On Jan. 27, the teen’s mother became suspicious when she noticed her son was not home at 5 a.m. and he lied about his whereabouts, police said. She began to review his text messages and discovered texts from two names, and one discussed an “age difference,” police said.

The mother confronted her son, who admitted both names were used by Fichter, police said. The mother informed police of the relationship Monday.
