It has always looked like a botched kidnapping to me.
The kidnapping itself was not botched but went smoothly.
She was likely in Mexico before the sun rose Sunday morning.
The botched part was, thinking you could get paid and get away with it.
Kidnapping may be viable in Mexico and SA but zero chance in the US.
The body may be returned some day, but it won’t be through the help of anyone directly involved.
I heard an interesting factoid today.
This residential are is not well lit at night because it interferes with area observatories.
It’s the Dark Sky Program that many AZ cities have signed up for. I’m in Pinal County, about 2 hrs from the Mexican border, & my town signed up, altho it’s not really enforced. My subdivision only has street lights on the main roadways because of the program, so if it wasn’t for porch & coach lights, our streets would be impossible to walk down at night. As a result, my porch lights are on all night, just like my parents’ house when I was growing up.
Hmmmmm.... Something just not quite right there.
