Soon after they were reported missing, Kuhbander's mother posted on social media that she did not believe her son left with Anderson willingly. She said Anderson was a danger to herself and that her son was probably trying to help her.
Kuhbander and Anderson reportedly dated for several years, but were no longer a couple, according to his mother.
