Police: Florida wife faked her own abduction

It sounds like the sort of romantic-mystery potboiler that keeps readers on the edge of their summer beach chairs: A strikingly pretty Florida housewife with a handsome husband and two beautiful young daughters is kidnapped, sexually assaulted, and held for $50,000 ransom. Or was she? Prosecutors contend the strange case of 37-year-old Quinn Gray, who claims she was abducted and held for four days in hellish captivity, is a cleverly planned ruse.

Strange case. If they have the pair on tape discussing how to carry out the plot, how could the husband still believe her? The wife does sound troubled, but troubled people can still do things in a coherent manner.

How are we supposed to have any idea whether she is guilty or not? We are missing vital information.

well...

She’s okay looking but I think the term “strikingly pretty” is more than a bit of a stretch.

Put some makeup on her though and I’ll give her a not guilty.

Some make up might help, but I don’t know. Se looks kind of manish to me. I gotta go with “guilty”. She may not be Helen Thomas guilty, but she ain’t getting probation either.

I think it might be a case of “tequilla makes her clothes fall off?”

A buddy and I got kidnapped for a whole day once back in the fourth grade. At least that is what we told our mom’s when the school said we didn’t show up that day. The gig was up when my mom, after speaking with the other mom, picked up the phone again and said “the first thing we need do is call the police so they can come over and question you so they can catch the guys that did this.”

The woman is a nutcase and she saw the Bosnian at a Gate gas station and their eyes met over the pumps...He was clearly a low-level hood, and she was a nutcase. Obviously, a marriage made in heaven.

The only mystery is why her husband hasn’t totally washed his hands. We get a lot of reporting about her here in FLorida, but not much about him, so I don’t know what the situation is.

That’s what I don’t get. It said her husband is standing by her, bankrolling her defense, still believes her. Apparently he is extremely wealthy. Why on earth would he still believe her unless there is info that police have not released? But if there is a 90-min tape of his wife and another man “in the throes of passion” and then discussing the plot...and he still believes her...well then, I guess he’ll wind up the real loser here.

Did I get it right, she’s running off with a gas station attendant?
