Hey guys, thanks in advance for the help. I remember a case that I saw not too long ago where a Hispanic cop drove around looking for his son (I think it was his son, or his daughter) who went missing. I remember the body of his son was found by some other cops and and this Hispanic cop happened upon the scene. The other cops tried to hold him back so he wouldn't see have to see his own son's dead body and he sort of went nuts screaming saying "let me see my son!" Does this ring a bell to anyone? I'm sure it's a pretty common segment, I just forgot the details of it. The reason I bring it up is that it reminded me a lot of the scene from Mystic River where Sean Penn finds the cops around his dead daughter and when they try to hold him back he too goes nuts.

Sounds like the case of Gary Grant, Jr. in New Jersey, but I don't believe he was Hispanic. In that case, the kid was missing and the dad was a cop. When they found the boy's body, the dad went to the scene but they didn't want him to see.

That case always spooked me. They later found graffiti with references to that case in a bathroom and on the side of a squad car.

It was never solved if I remember correctly.

Yeah, I was thinking it was the Gary Grant case. He wasn't Hispanic? Did he have a mustache? I thought I remember him looking Hispanic.

No, he was a white guy.
