Someone cremating or dismembering their child's body to dispose of the evidence isn't quite the same as garroting them to stage a murder. Although such a thing is unfathomable, I understand it to be entering a dissociative state for their own self-preservation. Not quite so in this scenario. If...

Looks to be a cut and dried case based on a certain suspect's track record and relationship with the husband. The real question is what did she do with Christopher? Would a woman scorned give the child away for adoption, or would she be much more likely to dispose of him?

The problem is that even if that sighting was credible, it was someone recalling it many, many years after the fact. It could well be that they did see Jason, but it wasn't on the day of his disappearance. And I'm someone who subscribes to the "making a pit stop" theory.

I read somewhere that drowning is among the leading causes of death of people with autism. I wouldn't be surprised if Gordie got lost and died of exposure somewhere, or tried to navigate a body of water and perished.

IMO, there's absolutely zero chance that Jason went off the grid and started a new life for himself. The circumstances don't fit and it would not be practicable. Definitely a large dose of wishful thinking fuelling that particular line of enquiry.

I don't believe Michael Turney can be re-tried for Alissa's murder, as per double-jeopardy laws.

Rabid dogs need putting down.

What's the presumed motive for Samantha's disappearance? Sexual attack? Hit and run?

I'm born and bred in the UK. It depends on the industry, but early finish Fridays are not unheard of, especially in the summer months.

If Andrew was being bullied or singled out, that would make him even more susceptible to a groomer imo. Of course, there are levels to bullying, and we don't know if it had any bearing on his disappearance. The bullying angle has been used to support the theory that Andrew travelled to London...

Ah yes, I think you are right. An easy mistake to make when Alissa as we know her has been frozen in time.

Back in the day, I received some VERY eye-opening information from one of Ali's old school friends. Let's just say, she said that Ali wasn't the sheltered kid that her mother made her out to be. Few teenagers are, to be honest. Of course, this was second-hand information, so take it for what you...

It would have to be extremely bad odds for Andrew to bunk off in London for the day and meet with foul play, notwithstanding the fact his body has never been found. Also, if Andrew just wanted to cut loose and go to London for the day, why not do it at the weekend? Why do it on a school day...

Imagine a scenario where you have to pray that someone's remains belong to your little sister just to find peace and closure. Sarah is such an emotionally strong person.

Although there's a good chance that Martin's abductor posed as an authority figure in order to accost him, this isn't an established fact.
