She did more than runaway. She lied to LE causing additional monetary damages.
Her future monitary retribution will just be another wedding expense. ;-) (FoxNews)
I doubt her short-lived lie caused much harm. Once she's found, the primary object is complete.
But hey, everybody who runs away creates the situation where LE may expend resources. So, if expending resources is the test, then criminalize it and lock the selfish runaway pukes in jail. Every blessed one of 'em, and double the penalty for the ones whose families have the temerity to involve the media!!
She lied to FBI agents in New Mexico.
Now, what about the sweat pants and sweat shirt that were found the other day? Were they hers? If so, did she also bring a change of clothes along with her hair cutting tools?
Did her fiance notice any luggage or clothing missing, but neglect to mention it to LE so the media coverage/search would continue??? I'm glad she didn't end up a violent crime statistic, but to put her family through this kind of emotional torture is unfathomable.
