    What I don’t understand or even comprehend is how a mother that has known a man for 2 days let him take her child anywhere by hisself.

    Better safe than sorry, I reckon, but this sure didn’t seem to be an “abduction”. More of a helping hand.

    Mercifully found. Thanks to the person who called with the tip. It is not a time to let men have hold of your babies who are not truly known.

    Why wouldn’t they have checked at home first? Something is not kosher.

    Yeah, let me help you with your child, OMG! I don’t care if she does know him. How much longer are women going to trust boyfriends with their kids? Just his saying ice cream would been the red flag for me.

    Even though this gentleman (and I use that term loosely) is known to the mother and they have video of them leaving together, I wouldn’t be surprised if Law Enforcement Officials still go knock on the doors of known Sex Offenders that live or have been in that area in the last decade. It’s a tragedy and I am praying for her safe return.
