Aldeer.com Forums Alabama Deer Talk Aldeer General Forum Bham woman likely abducted

It just has to look like a toddler to catch most folks' attention, though.

This is where the evil midgets disguised as toddlers comes into the story.

Well she is a "girl" and is a nursing student; but whatever.

Even if you are 50 years old, if your parents are still alive, you are still someone's child. But maybe whoever is doing the reporting considers a "girl" to be anyone their age or younger. I know at my 50+ age, I tend to refer to folks in their mid to late 30s as girls, but most males are referred to as guys regardless of age. But, our daughter turned 38 this year, so that is probably part of why I think that way.

25 years old is not a "girl." That's an adult woman, albeit a young woman. If a 25-yo man was involved with something no one would call him a boy.

Legitimate reporting would not identify her as a "girl." Typically that's a designation tied with age, and "girl" would be for someone age 12 or younger. Ages 13-19 would be teenagers, and 20+ would be young adult or adult. But when you have reporters and family and others pushing a narrative about a "girl" being abducted or with issues or other scenarios, they go with it. Similar to football and sports coaches bragging about their "young men!" and then falling back on "they're just kids" when trouble hits. It's selective descriptions.



Didn't know we had so many traffic cameras all over the place. Dash cams, for sure. Didn't know about the traffic cams.

Anyone get an idea of what she was doing at the Harpersville PD earlier that day? And it is normal for HPD to make social media posts about a casual visitor?

Thought that was weird, too.

I think they posted after she was reported missing?

Traffic cams and tag reading cams all over the place. Must be 50 tag cams in Alabaster alone.

visiting fiance? previous boyfriend? just likes to hang out at local police stations?

"Brief interaction " or whatever they said? Did she get pulled over in harpersville?

We have used them on insurance claims to prove prior damage. Folks get surprised when you show them a traffic cam picture of their truck 3 months earlier with the same dent in the bumper they claims was from the accident.

I didn't know about https://algotraffic.com/ and took a look around. Never knew there is a cam on the I-65 bridge.

They're everywhere. I guess we definitely live in a surveillance police state with someone watching all the time.

I read that to be an unknown but in my mind she was probably paying for a ticket or something like that. They made sure to say how respectful she was and that often isn't the case when someone is paying a fine. That could be why she stood out to them and they remembered the name. It would be interesting to know all the details when they find out, but out of respect for her privacy, the public may never know.

This has hoax written all over it and the first thing I told my wife. I still hate it because I really like her boyfriend. Assuming he was not in on it, I bet he’s done with that one.

That right there is hilarious.😀

You can’t cross a river in Alabama with out being on camera. They’ve got cameras at every pinch point you could imagine and then some more.

I think you guys nailed this from the beginning. My wife told me about an abduction, so I checked here and got the real story.

I have no idea what really happened, but I think it would be very difficult to charge her with anything. She made a 911 call and claimed to see a toddler; no way to prove that she didn't see something she thought could have been a child. And then she abandoned her vehicle. I don't think that's a crime.

Everything else happened because of conjecture by others. I don't see anything to prosecute, at least on evidence available at this point.

When she gets a full questioning, usually something comes out that shows she made a false 911 call. In this case, because of all the crap that got stirred up she will at minimum get a harsh misdemeanor charge.

What if you are all wrong and she truly escaped her abductors?
