ES missing since 6-5-2002 and will have been missing for 3 months in a few hours, so I thought that this would be an approriate time to start a new thread.

The Smart family is now focusing on other people known to associate with Richard Ricci. During a news conference held Tuesday, Elizabeth's father reiterated what the family has felt from the beginning.
“The family believes that along with Richard there were others involved,” said Ed Smart.
Elizabeth Smart's family also said they're anxious to know the identity of a man who was digging in Fairview Canyon in Sanpete County. There is a rough composite drawing of the man that two hikers passed reportedly digging a rectangular hole that looked like a "grave." The man told the hikers it was to roast a pig, but then apparently left in a blue SUV.
The family is calling the events "highly suspicious."
New to me, too. I saw the interview of Moul and Banfield a couple? of months ago? At no time did he say such a thing.
Does one's memory get better with time? Don't think so.
Police obviously didn't want the blue van information released, just as they haven't wanted a sketch of the 5'8" man with dark hair that drove it released, for whatever reason. There has also been very little released about the machette Ricci was wearing and I doubt Moul would have made it up. You posters are shameless. Police consider him credible so he probably passed a polygraph.
That pretty much applies to all of us that don't buy into your Smart-bashing, Mormon-bashing theories, doesn't it?
I especially liked her "poise" when asked about a book deal. She looked positively thrilled - like she had won the lottery.
You really need to pick up that logic book I recommended. Use of the word 'surreptitiously' in no way excludes Ricci as the person who took it.
You are conveniently leaving out the part that Ed Smart didn't know the Ricci and possibly others were ex-cons. He needed workers around all the time in his business - building and remodeling homes.
Are you saying that it was OK that Ricci plotted armed bank robberies while living with Angela and her son, but it is unlikely that he planned a failed burglary or premeditated kidnapping at the Smarts?
Oh, please. Do you honestly believe that LE told Neth Moul not to tell AB about this little tidbit while he was being interviewed?? Give me a break!
How do you know that they were living together at that time? Where is the source, or did a little birdie tell you?
I never saw Ricci dead, did you?
If it comes down to believing Angela or Moul, that's a real easy choice. The big reward money ($250,000) that some of you are trying to smear Moul about was announced about the first day and was only for the safe return of ES. It's hard to imagine a scenario where Moul would play in that. The $25,000 reward came about a month or more after ES was abducted - after the Moul grand jury testimony and Banfield interview i.e. Moul didn't know about it because it hadn't been announced.
They tell witness to keeps their lips sealed on a lot of evidence in cases. The first time I saw the security guard at the hospital interviewed he said he made a 911 call when they two cars were acting suspiciously in the parking lot. He never mentioned it again, I'm sure because the police asked him not to.
Think reality! Reality is a good thing. Repeat after me. I like reality. Reality is good for me. I want to be realistic.
