Bingo.
So here's what I'm theorizing.....
1. LE has said virtually nothing substantive for public consumption aside from asserting that it was an isolated event and no stranger danger. If one takes those assertions at face value, the logical conclusion is that LE had evidence that the perp was known to the victim. Just HOW they came to that conclusion we would all like to know. But it seems to me that since school was back in session the following Monday with no additional security measures, police presence, armed guards, survellience camera installation, new sign-in, sign-out procedures, or anything of that nature, that LE knew they were not dealing with a random, opportunistic psychopath.
2. I think this also tells us that this was not a kidnapping for ransom. No ransom demand has been made, as far as we know. Additionally, I don't know what the statistics would show, but my guess is that kidnappings for ransom in this country are far rarer than kidnapping for more nefarious purposes and motivations. Perhaps Patsy Ramsey, if she were still alive, could have been instructive to us in these matters.
2. Recall that Kyron was styled at least for public consumption, a "Missing/Endangered" child until a couple of days ago when the case became a "Criminal Investigation". I find that quite odd.
3. It strikes me that the case of ANY 7 year old who has gone missing from school under the limited facts that have been fed to us would immediately be investigated under the worst case senario principle--that of a criminal investigation. If your 7 year old turned up missing from school would you consider them "Missing/Endangered"? "Missing/Endangered" for more than 10 days? No way. So why did LE continue to suggest to the public, through Press Conferences and Billboards, that Kyron was "Missing/Endangered". Did this "description" of the case allow them to follow and collect evidence that they might not have been able to aquire if the public thought this was a criminal investigation?
4. I, too, believe, that LE has a POI, and that a case is easier to prosecute with a body than without. (I'm so sorry to have written that.)
5. If LE believed that Kyron had left the school of his own volition and then met a bad end, his body would have been found by now.
6. The cat and mouse game is on.
7. And finally, if any of you have been following the Aubrey Sacco case--that of the 23 year old Colorado woman who is missing from a trek in Nepal--I found the following assessment of that case from a profiler to be absolutely fascinating. And I think a number of analogies can be drawn to Kyron's case.
