I don't know what the woman's name was... and I'm NOT totally sympethatic to the girl who ran - BUT .. the "Criminal Profiler" I saw on Fox and CNN this morning had to be the most BITTER sounding woman I've ever heard. She was WAY over the top - with the ONLY answer...

I think in cases like this the "answer" is much more complex than some bitter woman can come up with in a couple hours time...

I don't buy the notion that she "had no idea"

I don't know what's wrong with her, but there is definitely something amiss mentally. I do want to know if she was found in the same clothes she left in. How much planning did she do?

If it was Pat Brown, I saw her on both Fox and CNN this morning...I remember Pat Brown from the DC Sniper case. ..........But I think many would agree with what she said this morning.

She was one angry woman this morning. I saw a little green on her neck and face. Maybe her wedding was smaller than she had wished. She was out of hand, imo.

Excellent point about the scissors- I never thought about that. I was watching the newsbabe on CNN interview the policewoman from NM and she never asked her one good question like, what was she wearing? Her jogging clothes? Did she have any money on her? Did she have an ID on her? Newsbabe is hot but dumb.

Except.
Fiance put out the "cold feet" excuse on the first day.
Not exactly the first thing I would think of.

None of those CNN chicks had EIGHT showers. Even I have to agree that EIGHT showers is a bit over the top. Imagine playing those stupid juvenile shower games EIGHT times!! :)

Good morning Howlin and Porterville,
I've always had a long list of good FR friends, intelligent, perceptive, well-informed posters I search out, and always count on for important, interesting, and reliable comments.

This event has generated another list, (I took names), of people I won't bother reading...ever! They won't care, it won't change anything, and won't improve FR, but it surely will save my time and keep my blood pressure down too.

I know---I slept through the whole---was she kidnapped, no she wasn't faze of this, so I think when I have time, I will go back and read this whole thread, just to get the fun of the different reactions from "Thank God", to "she did WHAT?".....LOL

I also, bet that if Greta watched her TV show from last night, she would die of embarrassement----the line up of bridesmaid cousins and the trips in the car with the dad...

MY DAD WOULD KILL ME if I did something like that---worry him and mom and then embarrass the heck out of the family...I don't know that I would want to come home to DAD, forget the fiance!!!!

This will be on every late night show next week then Mad TV or SNL will probably do some parody about her.

How much planning did she do?

We know she had scissors, a bus ticket, and money. Did she also carry a toothbrush? WE should be doing the questioning. LOL

Whomever the criminal profiler on CNN is, they are so mad that they keep replaying it. I've seen it 3 times myself (and I'm on the West Coast- 3hrs behind!).

It's been 8 hours and CNN is still wall to wall run away bride coverage! LOL

I just hope they do a Dr. Phil spoof on SNL with this couple. That would make my evening!

Cuz his uncle is at the department.
Let's see if someone pulled rank and clout to get this national attention.
I think they did, and I think this is why LE called off the search on Thursday. Trying to deflate the story so it could quietly end.
Feds may be getting in trouble here. They can chase down a rich and well-connected bride, but they just can get those troublesome terrorists or illegals./
