I just want to add one quick thing here, because it has been bothering me. I know there were rumors these two were hiding out on a commune (turned out to not be true). I was born and raised on a commune. We would never, ever have hidden people out who were breaking the law, and we most certainly would not have helped a man who kidnapped a child. I don't know what people think of communes, but the one I was on was full of moms. People who live on communes want to be left alone, and they definitely do not want illegal activity calling attention to the place. Communes are not places for fugitives to get help. You cannot just "show up" on a commune with zero connection to anyone there and not be viewed with suspicion.
When I lived on the commune, an 18 year old who lived there started bringing his 14 year old girlfriend around. A lot of people were very concerned about this, but then they realized that 14 was legal age of consent in our state, and so they decided all they could do was talk to the guy about it.
