Jogging at 4;30 am no less. At least that’s what I thought the article I saw this morning said.

I don’t think it’s very weird.
Who is always the first suspect in a female disappearance?

I’d lawyer up too. If the police like you for anything you better be damn careful.

“Why is any white woman in Memphis?”

Probably lives in Germantown.

Got that right, especially if they’re operating under a toxic, predatory DA whose focus is winning and not justice.

“In a March 2021 Instagram post, her husband, Richard Fletcher, marked their seven-year wedding anniversary with an image of them smiling over an outdoor brunch table.

“Yesterday marked 7 years married to this beauty!” he wrote. “If you were to ask us at year 3 if we would make it to 7 we probably would of said NO! We apparently weren’t given the memo that a healthy marriage is not going to come easy. Luckily, we put God/Recovery first, we were both willing to believe in each other, and asked for help.”

He continued: “We are so thankful for individual counseling, couples counseling, recovery and friends! We can honestly say we wouldn’t have it any other way!”

Memphis police told Fox News Digital Friday evening that the husband and the couple’s two children were OK. The spokesperson declined to comment further.

In an earlier news briefing, she said police were not aware of any connection between Fletcher’s abduction and reports from the start of the semester that someone had been harassing members of the University of Memphis’ women’s cross-country team as they ran in the area.

Last year, the school where she works, St. Mary’s Episcopal School praised her in a Facebook post as someone whose “smile brightens every room she enters.”

“She is a caring and passionate teacher who is always looking for creative ways to teach to all learners,” the post reads.

In a letter to students on Friday, Head of School Albert Throckmorton wrote that Fletcher, who was identified as a “JK Teacher,” “has been reported kidnapped early this morning.”

She is a Baylor University alumna who earned her bachelor’s in exercise and sports science. She later received a master’s in teaching at Belmont University.”

Gotcha, the outskirts.

Memphis jogger abducted on street, bundled into SUV is billionaire heiress

The company just got to $3B in annual revenue in 2020, years after the grandfather died.

If he was a billionaire it wasn’t from the business.
