Thank you so much for finding these revealing images.
Is someone pulling my leg?
The various stories linked and posted here have really never made good sense to me. They're not concise and cohesive.
What was Summer doing the last time she was with her family?
Those planters and the surrounding grounds do not indicate any recent attention. Although the tomato plants do not appear to be suffering from drought as the others do.
When did Summer end up "gone"?
That poor dad used that word. The father is firmly stating she's gone and has been snatched. Not going to find her around here.
Why is the brother made to listen to his father's interview?
There's a reason for him standing beside his dad but I just haven't figured it out yet.

The area in TN where the family lives looks to be so lush and gorgeous. It's mountainous, with clear running creeks and canopied with lovely trees.
