Just a few thoughts from me... I've been following the case, and I can't remember where I first heard about it but it really bothers me that here in the Houston area, the papers (Houston Chronicle) and news are not covering Hailey's case at all. If she has run away (which, IMO, isn't what happened but it's still a legit possibility) she could very well have come this way, and if her face were on the front page of the paper or the news, it could help get her home. Which leads me to my next thought, which is, that poor child. She tried to ask for help and wasn't taken seriously enough by the adults in her life (IMO) who all had their own (BIG) issues and were NOT providing an attentive, safe or loving environment for her. If she did run away, I would completely understand WHY!
This case makes me so sad.
I think Billie has got her priorities screwed up big time, and I believe that time will tell that SA and she were involved. BD is my age, and if I were dating a guy who was as immature and messed up as SA is (and based on photos and videos, yes, he is an immature and certainly not law abiding individual) I most certainly would NOT subject my children to being around him. Talk about your horrible role models. It all makes me want to scream.
Last but not least, and on a lighter note, even after living in TX for the last two years, I've never heard the word "seen" misused in a sentence as often as I have during the interviews on this case.
JMHO, and being silly too.
Bless all you WSers for your love and care of Hailey. I hope that wherever she is right now she knows how much we all care.
