I read some of the stories on it. The brother said he ran to the room to try and rescue him after he heard the crashing of debris. He swore he heard him calling for help. The authorities moved in and staked a 100 foot safety net around the home and wouldn't move closer until it was deemed safe. I believe the hole grew some during this time. They didn't make extensive efforts to search and rescue, presumed he died, and entombed the body in rock fill. I believe it was a poor area. Several more sinkholes had developed in the area in a short time period. They also demolished the house before they filled it in.
