Wow! The dad’s interview this evening was quite interesting and certainly hopeful. Any young lady who has two brothers, a bf and a bf’s brother is going to be exposed to a lot of young men whether they want to or not. I mean, think about it. Each of the 4 males mentioned very likely has his own circle of at least 2-3 friends. Then you have to take into account old friends from high school, new connections made during one’s first year of college, and any online chat connections. And from what we’ve been told, MT has a gift for making people feel good about themselves. She’s a psych major and champion for social justice who most likely cheers for the underdog. And that’s great and probably a big reason why her case has garnered so much attention. But, unfortunately any attractive young lady who goes out of her way to make a possibly awkward and insecure male feel good about themselves runs the risk of being misinterpreted (especially by an unstable individual capable of holding someone against their will).
So, if she’s alive and with someone, does this come down to “who is also missing?” Maybe no one “noticeable” which is possible if it was a new out-of-town friend from college or an online acquaintance that no one within MT’s close circle even knew about. Or is she being held in the area by someone that isn’t missing? Now, that would be crazy and really difficult to pull off especially for this long. But LE’s search does seem to be centered locally or at least they’re making it appear that way.
Well, I think the possibility that MT is alive would more than explain and justify LE’s reluctance to give out information. And just think of how much information LE would have from her tech footprint. Just cellphone records and text messages can tell you so much about someone’s connections, relationships and even the nature of those relationships very quickly. In fact, MT’s footprint may have painted an obvious picture regarding “who” was getting the wrong idea about their relationship relatively fast. So, LE may know exactly who they’re trying to draw out, they just don’t know where she’s actually being held. Every press conference has appeared to be directed at the perp, we just didn’t know that they knew who exactly that was. But from what the dad said tonight, maybe they did and do. And at this point, I wouldn’t even be surprised to find out that LE has been negotiating with the perp much of this time and/or that the dad has actually talked to Molly. Who knows, but if she’s still alive and ends up being reunited with her family...wow!!! That would be unexpectedly wonderful and amazing!!
