I too am new here and have read all the posts in these threads and am just offering an observation here- I have thought of all these different scenarios in my head and people who could be involved other than Casey and Sandy Parson, so far we have very little info or facts from investigating agencies. I personally have been somewhat fixated on these people, "Strawberry" and "Kelly" and would like to know more about any possible involvement they may have, I think for the simple reason that I don't want to believe this poor girl is actually dead so am just going over any other possibility€ there might be. Doesn't mean I am siding with the Parsons in any way shape or form, or trying to deflect attention off them. I think from reading all the posts, this may be where Esquire is coming from and why he/she is so fixated on Carolyn but I think everyone can all agree that the way Casey and Sandy Parsons have behaved by letting their 13 yo daughter go off with a virtual stranger and to seemingly not care about ever having contact with her again (while continuing to cash her monthly checks) is just reprehensible.
The most likely and logical truth is that CP and SP did something to her and she is gone forever. But I don't think there's anything wrong with looking at other people that could possibly be involved until it actually been confirmed that they killed her.
