This is turning into a circular argument over something that will be decided in a court of law should any of the individuals involved consider themselves an "injured party". For all we know they may decide the additional public attention is not worth it and may be served more by the attention being directed elsewhere. And we are loosing focus on the real issue, where is Jacob? The rest of the dust will settle where it will.
I know this is not the thread, but Tracker since you are onboard here, where in your experience do you think Jacob may be concealed?
