It is not illegal to own Pit Bulls. If a child in my neighborhood is the victim of an attack by unknown dogs and I own Pit Bulls, I will expect to be questioned by authorities.
Most child abductions that are not because of custody disputes are sexually motivated. That makes any peculiar sexual behavior by the parents quite germane to the investigation.
I have no problems with the police asking questions as part of their investigation. However what is being espoused here by many is not simply a matter of the investigation, but wholy condemnation based on nothing more than a talk show allegation and internet speculation... this is not acceptable or just. To this point there is not one fact offered up that they were indeed swingers, much less that their swinging (if they do) in any way shape or form contributed to their childs disappearance. I see a lot of people preaching moral authority here without any consideration of the facts of the situation. A lot of mob mentality going on, and very little christian compassion.
If this couple has an open or swinging relationship, that's their perogative. Don't have to agree with it, but not going to brand them unworthy or unfit parents simply because of it, as more than a few here have done. If they were doing things sexually or otherwise that placed their children at risk or neglect, I will damn well label them as bad parents. As of this moment though, there is nothing being offered to prove that at all.. speculation, rumor, talk show host drivel and internet chat rooms. And so far all they are even saying is that they were swingers, with of course no proof that they are, but still they will say it (and it may even be true)... as if that by default somehow automatically intertwined with their childs disappearance. Seems to me so far to be nothing more than a bunch of sensationalism that in no way helps this poor child be found.
