Is he the one with or without hair?

With hair, hands behind his back.

Wow.

Gosh I hope they've found her.

 

[LietKynes]

This has always been a leading theory for me as well. Shades of Kelsie Schelling’s case, there are so many similarities imo including Kelsie going to meet him.

So maybe this, um, man didn’t want to be a dad.

Ita.
Always wondered if pregnancy was a possibility.
Also -- LE wouldn't have been able to get a search warrant without some tangible link between AA and Kenzie.
Good to see there are more arrests.
Justice is coming.

I hope she is alive somewhere.
Good god, I cannot imagine what her family is going through. Unspeakable.

Two in custody in connection with MacKenzie Lueck case; large police presence seen at address on West Temple

WHOA.

That is one intense photo.

i thought the same thing...very unsettling. why would so many SWAT members be needed to arrest 2 people? That's 5 people just for the one guy in blue.

 

[Karebear20]

Looks like

Looks like him. Set him free just so they can make a big show to get him the next day. Lol

That’s a little uncalled for. They didn’t have enough to hold him. Usually in cases like this there are other reasons to hold a person like parole violations or other unrelated warrants. They didn’t let him walk for a show. Much respect to SLC LE for how they have handled this case.

Thinking contractors are not in Army uniform

There are many people out there wearing military uniforms they never earned. See Stolen Valor. It’s not uncommon.

What bugged me about his resume was that you’d think he would capitalize both the U and the S instead of Us Army. In my mind, someone who served wouldn’t make that mistake. MOO

 

[mks762]

so how did they know? and they were taken outside, not inside an apartment - plus, the SWAT arrest is so close to the press conference - hmmmm

Can't remember exactly which case but I definitely remember at least one case where there was a PC going on while an arrest was being made. It kept the media's attention off of it while it was happening and it kept everyone away from the scene because they were all at the PC, not a bad idea really

Confirmed it is related.

Hallelujah!

2. White male doesn’t look like the picture of the last review in the Airbnb .

Anybody think there was video when the prior guest came to pick up belongings as quoted in article earlier?

That white male looked youngish to me?

 

[ksmith3271]

The white male arrested, does not look familiar to me.

Many comments on the news post that this is related to a robbery and not ML. No idea. Wish they would clarify.

 

[momoftwocrazies]

Good morning. I’ve tried to go back and read this thread to catch up and I’m so confused, it’s all over the place. I saw the swat pic. Other than that, please catch me up. Shannan Watts? Cameras? Huh?!?!

Could he be the guy who posted the review? I thought that was determined to be June 9 iirc???

 

[doyoulovemepfg]

Praying for Kenzie's friends and family, and for the safety of all officers and investigators involved. I hope this is the break that solves it.

 

[Inthedetails]

Also interesting that they have taken TWO people into custody. My more familiar with LE friends on this thread, is there a specific reason they would send a SWAT team to get these two as opposed to some regular officers?

My guess is because of the amount of ammo they found in the house, they might suspect he is armed. Hunch only.

He has the same thick, black hair as the guy who left the disturbing review on the airbnb review.

Not a chance that this is the case here imo

But I think that's exactly why people focus on the risky behavior. It's scary to think predators are out there, so we rationalize and try to make ourselves feel safer by looking at the risky behavior that led to the victimization. Having said that, I still lock my doors at night, don't go to isolated ATMs at a late hour, etc. to reduce risk. However, when I was a young, single woman I took many risks and felt I was invincible. That's what young people do. Most of us were just lucky that we squeaked out of those situations in one piece. Others are not so lucky.

Exactly, and I feel the same way about myself <3. I wish we would turn the narrative on the perpetrator and work on preventing these things from happening. Focus our speculation on the monster, not the victim.
