As the search for Sylar Newton continues, disturbing information regarding his custodial mother, Christina Priem has been released. Sylar Newton is 2-years-old and disappeared while camping with Christian Prime at the Beaver Creek campground in Arizona on July 25, 2010. Reports say that Priem and Sylar’s birth mother, Charity Newton, had a verbal agreement where they shared custody six months out of the year. The new information says that back in January, Sylar Newton went to a babysitter who found a marijuana pipe in his backpack. Sheriff’s with the Coconino County Sheriff’s Department said that there was marijuana found on the pipe.
According to reports by KFYI, the babysitter went to change Sylar’s diaper and took a diaper out of the backpack and found the pipe. She notified the sheriff who approached Christina Priem who is Sylar’s custodial mother. She is also the woman who was in charge of Sylar when he disappeared from the campground and says she was sleeping in the same tent with him when he vanished.
When Christina Priem was questioned she denied knowledge regarding the pipe and said her sister was involved. The case was dropped and Christina Priem wasn’t charged with a crime. She could have faced a possession charge or contributing to the deprivation of a minor child, but the case was closed.
