In addition to Jolly Green's excellent post #75, the head of security reported neither car had the 'boxy' configuration of the Cherokee. Also, he got a good look at the driver of the first car and swears it was not Ricci.

Wait a minute, I was probably acting strange in a parking lot while talking to a friend today. Was it caught on tape? If neither car was a Cherokee & Ricci wasn't one of the drivers, what is the significance? I think people are trying too hard to invent something.
Interesting comment from Larry King after interviewing the Smart Family tonight:
“I asked them today, did Mary Katherine (Elizabeth’s sister who witnessed the kidnapping) tell you she knew the abductor? They never answered. I said, did you ask? They said they've been told by the police not to ask. Well, that's significant. If she didn't yell and Elizabeth didn't yell the probability is they knew the abductor,” King said.

Told by the police not to ask? Why? Isn't Elizabeth's life at stake?
