I’ve been following Caleb’s case, started following a little late, since about a few weeks after he was reported missing. Still getting caught up on reading the posts and like y’all been pondering the possibilities of what could’ve happened to Caleb. Decided to take a break from reading to post some of my thoughts.
A planned hookup that ended up going sideways imo is plausible, but where I too get stuck with this theory is I’d think LE would’ve been able to trace back via phone digital forensics and figured out what happened by now or at least got a solid lead via digital trail.
Another theory I’ve been wondering about and not sure has already been discussed, I might have missed it during some speed reading while trying to get caught up here, is if Caleb possibly had a stalker? Perhaps someone that lives and/or works at the apartment complex who’s been watching his movements and/or if he possibly had an online stalker. Someone that lives or works at the complex could be doing both I suppose-stalking/watching his movements around the complex and stalking him online as well. And Caleb either doesn’t know/has never met this person that possibly had developed an unhealthy attachment/fixation on him. Or, it could be someone he has met before that lives or works at the complex and whom Caleb interacted with in the past in some form. Possibly ran into some kind of predicament or had trouble with this person in the past for some reason i.e., perhaps Caleb rejected a date/proposition from this person and they were angry with him for rejecting them and been watching/stalking him ever since waiting for an opportunity to abduct Caleb and take revenge against him because they can’t handle rejection. It’s my understanding the complex’s surveillance cameras weren’t in working order which is really too bad and makes this mystery even harder to solve.
At any rate, whether a person who lives or works at the complex was known or unknown to Caleb, they could have been stalking him waiting watching for an opportunity and kidnapped him under the cover of darkness in the early morning hour when not a lot of people are up and about? possibly forced Caleb into vehicle at gunpoint, or via some other type of weapon, or lured/coerced him into their vehicle under guise of ?, and took him back to their apartment or took him to some other location and is either holding him hostage (less likely), or had their way with him and killed him either accidentally or intentionally and hid his body somewhere? But where?? Hauling away and hiding a body is an arduous task to say the least, but as we know, plenty of perps manage to to it by various means.
At any rate, I really don’t think Caleb is voluntarily missing and frankly none of the other scenarios are good, except if someone is holding him hostage somewhere at least he’d still be alive but I don’t think that’s the case, unfortunately.
A random abduction, as in, some predator out driving around in the wee hours looking for prey though not completely out of the realm of possibility, is an outlier for me.
I just think that if this is foul play (which I’m leaning towards) and wasn’t a planned hookup that ended up going sideways,
that the answer lies at or very near to that apartment complex.
It’s just a gut feeling that keeps gnawing at me that either a resident of, or a worker at that complex is involved. I could be totally wrong, wouldn’t be the first time lol. It’s hard because not a whole lot to go on, but I continue to hope LE is making progress behind the scenes and will hopefully provide an update soon.
Very sad and perplexing case, a parent’s worst nightmare for sure.
My heart goes out to Caleb’s parents and loved ones. Hope he’s found soon.
