In much earlier/previous threads I shared my hypothetical theories as to what may have happened to GS, I’ve stuck with & built upon what I THINK may have occurred (the posts are probably still accessible in thread #10, if anyone cares to read them.) IMO, this all may have started as an ‘accident’ that quickly escalated from bad to horrific, & ultimately led to evidence clean up & disposal.
I combed through numerous sets of both the night & day versions of the video stills. The vehicle activity on the night stills (*IF* they actually reflect any pertinent details) would point to the involvement of 2 or more individuals, possibly the effort of a small group. I think it’s very possible GS was struck by a vehicle (alternately, bumped from the bed of AS’s truck & hit by the trailing vehicle) He could easily have sustained severe internal injuries, even more so if he was in any way “frail” from having been born exceptionally premature.
—>In TS’s on camera interview she described the incident she & her MINOR CHILD experienced with LE while out shopping for essentials. TS explained they were approached by LE to obtain vehicle keys presumed to be in the minor’s possession; in the process the minor was handcuffed, detained, & ultimately LE “took” the vehicle.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t recall this incident as reported by MSM or LE other than the reporter confirming with TS the vehicle was taken during the on camera interview. I read an informative article explaining the State of Colorado’s position on public records. In and of itself the article does a decent job explaining Colorado Law.
The day video RD released to MSM appears heavily edited; I think we’re only seeing a fraction of what actually occurred. JMO, GS’s gait looks freakishly abnormal, the leg movements don’t appear to be his own. If he appeared alive to viewers of the original video, whether heavily sedated/severely injured, I’m not convinced he’s walking entirely on his own—maybe with assistance or to some degree carried. He’s also a lean child, something doesn’t look right to me. Too many shadows to fully understand & must be playing tricks on my eyes. Not that we should believe TS’s statements to be true, but he was reported to have left the house in jeans, not sports wear. Also, listen closely to statements made by RD & reporter(s) What are they not saying?? Who, in addition to TS might be on the surveillance footage other than GS? It seemed a bit odd for RD to stumble over his words when he referenced the “young lady” who left with GS. Review the video again, posting the link below.
By no means am I advocating on behalf of TS, I certainly think her hands are dirty. I’m giving the benefit of the doubt GS’s disappearance was not premeditated. It’s apparent to me, TS is highly sensitive to others’ opinions of her (even those of complete strangers during crisis) She’s gone out of her way to “prove” she’s been a great mother (as a bio & step mom.) I think people who are consumed with presenting a facade of perfection will resort to desperate measures, poor judgement, & concealing the truth when they are faced with situations that could mar the exaggerated portrayal they have developed of themselves & those in their circle; upholding reputations is critical to her.
I have great faith in LE. Every move they make seems strategic & most certainly within the confines of CO State Law. Finding a missing person or evidence of such, especially if well hidden, here in the more rural/remote areas of CO, is a task of monumental proportions. The case becomes even more convoluted if multiple parties are involved. I speculate they have found sufficient evidence through their searches (and as we speak are linking them now) to forensic &/or pathology reports to solidify their findings for an iron clad case. Fingers crossed this is the “calm before the storm.”
ETA: I welcome anyone’s input and feedback, this case is the 1st I’ve followed in great detail. Like RD, thinking about what happened to or where this sweet boy could be has been the source of several sleepless nights. TIA

Another interesting read to tide me over was EPCSO SOP. I didn’t read all 760 pages, just the relevant highlights on investigations, missing persons etc., p. 215-217.
