How do you know she wasn't raped and no broken bones?

Because her sister never stated that she had broken bones and officers never stated that she was possibly raped.Jmo

Because if she was raped than I doubt the officers would say Go Home For Thanksgiving And We Will Interview You More Later.

Especially if abductors and rapists are still out there.

You know, I'm not sure I want them to release more information at this time. I want, eventually, to understand why they aren't doing that.

I'm with you on that.

I've never been kidnapped and had the tar beaten out of me. Thank God. But if I had, I think being FOUND and reunited with my husband and kids (eventually) I'd be way more of an emotional trainwreck than I would be concerned about my physical injuries. I'm sure my emotional reaction would be more impactful to those observing than what my physical injuries might be.

moo.

I'm not questioning her emotional state at all. I'm sure she went through a very traumatic experience. But you asked why people were still discussing the accuracy of the report of her being severely beaten. IMO, that initial quote by the sheriff is one reason.

let's just drop the battered discussion.

Jmo.

She obviously had no broken bones and wasn't raped.

So let's be thankful and concentrate on the 2 perps or the why and how. Jmo

LE hasn't disclosed to the public that she wasn't SA so we don't know that. I pray she wasn't, but we just don't know that yet.

I disagree. I think it's standard protocol for investigators to interview victims of violent crime repeatedly after the initial crime has been discovered. In fact, I've seen the statement a countless number of times. Sometimes they go back daily, sometimes they give them some time with family, etc. Obviously every jurisdiction handles it a little differently but I found zero red flags about what the sheriff said.

moo.

I also have seen that after a trauma, memories come back slowly. It's good to get as much as possible right off, but time is a way to get out some details that may have been suppressed, IMO

:cow:

The thing is, Sherri would know all that. That shouldn't be up for people to ponder and question. She knows all this information, where she was dropped off, about how long before people stopped to help her, about how far she traveled. She's not a 2 year old lost in the woods, where you just kind of have to wonder what happened.

LE knows all this stuff, or should, and should get this out to the public IMHO.

LE said in the press conference that they have sensitive information related to this case, that they were not releasing to the public. Don't you think there is good reason for that? I'm going to go with my gut and trust their judgement. They know more than they're letting on IMO.

Cases like Rachel Mattice and others do make people skeptical.

But it is our job to nod Okay until something says different.

So let's leave the Hinky Meters at the door for now. Jmo.

We're all Hinky Meter Professionals, that's why we're here. But thanks Dex. Good to see you on this case even if I disagree with much of what you're saying :) (although this one I agree with 100%)

Yes my friend. Much love and no arguments here.

Sherri may have been so traumatized that LE decided to wait a bit before questioning her again. For all we know they may have already done that. JMO

The 'heavily battered' was just a non-official initial assessment by an officer, taken at the side of a freeway at night. We can take from that that she APPEARED to be heavily battered, to at least one officer, under the given circumstances. THAT'S IT.

Your initial question was, " I can't understand why this is still a question for some people." Maybe I misunderstood the question... we seem to be agreeing that the extent of her injuries are completely unknown.

I respectfully disagree. If anyone can assess someone who has been heavily battered it is police officers who unfortunately deal with it and see it on a regular basis. They also have cameras in their police cars for this very type of crime documenting the severity of the battery the victims sustained. They testify in court by testifying to what they observed concerning the victim's physical condition and their emotional condition. I totally believe the CHP officer saw a woman who had been heavily battered when he saw Sherri.

Police officers carry excellent flashlights and they also have lights inside of their police cars. It wasn't like they were out there with no way to see clearly someone's injuries. She could have been beaten horrifically and still would be released from the hospital if she was fortunate enough to not have any broken bones or damage to any of her organs.

We do know she was battered severely enough that she was treated at an undisclosed hospital. We do not know how long she was there and what was done during that time. What we do NOT know are the areas she sustained battering injuries. I can only guess, but I would think the injuries she sustained left her with black and blue bruises and maybe even contusions in the area of her head/face and arms but they could cover other areas as well.

Imo.

If she was raped.

Then the police wouldn't have said that they will simply follow up with her later without letting people know that a rapist is still out there. Jmo

I actually first put the marker on the east side of I5 because that was where I thought I'd identified the spot from video. One video shows a crime scene marker with the number 8 on it, left at the scene. I was told by someone who knows the area it would have been at the west side, so I moved it there last night.

Should I move it back to the east?

Thanks for being so diligent... I think she was found on the northbound (east) side.
 
  • #854
Thanks Mom. Just a slight change ... CHP advised she was "heavily battered".
Hi, I'm wondering if CHP could have been describing her mental status as heavily battered?
I've been wondering for a while also, if the captors really let her go, or if they were just playing a game with her and didn't expect she would make it to the highway

LE is so ridiculous here. They want people to call them if they see Hispanic women in a dark SUV. No other details. I guess they don't care that description is so vague that the tips they will get will almost certainly be useless and innocent people will be profiled. SO people in the area shouldn't be afraid because this was an "isolated incident". WTF does that mean? There are kidnappers on the loose and people shouldn't be scared? I can only assume LE knows this was not a random kidnapping for that to make the least bit of sense.

A reminder to all our new posters:

It is against our rules to tell another poster how to post or to tell them to quit posting.

The cases on Websleuths are not about what you think another poster should do. If you don't like what someone says ignore them or block them.

Thank you,
Tricia

There where rapists out there before this case and there will be rapists out there after this case has ended. I don't think that kind of information has to be released at this time to protect the public. JMO

LE has even said they were going to give Sherri time to be reunited with her family before they talked to her again. That has been in so many articles now for days.

It is very common when a victim has been abducted for the police to give them several days to reunite with their loved ones. LE knows the best thing for Sherri since she was found is to be around only those who love her. LE said they would be talking with Sherri in the coming days. I imagine they will come out to her home tomorrow since the holiday weekend will be over, and speak with her there since she would feel more relaxed inside of her own home.

You are right, Ranch, the police did say Sherri was very emotionally upset when found. I imagine she was crying inconsolably and was hysterical.

Agree. They just mention 2 women and no real indications that this was sexualy or rapely related.

I think that LE gave her time because the main investigators were more worried about the Thanksgiving holidays. Jmo


They stopped searches fairly quickly.

Which sounds like they knew something.
