Missing Child Actor

Posted by on January 18 at 12:40 PM

So the PI reported earlier this week that a local child actor is missing. The police think Joe Pichler, who appeared in some movies you’ve never heard of, killed himself. They found his car near a bridge, along with some poetry—never good signs. Picher’s family doesn’t believe he killed himself and are a little upset about with the police. And who can blame them? What mother wants to hear a cop say about her son, “it could take months for him to show up in the water.”

I wanted to post a link to the PI story along with a photo of the missing child actor—who is actually 18 now (or was 18)—along with a photo and so I typed his name into Google images. (Just wanted to help spread the word.) And I did find a couple of photos, and I clicked through… and then I noticed the URL was for a website called “boyhaven.” Um, that sounded like it might be some creepy child porn site—or a site that assembles “innocent” pictures of young boys for the viewing pleasure of creepy old men—and so I quickly closed my web browser and went and washed my hands.

Anyway, here’s a safe link to click through to about the missing child actor. And if you see Pichler—hopefully not in the water—call the cops.

Yahoo had a recent photo of him with the story I saw yesterday.
