To be fair, camping is a leader in the "Hospitality" field (hotels, motels, resorts, etc). Unlike most of the economy, camping is currently growing in record numbers. As a large segment of America, camping (or RV-ing) reflects society. Half-million dollar motor homes are common, but so are dated, cramped travel trailer purchased on Craigslist for less than a thousand, parked in a monthly or long term rental space. Some RV-ers are in it for the hospitality and companionship......every year hundreds of thousands of "snowbirds" migrate between north and south with the seasons. At the other end of the spectrum, anonymity and living without much expense are the attractors. This RV park does not appear to cater to one segment of their market over another........which again could be said about more than half of the RV parks in North America.You make several good points that could easily explain some of the questions we still have. A stalking kidnapping IS different, and the SO still has to be ruled out. MOO
So that would explain the speed toward BM, clearing him , while focusing on the stalking at the same time.
These are going to be difficult to solve especially when you have a tourist community...Myrtle Beach, SC comes to mind. It’s not the legitimate tourists committing the crimes, it’s the ones who slip below the radar.
The primary reason for attention to this RV camp is that it is adjacent to, and directly connected by highway, back road and paths to the area of SM's disappearance. I have heard there is a direct line of sight from locations in the RV park to SM's home. I've never been there, so I don't know it for a fact; but it certainly opens up the possibility of convenient stalking........by any stalker.............even someone who could stalk by other means such as phone and text. IMO
