True but it was pretty dumb of the local cops to not have entered the kayaker as a missing person. They spent 30K and untold manhours dredging a lake, when they could have just run the guy's passport and realized he had escaped through Canada pretty early on.

One of the officers recommended against reporting him as missing. It’s unclear why.

Do you think there's any implication here there was a man on the inside?

Nah, just stupidity.

Lutherans are really strict about divorce/cheating. If he had announced that he was leaving, the pastor would have been all over him to get him to stay. Disappearing was a lot easier.

Bonus: transferring assets to Georgia left them harder for the courts to access. As for the $80K in new credit card debt, I wonder if he cashed out to buy crypto.

Disagree. How often is a guy like this going to be drowned vs. shifting assets to crypto and trying to move to an [emerging market] to be with a chick he met on the internet.
