This is a mother and son. It was the boy's grandfather, I believe, who was murdered.

He has Asperger's. When his horse died a few years ago, he went missing and turned up in VA.

Terrible and strange story.

Was it a JC? I thought it was a welded aluminum, the pics I saw all looked like a boat from Black Lab Marine...

Yes it was his grandfather that was murdered .
I'm pretty sure that is the JC with an aluminum deck and pilot house that was up in green harbor for a while . Sure looks like it .

You are correct, I googled JC aluminum deck, and found a listing selling this exact boat, the Chicken Pox

Agree on the BLM aluminum - looks like a Seattle type boat.
