I constantly speak to my friends about these cases.
They laugh, stating, these things don't happen around us, stating I am paranoid.
We all need to be aware.
A book recommended, on one of the Websleuths sites is "The Gift of Fear" by Gavin de Becker.
Intuition is the key, in this book, as many have shown here, with envisaging today's result correctly.
MOO.
There is a "kid" from my neighborhood who is actually an adult now. He's got a burglary on his record now. Probably other stuff. Super spoiled as a child. But he was always very sweet and kind. Now he's drug-addled, manic, entitled and creepy.
But most of the guys in the neighborhood feel he's harmless. Me and one other lady, do not. I suddenly got gut-level scared when he came over one day begging for money as he often has. Something in his eyes. I felt in danger. never had before. My cat actually attacked the hell out of him, out of the blue.
Then one day when he knew I was home working (my car was in the drive), he came lurking around, was using my hose and outside electricity and knocked several times. I I did not answer. But then I saw him trying to get in the window...
I called the police and they put me in a weird (yet understandable) position of trying to make me say outright that I wanted him gone. A couple friends in the neighborhood thought I was crazy for calling the police.
I just coincidentally found out that another woman in the neighborhood who sometimes walks my dog, has had unwanted encounters and dealings with him, finds him to be super creepy, he begged off her and likely stole all her client's keys and she told me he seems "rapey". So three of us in the neighborhood have this feeling. No one else.
We are now texting each other when we notice him lurking around the neighborhood, to warn each other. (Luckily, I have a new and violent dog who can hopefully protect me a lot of the time).
I have felt stupid and maybe that I was overreacting about my feelings. But it's smart to pay attention to that. It can indeed be a gift.
I wonder if Kelsey ever felt that stirring. Some sort of vibe or feeling or secret fear.
You know, maybe i am the only one, but I almost felt fear in him. He felt cornered all these days, it was obvious. This is why he did not get out of the ranch. This is why he did not allow KB's mother to look at the child. He was afraid to look into mom's eyes. Not that he felt guilty - but he felt scared for himself.
MOO
Yeah I agree. I think fear of seeing her may have motivated him to keep the baby away from her. But his body language and expression in that video and still shot? Pure, sinister malice, IMO. Not an ounce of fear at that moment that I could see. But fear and rage can be pretty close.
