Wow! I'm from Kentucky and an hour from Louisville and haven't heard one word about this case on the news, so sad - shared the FB with friends immediately.
I do find it quite it interesting that this case, along with Mike Gorley (missing in my hometown) can't get police or media coverage while other missing person cases seem to get quite a bit (seems like females are often very well covered). I'm a coworker of Mr Gorleys close family member, and I believe there is an illicit reason the police are so hush hush on that case; however, this case has me perplexed.
Like many others, I am clearly bothered by certain aspects of this case, including the delayed timeframe of four days to report him missing. But I try to put myself in various scenarios to consider the mindset of the wife. Mike had been off work for an extended period of time... My husband is near the same age as Mike, and honestly if he was off work for any amount of time he'd be on my last nerve I'd speculate. We may argue, I may go to bed angry, and I could wake to find him not here.although odd that his car still home, perhaps he left with a buddy and checked into a hotel, or worse, he called a woman friend (something I may have speculated or have had prior knowledge of in the past),
That being said, hell would freeze over before I'd call him to check on him. As far as my angy self is concerned he can stay in that hotel or with that tramp until he realizes what he's lost and comes begging for forgiveness. And three or four days later I begin to realize NO ONE is getting answers from Hubby's phone. Then I too begin to worry.
Of course police always look at spouses first, AND often the last person to see someone alive is the person involved in foul-play. So obviously I'm quickly realizing that LE think I hurt hubby. Part of me still doesn't know if he ran away with another woman, has went off and killed himself, or fell victim to random or directed outside crime (or perhaps it was me), but I am mentally and emotionally unable to help because of the focus of family, friends, and LE that I'm involved.
And as far as shoes go, I love my husband dearly but honestly if he went missing this second I can't tell what pajamas he's sleeping in tonight and he has twenty pair of shoes so under pressure its highly unlikely could I figure out which pair was missing from his closet! Maybe I'm a bad wife, but sorry - I have a nine year old kid and a full time job, and keeping up with his outfits are his responsibility not mine!
All of this is just IMO only, I certainly pray he turns up safe. Just speculating about the mindset of a wife who may be a victim (or not) as well.
