"I would video call him and the background didn't look presentable, like the walls were peeling and he would hold the phone pretty close so I couldn't see the whole surrounding," she said in an interview with CBC News."
""I didn't think he was at a friend's house, because what friend?," she said. "Why can't you give this friend's name? Where does this friend live? So many things [were] running through my mind.""
"Saskatchewan RCMP said they were able to track down the address where they believe Webb-Long had been living in Pelican Narrows, a community that's part of Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation, located about 420 kilometres north of Saskatoon."
Jay'siiah Webb-Long, 16, lived in Brampton with his mother, Shenice Long, and four siblings. He was last seen at home in mid-March after leaving for a friend's house and did not return. The last communication occurred over Instagram in mid-May. Video calls during that period showed peeling walls and close framing that obscured surroundings. Peel Regional Police initially declined a missing persons report on March 29 because communication continued and Webb-Long told his mother he was at a friend's. Saskatchewan RCMP traced an address in Pelican Narrows but found the area evacuated due to wildfires. RCMP now treat the case as suspicious.
