"Might even exchange an e-mail or two."

Make up your mind--did Dixon encounter Elizabeth in person on the street or at a church function, or did they meet through the computer?

No, there didn't have to be a friendship btw the Smarts and Dixon, etc., for Dixon to have met Elizabeth on the street, running, jogging, or whatever, or while she visited her grandparents. So then, the current discussion of whether they had acquaintances in common seems to be superfluous and irrelevant, all of a sudden.

But I thought that the supposed commonality between this alleged sex offender Dixon, and Elizabeth--commonality as to hypothetical church functions, family visits, etc.--was the basis for your suspecting him? Now you seem to say it's not. You seem to say, hey, there's at least one guy in SLC who may have molested a young girl. His name is Dixon. Therefore, he might be it!

Well, DUH!

You certainly don't idealize SLC, do you? So is it safe to assume there was MORE than one person in SLC who may have molested a young girl? What about the other ones?

I've never once said that -- quite the opposite. I have no way of knowing if this person is in any way involved (he could be innocent of the current charges for all anyone on this board knows for sure), but I've always wondered if she wasn't stalked by SOMEONE who maybe spotted her jogging or whatever, someone "trusted" in the community.

yeah like sickler know he is sick taking a girl from her bed and raping her behind the house and then beating her in the face with a hammer. This guy as no feelings or sole.
