So, folks in the ward (and Chad’s family) knew about his remarriage, and heard he was living in town with his new wife?
Chad was on vacation with his adult kids over Thanksgiving, right after talking to LE on the 26th.
I wonder if CD decided to try to go make a “nice appearance“ with his family, or brief them on his marriage (is that when he said that Lori didn’t have any kids) or the coming end of the world, or garner their “support” on the next steps of his going into hiding - when I heard the lawyer statement about how Chad has the support of his children I feel like that was a threat/message/reminder to the kids that they’d better not say anything. But yeah, the family vacation would have been pre-planned - so maybe they were all about to leave town anyway - or at least Chad was. I wonder if the Vegas marriages were pre-planned as well.
