I do not think there should be any time period for reporting missing persons. People are not stupid they know if someone is not around and if its out of character or not, especially in this day and age with mobiles. If someone who is always on time is a half hour late and they wont answer their calls that to me is evidence enough. And say they do turn up 5 mins later ? So what, id rather waste 5 mins of police time than loose hours on a search for someone who really is missing.

Or, it could have been a burglary, and she returns to surprise the burglars, in which case they kill her. Or.....a million other things. Neighbors werent stalking her ffs.

What's wrong with lighting up a room with a *simile*? A good like or as can get the party started.

[@applejuicejunkie316]

@Vincent Cuttolo no one will get our jokes once the original post edits it. Lol. Here's a simile for the topic: I like up a room like a murder victim. What's your metaphor?

[@lovelyscorp79]

This is so crazy. Another woman disappeared like this too. Not even close to related to this case outside of that. But I say that to say this. They found out later it was a teenage boy that grew up with the girls older brother and lived across the street from her. He had also sexually assaulted her. So it would seem to me to disappear so close to home and not have a suspect means obviously it's someone close to home that no one subconsciously sees as a threat. Someone with a sexual deviancy and probably a young adult Male that knows her. This is so unfortunate that these trained police would rather believe in an alien abduction than the obvious. That one of their own Georgetown residents is a rapist and murderer. Wouldn't doubt for a second if it was an official's child.

[@sisu413]

jane doe - I thought the same thing! I also believe it's someone in that community that knew her and her family. There are just too many factors at play.

[@lovelyscorp79]

@@sisu413 exactly sis! Now tell me this....if two none police officials can put this together for a suspect. Why couldnt they? Cause they have no motivation or incentive for doing so. I hate the corruption of this world. And I hate that people blame some entity for the free will decisions that real life humans make daily in regards to taking a life they didnt create.

[@JamiylaMeade]

She left him because she knew that that "believing she's in heaven" line was some BS🤨🤨

[@sunfishdana]

And he wasn't treating her right.

[@amwlanier]

It's extremely common when a child dies/goes missing. Everyone grieves differently, and it sounds like the fathers obsession with finding his daughter - while completely justified- turned him into a bitter man towards his wife. He maybe felt like she "just didn't care about their daughter as much as him" if she was wanting to move on to the best of her ability. It's sad, but so many couples separate after losing a child. It completely changes your personality and you aren't always compatible with your spouse after that :(

In cases like these, relatives, boyfriends and ex-boyfriends are the first to be investigated. But as it turned out, none of this was done seriously. When the police say they have 100 people of interest they are saying that they are completely lost!

19:13 "Because who in their right mind would confess to a murder that they didn't do?" I'm not sure which is the bigger error of presumption in that question, the part where he gives that monster credit for being in his "right mind," or the part where it never occurred to him that maybe the reason the details sounded so plausible was because it was an actual description of somebody else's murder that either was unsolved or the victim's body was never even recovered from its watery grave.
