Woman stops to check on toddler left on side of road,then vanishes

[younggiftedandblack]

She could have had a mental breakdown and was going through an episode. My daughter went through one last year. She was delusional and seeing and believing things were there that weren't. She lived in Orlando alone at the time, luckily the police found her in West Palm Beach.

 

[Coldchi]

she's probably either being sex trafficked........or worse.

Agree, this sounds horrible and my bet is kidnapped for sex trafficking.

This has been a much bigger issue in our community for our young teenage to mid 20’s girls than what the media is reporting on.

Did she have a history of mental issues?

Honestly I don't know what to believe
So I don't want to really jump to any conclusions
But this whole thing seems very strange


Another possible scenario could be, possibly a domestic violence situation?
Maybe she planed this runaway to get away from an abusive boyfriend?


Facts so far:
She just got off from work
The police found in the car
a) Her hat
b) Her wig
c) Her cell phone
d) Her Apple Watch

Can someone explain to me the thought process of a person needing to take off their watch
In their car while driving home ???
Like why would you need to do that.....at that specific time ???
You wore it all day at work (the news posted a picture of her wearing it that same day)
But on the way home...for some reason...you have the need to say to yourself...
"I really need to take off my GPS tracking smartwatch right now"

(That shit is extremely convenient, is all I'm saying)
(Because most people usually take off jewelry, watches, etc, etc, when they get home)

It's so dark and the glare of headlights, it's hard to tell if she exited her car.

Her watch was in the car, with her phone I think is what comments said.

She called her fam then called 911, she was on the phone with the sister in law. They heard her talk to the child then she screamed and that was all.

People viewing the vid says that they can see two people, one at the front of the car and one opening her door.

Scroll the comments

From the comments section:

"at 0:51 you can see the driver door open at 0:56 a silhouette is hurrying around the car and opens the passenger door at 1:00 at 1:23 you see the person standing at the side of the car. at 1:27 it seems like the sllhoutte vanishes into the trees by the sing pole"

"Check the 1:00 minute mark. I saw someone run past the huge square sign that shows hotels, restaurants and rest stops. Looks like a human figure running. I double checked and didn't see a light cast that shadow."

"You can see brake lights on 1:50 backing up then the lights go off. It’s a vehicle in plain sight. It’s clear whoever took her was there and had been sitting there. . They need to slow this video down and watch it again"

So.eomebody snatch d h r and took her into the woods? Get the hound dogs. If they drug her into a. Vehicle look for tire tracks... Fuck you skeptical idiots. This needs to be taken seriously.

I don't know about all those things they saw as far a lights. That I question because if you watch the vid multiple times, many of those things happen before she even pulled up.

There's some kind of weird glare from the camera. I saw brake lights going against traffic down the side of the road, but it looks like camera glare.

Also if you keep your eyes fixed on the billboard there's a lot of shadows from the cars passing and it's not consistent with the traffic. It's weird.

I couldn't make out stuff because there's so much weird camera diffraction from the very start of the vid on the right in the dark and it's all from passing cars.

 

[CurtDawg]

Another possible theory:

Okay lets say unfortunately this was a kidnapping.....
But what if, this is not the abduction spot we are watching
What if this is where the kidnappers just dumped/switched her car

What if she was kidnapped like a half mile or 1 mile back
Then the kidnappers drove her car (maybe they also drugged her somehow)
What if the kidnappers purposely drove to that specific spot, that specific highway sign/landmark
I saw someone mention in the comments that behind that spot there is a housing/apartment complex
What if they had a gateway car parked on the other side of the woods or right near there

From the comments section:

"FedEx truck goes by at the 2:46 -- 3:06 mark. I imagine FedEx can track who that was and get camera? They know where their drivers are, right?"

There seems to be a decent amount of traffic on that highway
So why can't the cops just take that same camera, rewind it about 20 minutes back
Then look for the so called toddler walking on the shoulder of the road

Its a 3 lane highway
And most of the cars are driving in the right hand lane
Every time a car passes, their headlights illuminate the shoulder & some of the grass
Why not rewind the footage & slowly watch for a smaller figure walking along the side of the road/grass

I assume they already have. I believe they are being selective of what information they let out. And being careful how they handle this. Right now everyone has a theory. Everything from midgets to mechanical dolls and live kid bait.

The video is too dark to make out much of anything. Her phone and smart watch were both left at the scene. Two things that could've been used to track her. I did wonder if it could've been possibly staged. But why go through the trouble of calling 911? She could've just called the family member and left it at that. Plus she had so much going for her.

I believe she has to be on camera somewhere. Too many home/business cameras now a days for her or someone involved not to show up. Everyone in that area need to check their ring door bells/ dash cams, etc.

I just finished watching a recent youtube stream, a few minutes ago
I found out some details that I did not know before
This does sound more like this is an abduction/kidnapping, rather than a planned runaway

1) Apple watch was found in her purse
2) Apple ear buds found in her purse
3) Purse found inside the car
4) Cell phone found on the ground, outside of the car
5) Hat & wig found on the ground, outside of the car
6) Wig found on the ground, outside of the car

Cot damn, you never know when life can change in a blink of an eye
Check the youtube vid below
The live stream starts at the 18:30 mark
But pay attention to the 35:55 mark, thats when he says what the police found when they arrived

 

[TX4lyfe]

After seeing the video, if she saw a kid, it had to be walking right on the shoulder next to the right lane. It’s too dark see anything at highway speed unless it was super obvious

This is random but I find it odd that they grabbed a random passing by chick.

What if a male pulled up is what I'm getting at. Would they just of come out and said oh that's my daughter, she's OK and wait for a next victim?

 

[BGLR1212000]

What happened to the baby she saw and who else saw the baby?

 

[Dr. Truth]

Y’all assuming this ain’t her plan to leave her current man and run off with somebody else

 

[lazarus]

could be a small person partner playing the part as a toddler in the night

I asked the same question earlier, what if a cop had passed by and saw the kid or car full of people. I can't see someone using this tactic to abduct someone for sex trafficking

What the fuck?!

That is just so fucked up!

Weird case

Hate to say it but I believe she disappeared on purpose. If you are driving down the highway and see something on the shoulder,you are gonna pass it. You will have to backup or let the kid come to you. What 25 year old ain't gonna get out her car at night without her phone?

Glad she alive. I know her family is relieved and thanking God.

Now we will begin to get some answers. Hope this wasn't some ruse to get away from other issues she may of had going on.

 

[850credit]

My ex was like this.

Her parents had to fly out to DC from San Francisco because she'd been missing from work. Had to break down her door. She was on the floor passed out...drunk.

Last time I took her to a mental hospital she was literally speaking in tongues. I had to admit there was nothing more I could do for her, she needed psychiatric care way beyond just a boyfriend's support.

You're not happy she's found alive?

This might sound stupid but I think her abductors got spooked and decided to let her go. They prolly weren't that smart and realized they wouldn't get away with it.

 

[Kubrick]

Happy she is alive but a lot of this story never added up. The fact the Hoover PD - fuck Hoover PD and city btw - never officially called this a missing person case and where it happened made me suspicious from the jump.

The fact that no one else reported seeing the same she did and subsequent video didn't line up.

Oh wow, shes alive
Someone just sent me a text a few minutes ago

I just read the family said they got a call from her earlier today saying she was at the Red Roof Inn but she wasn't there when they got there. She returned home at 10:45, that was about 2 hours ago so somebody needs to be giving a report on what happened

I'm gonna hold judgement until farther notice.
