I don't know.
And they know the word of one white cop on a deserted stretch of highway at 1 a.m. in the Everglades (toll booths in South Florida are automated)...probably won't be taken seriously either.
The good news is that the possibility of them being terrorists looks increasingly unlikely.
The bad news for Eunice: she should never have done any interviews with the media.
The chemical formula for this mess is essentially the following:
(Punk Kids)3 + (Media Hysteria) + (Near Police State Mentality) ==> 2·(Media hysteria) + 3·(Victims)
They weren't. I'm assuming the FBI let them run so they could lead them somewhere. Hopefully, this situation will be reversed shortly.
I really fault two groups for this mess: the authorities, because somebody leaked her identity and they should have warned her not to go public; and the media, who don't seem to care how many lives they put in danger as long as they don't have to do any real work.
There was no way this woman's identity should have been given out to the press. These guys are deadly and they would kill her and her family in a heartbeat--to prevent her testimony if they could get to her in time, or for revenge after the fact.
It seems to me that someone among the authorites was incredibly stupid, or deliberately set her up. Giving her name, city of residence, and personal information on TV put her and her family in the crosshairs. I hope the DOJ investigates that leak.
