Sometimes I try to flip it the other way.
What possible theories could we come up with that could explain how Gannon could be alive (as she claims), yet also explain why she is spinning out of control in guilt?
He really did go out into the neighborhood in an attempt to find friends who were available to play and...
-An accident befell him, but no one can find him even after 30 days.
-A third party gave him a ride elsewhere where an accident or foul play befell him and no one can find him.
-Someone, known or unknown to stepmom, abducted him.
-Stepmom purposefully took him somewhere or to someone who she believed would return him, but they never did.
-Stepmom is purposefully having him held offsite.
-Gannon somehow got to someone who heard his possible stories of abuse and saw his terrible condition and is quietly sheltering him because they fear courts will return him to stepmom.
What else?
My judgment for now is that all of these possibilities are more far-fetched than the idea that TS harmed him. Mostly I see it this way bc of how guilty she acts and the apparent presence of diarrhea, blood, vomit, tools with blood, cars with blood and so on.
What say you? Do any of the above alternative theories seem interesting to you?
So...I don’t find these explanations likely, but I appreciate the thought exercise.
The last one you included threw me for a loop. It is super far fetched and unlikely, right? But I hadn’t considered that and I am trying to weigh it in my mind.
What if there is a relative or family friend out there who G did turn to? Maybe there is a blowup at the house and he somehow gets word out (while gaming with them or via his phone or social media or something) and someone volunteers to come rescue him.
G shows them bruises, cuts, discloses vomiting, diarrhea, anxiety and more. Now the person believes if they return Gannon, he will be given back to stepmom and that she may be so angry that he disappeared that she would put him through hell.
So let’s say the person decides to take a huge risk and hide Gannon. In super rare cases, we have seen family members and friends harbor kids because they believe the court system has misjudged the living arrangement and they take it into their own hands to go against the law to protect the child.
If the story was really movie-like, in the meantime, they could even be feeding LE tips that Gannon was being seriously abused and even giving them specifics (check this room, look for this object). In the hope TS will eventually be arrested and then they can feel assured G will not be put back in a situation like this.
That scenario is interesting to me. Mostly because it’s one of the only ones where G is alive and even has a protector. I can’t say I believe it’s a real possibility, but I do hope it turns out to be one of those rare unlikely exceptional cases where the truth is more bizarre than the theories. But unfortunately, I think it’s probably way too far fetched.
The only thing I like about it is he would be alive and it would explain why TS seems so sure he just went to hang out with friends and seems to think he could return and prove to everyone he is fine.
But no...after a minute of wishful thinking...I think they will find Gannon and it will be concluded TS was responsible for the circumstances that caused him to go missing.
