Seems like that must be the case. We all saw the devastation of the parents in the first interview. They would not just go merrily up to Atlanta on a pre-planned trip when their child’s life was seemingly at risk.
They had some reason to think she was there. They printed up flyers. Yet nothing was known about the kidnappers, no description, car, nothing.
Yet they went to Atlanta.
And after telling us that they received so many cruel fake tips by text. They choose to believe the RRI text and gather the family to go there, knocking on doors.
It is all very puzzling.
Had Carlee ever taken off before…gone to Atlanta or the RRI? That might explain it.
