Yes, why the silver alert?so why the silver alert ... is it because she supposedly has anxiety
I think I read depression somewhere?

Ive read several articles but cant find the answer
Regardless of the reason, I’m sure her family is glad that they did it.It was probably the only way that they could get the police to actively look for her, as she is an adult, and likely the police couldn't do much at that point. Just a guess.
LE didn't explain the precise reason for the Silver Alert. But with a missing adult there are few systems in place to blast out information about the person so the Silver Alert is sometimes used in CT. We know in missing cases how ever minute and hour in the first 2 days is critical and the Silver Alert puts the information out quickly. I guess we will have to wait for LE to provide an explanation in the future. But the concern at the time was real as JD was nowhere to be found and 5 children were waiting for their mother. Where would the 5 children be now if not for the quick thinking of the nanny who took them to their grandmother and the good friends that reported her missing? Its surprising to see locals complaining on SM about the use of the Silver Alert in this case. MOO but I wish other states took a more broad view of the Silver Alert issue as in missing adults in young adults it is so so hard to get action from LE and get the word out about the missing individual. So often it is left to the family to do the early looking before LE steps in (if they ever do step in).so why the silver alert ... is it because she supposedly has anxiety

Exactly. And I have a young child. No devoted mother would go into hiding without the kids. IMOYou can always hope for the best possible outcome.
Hope is a feeling, though.
Feelings aren't facts.
Fact: There was blood found in the home.
LE has said this is a criminal investigation.
Sadly, JD isn't hiding.
She didn't disappear herself.
She was hidden by whoever harmed her.

The grandmother has the children with her in NYC. I don't see the CT Judge-- who has already determined the father needs supervised visitation--to change his opinion. The judge is required to act in the children's best interest and has already done so. The priority is to find JD.My concern is that the existing arrangement was in place because the mother had primary physical cusody. If the mother is not around to take on the care of the children and the father was on supervised custody, I'm not sure what options are available to the court as we have seen grandparents in other cases that were ready willing and able to care for children to be turned down by the court and the children returned to a parent that was unfit or put into foster care. My suspicion is the the grandmother will legally fight a good fight to protect the children but I'm trying to better understand the states options regarding the children if the father puts up a fight which based on what we know seems inevitable given his propensity to win at all costs. It seems unrealistic to expect the state to allow the children to simply remain with the grandmother in NYC for a prolonged period of time.
Me too. I was feeling old since she is only a couple of years older than I am.I did wonder about the Silver Alert too, glad I'm not the only one.
Interesting body language in particular.
Crossed arms, a common pacifying gesture.
Typically, a sign of nervousness. Regardless though, nervousness is understandable.
Yup. He’s acutely aware of the stakes here, and he knows that all eyes are on him.The other thing crossed arms denotes is closed vs. open communication.
It signals, "I don't want to talk about this."
Very defensive posturing. As you said, understandable that he would be feeling defensive.
Considering he's being taken in for questioning by LE r/t JD's disappearance.

@otto, why are you lost? Your map looks fine for getting from Hartford to New Canaan. I think 84 is closer to Farmington though (Hartford folks chime in here) and sometimes the traffic around Hartford can be a mess depending on time of day so it might be easier to hop onto 84 and then shift over to another highway a bit further south.
And she can appeal in a New York court if the judge did award him custody. JMOThe grandmother has the children with her in NYC.

Isn't there also something about what direction someone looks when answering a question - related to memory or imagination? Body language is an interesting topic, and some things are obvious. Crossed arms means we have nothing to say to each other.
