AMBER ALERT TN - Summer Moon-Utah Wells, 5, Rogersville, 15 Jun 2021 #2

JMO - a Gut Feel

With the intense efforts of the ground searches around the property, it seems they are leaning toward something happened on foot or via woods if Summer did not wander off on her own.

If one of the trail cams or pieces of surveillance footage came from a home near the end of the driveway, TBI/Investigators would know when vehicles were near the driveway.

6 days … ugg.

Megan Boswell was in a similar, nearby county. Remember when she claimed that she could not take a polygraph because she was pregnant? One of her many lies in that case. At the time they said that local LE did not even have that ability — that an outside source must be brought in (TBI, FBI?). Possibly the same scenario exist in Hawkins County.

It may not be standard procedure immediately, but instead something they bring in as needed. In cases like this it could definitely be helpful to rule out foul play so that investigations can move in other directions.

Thank you for your insightful response. That's interesting..

Did they name any POIs? I'm working and can't watch the presser.

No

I've seen nearby abandoned cars mentioned. I haven't been able to follow this post by post or even page by page. Does anyone here recall hearing if they have searched all of those cars, including the trunks? Also any abandoned freezer or refrigerators?

This was not discussed.

Can you give me a link? I'm not following what you mean. TIA.

It was said at the PC....the circumstances surrounding Summer's disappearance are still not clear. I was hoping they'd have the facts now, as there are various versions.

ROGERSVILLE – It's been almost one week since 5-year-old Summer Wells disappeared from her Hawkins County home, and despite an exhaustive search and investigation, rescuers have yet to find any concrete clues to her whereabouts.

Wells said he believes she may have been taken by human traffickers who became aware of her on social media.

On Monday, Summer's father, Donald Wells, told the Times News he has thought his daughter was taken from the area from day one.

During his conversation with the Times News, Wells, who is a drywaller, also said he went back to work Monday.

He described his experience going back to church for the first time Saturday since Summer was taken, and he also stated that his wife has been very upset by the way she has been portrayed in social media posts. Wells said his bride, Candus Wells, has monitored social media looking for clues.

Police say Summer walked away from her home the evening of June 15 around 6:30 p.m.

I’m sure the FBI/BAU are providing their experts in interviewing individuals present when Summer disappeared. The timeline needs to be refined if there’s any hope of bringing this child home.

This feels like an appropriate time to deliver a friendly WS Mama Bear reminder to everyone. Please remember to be good to yourself and your emotional well-being. Not a single thing will change for this child, good or bad, if you step away from the internet for a little mental balance check. Go outside and looks at something beautiful , take a bubble bath , play with your kids or your pets or whatever it is that keeps you emotionally centered. Force yourself to do it if you have to, but please do it.

(Said with nothing but love for my WS family. )

I feel bad knowing the mom is monitoring social media, some of those people have been downright brutal.

That presser was not encouraging. The fact that LE is saying the circumstances surrounding Summer's disappearance is still not clear, after 6 days of investigation...that just creams to me that someone isn't providing clear, concise, believable information.

(((((Summer)))))

BINGO!

 

[Lusitana]

How many people live in the home? Is it just the parents and the children? Was someone visiting them when she went missing? I think there's a lot we don't know about regarding the home life.

 

[Edinlass]

Human trafficking is a reach though eh. I wouldn’t automatically come to that conclusion if god forbid my child went missing..

 

[Tealgrove]

It was said at the PC....the circumstances surrounding Summer's disappearance are still not clear. I was hoping they'd have the facts now, as there are various versions.

I think that was worded as ambiguously as possible. A lot was said without saying it.

They don’t believe she was abducted. They continue to search for her and will continue to search for her until she’s found however, the family has stated to LE that she wouldn’t leave the yard.

So if she wasn’t abducted, and wouldn’t leave the yard to get lost in the woods, where does that leave us?

I wonder if he was trying to say check again just in case someone waited to move her.

I'm wondering the same

So, surely if one parent was given a 'lie detector' or polygraph, the other parent would do so? It's just bugging me for some reason...

They don’t have to take it if they don’t want to.
