***what does this sociopath’s wife look like? If she is similar to Maria could the clerk who sold the bus ticket have mistaken them?***
Good point - As a former marine, the wife might have had an old uniform to wear.
IIRC there are photos of Maria taking $700 out of the ATM on the same day. Wonder how clear those photos are.
p.s. I couldn’t tell my uniformed son apart from all the other guys in his platoon.
I must be channeling your thoughts, because I was thinking the same things last night that you are mentioning here. The Laureans would have had Maria’s military ID, too, so that is a huge possibilty. Not accusing the wife, but I think she is heavily involved in this. It’s highly suspicious that Maria allegedly bought a ticket to Texas, her family is in Ohio, and Laurean ends up in Texas.
