I can't answer re: LDS but I wondered if they were referring to the practice of having a large headstone with the family surname, and places for each spouse's info to be engraved underneath at the appropriate time. That's not uncommon - at least in the south - for long-married couples. Maybe...

Love her - her music, her spirit, her vulnerability. She was so open about her depression and mental health issues. One of the sweetest comments I've read was from singer Natalie Grant who ended her Instagram post with "I rejoice that you're it the arms of Jesus, whole in every way, and...

[snipped by me] Very well said; I completely agree. That they have questions is absolutely understandable; I feel it's way too soon to say they'll never accept the answers once they find them. More than anything, I hope they get to a place of peace, even in their grief.

I don't think the food ORDER was a cover story - I think he really did intend that to be his lunch the next day. But he apparently indicated that he was going outside to wait for the delivery. Maybe that was the sole reason he went outside, or maybe he had another/additional reason, IMO.

Seems he would've or at least could've been tracking his delivery driver, and knew when he stepped outside that the arrival wasn't imminent. I wouldn't find it mysterious that he choose to wait outside; there are a lot of reasons one might opt to do so. As for not caring, it appears his...

I understand that perspective but personally don't see the contactless drop off as an indicator. I always choose contactless but typically go to the door and/or step outside (all buildings in my neighborhood look the same and some drivers have difficulty finding the correct driveway & door.)...

None of Caleb's friends/family has expressed any question or surprise about the food order, have they? The roommates only thought it was odd when they found his food the next morning? That tells me neither the use of a delivery service nor the order itself are questionable (differing ideas...

I'm very interested in the results regarding fall patterns & clothing interaction. Once a theory (Riley alone & drunk, tumbled down the embankment into water deep enough to carry him away from shore) is widely accepted, it feels like sometimes subsequent info is bent or filled in to fit the...

I don't think this was a planned escape/disappearance or a hoax, but if it were, I doubt the person on the run would make known their plans, funds, location & contacts. We could assume they had no access to money, but wouldn't know for sure. I think he went out anticipating a quick meeting or...

[snipped for focus] I agree completely - especially with this. I think everything he did was typical and logical, right up until the moment he wasn't able to return home to continue his day as planned. Mackenzie Lueck comes to mind for me, though I'd be happy & relieved if this turned out to...

It seems to me a driver (impaired or not) would have a better chance of getting away with a hit-and-run than if they stopped, realized someone was hurt, loaded the injured or deceased person into their own car, picked up evidence, drove to a second location to dispose of a body, and destroyed...

Just wanted to say thank you, @GatorFL, for this. As one who questioned sliding/tumbling down that section of the riverbank, this gave me all the explanation I needed, in a kind, respectful way. Much appreciated. (I'm not sure I was the "she" being discussed, but I did have that question...

Not trying to convince anyone, but this article that was quoted in Thread 1 really make me think & look for more photos. "The area where Strain was last seen was in a brushy area with cliffs that would make it nearly impossible for the missing student to have fallen into the river, Loney...

I can definitely see "any number of unreasonable things" getting him to the water without another person being involved; it's just the falling, tumbling, sliding, or skidding down that embankment that I can't envision. Maybe I'll come across the right photo that shows how it's possible, once...

I'd been thinking this as well - just waiting for someone to post photos/video as I'd only seen them from unapproved sources. The trees, trash, underbrush, and (at some places at least) retaining wall make me question if anyone could end up in the water unintentionally. It doesn't seem like one...
