I don't understand why people are baffled at a motive for this case. Seems pretty obvious to me that the husband wanted to get rid of her so he wouldn't have to pay child support and share custody. And court-ordered child support is an unfortunate situation for everyone involved-- I mean, it's better than the old days, when the woman and child were just abandoned and left to fend for themselves- but it's also often very hard on the men who have a huge chunk of their paycheck taken out. And often times they just get screwed. So in trying to protect the women & children, it also sets up a scenario for women (&/or children) get murdered. And also murder/suicides.
There's really no easy answers in separations/divorces. But this is one case where the motive appears to be not mysterious at all.
However he moved away and he's been investigated, and interviewed since he moved- and comes off as pretty defensive and insists that he's innocent. There's just no proof. But think about it- the coincidence of her disappearing- WITH a former boyfriend- at EXACTLY the time she was separating from her husband, and wanting to take her son.. the possibility of something randomly happening for no reason (or for a different reasons) is pretty slim. Yes it's certainly possible something random happened, and I would feel sorry for him if her really WERE innocent, BUT......... come on.
