Sorry, I can’t buy into it. If his wife had said, he’s taking some time off. Yeah, she said “I don’t know where he is” When your wife doesn’t know where you are for 24 consecutive hours, it’s a bad thing, when she doesn’t know where you are for a week ...

If my wife didn't know where I was for five hours (forget about five days), I would have some ‘splanin’ to do.

Why is everyone believing the wife didnt know where he was. The wife is under no obligation to share anything with the media. And, as a private person, she is just as able to lie to media as anyone else is.

My guess is that if someone needed to get to him, they could have.

I have been in a position where I needed to be “accessible” day or night (I used to be involved with corporate mergers, and those keep odd hours.) Letting people know where you are, and under what conditions you want to be disturbed is not brain surgery.

Does the guy get vacation?

Give him a break.
