Seriously we get the picture though surely - MR is the kind of person who is dealing with this particularly horrible stressful event by holing up inside. He's a man who lives on his own and guilty or not, he wouldn't be trusting too many people right now IMO. His every word and expression has been picked apart and slammed so far. The cigarette guy just happens to be the local that particular reported decided to give a couple of lines to in that article. Doesn't anyone think we would be reading about it in bold headlines if reporters were getting lots of negative quotes from locals about MR? Honestly I read that comment and thought - yes... he probably looks gaunt and sick with worry and is probably sitting at home chain smoking and hoping for good news too.
Like I said in my post
I can hear the response already, "He just can't win no matter what."
And I'd love to hear some unbiased parties, not associated with MR or ER, come out and talk about the wonderful relationship MR has with Dylan, how great MR is with his son, ..something like that.
I'm pretty sure if we were hearing negative things about MR in those big bold headlines from local reporters, some folks would have a meltdown at the finger-pointing.
I think the community is staying silent both ways in the MSM regarding MR. I think we WOULD hear glowing, wonderful, rave reviews about him more so than bashing of him.
I think when the family friend was on NG and she was asked about MR's potential involvement or what she thought happened to Dylan her stumped, evasive, somewhat silent answer summed up that people in the area are just looking for Dylan and aren't paying MR much attention.
I think the locals are probably going pretty darn crazy that this case is so incredibly hush-hush, whether MR is involved or not, because this precious boy is missing and LE is either sitting on a potential POI or they have no idea whatsoever what transpired.
I think they're walking on eggshells and I think that the family and community are being kept in the dark, for what reason, I'm not sure, but I don't see how any of it is helping Dylan.
And I think that if MR has any awareness of himself and this situation, he would probably realize that scruntiny of someone in his position is part of the process, he hasn't necessarily done himself favors, LE isn't necessarily doing him any favors, but in the grand scheme of things so long as LE is doing their job .. F everyone else since his son is the only thing that matters.
