I hope they haven't shipped her somewhere into white slavery

I've been worried about something like this or kidnapping for export to a foreign country for who knows what purpose.

Looks like the police are playing their cards really close to get the group and the top people. Wonder if the push on Edmonds was for a needed piece of evidence to take action on the others?

I have no idea why .. just that this is the oddest case I have heard of

I did hear there was an attempted kidnapping in this neighborhood a couple years ago .. and Fox News did mention that he was cought trying to break into a home near by last year .. not sure if there is any relationsip to it all

Thanks. It's amazing that someone of Ricci's "character" can find employment working in such a home. Caveat Emptor, big time.

Isn't this case bizarre enough and hasn't the family been through enough without you making stuff up out of thin air?

MY DEEPEST Apologies Jolly Green, That was not at all my intention, I was going biased by stories last week, and also trying to find a reason of hope that she could still be alive.

Please This is an emotional case, I was going by the News stories I heard, I was not "finger pointing", just asking a question.

No, Ricci does not look like the type to wear a polo shirt and that English style golf cap. He lives in a trailer, was wearing a white t-shirt in the photo, and had a straggly mustache.

Personally, if this lead has merit, it sounds more like a couple of low-IQ types getting the hots for a pretty little blonde girl, and doing whatever they wanted with her.

It would have been easier to grab her off the street. Why go to all of the trouble of breaking into the house and possibly being caught?

R9,

I don't know why anyone would do that, I don't know why anyone would kidnap her in the first place. I read on the first part of the thread that it had to do with a ransom, I was going by that. I have no idea, which is why I was asking? I meant no insult to my question, I apologize for how it came across.

I was going by the News stories I heard

The National Enquirer doesn't constitute a source for news. The police have said recently that the family is now on the back burner.

I expect a multi-billion dollar slander suit when this is all over.

he also looks like someone who would wear one of those goofy hats to cover the bald... huh? a team effort?

but is this the guy that took Elizabeth...clean looking with a soft voice and dressed nice with a golfing cap?

the cops could have made all that up for all we know...

did MK see the perp, and if she really did, is this him?

if not , then we still have work to do...

Honestly, I have tried to be very pro-life and anti dp ...but cases like these, if these white trash low lifes did indeed harm " angel" then I say, Fire away, at them ..up against a wall...

It's amazing that someone of Ricci's "character" can find employment working in such a home.

I imagine that Smart didn't hire him directly, but instead hired contractors. In a place like SLC, where there's lots of building going on, contractors will often hire anybody who can can swing a hammer. We had some really interesting fellows working on our house (not in SLC) -- and our contractor was pretty careful, too.

BTW, this also suggests a method of entry.

When you're having big stuff done to your house it's common to let the construction guys have a key. If Ricci made a copy, and Smart hadn't changed the locks yet -- they could simply have strolled in the front door, locked or not. If Ricci is in on the disappearance, dollars to donuts this is how he got in.

How old does this guy look about? How do you know he lives in a trailer?

Just my opinion but I think the screen might have been cut to make it look like the little girl was running away and who ever did this had no idea the little sister was watching. But why?

Ok, but wouldn't it be normal for them
to search such sites for a possible
body? Folks are scouring everywhere
for her. Also, doing repairs inside a
home, or remodeling, wouldn't have to
cross with new construction sites or
would it? Utah Girl says Edmonds did
construction. Correct me, but I sure
thought he was a city worker on road
projects. Not sure of tying all this
together...

There seem to be a whole lot of 13 to 14 year-old girls disappearing these days. Two in Oregon, one in SLC and more in other states and cities. Some of them are likely to be simple runaways, but the three that I listed above are probably not.

I know a lady who told me that her sister was kidnapped when she was 15 years old but was able to escape before she was transported out of the area. Her kidnappers were trying to force her onto a private plane at Las Vegas when she got away. According to what I was told, the plane took off as soon as they realized she was running for the terminal. They were never caught.

Much as we might not like to think about it, I think there may very well be considerable traffic in young caucasian girls. The subject was pretty well covered in "Unintended Consequences". After this much time, it may be better to pray that they died quickly.

I will be starting the Day 19 thread when midnight gets here. I am also waiting for the story to pop up in printed form on one of the websites. I have about 10 news windows open and no one has it on their websites yet. I saw the guy on TV, he has a lot of gray hair, he looked like an older biker type to me.
