Found Deceased TN - Evelyn Boswell, 15 months, Sullivan County, 26 DEC 2019 *Arrests* #2

[MsBetsy]

MOO. Wow. I don't know if I've ever seen an interview like this with the mother of a missing child. I can't seem to get a feel for her at all. My thoughts:

• She's smiling a lot. Is that a nervous smile or a liar smile?
• Who is sitting next to her? She seems to be coached or influenced by that person.
• It's so hard for my mind to imagine a person doing this interview if everything was a lie. Is there some truth to what she's saying? She looked straight at the camera at the end talking to her mom saying it's gone on long enough. That seemed more real to me.
• The way she describes Evelyn is odd. Saying she's never been mean?? Saying she pulled her hair. Just odd .
• When talking about her family not being a cult she said it's not like we're kidnapping babies. That really was odd considering her baby has supposedly been kidnapped by her mother.

IMO I'm glad she gave this interview. She just gave LE a lot more information. I hope LE just says take us to Evelyn. I feel a break is coming very soon with Grandma coming back too.

MOO.

Well, according to her, LE are not taking her seriously and are not doing anything to find her so she told them she's going to look herself. I wonder if she's done that yet. Or anytime in the last two months for that matter.

Reflecting on TrapperKeepers post ^^^^, could it be possible that baby Evelyn has been given to another Gypsy family to raise?
Perhaps it was MB’s mother AB who arranged the exchange. I would think that MB is too young to know who to contact or how to go about arranging for another family to care for baby EB.
We must remember that unless we have direct knowledge on the beliefs of Gypsy’s, we are unaware of their culture.
My opinions only.

Yes, that would be entirely possible. In fact, almost common in the Romani community I grew up in. Especially so if there was a lot of turmoil or instability with the immediate family. Be that drugs, jail, housing, financial. Most times I'm aware of it happening personally it was for financial reasons or domestic issues and in the childs best interest. It's usually done temporarily until the primary caregiver can get back on their feet. I'm not saying that's what happened here because I really don't know. BUT I do know that this wouldn't be unheard of at all.

in the live youtube WS sessions Trish said we can discuss her.. so its been a bit confusing on who we can't and can sleuth

*edit* my spelling flew out the window apparently

I guess MB isn't familiar with the "boy who cried wolf" fable. If you continuously lie to people, they tend to stop taking you seriously.

@sillybilly Can you explain to me why the mom bashing is being allowed to continue NON STOP when she's not named a POI and police have said she's not accused of wrong doing ? I don't get it.

Bashing and discussing are two different things. Bashing is not allowed and should be Reported; discussion/speculation may or may not be allowed depending on the case itself.

Having said that, although I don't see that Tricia has made a thread specific post addressing Evelyn's mom, after watching Tricia's youtube about the case, I believe an exception is being made here because it is obvious something is fishy with MB's story as it has been presented. (Same as in the Gannon Stauch thread where stepmom's story seems wonky but no charges have been laid there either). Boils down to common sense and a lot of MB's story isn't adding up and doesn't make sense.

I'll double check with Tricia, but pretty sure this is the case.

Any more questions in this regard, please send a private message.

Thank you SillyBilly

A petition to the Tennessee Senator has more than 9,000 signatures saying it should be illegal to wait longer than a week to report a child missing.

“This situation is something that we would really have to look at to see what’s available legislatively and legally in Tennessee. We may already have laws that take care of that, we may already have rules and regulations from the various departments, children’s services. It’s worth taking another look at,” said Senator Crowe.

“For most parents, if their child is missing for a few hours you’ve got alarm bells going off, much less days,” said Senator Lundberg, “I think this is an anomaly, thank God it’s an anomaly, so I don’t think we need reporting laws in place.”

wow you'd think in a town that small if a missing child was wandering around and was mentioned on the TV the TBI's phone's would be ringing off the hook or even just a "silver camper" i mean come on

Who is sitting next to her?

Grandma probably, she had said that she is the one that has supported her thru this.

Wow this is strange. Why is she making statements that are so easily proven false by LE? She says they haven’t looked when indeed they have. Among other lies she has told. We’re getting a glimpse of what LE has been saying all along. Her stories don’t add up.

why wouldn’t you specifically tell them exactly where your baby was if there was a massive man hunt for her. Silver camper, certain campsite, specific town....like it just didn’t cross her mind to mention those things to TBI? Sounds legit

I wish the reporter would have asked about what went down with the sale of the car, and the circumstances around that.

 

[Weeobanite]

Ohh.. i think I might believe her. I think she thought her baby was safe with her mum and she got carried away being a carefree teenager.
I can see that she loves the baby and don’t think she would harm her.
I think she’s immature and being a teenager was more important than having the responsibility of being a full time mum.

LE went to multiple campgrounds in that area after the interview and there was no sign of Evelyn

My bad, I thought it was her grandma with her, the reporter stated it was her best friends mother, sorry about that!

Ok unpopular opinion here...I Believe this girl.
There's something about the way she speaks of her Mother that is familiar to Me.
I believe that she is scared of her mother...to a point...Dominion and submission if you will.
Aaaand Gypsies. They are a world unto their own and tight lipped. A very unique culture. I won't elaborate on them as I see that some have posted useful info already

I think this is a complex situation...obviously. I really hope the Matriarch tells the Truth.
I believe that Evelyn will come home.
Peace.
IMHO

Eta After typing this...I am laughing at My profile pic But that is for a diff case

 

[Weeobanite]

I completely agree. Let’s hope we are right.

i was just watching the interview again that i posted above and it ran through my mind for a second what if she is telling the truth

but man she didnt do herself any favors with the way she acted, the way she interviewed the intertwined stories, the weird photo posting

we would all owe her an apology if the poor thing is telling the real story and her family is that screwed up but where is the baby!! her mum is in prison you'd think she would tell where the baby is if they said they would grant her freedom in exchange for where she is right now

 

[Weeobanite]

When she talks about her mum threatening her the whole time she was gone.. does anyone think that grandma was fed up with Maggie partying and not taking responsibility for the baby so told her, if you don’t want to look after I’m gonna give her to somebody who will? Grandma is young too and doesn’t seem like your typical grandma. Maybe she was too interested in her own life as well and passed the baby on. Maybe Maggie didn’t believe she would do that.
