The boyfriend flies home and lawyers up. That speaks volumes on his character.

Laundrie, who has since returned to Florida, has reportedly hired a lawyer and refused to cooperate with authorities.

Gee, I wonder why.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The boyfriend is not missing and the daughter is missing.

That doesn’t sound good.

Ok, so hire a goon with a blowtorch and pair of pliers and send him to Florida.

Laundry?

Waterboard him.

Boyfriend looks like Shia LaBeouf...

[Dilbert San Diego]

I know right? They are on a road trip together, he returns home, but she doesn’t? And he has nothing to say about why she didn’t return home as well????

[DesertRhino]

Not hearing ANY explanation from the guy at all? He just flies home and gets a lawyer?

Hate to say it, but this story is going to follow a predictable path.

You would think that he would be eager to clear himself. But then, there is the old adage of NEVER talk to the police in which you might be implicated of a crime.

The question I still have is did he lawyer up as soon as he was named a suspect or before?

Hiring a lawyer and refusing to cooperate with authorities is good advice for anyone who the police wish to talk to - there are way too many horror stories about what has happened to innocent people who talked to police without a lawyer present. But the fact that this guy is back, safe and sound, while his girlfriend isn't, and no explanation - doesn't sound good.

I read a version of this story & it is absolutely horrifying. This beautiful young girl disappears & the “fiance” won’t help? At what point do they arrest him? If he killed her there probably won’t even be a corpse left. These poor tortured parents.

Where is the van?

[Chewbarkah]

The story, as usual, seems to be leaving out critical information. The van “has been recovered” implies it had been missing. Had the boyfriend reported an incident such as theft of the vehicle, being separated from the girl, someone carting off the girl; was there a search for the girl, what? There has to be a LOT more to the story than the guy just returned to Florida. In the pics, the couple seem happy and into each other. It means nothing, but the guy just doesn’t look like a criminal.

There is quite a subculture that revolves around converting regular vans into camper vans and travelling around the country. Out on the YouTube, there are countless videos about the van camping life and also a lot of tips on how to customize your camper van.

Think no-frills RV for two (or one) done on the cheap. Some of the camper vans are quite nice with a lot of luxurious touches.

Anyhow, it is very suspicious for this guy to return to Florida and "lawyer up". I disagree with the young woman's father who says we should forget about the guy and the van for now. That is actually where the search needs to start!

I'm sure behind the scenes this guy has a lot of interrogations in a small room ahead of him.

Or lack of character?

[riri]

Gee, 75 million or so illegals from war torn, 3rd world, places where human life and women are not valued--what could go wrong?

Not safe to "road trip" anymore, IMO. If you do it, ya better be packing.
