If RG got into another vehicle on his own or by force, that would lower the odds on the suicide scenario. It raises them on abduction. Disposing of the laptop and hard drive in the river pretty much rules out that what was on the hard drive was mundane and unimportant. I'm still hung up on the cigarette ash and smell in the mini. Wondering if it could have been an unknown actor searching the mini looking for the computer?
Seems possible. If someone kidnapped Ray, others probably stayed behind to search his car, etc. JJ disagrees, but on the podcast web site, there digital copies of a LE report on searching his car. It said there was only 1 fingerprint inside the entire car. There were marks consistent with someone having wiped down the interior. No prints on the steering wheel or any of the places you'd expect to find them.
