Questions I have:
- When was the last verified independent sighting of SM?
- Where was her husband last weekend?
- What's her current marital status, i.e, married, separated, living together or separately, etc.?
- Was SM's cell phone found at the home or not?
"A friend" and I were talking about this case yesterday.
We, too, noted the substantial cost increase b/t the last home in IN and the CO house.
As another poster noted, that can often be an indication of a party receiving an inheritance.
Another possibility would be increased income d/t job promotion or career advancement.
There may also have been some lucrative stock market investments.
Or, it could be a case of people's eyes being bigger than their wallets.
Any time there's a whiff of money around a case, I get concerned.
"For the love of money is the root of all evil."
The charitable foundation is also a bit eyebrow-raising, for various reasons, not the least of which is the relatively small income listed on the foundation's filed tax returns, and by relatively small, I mean 4 figures.
Taken individually, the facts surrounding SM's disappearance don't in and of themselves signal foul play.
Taken collectively, the facts are extremely concerning.
I'm seeing red flags littered all over the field on this one.
