Tragically, I think this is going to be a random, predator opportunity situation. I think these two young kids were alone, and it became obvious to someone sick, that they were not being supervised closely.
And they took advantage of the vulnerable situation in the worst way. JMO
Morning Katy, and all!
I'm afraid you may be right. I would much rather learn she has been taken by a family member or close friend.
However that isn't logical to me even though I wish it would be the outcome.
If it was out of concern for the children then why would he target only one child when he had the opportunity to lure two away to his van?
It just scares me to death how cunning predators are who selects small children to prey upon. It's sickening how skilled they are, and know how to get into the little minds of their intended targets.
I've even wondered if maybe the man was the one who knocked the ice cream out of her little brother's hand, then told him he needed to go tell his mom she needed to buy him another one to get him away from Dulce.
I know this may not be the case here, but I don't put anything passed these predatory monsters.
As an aside:
I think it's highly likely by now LE does know the approximate year, model, and make of the van he drove.
Imo, if the witnesses were males playing on the basketball court at the time, I find they are usually very detailed oriented when it comes to specific details of vehicles.
As in past cases they may not release the image of the specific vehicle itself being looked for at the time.
That way when they receive the much needed tips they will be able to follow up quickly when they get tips closely matching the van the witnesses collectively has already given them.
Imo, they may not want the suspect to know they know exactly what he is driving, like LE in the WDC Sniper case didn't release it to the public, including any specific identifying markers, such as window decals, scratches, dents, etc. to his own van.
Jmhoo
