Just for the record, Elizabeth is a very pretty girl, much like Polly Klaas was, and as such she may have been a bit precocious regarding the opposite sex. I read initially that police were checking her computer for clues, etc. One theory that comes to mind is she may have been conversing with someone on-line, maybe pretending to be older...she sent her picture to him, he was interested in meeting up with her and somehow found her, either with or without her help, etc. I haven't heard this theory on this board before and just thought I'd put it out there. P.S. I'm the nother of three teens, two of them girls, so I know a little bit about how a teenaged girl's mind works!

I thought I was the only one thinking that this pretty young girl might have a secret life. Look at that video of her and her brother (?) on the beach. Look at the body language, at the look on her face. She looks not quite comfortable, not very relaxed at all. There was something going on with her. This is NOT saying that being abducted was her fault. But she definitely had more going on emotionally than a little girl interested in her dolls.

And re: the uncle. Wouldn't the sister have recognized him?

There are some of us poster who must hold our tongue towards those posters, who can't help in engaging in gossip another they really don't know!

I pray those around your children are more charitable!
