I was thinking back this morning about all of the other home kidnapping cases, I have followed for many years here, and else where, involving small child victim.
I can't recall at the moment, one case before it was solved where the majority believed the child had really been abducted, even before the facts became known to anyone.
Through the years, in each of those cases, I always found myself each time in the small minority.
It's been extremely hard at times to support the grieving families among so many who did not, and are instead accusing them of killing their own abducted child or children.
I have become stronger over the years though to support families who have found themselves in this same situation who I felt were innocent because there was simply no factual evidence showing otherwise.
I have to admit, I've often wondered why that seemed to be the case consistently though, no matter which child had been abducted from inside of their home?
Those that followed Isa's case closely for all of these years, know I was one of the very few who supported the Celis family, even including SERGIO. Ha! Now that WAS hard. Ha
I'm sure many thought I had to be crazy to do so.
I know I may look at these kind of cases differently than most, and I do very much respect all others POVs, and how they wish do it.
But for me it's simple, each time these cases happen, I patiently wait for the facts, and evidence to come forward showing who the suspect truly happens to be. After that is known to all, there is plenty of time to give the worthless



suspects hell, which I do! Lol
I paid very close attention to the actual words said by the TPD shortly after Isa going missing, and they clearly said Isa had been ABDUCTED from her home. They never changed that. Never.
They knew they had the evidence all along showing them she had been abducted out of her bedroom window. But like in all cases, LE never divulges any of the evidence they have to the public, rightly so.
They arent in the PR business either. They, like so many others before them, let the innocent family members twist in the wind of 24/7 accusations, and to fend for themselves. I wish that wasnt the case, but it is.
Anyway, I wonder if the reason for placing premature blame on parents or grandparents in unsolved abduction cases at the time, is done because it makes the majority feel safer that it won't happen to their own children if the murderer is a family member of the murdered child? I could totally understand that reason.
For me though, I have researched child abductions/murder cases for decades now. The largest DOJ study to date includes 775 abducted, and murdered children cases where the suspect's relationship or lack of was known.
Those children who were kidnapped, and later found murdered the suspect was a total stranger to the child 44% of the time.
42% were kidnapped, and murdered by an acquaintance, such as a neighbor, casual friend or co worker known to the family.
Only around 13 or 14% of children who were kidnapped and later found murdered were killed by a parent of the child. They are the least likely group to do these kind of abductions where the child is murdered.
The number ONE motive for abducting, and murdering a young child was sexually motivated.
Most children were dead by the time the family found them missing.
So I always try to keep this in mind when a child has been kidnapped, and murdered.
Jmo though, and nothing more.
