voluntarily because he felt Vernal (Big DeOrr) and Jessica were not being upfront with him. In January 2016, he released a letter addressed to the parents dated Sept. 25 in which he accused Vernal Kunz and Mitchell of lying to him and not paying for his travel expenses related to the investigations.
In early March, the attorney representing the parents of missing Idaho Falls boy DeOrr Kunz Jr. announced they had fired Klein Investigations and Consulting, the PI agency hired after Vilt quit. In a written statement, the attorney also announced the child’s family is pursuing a lawsuit against the private investigation firm for breach of contract and defamation.
The firing came shortly after the Klein agency gave a press update confirming that the parents were considered POIs/suspects. But the Texas-based company’s CEO, Philip Klein, said his detectives won’t be leaving the case any time soon.
He told the Journal that he has been hired by an anonymous client to continue his investigation into what happened to little DeOrr, who was reported missing from his family’s campsite in Lemhi County on July 10, 2015.
Sheriff Bowerman's last public statements indicate that he considers the parents suspects due to the FBI polygraphs and inconsistent statements made by Big DeOrr (Vernal) and Jessica. The Sheriff thinks the boy's parents know where his body is located.
The hope is that new searches after the snow melts, possibly with the help of Tim Miller's Equusearch, will result in little DeOrr's remains being located and identified.
