WELD COUNTY, Colo. (KDVR) — Officials investigating the case of a missing Weld County woman said they are also investigating another matter connected to that case: a possible fake lead.

Family and friends of Kaysey Yoder said they have seen posts on social media claiming to know her whereabouts, but that person will not come forward without compensation.

A cybersecurity expert explained the line between free speech and breaking the law online.

Trolls online could be breaking a number of laws, from cyberbullying to obstruction of justice, according to Mark Young with CP Cyber Security, a private cyber security consultant firm.

“On one hand, we want a free and open social space where people can express themselves,” Young said. “On the other, we have a civic duty to prevent that space from turning into a platform for bullying, harassment and obstruction of justice.”

In reading back through the articles there's never been any mention made of suspected foul play that I can recall. Without any further clues as to someone else being involved they're probably just clarifying that.

Weld County Sheriff’s Office has an update posted 21 hrs ago.

Still not found. But, they detail all they have done to investigate and locate her, then say:
“Unfortunately, these investigative efforts have not uncovered where Kaysey went or where she is now, but no criminal act is suspected involving Kasey’s departure from home.”

This is confusing. Does she live with her husband and 4 kids? Some reports say she's 39, some say 34, although she looks significantly older than that in most of her pictures.
