I will just preface this by saying this is all my opinion. I find it terribly sad that some are defending what this "man" and his GF have done. According to the family and supporters, if you have been the victim of SA you can't be a parent, if you have ever smoked weed you can't be a parent, if you have taken medication and sought therapy you can't be a parent. If their allegations were true, the only course of action that falls under good intentions would have been to report it and trust the law. No proof has been shown that they ever did that. What there is proof of, is that an innocent little girl has been kidnapped, her world upended, and put in what is truly imminent danger. When the law catches up with them, and they will, how is someone who appears to be incredibly immature and rash going to react? I doubt the first thought will be about the poor child. And the GF? Well she choose the most cruel and heartless way to go missing she could find. She could have just left a note and been gone. But no, she choose to waste(I don't even want to imagine how much the trip cost)a lot of her parents money, and then go on to create panic and terror and then sorrow on her poor parents. Is this something a caring person would do to their own family? And now you want to trust her with a tiny child that isn't even family?
