OK, this is my first post ever, so I am sorry if I break the rules. I have read them and think I am fine. I also have read all of the posts, and cannot handle being silent anymore. Since everything is a possibility, these are my OPINIONS, not facts.
1.) The baby was not taken by a wild animal. I live in Idaho and have NEVER seen a mountain lion. I am sorry, it could have be true, but I would estimate them at 1 in 10,000,000. I'm sorry folks, that is not happening. If people are speculating on a wild animal, they need to change it to a bald eagle, mule deer, moose, or wolf, not a mountain lion or bear.
2.) The baby was not abducted by a stranger. Once again, possible, but not likely at all. I mean really, there are 10,000 of these locations in Idaho, just like this. What exactly are the chances that someone is lurking out there, waiting for the family to turn their back. ZERO, ZIPPO, NADA... I'm sorry. Why would this be the spot to steal a kid? It makes absolutely no sense. There is just no need to go 40 minutes off a paved road to do it, besides without a car. The abductor would have to have a semi truck full of supplies to last all summer, waiting for the right moment.
3.) I want to understand more about the store visit. Why is it not clear, exactly how many times the father was at the store? Why was the clerk off by 5 hours, when she probably only had 5 customers all day? Did the father really drive 40 minutes to camp (from the store), 40 minutes back to get a candy bar (to the store), and then 40 minutes back to the camp (from the store)? I doubt it, because that is a lot of $$$ spent on gas for no reason for someone who is tight on money.
4.) On the reservoir... A ton of discussion on walking the .4 miles... How do people think he walked that distance without making a single track or footprint? I don't think it matters if it took 10 minutes or 10 hours, the baby had to leave some form for tracks over that distance, if he walked it.
5.) As for the creek... I am trusting LE when they say he is not in there. Once again, no footprints (that I have heard).
Conclusion... I of course do not know what happened. I can't even really speculate... But I want to hear of some proof that Little Doerr was even at the campground.
