http://wncn.com/2017/06/30/as-vanis...-a-mystery-experts-discuss-how-searches-work/Flint said they don’t just conduct searches of areas.
As CBS North Carolina has reported, investigators used a helicopter and boat to search Falls Lake Thursday.
“We’ve got to have some information that would allow us to reach out or search a specific spot,” Flint said.
Both Harrison and Flint agreed that law enforcement can’t release all the information they have. They said they were confident those on the Cope case are doing everything they can to bring her home safely.

BBM. Interesting phrasing. I wonder what info they have that led to the search at Falls Lake and what they are holding back. I suggested it earlier in this thread just because it is near the gas station and it's a vast area. I have also noticed there are lots of pictures of Allison at the lake on her social media. Perhaps it is a favorite spot for her to go on her days off.
Do you think that if this was a volunteer leave situation that she would have been careless about the gas station surveillance and trace of her debit card usage?.
OT, but today I was approached in a parking lot. The man had his car hood raised. He said, "excuse me ma'am, can I ask you a question?" I immediately had a bad feeling. But the thing is he wouldn't approach me, he wanted me to walk over to his car. I did not. I said abruptly, "ask."
He started giving me a convoluted story about needing an alternator, only had $100, needed $117, something about his wife and needing a ride. I didn't let him finish, just said no, got in my car, locked the doors, wrote down his license plate #, car make and model.
Then I saw two men walk directly by him and he did not approach them. Then a woman walked by and he tried to speak to her, but she kept walking.
I just thought about Allison. I don't know whether this guy was legit or up to no good, but it was WEIRD. What if something like that happened to her and she fell for it and the guy was evil?

This is my first time posting, I live in the area and actually just attended the same concert Allison did last week <modsnip>
Yes, and the car would be "lost" among the sea of cars in the parking lot. For weeks maybe?I noticed she has a picture of her passport from her trip to Paris, I wonder if that passport is at home.
Just thinking... The FBI are more than likely involved because she disappeared from the airport which is Federal. I'm just thinking out loud but .... If I were to want to fly to meet someone and keep it secret, I would drive at least to the next commercial airport and fly from there. If I were an airport employee, I would not leave from that one.

I think it's because she lives so close. Shoreline is less than a quarter of a mile away. She could and probably has walked to the lake by taking a short jaunt through the woods from her home.
I've been doing a lot of thinking from the 30,000 foot view, and there are a few things I'd like to proffer, especially point No. 4.
1. I don't think Ms. Cope is alone. I think she's with someone, maybe a friend-gone-rogue, or someone she can trust. I think this person may have made contact with Ms. Cope between the airport and the Shell station, or after she left the Shell station.
2. I'm not entirely sure that Ms. Cope is even aware that she is internationally recognized as a missing person (yes, internationally; there have been reports in several Asiatic countries as well. I'm impressed with how much coverage she's received.). Without having her phone or a computer, her media intake is greatly diminished.
3. I'm still worried that (1) Ms. Cope left in the middle of a break without her possessions, and (2) that she left without informing anyone, and (3) that she still has not notified anyone of her location, specifically when she knows she has work commitments.
4. Concerning Ms. Cope's roommates: I am hesitant to believe that they enjoy the perfect relationship MSM is portraying, especially knowing they have lived together in excess of 10 years. What is particularly alarming to me is that Sarah Kosinski is acting as if it has been an established fact that Ms. Cope has been, or is being, harmed by another. Take for example, the following:
a. Kosinski told police on Monday that she was "preparing for the worst, but hoping for the best." Now, at this point, Ms. Cope had only been missing for a few hours. In cases similar to these, it's common for individuals to act with hope -- to a fault. They're slow to accept the worst in the face of it all, even after seeing the decedent for themselves, in person. They just can't believe it. Yet, here we have Kosinski already working towards accepting the fact that her beloved roommate is gone forever.
b. <modsnip>
c. Kosinski has used personal Pit Bulls from the rescue, along with a helicopter she personally rented, as a means of searching for Ms. Cope. These sorts of methods are employed when a deceased body is being searched for, not someone believed to be alive. In fact, these methods are more reminiscent of a social media publicity campaign than a missing person's search. Traditionally, when it comes to searches, friends and family are insistent on searching the ground, because they believe that the missing will hear their voices and return. Searching in such a distant way suggests a degree of psychological separation that has me uncomfortable.

These facts strike me as odd, and they're difficult to reconcile.
