Woman missing after reporting seeing a toddler on the highway

[Anonymous]

It just gets weirder and more dramatic. Kind of losing interest tbh. If planned hoax, hope there are consequences.

So many of you think the police would immediately tell the public about an abduction. Wrong.

Here's a case in CA, where the police didn't believe Denise Huskins was abducted because she returned 48 hours with a suitcase. They thought it was a hoax because she "didn't act like a kidnapping victim." Well, the FBI got on the case and arrested a Harvard-trained lawyer who abducted Huskins and demanded less than $10K ransom. The nasty speculation and rumors forced them to move. The police didn't warn the public about a real threat. https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-vallejo-police-hoax-denise-huskins-20160801-snap-story.html

It's dangerous at worst, laughable at best if you think the police, companies, the church, or even journalists will release timely information to protect the public or private constituencies. We know from the movie "Spotlight" that the Boston Globe sat on information that would alert the public that priests were molesting children, until they felt they had a "stronger" case. We know from #metoo that companies have routinely swept cases of rape and harassment under the rug. Heck, if you're over 10 years old, you will be lucky if your missing persons case is taken seriously or even investigated, so what makes you think they're out there in a rush to warn the public: https://www.usatoday.com/in-depth/news/investigations/2023/03/02/missing-children-kids-police-attention-depends-on-age-location/11219534002/

Red Roof Inn has been hit with lawsuits for aiding and abetting traffickers and profiting from it in many states. So, the hotel did or didn't do something based on its own interests. If you Google it you will read horrifying details and them turning a blind eye (i.e. proving my earlier point about companies not protecting the public or its guests).

Twitter reports 64,000 Black women remain missing. Here's an NPR report on how Black women disproportionately go missing. https://www.npr.org/2021/09/24/1040048967/missing-black-women-girls-left-out-media-ignored

No matter what happened to Carlee, publicizing all missing women (and children, per above) cases can greatly influence their outcome of being found and helping the police. We know that Black women are often ignored.

God, you’re hilarious. What a blowhard you are. Get so very much over yourself.

Maybe she believed he was cheating. The woman in that video (not Carlee) said something to the effect of “You cheat, I’m leaving like a thief in the night.” Did she create a bogus scenario to test her boyfriend? Would he rescue her like a knight in shining armor?

Another piece of evidence that she might well be low intelligence and high drama, terrible pattern

No one makes it through a nursing program with low intelligence. Stop insulting this woman you know nothing about.

There’s a whole spectrum of nursing programs. She could be in a LPN program which really isn’t too difficult.

Is these people want to trash her they will find a way. Even make up her degree.

I mean there is no real reason for the whole thing released. What are we supposed to think?!

You don’t need to think anything anything. Wait for more info. The world will go on without the wild, baseless theories.

You are not in charge here. You are not the moderator. We will continue to discuss this as we see fit and you’ll just have to find a way to cope with it.

I think I love you.

Police said the investigation would take a few days. Can't be too complicated then.

I don't think it was a hoax. I think the young lady had a psychotic episode.

Crime Stoppers of Central Alabama on Monday reversed course hours after announcing that more than $60,000 raised in reward money for information that led to the safe return of Carlee Russell would be returned to donors.

On Monday morning, the organization said they would refund $63,378 donated in the 48-plus hours the 25-year-old nursing student was missing.

However, on Monday afternoon, they announced that was no longer the case.

Maybe they’re going to payout people who give info leading to Carlee’s arrest.

A psychotic break facilitated by her brother’s girlfriend?

Hoover PD has an incredible amount of resources and they’ve always had a reputation of being hard asses in terms of law enforcement. Guaranteed that is not the only camera footage of that location on 459. I’d bet a large sum of money they know every place that girl was from the time she left work until the time she walked away. The neighborhood behind the interstate is not full of cheap housing either. It’s a place you’re likely to find lots of security cameras and doorbell cams. You can bet they have that too. Anyone leaving that neighborhood is going to be picked up on any number of cameras moving up and down 150. When Hoover drops the hammer on her and her story, they won’t leave any doubt

Crimestoppers DID refund a significant amount of money already. The rest is now being held.

If this woman was truly kidnapped & someone else had used their toddler to lure her to stop, then this is truly a very sad situation.

I know at this point there is probably a lot of speculation going on over what truly happened.
Because people….society are so quick to judge.

I myself am just waiting until more details come out Re: this case before forming a personal opinion.

And I advise everyone else to do the same.

Clearly didn’t happen. Get past it.

And speaking of Aniah Blanchard... she was truly such a lovely girl and innocent victim. Her murderer was a repeat criminal who should NEVER have been allowed to walk around freely.
