Detective Superintendent Michael Willing told a media conference this morning that investigators have "specific information" relating to a paedophile ring.

“We have information that we’ve received in relation to a paedophile ring that may be operating,” he said.

“That’s all I can say at this point."

“I don’t want to compromise what we’re doing in relation to that but we have specific information about that.”

Three-year-old William had been playing with his sister during a surprise visit to his grandmother's home on Benaroon Drive at Kendall, on the NSW mid-north coast, on Friday, 12 Sept. 2014.

The two were playing just metres from the family home when William suddenly disappeared.

This morning, William's parents spoke out for the first time, begging for their little boy's return.

In the video, released by NSW police this morning, William's parents say they still hope their son is alive.

“If somebody has him and if he’s alive ... I want him to be safe, I want him to be feeling loved and I want someone to be looking after him ... because to imagine that something else is going on ... we can’t live a life like that,” William’s mother said.

“Just give him back ... give him back. “Take him to a church, take him to a police station, take him to a school. “Give him to someone ... give him back,” she begged.

William’s mother says when he failed to respond to her calls as he played outside just metres away, she knew he’d been kidnapped.

“I had a vision in my head... I can’t explain it."

“That somebody reached over and I sort of feel like they’ve gone 'clump' on his shoulders, picked him up and moved him on ... because to me ... that’s the only way for me to explain him not to be there,” William's mother said.

"He’s a cheeky, vibrant little boy ... full of energy."

William's father choked back tears as he spoke about his son.

"I mean, he’s my little boy,” his father said. "He loved planes and we’d even taken him to the airport and watch the planes take off and land."
