I can't find anything about whether the truck driver was ever found, came forward, questioned.
I'm fixated on it, because I can't understand why she is talking about this truck driver when she doesn't appear to have been asked about it (video of walk through could of edited that out).
And she talks about the truck driver not as a potential suspect but to tell us "he thanked me for pulling over but I hadn't pulled over, I had my head out the window looking for William"
Why the need to tell us that? Who cares if the truck driver thought she had pulled over?
So there's that aspect that bothers me but also, I would then expect her to question whether the truck driver might have been responsible because clearly the truck driver was in the area at the time.
Later on FM talks about seeing suspicious cars in the area, even locking eyes with one driver.
If FM saw the truck driver thank her for pulling over (which she emphatically denies doing) then clearly she locked eyes with him too (even though she had her head out the window looking for WT).
If my child was suspected to have been kidnapped, and presumably I was asked to go over every car and every person I'd seen in the area at the time, then I'd certainly mention the truck driver.
Because hypothetically the truck driver could have pulled over to have a wee on the side of the road or pulled into a truck stop for something to eat. Spotted little WT walking alone, looking for Daddy. Truck driver walks over to WT, takes him into his truck, starts driving, sees FM, thanks her for (not) pulling over and keeps going.
To be clear: I don't think the truck driver did this. What I'm saying is, it's a plausible scenario that I would expect the FM to consider and for police to find him and rule out.
Instead, I'm only seeing FM refer to the truck driver, not as a potential POI, but as way of defending herself. As way of explaining why she was on the side of the road.
Maybe someone who is more familiar with the case can clarify whether this truck driver was ever found, or is he the new witness?
JMO. Speculation. MOO.
I’m fixated on this now too. Your post is spot on.
