Much of that was MOO..as to why he had not stated that Lina was abducted.

Search Continues For Missing Texas 3-Year-Old Lina Khil
From December 20th
The FBI's Child Abduction Rapid Deployment has been called in to assist, even though it is not yet considered an abduction, McManus said.
San Antonio police treating 3-year-old's disappearance as a missing person case, not an abduction
From last Friday;
“We are not treating this as an abduction right now," San Antonio Police Chief William McManus said Wednesday afternoon. "We are treating it as a missing person. The longer the time lapses, the less hopeful we become.”
On Friday, McManus provided more context, saying there's no potential abduction suspect authorities are currently searching for but otherwise using the resources which would be used in an abduction investigation.

If she was abducted: She is likely not very far.
Unfortunately, the survival rate is not good.
It could have been someone she knew or recognized.

I heard an interesting hypothetical scenario from an Afghan woman:
In Afghanistan people who have disputes with people sometimes "take one of their kids" temporarily. After a few days, they return the kid unharmed. (Afghanistan is sort of a "lawless place" and people take matters into their own hands). She's afraid if this has happened, the family that has Lina is now freaking out because all of the police presence. They feel they can't return Lina. In Afghanistan, this is not considered a crime. However all of a sudden these people are bombarded with signs, heavy police presence and Lina's picture everywhere.
Maybe law enforcement is looking into this option and trying to keep accusations low key. They may not want the "kidnappers" to freak out even more and harm Lina.
It would be great and awesome if Lina was "temporarily being kept with a family"....
I kinda doubt and so does she...but she said that does happen over there....
It is not really considered a crime in Afghanistan.
It's just a different culture
No link...
Just an "outside the box scenario"
I'm not saying this is what happened to Lina, but you never know........
