His mother reported him missing on Jan. 5, initially claiming he was last seen on Jan. 4 with his teenage sister in Skokie, Illinois, and the girl and Damari had gone to a party with her friends. The mother claimed that the 16-year-old had fallen asleep drunk and when she woke up Damari and one of her male friends were gone. Police said they later determined the story was a lie.
She is scheduled to be back in court in February, according to FOX 32.
