Hiya! Can't stay long but I wanted to put these thoughts out there before I forget them.
I've been pretty open about my gravitating to the theories that indicate Steven is alive. I'm sure we all agree that would be the best possible outcome here - no matter our own opinions regarding what has happened to him.
That being said, I've forced myself to really examine the other possibilities and look at them honestly.
Lured/Harmed: What I just can't grasp here is motive. Steven didn't have any money to speak of (to our knowledge), so he wouldn't make a good robbery prospect. His car was abandoned and so it would seem they didn't want that either. Did he have something else of value we don't know about? Seems unlikely to me, based on his circumstances at the time. And why lure a gullible guy all the way down from Utah? Speaking from personal experience, I know we have plenty of gullible guys right here in Vegas. Did he anger someone to the point of murder? How? He sounds like a pretty harmless, easy-going guy. What would the motive be?
Suicide: Again, why come all the way to Vegas for that? And if he had come for that purpose, where is he? And why did he need his passport for that?
In support of his just taking off....he's in a dead-end, low paying job, no wife, no children, church-friends only (it seems - and maybe not very close), behind on rent, possibly embarrassed by financial situation, maybe wants to start over?
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
