I have not read the entire thread, so apologies if my post is somewhat redundant. And, apologies to any of this young woman's family or friends regarding the following points that I call out and ponder. This is a horrible situation, and my heart goes out to her family. One thing is for sure, if anyone can find her...it's the Marines.
Here are my thoughts that come to mind immediately:
[modsnip] What could have happened or have been said to make a young woman flee like this (if she did).
[modsnip]
These are my initial impressions; that she ran off on her own volition. However, if she were upset, it's more likely she would have contacted her mother or someone by now. BTW, young couples simply, or rarely don't spend nights apart at "the ranch" or anywhere else. She was mighty upset about something IMO.
A worse scenario with this statistic in mind:
Isabelle Horon and Diana Cheng published a Maryland study in the Journal of the American Medical Association which found "a pregnant or recently pregnant woman is more likely to be a victim of homicide than to die of any other cause; Homicides account for 20% of deaths in pregnant women."
Let us hope that this is a young couple going through a difficult time that will eventually resolve itself, vs. the latter theory.
God Bless this family, may grace and mercy guide them to a positive outcome.
