Hi, I am new here. This case struck a chord with me like no other, as I know it has a lot of people. I live in TN not that far from Memphis, and only a three hour or so drive to LR, and perhaps that is why, it has touched me so. Also, I am not that many years younger than Beverly and seeing her sweet smile and thinking of what she went through has just broken my heart, as it has for her family.
I apologize if this has been posted before but I was shocked, when I read this news report that detailed all of the prior arrests of Arron. Here is the news link here:

I just cant imagine how with prior convictions, even federal convictions that he was still able to be back out on the street. From looking at this timeline and by the own admission of AL that his first felony was in 1998, it appears to me that he has spent most of his life in and out of jail.
I know several have said that he is dumb. IMHO he is dumb like a fox. If you read his FB page, he seems a lot more educated in his grammar than a lot of folks these days. He also had to be smart to learn how to deactivate all of those store alarms. The super sad thing, is to me, as much as he spent time trying to figure out how to con people, he could have had a great job putting those talents to work.
Like others I cant imagine how he got all of that cash so quickly right out of prison, unless someone was holding it or he had it hid somewhere.
Other things I dont understand that I hope it is okay to mention.
Do we believe the gal that said she saw him with a taser and gun on the Monday before BC was kidnapped?
Several people have mentioned that he threatened them, and/or to rape their wives/girlfriends, since he has been released. One guy said he and another guy tried to break in his home even. Then the incident where the girl said he had held down her dog? Was he not arrested for any of these, or were the police never notified?
Why do you think there was no mention of his wife, at the presser, not even a question about her?
Why do you think they never had him in a bulletproof vest, as most murder suspects are?
And lastly, I never had the vibe of any suspicion toward her family, but in most all kidnapping cases they have the family to take a polygraph, was this ever mentioned?
