does it appear as though TBI believe she is still actually alive, based upon above tweets?
I'm starting to think that maybe they do.
That means an abduction is the most likely cause?
I'm asking, not telling.

I think like many extended missing persons cases this one is being handled as if either possibility is possible. murdered close to home, or alive and abducted. Without anything to lead in one direction or another both MUST be investigated just as strenuously

I agree. If Summer were an adult, it would be much easier to reasonably conclude that she was deceased. Lack of banking activity, didn't show for work, lack of social media use, etc. A sudden change in normal, every day routines, all suddenly stopping on the same day, that we always see with adults that go missing, and end up found deceased. But because she was so little, none of that applies, and makes it all the more frustrating.

Although I tend to lean toward her being deceased and probably right there in those woods, hidden away under thick brush or a fallen tree. Probably much further away from the house than any of the experts assumed she'd be.

It's probably super accurate, turned out looking a lot like her mother.

Candace was quite beautiful when she was younger, so yes.

I know that they use the parents' photos to help with the age progression....but wow does she look like her mom in this.

I don't know if saying they want to find her means they believe she is alive. I am sure they are investigating every lead, no matter where it may take them.

He has made the comments about Summer being a daddy's girl before. I haven't gotten the idea that he is competing with Candus. Kids can go through phases where they are more attached to one than the other. In a house full of boys, she also seemed to have a tomboy nature and might have just wanted to do what dad was doing.

My daughter is a 'daddy's girl' too. But if she went missing, presumed dead and my husband said publicly " “Me and her were way closer than her and Katy..." I would be so sad and hurt. WHY say something so hurtful towards your grieving wife?

Especially when he has a history of saying some borderline inappropriate stuff about his littler girl anyway, how she needed to sleep and cuddle with him every night in bed. etc

If my husband said such a thing about my missing daughter I would be devastated. It’s like salt in the wound and I’m *not* going to give DW a pass for saying a hurtful comment.

Not that I'm giving DW any sort of a pass on this, because I agree with you 100%, but I do have to wonder if he isn't in some way developmentally challenged and doesn't realize this is a blatantly hurtful thing to say. I haven't followed the case closely enough to know if he was ever confirmed to have any sort of disability like that, so I'm just guessing.

I don't think he has a disability. I think he has shown himself to be mean to his wife, in many instances I know of. That's where his DV history comes from. And he has been on video being very rude and hurtful towards her before.

Interesting photo... she looks a little older than seven. Maybe an additional photo would be helpful, one of her smiling with some of her teeth missing, just because that is such a common age to lose baby teeth.

<moo>

"News Channel 11 spoke with Leemie Kahng-Sofer, the director of case management for the NCMEC, who said the creation of a photo like Summer’s is a process that requires multiple references."


“We try to collect as much as possible of what’s called reference photos, and although ideally, these are photos of the parents at the time or at the age that the child is missing currently, really any family photos, any sibling photos, any parent photos at whatever age is very helpful,” Kahng-Sofer said.

"Several programs are used to create the images, but she said it’s not an exact science and more of an estimation. According to Kahng-Sofer, it’s a process that usually takes about eight hours to complete."

TBI releases age-progressed photo of Summer Wells

"The TBI has said there’s no evidence of Summer being abducted, but her father has a theory of his own."

“What we think, that this is some kind of a professional situation that took her and had probably been watching for a while,” he said.

His theories don’t stop there, however.

“She’s obviously not in school anywhere, or there’s no record of her anywhere. So, she’s either you know, in someone’s basement, deceased, or we just don’t know- or in another country,” he said. “It’s fairly easy to get anything out of the country in my opinion. It’s not easy to get in the country, but it is easy to get out.”
