She may have been removed from Hope and Flower a different way, like in a suitcase. I find it highly suspicious that she left her son’s game in the middle, as if something urgent was going on only to end up going to a party? Why take her dog along? And all the while a federal investigation of her boss is underway. Why did her boss give her so many responsibilities without proper training? Was he using her for dubious business ? Very suspicious.

I hope that there will be a continued search on the Cliff property. Also, it might be a good idea to take up all the trash and move it out so it doesn’t sink into the water well. Kent did the same walk at the same time every weekend so if somebody wanted to hurt him, for whatever reason, they had opportunity every weekend like clockwork.  I feel like somebody took a advantage of his gullibility and lower IQ functioning. It might’ve started off just to make fun of him in some way and escalated

I am curious about the man that saw Daniel in the desert the day he came up missing. I am Curious what his background is and how they were able to interact in such a large desert space. How did they cross paths and why? I saw a picture of the accident scene and the clothes left behind looks to me staged. If he was delirious from the accident, I would’ve thought his clothes would’ve been tossed.  The coworker that was left behind at the worksite. Did they search his phone and movements

Sadly, it sounds like Aubrey‘s parents knows what happened to her. I feel that something happened to Aubrey the night she was last seen by her mother and her family knows where and what happened to her .

One of the most dangerous times for a woman is when she’s pregnant from a man who does not want her to have the baby he helped make! I feel she was murdered by the father of her baby and I hope there will be justice for Jasmine

I suppose these travelers had three different license plates to throw off people just for this one kidnapping, but I wonder if there was more to this. I also wonder how many other children came up missing in that same timeframe.

I hope they didn’t permanently rule out Chloe‘s boyfriend as a suspect. Passing a polygraph is not enough evidence to rule him out of any wrongdoing

Could be a possibility, he had her body in his vehicle, and he was going to dispose of her body the Monday after she disappeared.
