Alleged Sighting in Blue Ridge Mountains

• 💡 A woman photographed a boy at a Blue Ridge Mountains visitor center who bore a striking resemblance to Sebastian Rogers.
• 📌 She contacted authorities, and the photo was later posted online after the TBI did not respond to her initial submission.
• 🗺️ The alleged sighting location was approximately six hours from Sebastian's home in Tennessee.

Father's Investigation and Official Response

• 🚀 Sebastian's father, Seth Rogers, immediately drove to North Carolina, convinced it was his son, but was denied access to surveillance video due to an active investigation.
• 💬 Authorities stated "nothing credible is pointing to any sign of Sebastian," a response Seth and Nancy Grace found vague and non-committal.
• 🔍 Investigators have not yet identified the boy in the photo, keeping it a potential lead.

Seth Rogers' Polygraph Examination

• ✅ Seth Rogers volunteered to take a polygraph exam arranged by Nancy Grace to address his potential involvement in his son's disappearance.
• 🔬 The test was conducted by Kendall Shu, former head of the FBI polygraph program, using US Government standards and state-of-the-art equipment.
• ⚠️ A previous attempt was unsuccessful because Seth was on prescribed muscle relaxers and nerve blockers for a pinched nerve, which could affect results.

Polygraph Results and Public Reaction

• 🎯 Seth Rogers passed the polygraph, with the examiner concluding "no deception indicated" regarding questions about causing or being involved in Sebastian's disappearance.
• 💬 Despite the clear results, Seth has faced extensive online hate and false rumors claiming he failed the polygraph.
• 👖 A pair of black sweatpants found near Nashville, similar to what Sebastian was last seen wearing, were ruled out by authorities due to incorrect size, which Seth felt reinforced his belief in the North Carolina sighting.
