Well, that sure cancels out any idea of an accidental fall into the water, or a sudden alligator attack. So something has ruled that out for investigators.
True, but it does seem that with people like the BTK killer, the Long Island serial killer, the Delphi killer, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, and many others: wives, children , family members, coworkers, attorneys, psychiatrists always claimed they never had a clue about what was going on.
Do you think an ex-con happened randomly upon him, or was part of a hookup between them?
I think about this case often. The statement from LE tells me they have nothing substantial at this point. Anyone who had seen something or heard something that night has probably already given that info to LE. The best we can hope for is someone tells someone else about what they did and then that person is responsible enough to report it to LE. I have a hard time believing someone was out driving around that night and grabbed Caleb for some nefarious reason. Caleb had a reason for going out late that night. He had just walked the dog and ordered food from Uber Eats. At that point he should have been done for the night. But no, he goes out again. Was it to meet the Uber driver? I think more likely it was to meet someone else. He sure seemed to display a lot of nervous energy that night indicating his anticipation of getting together with someone. The meeting however was not what Caleb expected. As a result, he is probably no longer with us. LE has pretty much come to the conclusion that Caleb is a victim of foul play.
But his father at this point must understand he’s gone. I feel for him.
The only thing which annoys me is law enforcement assuming that the killer had to have told someone. I think it’s unlikely that they would, for obvious reasons.
Thank you clarifying that it was Caleb’s Instagram account that appeared to be active and Welcome to Websleuths!!!!
I could see why this would be alarming and also hope-inspiring. Sad that it wasn’t a sign that he is alive, but thank you for sharing this information.
One can only hope that at some point the person responsible for Caleb’s disappearance will tell a spouse, friend, family member who will likely stay quiet until they feel safe to reveal the secret. Maybe the person responsible will be incarcerated and tell a cellmate. Or even get drunk one night and let it slip out. All these will take time but at this point time and patience are required in solving this mystery.
Exactly! People who 'hook-up' for a few hours are secretive by nature anyway.
