Yes, it is...It is possible that the statements released, written and or oral don't express a need for their welfare because they are beyond help, and the parties involved have processed this., ergo, no concern.
Re: the family statement. I was surprised to learn that all four of the adopted children are bio sibs/have the same mom. Do we know the gender of those children?
I hope we’re both wrong. I’d bet the farm were not. I agree. They know all LE is comfortable telling them at this point without revealing possible evidentiary information.I do not feel critical of the West family's statement. I think it reflects that they are privy to information that we are not. Sadly, I do not think the boys will be recovered alive (although I hate, hate, hate even typing that & I hope that I am completely wrong). As we have seen in other cases, there is often evidence early on in the investigation when children are harmed by family members or someone close to them. IMO

IMO the extended family didn't issue a plea to kidnappers because they know there aren't any kidnappers. And IMO they didn't show concern for the well-being of the boys because they believe the boys are beyond needing that concern. JMOO.I have read the statement a dozen times....
It was a "family statement" and written as such.
There's quite a bit of information in there: Family dynamics, fear of death threats, where in mileage family lives, their shock, informing us of LE interviews and their full cooperation.
I have empathy for this extended family....
It would have meant a great deal more to me if the adoptive parents would have issued their own statement. Pleading with kidnappers and showing fear and concern for what the children are going through. For that matter Orrin and Orrsen's names aren't even used until the end.
This really bothers me...
MOO is: I wanted to see fear in them of who has Orrin and Orrsen. And I wanted to see pleading and begging to a kidnapper, instead the author(s) seems to have the need to justify their own actions.... As another poster said, "I would have recommended a less defensive statement."
I wonder if any of the remaining four have been used as imposters of Orrin/Orson?All six children are boys.
I’ve been trying to find your initial post about the recycling center. You called that early on. I’m glad you posted cause I thought it was the one in CC. A you talking about the Bakersfield WM site?I wonder if any of the remaining four have been used as imposters of Orrin/Orson?
I hate this case, and I'm dreading the outcome.
Check that dang recycling center in Bakersfield LE; the outside burn pits is a good place to start. Ugh.
Amateur opinion and speculation
Another consideration - this is an open investigation. Under the circumstances, there isn't a lot the extended family can or should share at this point. JMO-It is possible that the statements released, written and or oral don't express a need for their welfare because they are beyond help, and the parties involved have processed this., ergo, no concern.
They didn't say " hired" they said "engaged"... PI seeking publicity?Yes, she did say that. I think we can put that to rest, the other two boys are not bio-related to Orrin & Orson.
"We have engaged with a team of private investigators and are proactively supporting the official investigation".
I'm curious about the family hiring a team of private investigators? I wonder why they feel that's necessary?
E Planz & Mt. Vernon are the intersection. Satellite the location and you see outside burning pits.I’ve been trying to find your initial post about the recycling center. You called that early on. I’m glad you posted cause I thought it was the one in CC. A you talking about the Bakersfield WM site?
The article is so vague. The word under age is used to describe the bodies but then defined as not large enough to be a teenager or adult. That is still a huge age range, from toddler to preteen. That is, assuming that we’re not also including babies.
3 hours is not far when it comes to trying to get rid of bodies, especially when it takes you across the border into Mexico. I would assume that it would make it much harder to prosecute the case here in the United States or even get an accurate forensic investigation.
As far as I know. If bodies are found in another country the case belongs to the other country. And I wrong?
Engage- b: to arrange to obtain the use or services of : HIRE engage a lawyerThey didn't say " hired" they said "engaged"... PI seeking publicity?
It sounds like it was written by someone with some PR experience.IMO, I found the whole statement excessively wordy and odd choices verbally used.
