ALBUQUERQUE A Georgia bride-to-be who vanished just days before her wedding turned up in New Mexico (search) and fabricated a tale of abduction before admitting Saturday that she got cold feet and "needed some time alone," police said.

Are you kidding?
She didn't "take a vacation." She staged an abduction by having claimed she was going for a run and then not coming back.
If someone yells fire in a crowded movie theater, that person should not be charged for the people that are trampled, the fire and police departments that call and respond, and the damage caused when those departments are not able to handle other calls? All because that person was just "exercising his rights of free speech?"
May she end up and old maid...she behaved like a 15 y.o. brat and her parents should ground her....
If the media could take the case of the woman in Houston who killed her five children and make it all her husband's fault, they can easily turn this story into the fiance's fault.
Who was the first person to assume "abduction" in this case? Given the fact a large wedding was imminent, why wasn't more weight given to the "cold feet" scenario? Like a bunch of idiots we all believed the worst, called in the media, called in the cops, and shot off our big mouths while this woman enjoyed a trip to Vegas. The only reason people want to see her punished is because she made them look stupid.
any news of her marrying a former boyfriend in vegas yet?
Speak for yourself.
Ooops. Forgot about the one Freeper who had it all figured out.
2. Make her wear a clown suit for a year.
Brilliant!
Okay then. Two Freepers.
What are you? A lawyer? Sue me for an overstatement or six. An author? Write a book about it and leave me out.
Yea gods!
True only if you're talking to teenagers. :-) I've read that the age vs. divorce rate plot troughs at around 24 (maybe a year or two older for men). Waiting later than that makes the divorce rate climb, but the slope is not as steep as it is on the other side of the trough.
"Well I'm tired of this story already but I'm sure the media can squeeze at least two or three more days out of it."
.... like a street wino attempts to wring out the last drop of liquor from an empty half pint bottle. (LOL)
"If the woman decides she does want to go ahead with the marriage, her fiance should have the sense to call it off. She must be a good actor if she had her fiance, her family, and the minister all completely fooled."
I predict for her encour performance, she'll get offers like all the other Jerry Springer freaks. Then she'll marry some 15 year old boy like Mary Kay Leteaurno(sp?)
Very well said. I agree with you 100%
The charges stuck too. She made up a story about a guy with a knife and rope, and was on film buying the knife and rope herself! Doh! The cops searched for the phantom. She was ordered to pay $9,000. The search costs, OT alone, were more than 40 grand.
This little brat, however, didn't stick to her abduction story. No search for a phantom, just a search for the known missing person.
The fact that this brat was prepared with an abduction story is evidence that she anticipated a reunion. I'm betting the long-term reception isn't all that she dreamed of. ;-) Glad she's alive; hope she gets her head screwed on straight.
Oh, it's one of those stagette party things. Each girl ties a hot dog on a string and it dangles down halfway between knees and hips, then she has to crouch down and aim the hot dog for a milk bottle on the floor between her feet. It's not easy if you aren't used to doing deep knee bends.
I guess the milk bottle part tells you how old this game is?
