LATEST UPDATE: Police have just made a significant discovery in the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of teenager Gus — a folded piece of paper found tucked inside his school backpack. According to officials, the note contained exactly seven words, carefully written in black ink:
“Don’t look for me. It’s already done.”
Detectives say the handwriting appears to match Gus’s, but they are not ruling out the possibility that someone else may have written it to stage or mislead the investigation. The paper showed slight water damage, as if it had been folded and hidden for some time, but no fingerprints other than Gus’s have been confirmed so far.
Authorities are now re-examining the circumstances surrounding Gus’s disappearance, questioning whether the note represents a farewell, a warning, or possibly a message left under pressure. “The wording is too deliberate to ignore,” one investigator commented. “It feels like he was trying to tell us something — or someone wanted us to think he was.”
Police are analyzing the ink, paper texture, and trace fibers to determine when the note was written and whether it was planted later. The backpack was reportedly found near the area where Gus was last seen, raising the possibility that the message was intentionally placed for someone to find.
As the search continues, investigators say this seven-word note could become the key clue to uncovering what truly happened to Gus — and whether he left by choice, or someone wanted him to disappear.
