A lot of people here on FR were hot to hang the fiancee, too. I hope they feel like idiots, but I doubt if they have that much shame.

Elizabeth Smart was a GIRL and she was being held against her will--APPLES---ORANGES!!!

The proposition was, "If at any time she knew or should have known the police were looking for her then her not coming forward is a crime."

I would think that proposition applies regardless of how the disappearance originated. And, I think that proposition is false. Unless a fugitive from justice, it is not illegal to run away, and it is not illegal to hide.

Well, this affair was the first of the season then. Not a very good omen. Now all the other brides will be making "Jennifer" jokes.

Jennifers hometown Gainesville is not your regular small Georgia town it's more like a wannbe Atlanta and there is definitely a class system in effect there. You're either in or you're out and there's no in between.
I've known a few women who grew up in that town that moved away because of the peer pressure there, not wanting their daughters to grow up in it.

"I wish the MSM would ask someone in the family, how does he feel getting dumped by such a bi*ch?"

The answer would be just way too easy.

This was from CBS when the story first hit:

Police gave mixed signals about whether they believe Wilbanks, a hospital nurse, may have gotten cold feet four days before her wedding.

I have this REALLY great recipe for those kinds of sandwiches! You put a lot of vegetables together, smash them up in the Cruisinart, squeeze them through cheesecloth, let it sit over night and then do the sandwiches.

I am talking MAJOR chick food.

There is so much in this story, especially the so far unknown shadows, to remind me why the south has produced some of the greatest literature in our country.

maybe this is a girl's plot to make a million on a book. it's a better idea than a finger in the chili.

Somewhere on this thread somebody posted a link that said she's a medical assistant (of course, that could be the same thing, but I didn't get that impression.)

Oh, that's from way back when I was in Junior Womaen's Club. All they do is crank out cookbooks!

Why must brides and their attendants look like other than what they are? I'm not saying they shouldn't have their hair and makeup done but often you would not recognize them on an ordinary day.

When my daughter and daughter-in-laws were married they all looked like themselves and they were spectacular brides. No upswept dos and curlie q's, just lovely, natural hairdos and makeup.

I know. I read them. I remember a couple where some folks were sure he was lying because he was looking up and to the left. I feel for him. There he was having to take a lie detector test, being made fun of . . .
