Initial data
Ricardo Gutierrez was walking in the woods with his 6-year-old nephew Arturo when the child disappeared. After a thorough search conducted by villagers, he was not found, and the uncle was charged with the murder of the child.
While awaiting trial, 33 days after the disappearance, little Arturo appeared at his home, well fed, and his condition did not deteriorate at all during the disappearance.
When asked where he was, he replied:
"Lived with little men. They gave me food and milk and honey. We played a lot. I was very happy."
The locals believed in "little men" called "sanetime" who loved to inspire children to play with them.
