This is an urgent plea for help from Prairie Lady; these are her posts: [copied]
I JUST got off the phone with my neice. It seems my sister (her mother) is missing since yesterday between 3pm and 4:40pm yesterday from the SouthCarolina area.
She headed north as far as we can track, but then nothing. This is TOTALLY uncharacteristic of her.
We need to know if she is on her own willingly making decisions, or if she has been abducted and is in need of help. Is there anybody from that area that can help?
----------------------
ok, she spoke to hubbie from home via phone about 3 pm yesterday afternoon. She left home at that time saying she was headed for her local walmart near Aynor South Carolina..I don't know the exact town...maybe conroe or something? She never made it to walmart. Survaliance tapes show she never went in there. She withdrew some money from the bank locally. She put gas in her car at the north carolina / south carolina state line (cherry creek). She withdrew a BUNCH of money in Raliegh Durham North Carolina. She spoke to her daughter at 4:30 saying she was going christmas shopping and that she would be late. But she never made it home.
If she had any inclinations to leave home, she never indicated it, and she would NOT be heading NORTH!!
She is 5'7 inches tall, LONG legs, 150 lbs, has very short medium brown hair. lots of freckels, hazel eyes. Driving a Dark Blue BMW 4 door with a mini antennea on the driver's side on the post between the door and the windshield, licence plate # 845HLG
----------------------
Go ahead and post it at freeps..thanks

My brother in law is former military police. He made a call to the police and is tracking bank usage which is showing itself to be very abnormal such as numerous attempts to use the various cards but rejects due to wrong pin numbers. He's requested survalance tapes from the banks as well. She was supposed to go to walmart, but walmart survaliance tapes show she never made it there. So, hes compiling stuff to show that something IS very wrong.
Also, she talked to her daughter AFTER one of the cash drafts and said someting weird to her daughter...like I love you...and she NEVER says that to THAT daughter.
Anyway, I didn't want to put all this on the boards...
This is too weird.

Second Kentucky jail escapee captured in Indiana; two men suspected of kidnapping woman

The second jail escapee suspected of abducting a South Carolina woman during a multi-state crime spree was caputured Wednesday in Indiana.
Chadrick E. Fulks was in custody after being caught sometime after 11 a.m. CST in Elkhart County, Ind., said Tom VanWormer, an FBI agent in Evansville, Ind.
It wasn't immediately clear Wednesday if authorities were any closer to finding the missing woman, Alice Donovan, VanWormer said. Authorities believe she was kidnapped Thursday from a Wal-Mart parking lot in Conway, S.C., by Fulks and another escapee, L. Branden Basham, who was arrested Sunday in Kentucky.
Fulks, 25, and Basham, 21, who escaped Nov. 4 from the Hopkins County jail in western Kentucky, also are suspected of abducting a 42-year-old Kentucky man who was able to free himself after he was left tied to a tree.
Basham was arrested Sunday after allegedly trying to hijack a car from a woman and her 15-year-old daughter at an Ashland, Ky., mall. After a foot chase during which Basham and an officer exchanged gunfire, police found him in the Ohio River.
Without elaborating, Kentucky police said Basham's arrest yielded "a lot of leads" in the search for Donovan. He was being held in lieu of $2 million bail on charges of attempted robbery, criminal attempt to commit murder on an officer and fleeing or eluding a police officer.
Details of Fulks' arrest were not immediately released.
Ohio troopers said they believe they spotted Fulks late Monday sleeping in a blue BMW parked in a rest area in north-central Ohio. The man sped off when the trooper ordered him out of the car and nearly ran over another officer. The pursuit was halted to make sure the officer was OK.
"Our trooper did not see anyone else in the car but we don't know if there were possible victims or abductions inside the trunk," Lewis said.
Donovan's relatives have said they hoped her knack for gaining trust and her friendliness would buy her safety.
"She's a good listener and cares about other people," her sister Gloria Lindsey said. "I can't help but think that if the kidnappers just let her talk, gain her trust and get to know her, they would not harm her."
