Maybe she knows the RRI wouldn't have robes and thought their TP would be too scratchy

Maybe she won't get arrested because police figure spending 49 hours at a Red Roof Inn was punishment enough...

FBI involved!!!!!

AND Secret Service!

Carlee's 911 call remains the only report of a toddler on the interstate.

From presser: traveled length of 6 football fields, telling 911 operator she was following the toddler

Data from Carlee's phone shows she traveled 600 yards in her car while on the phone with 911.

From presser: Items from work not found in or around car

Data from Carlee's phone including her Life360 app showed she traveled 600 yards in her vehicle while on phone with 911. 6 football fields stretch, sheriff says.

Hoover 911 received 2nd call from Carlee's mother discussing "other relative hearing Carlee scream".
Police arrived within 5 mins.
Wig and phone found in grass.
Food ordered at Greek place in car - snacks not in vehicle.

Throughout Friday, they searched at the scene for evidence with people and K9 teams. No evidence found. Volunteer search parties activated, zero evidence found.

Carlee's residence - 911 call at 10:45pm Saturday night, Carlee returned on foot.
She was seen on surveillance walking home.

Detectives got a brief statement from her at hospital:

Told them she saw a baby walking on side of road.
Man came out of trees and mumbled he was checking on baby.
Man picked her up and she screamed.
Made her go over fence, forced her into car.
Put her into 18 wheeler.
Apparently a female was there who she never saw, but heard her voice
Heard baby crying
Man had orange hair with bald spot LOL
Escaped 18 wheeler and fled on foot, captured again!
Blindfolded, not tied up because captor didn't wanna "leave impressions on wrist"
Made her undress in a house & took pics of her, but no assault...
Was fed cheezits by female... woman played with her hair
Escaped from vehicle again, ran through woods
Came out by her residence
Carlee had small lip injury
Had $107 cash in her SOCK!

This is absolutely unbelievable. Wow.

Carlee has not allowed LE to interview her a second time.

I hope my post helped those of you who couldn't catch the presser, I tried to sum it up as well as I can. I think this had to do with her boyfriend and getting attention...

Bathrobe and toilet paper (place of employment) and granola bars and Cheez Its (Target) that she exited those places with were not located in the car.

I already have questions on something I've missed. How long did he say she stayed outside in the

No clue

 

[nikki80]

OMG so all of the rumors were true

 

[Snail-Overlord]

I stepped away for like 15 minutes and everyone is talking about the Secret Service?

 

[Gardenista]

Omg, all the rumors are true. I'm lmao

 

[Inthedetails]

From presser: she told detectives a man emerged from trees, took her, made her go over fence, into 18-wheeler. Said female in vehicle and baby. Man had orange hair. She escaped but caught again. Not bound because captors didn't want to leave marks. They took pictures of her.

 

[ilovewings]

OMG---SMH

 

[ifimmurderedjoedidit]

Oh my gosh. She remembers being in an 18-wheeler. And fed cheese crackers! The "Rumors" were true!

This girl could write a book

 

[MACMUA]

Does she have a history of being a liar/melodramatic/attn seeking like Sherri Pappini? This is very confusing considering on the video...she did exactly what the caller on her cell phone told the cops..There was no small child in that video....I don't think its a hoax..I think maybe she was exhausted/tired so bad she was seeing things..and she got lost. Still her wig was found on the road....There is someone that knows something. I didnt see another car or even another person on that video..she was alone. So there are so many dang questions about how it went down

 

[Inthedetails]

From presser: she escaped again and walked home. Had small injury to lip, tear to shirt, head hurt.

 

[iluvmua]

So they fed her Cheez It's that she happened to buy at Target???

Seriously???
