Description
Nearly five years after a Muncie boy vanished, 13News has discovered new details about the disappearance of Hayden Manis. His case made headlines after 13 Investigates reported Hayden had been missing for years before his disappearance was reported to police.
Sources close to the investigation confirmed for 13News that a woman who used to live with Hayden around the time he vanished provided investigators with a somber account of what happened to the 5-year-old boy.
Those sources, who agreed to speak with 13 Investigates on the condition of anonymity, say Crystal Hall told detectives last fall that Hayden is dead and that she disposed of his body in a trash compactor at a truck stop. 13News has not yet learned how Hayden died.
