I have to agree with you Hack, Ed and Tom are involved upto their necks in the abduction for cash, not ransom. They sold Elizabeth for money, that's why there is no ransom.

The only question now is what did they need the money for? Perhaps to payoff a blackmailer about their gay lifestyle?

I'm guessing our posts will be deleted soon. No open discussion on FR...

If the Smart brothers were willing to sell Elizabeth for cash, why didn't they arrange to sell Ed Smart's four sons as well? After all, if they are involved in the gay community, they could get a lot more money for young boys, couldn't they? (Not that I believe this, it is a disgusting thought, but sorry, I could never get the connection that if the Smarts are gay men, they would sell a girl..)
