Russell is a Black female, 5-feet, 4-inches tall and weighs between 150 and 160 pounds. She was last seen wearing a black shirt, black pants, and white Nike shoes.

She's about average height for a woman and about 150-160 lbs. That's not someone easy to quickly pick up and just whisk away, especially if she were struggling. I mean, maybe? But that brush is thick, and there were police going through the area with K-9 units. If it was a wild animal that moved that fast, there would be signs of the struggle.

I could see it if she walked down into the woods, but it's pretty tight and dense brush down there. Still, if she were chasing a child? But she was on the phone when she screamed, and the traffic background noise remained loud, from the family's public statement. Like, really loud.

I just don't see how ~42 cars (in less than 4 minutes) with headlights on, passing feet away, could miss a struggling 150-160 lb woman, especially with the flashers drawing their attention to look that way. And even if they did miss it, there is only so far you could go in that dense brush. If she were pulled through to a car waiting in the next road over, that vehicle would be caught on someone's Ring camera or other traffic camera. It's a pretty well-to-do residential area.

Reddit is reporting that there is an 8 foot diameter drainage pipe that runs under the freeway at this exact point. She have been dragged through the tunnel to the other side of the highway (or run through by her own volition).

Meaning she fell???

Why would anyone abduct her I think fell is most likely.

If she fell, where is she now? They have combed that whole area with police, dogs, and volunteers.

Maybe she feel and passed out. Woke up later walked toward the highway and was hit. She wouldn’t be in the area they would have to expand the search area

The police arrived three minutes later. Wouldn’t they have seen her if she fell?

I thought they were implying that she fell into the drainage pipe or a deep hole near it. If she traversed the drainage pipe, looking for a way out or was knocked unconscious by a fall or drowned inside it, there wouldn’t have been anything to see or hear.

They have combed the area for miles around, including the length of the drainage pipe. There is no water in it and no recent rain. No holes in the ground found, either. So she happened to slip and fall into a hole that is neither visible nor can be scented by rescue dogs, or she lost her memory from the fall, traversed the pipe, and is wandering in a residential area without her memory but not being seen or noticed by anybody?

I'm trying to see any way this fits.

WTH! It fits because abductors used the tunnel to get away.

And no, that was in response to the specific post above, about her wandering off or falling down without abductors.

Regardless, she is with her family now, and alive. Great news for the night.

She was dropped off at her parents’ house, appeared to be in shock, and was taken to the hospital for evaluation. It will be interesting to hear the whole story.

Really cleared up images in enhanced video released to FOX News by the Hoover Police Department. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDmIOwbnDlY

She exits from the driver side, walks behind the car, and spends a little time doing something at the back seat of the passenger side. She appears to move to the woods around 1:52 or 1:53. No sign of a child, abductor, or animal, at least not that I can see.

Thank God she is safe. So glad for this outcome.

I mean, who could ask for a better outcome? I can't imagine how her parents feel.

So a MH situation after all?

You guys are just too much with your fantastical scenarios about criminals using a toddler to lure a random woman. Get a grip. That is not a thing.

Educate yourself.

Thanks for posting this. The thread is crazy. She was abducted. Not by a bear or alien.

As I posted earlier, people miss things in plain sight all the time. Gorilla study, folks.

You don't know that she was abducted. The point is that many things are possible, and many things have happened, and people need to stop making blanket assertions when they don't know the facts. It's OK to not know.

+1 Between the mother and daughter who disappeared on the way to summer camp being found alive and well, and now this, it’s been a good news week.

Who dropped her off at her parents' house?

And why wasn't she dropped off at her own house?

IIRC, she lives at her parents' house, PP.

The media doesn’t know yet.

This seems like a good old fashioned ghost story! Glad it had a happy ending

Theory from Reddit

"Carlee planned to party with some friends over the weekend which included a new guy she met online. Carlee would eventually meet him on the side of the express way, ditched her vehicle as well as her belongings, got into a grey sedan with this mystery guy and ended up at the Red Roof partying with a group of people.

The Red Roof manager noticed Carlee as one of the people in the group and alerted the police. Carlee and the mystery man left the Red Roof soon after and a nearby doorbell camera spotted Carlee getting dropped off around the block from her home shortly before arriving back home. (Allegedly)

An alleged person who was with her posted a comment on a video stating that Carlee is going to state she had a mental breakdown and that she was wandering around for 2 days.

This is just what the streets are saying. Y’all think it’s true?"

This seems plausible. Obviously, there was no toddler, so she either hallucinated that or just made it up. Which is pretty messed up, so I hope she was having some kind of lapse in judgement.
