...."I do not think there were others involved in this. I think this was wholly TS. She didn't hand him off to anyone."
May I ask how you arrived at this conclusion?
I am astonished at the assumptions and analysis here.
Until 19 days ago, no one had ever heard of this family;
most readers have never been there, and know little of the geography.

Respectfully ; WS allows for theories , assumptions, analysis, and most importantly-- crime solving.
If it's in msm we can discuss it.
It's why many of us are here.

Many if not all members post
their opinions and should be perceived as such.
The person to last see Gannon has been proven to be lying when she left in her soon to be ex's truck with Gannon and returned without him.
LE have been clear that they do not dispute that she came back to the house without the boy.
Outside of that LE are searching areas that the vehicle gps would have pinged on.
I have no doubt they are not searching for a
'runaway'.
(More lies from the last person to see him.)
Some people think they are 'playing' LE and 'outsmarting' them.
Fortunately in this case that doesn't seem to be happening.
LE have been tight-lipped but their actions speak volumes.
I have faith that they are on the right track.
