Father, Paul, died soon after.∼Gage, 2, was last seen in a remote area 30 miles east of Salt Lake City, Utah on October 26, 2000. His father, Paul Wayment, had taken him on a hunting trip in his pickup truck.
Paul left Gage sleeping, strapped into the truck seat, while he scouted deer in the area. When he returned forty minutes later, Gage was gone. He was found a week later on November 1, frozen to death in the woods. He had apparently left the truck by himself, wandered into the woods and gotten lost and died.
Paul Wayment, who had gotten custody of Gage after divorcing the child's mother, was sentenced to a month in jail for his negligence which resulted in his son's death. On the day he was supposed to go report to the jail, Paul went up into the mountains and shot himself with his hunting rifle.
