CO- Dylan Redwine, 13, Vallecito, 19 November 2012 - #38

If I were guilty, the last thing I would do would go on a TV program, period. It's too easy to say something to implicate yourself that LE could use to arrest and prosecute. I dunno, I would not do it. But that's just me. How many of you would go on a show like this if you were indeed guilty of harming and disappearing your child for selfish reasons??? IMO

Jodi Arias sought out a national TV show to tell her story and she's guilty as ever.

 

[ColdHands]

The pictures of the dogs on K-9 Forensics FB page are great! Any locals know where they might be, generally speaking?

 

[Seajay]

And I believe that would be the very nature of rumors - some pan out, many others don't. Some even grow legs because of the number of times they get repeated over and over again. IMO a rumor ending up in MSM still doesn't make it fact.

You got that right. I was on the Scanner Thread during the Christopher Dorner siege, and had the local news on about it as well and what they were reporting on the network TV stations was not anything like what was going on in the Scanner Thread. It was the first time I realized how wrong MSM can be. They make stuff up just to get the "scoop" and hope it pans out. IMO

You really have to be a sociopath to pull that off. Not saying some people aren't, and it's obvious I'm not or I'd think that was not a problem. Jodi admits killing the dude, it's just her story as to why is hinky as all get out.

From the start, I've believed the Father was involved in Dylan's disappearance, and after watching the few seconds of preview for next weeks show, I'm fully convinced he's Responsible.

The Mother has Zero Reasons for hiding or harming Dylan, She has nothing to gain making Dylan disappear.

For Mark Redwine to turn this around and Fault her, is telling me he's fully responsible for Dylan's Disappearance.

Just watching that few seconds of preview has caused so much hatred in the way i personally fill about that so called Father and i fully believe he's spiteful and Devious enough to have done the unthinkable to this innocent child.

Agreed. Elaine's heart-breaking pain and numbed shock is so evident in her interviews it makes me gasp and choke with tears.

Cluciano63, Shawn Hornbeck was "hidden" for years in spite of substantial media attention.

Well, if Dylan is being held by a predator, it is almost unbearable to think about Shawn H. said what he went through was "worse than death". Also, his being eleven when he was taken seems much younger than Dylan seems, IMO. To me, anyway.

I am not sure I can "hope" that Dylan is with a predator.

 

[mmmagique]

If I saw a show that is anything like that clip, I would take away from it that one bitter parent is taking revenge on another bitter parent and that it was none of my business. And that Dylan was fine someplace.

Why would you think he is fine? He doesn't appear to be. We can't ignore the kids just because we don't like the behaviour of the parent(s)

Because I would think if a parent went to so much trouble to "hide" a child, they must on some level want the child, and that any hostilities were toward the other parent.

True but when she sought the TV show out she was denying killing him and was telling the world "mark my words no jury will ever convict me" The "Ninjas" did it or whatever.

You have to be a narcissist. You have to have a big ego and believe that you've covered all the bases, and that you will "win". That's all. You don't have to be a sociopath to talk about and try to cover something bad you've done.

Perhaps...but it seems it would take a pretty hard heart to watch the other parent suffer so. This person (if there is one) imo, only thinks about his/her self. Everything else is secondary.

I do not believe in the "hiding" theory and never have. The parent would be gone as well, certainly by now. I just think that it is possible the impression from the DP show will be, for casual viewers, that this is an extremely amped-up custodial fight between parents and that one or the other knows he is safe and being cared for.

I do not believe this to be the case at all.

FWIW, Ben Ownby (kidnapped by same predator as Shawn) was 13. And Dylan was not a large 13 year old (mine is nearly 6 ft already).

But I agree that I am not sure I can "hope" that Dylan is with a predator. By the same token, at least then there would be a chance of finding him alive.

Apparently the lead in is from a local news broadcast. The promo for the Dr. Phil show:

All MOO

 

[Dee10]

I can't even imagine how difficult and perhaps grueling those two days (in particular) were. I'm sure I would be emotionally drained afterwards.

I think both Dr. Phil shows are going to be extremely difficult for all of us to watch, as we all care about this child.

Real question, do you think the viewers would not consider that the parent who supposedly had Dylan would not be able to take him out from under wraps? (If they did, they could be arrested and/or lose custody). I would think viewers would be smarter than that, but maybe not....

 

[scorekeeper]

Sorry, i didn't notice you had already posted this while i was watching the Dr Phil show, and i also posted the preview !!

LOL....I'm glad we heard the same thing!! :seeya:

 

[Seajay]

True but when she sought the TV show out she was denying killing him and was telling the world "mark my words no jury will ever convict me" The "Ninjas" did it or whatever.

Only recently even heard about her. I don't know what her story is or what she did or didn't do previously to being in the hot seat now. I'm really not following that case.

 

[scorekeeper]

Were they told they had to accuse and point fingers?
I know I was almost on a game show once when I lived in LA and backed out when they told me I would have to jump up and down and shriek

Sigh. And then the FB faithful posting things like, well he should be home, now, right, since the show is over? And those dogs will find him safe and alive. Of course they will.

Just feeling really lousy and cynical today. How was this show a good idea again?

BBM

Because millions of people will get to see Dylan???

And we have another chance to listen to Mark's story(ies)???

 

[findDylan]

In my opinion I think all cases of missing children should be treated the same. An amber alert needs to go out, period. It shouldn't matter if they are a runaway or their parents or fighting, or it was a stranger abduction. If people can not see past the parents fighting or accusing or whatever then they have the problem, then it is not about the child in the first place. They are just around for the drama. If they think "oh just another runaway" then they have the problem. Some Runaways are endangered, they may not think of the risks and dangers out there. IMO I feel if it is about the child you look past everything else and concentrate on the child.

This is my opinion and isn't referring any specific person or people. It is a general thought.
