Irrelevant. We are not discussing what he did that day but where he is now. Sacramento was on his mind in the week before his disappearence so unless you provide some tangible reason to exclude it, I dont see why you so aggressively shut down that line of discussion.
That's a misinterpretation.
All I said is that there was only "one" reference to Sacramento, related during a conversation in Ruby Valley, and that he returned to St George.
People who knew Steven, knew nothing about Sacramento. No search was ever conducted there; no flyers.
The people in Ruby Valley told him a storm was coming in, so it wouldn't be a good day to drive to Sacramento. He returned to St George (verified). If he really intended to drive to Sacramento, wouldn't he have just waited in Nevada for the storm to pass - and driven to Sac?
A few days after that, he left his car in SCA. That's the opposite direction of a drive to Sacramento, and now he has no car.
Oh yes, hundreds! All those communities have their own webpage :banghead:
.. but just reading on LDS on wikipedia,
In all of my (considerable) years, living among the LDS, I've never known a strong LDS to enter a Fundy LDS group. They're not hidden; there's polygamists a few miles from my home. Whether he entered such a group or not, he'd still need a job, a car and all of the other accoutrements of life.
The polygamists (Kingstons, Jeffs, etc) do not proselytize nor do they solicit for new male members. They have an excess of men (lost boys). They consist of intermarried families. Their members are well-known.
The fundy groups are basically polygamists; how can a guy who can't meet even one "right girl", meet several - especially with no job, no car, no home.
Do you ever watch "Sister Wives"? My husband and son-in-law know Kody Brown (my daughter and son-in-law were invited to the wedding shown in the TV series).
If you live in Utah long enough, you know Fundamentalists, polygamists, LDS, and you learn the differences quickly.
Of course people are free to search Sacramento, and investigate FLDS. But are those logical directions?
Steven was known to seek warmth, rather than cold. A short trip to Sac is one thing; moving there (and leaving your stuff behind) is something else. Sacramento is much colder than St George.
As we've discussed over these many months:
After he disappeared, for 3-4 days, only two people called: his boss and his landlord. Several times each. We don't know the content of the calls, but the number of calls from one person, seemed to indicate someone was frantic to locate him.
