Scott Boettler, a friend of Michael Devlin, helps pack up the contents of Devlin's apartment Monday, Feb. 12, 2007 in Kirkwood, Mo. Devlin is the 41-year-old pizzeria manager charged with kidnapping 11-year-old Shawn Hornbeck in 2002 and 13-year-old Ben Ownby on Jan. 8, both from rural areas of eastern Missouri. Both boys were found alive in Devlin's apartment Jan. 12. (AP Photo/Jeff Roberson)KIRKWOOD, Mo. (AP) - Movers clearing out the tiny apartment where police found two missing boys worked briskly through a drizzle Monday, hauling a beat-up skateboard, video game consoles and play sets for plastic soldiers.

The toys, board games and fantasy card games fit the lifestyle that prosecutors say 41-year-old Michael Devlin lived for more than four years after kidnapping one of the boys — alternately playing with the teen, who was allowed to leave the apartment on his own, and abusing him mentally and physically.

Devlin, a 300-pound pizzeria manager, has pleaded not guilty to kidnapping charges in the counties where police say the boys were abducted. He has yet to enter a plea to kidnapping charges and 69 counts of forcible sodomy in the county where he lived.
