And gives her opportunity to have somebody at the door and she throws the red shirt on to answer it...that’s the most logical reason for me for the missing shirt and no sign of a scuffle inside. She could have even went on porch to talk to person...and it was probably somebody she knew.Well if she was doing classowk late on the 18th, she made it home from a 730ish Walk/jog
So she could simply let the dogs out and she did not have to go outside herself.
I can’t speak about all dogs, but the ones I have seen are not eager to go out in the rain. So did she stand there or did she go get ready while the dogs were out?
"But, if she was taken from the house though, how could she have taken her phone with her? Am I just missing something? Would that person turn off her phone and take it with them? Sorry if these are ignorant questions."
I wonder what the coworkers thought when she didn't come to work? Did any of them try to contact her? Did her boss try to contact her? I don't know, but it's possible the boss didn't. Just going from memory of when I was working, I didn't call anyone if they hadn't shown up for work. I sure didn't call their family looking for them. But I don't know what the policy was normally like at her work, or what was done that morning when Mollie failed to report to work.
They probably tried calling her and when there was no answer, they called the boyfriend. I thinkSnipped a bit. I wonder if she left the front door open so the dogs could go out and come right back in while she got dressed? An open door and no vehicles nearby might be seen as an invitation to many unsavory characters.
I stick mine in my back pocket when I'm leaving the house or getting ready to leave so I don't forget it. I also keep it in my pocket if I'm listening to music on headphones/ear buds and moving around.
Snipped for space- I would imagine it would depend on the employer, coworkers, or Mollie herself if anyone called. Since she seemed responsible and it was a field trip day, I'd imagine there were at least one call from a coworker, especially since someone called her boyfriend.
I have 2 daughters so thank you for the book suggestion!Welcome here!
I agree with you. If she was attacked in the home that totally reduces the possibility of random/stranger type attack.
I'm thinking someone knew she was there. Scary.
Thanks for the optimism and encouragement to keep hopeful and send prayers. Any positive energy can help I think.
At the least it helps those who love Mollie.
And we've seen that some people can come back. Alive.
And we have every reason to assume she was on her laptop in the house.
And who wants to wear the red shirt all day long after a sweaty run...yuck.Her boyfriend mentioned in one of the early articles that it was her routine to go in the early evening before it got dark. It seems like night or early morning (as someone else mentioned) would be out of character.
I really don’t think she went out running on Thursday morning early due to the weather.
The weather would be good cover for an abduction though.
she might have thought her brother was there to give her a ride. Instead it was someone else. Maybe got maced in the face or something.
The only thing that makes sense is that someone came up to the house that a.m. How hard was it raining?
The perp must have known Mollie was there alone. Wasn’t the perp worried someone else would drive up to get her in the a.m.?
Did the bf send a response to the snap chat he opened @10pm and not hear back? If so, why no response?1. computer activity tells us she was in the house working on her computer late on Wednesday evening
2. no signs of forced entry or struggle tells us ... what exactly?
3. wallet & contacts/eyeglasses left in the house tells us ... what exactly?
4. dogs in the basement tells us ... what exactly?
<snipped quoted post>
Isn’t it weird that someone actually took this photo of her and her coworker
Do you have a link about the shirt not being found?
This new info tonight definitely gives me hope that maybe she just left town for a bit.
