Nonilex<p>Pannone was not the only one trying to uncover that secret: For decades, the man’s half sister, Heather Tessman, whom their biological mother had given up for adoption before her son was born, fruitlessly dug through yearbooks of local schools she found online, …hunting for the brother she had met once, when she was 3 yrs old.</p><p>“You can’t find a person who doesn’t exist,” Tessman, 35, who lives in Vernon, CT, said in an interview.</p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/criminal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criminal</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/abuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abuse</span></a></p>
Nonilex<p>Lopes can still picture a too-skinny kid with an infectious smile. The boy was standing on the peeling porch next door, but ventured no further.</p><p>“I said, ‘Where have you been?’” Lopes recalled. “I’m home-schooled,” was his answer.</p><p>In a warrant for Mrs. Sullivan’s arrest, the man said that his stepmother & his father forbade him to have friends. “I have been kept a secret my entire life,” he told the police.</p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/criminal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criminal</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/abuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abuse</span></a></p>
Nonilex<p>Frustrated, Pannone tried another way.</p><p>He asked for the help of the Lopes family, who lived next door to the Sullivans & whose son, Peter, was then a 10-yr-old Barnard student. Pannone asked Peter & his family to keep an eye on their neighbor.</p><p>Peter Lopes, who is now 29, has not lived in the neighborhood since 2009, but said he remembered the last time he saw his classmate…shortly after the boy was pulled out of Barnard.</p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/criminal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criminal</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/abuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abuse</span></a></p>
Nonilex<p>But the child was still always hungry and disheveled. Over the five years the boy attended Barnard Elementary, Mr. Pannone said he made call after call to the Department of Children and Families. Each time, he said, they would investigate and report back that the child was fine.</p><p>“You knew something was not right,” Mr. Pannone said in a recent interview. “He appeared to be a happy-go-lucky kid, but we knew that something was amiss.”</p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/criminal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criminal</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/abuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abuse</span></a></p>
Nonilex<p>Tom Pannone, who was a principal at Barnard Elementary School, says he can remember the uneasy feeling he had about the child enrolled at his school in 2001. The boy arrived daily with a dirty plastic lunchbox; at least once, Pannone found him in a bathroom before school started, devouring his packed lunch. It was there that he saw the boy standing at a urinal, drinking the water as he flushed. Mr. Pannone called the boy’s stepmother, he said, & the behavior stopped.</p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/criminal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criminal</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/abuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abuse</span></a></p>
Nonilex<p>“She is adamant that she had done nothing wrong,” her lawyer, Ioannis Kaloidis, said in an interview 🤯. Kaloidis laid blame on the biological father, <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/KreggSullivan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KreggSullivan</span></a>, who died in January of last year [do she kept it up for over a year after the father’s death. Sure, she’s totes blameless 🙄]. (The biological mother had given up her parental rights to Sullivan, to whom she was briefly married.)</p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/criminal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criminal</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/abuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abuse</span></a></p>
