SUMMER WELLS OLDEST BROTHER | HEARTWARMING FOOTAGE
I started my YouTube journey covering a case that remains extremely close to my heart: the Summer Wells case.

When little Summer went missing and I started digging into the case, I realized things were worse than they seemed on the surface. Summer essentially went missing from a house of horrors. Her room was in the dark basement, and it’s clear that a lot was lacking in her life as well as in the lives of her three brothers.

Soon after Summer went missing, her three brothers were removed from the home and placed in the custody of CPS. It’s been said that the two younger brothers have been adopted and stayed together. The older one, Josie, has been placed up for adoption now, and a sweet video and pictures of him have been posted on the Tennessee Kids Belong website.

I thought long and hard about making this video. And then I thought: as disheartening as Summer’s disappearance is, will I continue to pray and seek answers? Her brothers now have a shot at a bright future. The goals and dreams that Josie has for himself warm my heart so much. He seems to be a lovely young man that will grow and thrive in a loving home with supportive parents.

Josie likes playing video games and gaming on his phone. He loves basketball and Frappuccinos at McDonald’s. Josie also enjoys being in the woods and out in nature, and he loves animals. Take a look at this heartwarming video and keep Josie in your prayers — that he may find his forever family that will love, care, and support him for the rest of his life.

Hi, I’m Josie, and I’m 13 years old.
