Elisa Roberson Part 2: Flipping the Narrative

Description

On a Sunday evening in August 1989, 13-year-old Elisa Roberson left her home in Aransas Pass, Texas, to meet a friend at a local elementary school just a short walk away. Witnesses saw her along the way, and someone even reported seeing her enter a red or maroon car. But Elisa never made it to meet her friend. Her family later suspected that she might have been abducted by her mother's ex-boyfriend, Ralph, who had been abusive and threatened Elisa's mother when they ended their relationship. However, the police had their eyes on someone else, the father of the girl Elisa was walking to meet, who had a history of disturbing allegations made against him and a strange alibi. The investigation failed to uncover concrete evidence, and Elisa's case went cold. Years later, the case heated up again, and took a strange turn. 

The family is currently offering a $20,000 reward for any information regarding Elisa's disappearance. If you have any information, please contact the Aransas Pass Police Department at 361-758-5224, or reach out to the family and private investigator at missingelisa1989@gmail.com.

Couldn’t Ralph have had someone stand in for him and claim he was Ralph and get arrested at the border? Maybe it was a completely different person that was in the Mexican prison;not Ralph.

Maybe someone from the church had a red car. In the first episode she didn't go to church with the friend and instead went home. I don't know but this is a sad situation and I feel bad for the family.

Debbie sounds disturbed and is defending her father, “The lady doth protest too much, methinks. “

Polygraphs are such junk science. I read in an interview with a famous polygrapher that parents almost always fail because they feel guilty about what happened to their kids even if they had nothing to do with it. He also recounted this one case where he polygraphed a dude who did kill his son and passed with flying colors because he just didn't care. I trust palm reading about as much as I trust polygraphs.
