[Rant starts. Feel free to skip this.]
I wish I could erase the phrase "in the wrong place at the wrong time" from the English language because it's so often applied to the WRONG person--ie. the victim. Maybe, because I've heard it said and seen it written so often during the last few months, I'm over-reacting.
IMO, most times victims have been doing what is right for them, at the right time to be doing such things, and in the right place for doing those things.
Getting a hamburger at MickyDs at supper time before putting gas in your car at a gas station is being in the right place at the right time doing the appropriate thing.
Getting a hamburger in a sleazy strip joint at 3:00 in the morning before siphoning gas from a police car would be the wrong time and the wrong place, and totally inappropriate to boot.
JMO, but the PERP is usually the one out of place and will, also IMHO, ALWAYS be doing the WRONG thing at ANY time.
It seems to me that, sadly, any place at any time can become wrong when a predator is added into the mix. And, over that, a victim has no control.

I hope AM's family continues to receive such compassionate support from their friends and neighbours as I've seen demonstrated in this thread.
