Royce Alan Dotson-Where Are You?

Royce, if you haven't seen my message to you on Facebook here it is:

Royce- When I told you were the son I never had, I meant it. I still feel that way, but the longer you put off turning yourself in the worse it will be. Your side of the story needs to be told, right now all we know is what the media is telling us. I know you Royce and I know your pain. I've spoken with your mom and she has my number. Please contact us as we want to help, you need to meet us half way. Your mom and I are concerned about you, as is your family. We are not sitting in judgment of you, we know that there is more to this story that has yet to be told. Help us to help you, Royce.

This young man is so full of promise, I have not given up hope, nor have I given up on him. Sometimes we take the wrong path, sometimes our situation is unbearable and we may not know what to do, and sometimes we act out and deeply regret our transgressions. I will be with you every step of the way, but you have got to think this through. Running away does nothing, it only adds to the prosecutions case. The longer you put this off the worse it will be for you. You and I have had some great talks and I feel I know you well. I am willing to be on your side and to testify on your behalf, but you have to trust in what I am telling you and stop running. I care about you, I am losing a lot of sleep over you and I just want you to know you are not alone.

I've never stopped believing in you. I never will. Please do the right thing, there are many of us who care about you who will stand by you. We know you did not mean for this to happen.
