One of those "read between the lines" cases

Post by jeffcoslacker »

I love those. Where the TV news is going full-on with a story, and then they suddenly pull it back and have little to say about it, and you have to put the pieces together yourself.

OK so last week on Tuesday this married father of two some kind of contractor I gather tells his wife he's going to give an estimate and do a couple of things, be back later tonight. Except he doesn't come back.

By Thursday the news is covering the disappearance, showing pics of the guy and wife with happy smiles and kids with hockey uniforms and soccer balls and family pics and the description/plate of his car and if you've seen him call and alla that.

Lotta Facebook chatter, bring him home safe, hashtag this, whatever. Just inundating all forms of media.

The whole time I'm thinking "This guy ghosted himself, he's up to something."

Then Friday, the story suddenly goes cold. Just something on the news about the police no longer say it's a suspicious disappearance, he was seen by a witness who knows him well on Thursday, and the family says they have no comment on the matter. Facebook postings disappear. Ah, I think to myself. This is unraveling. I was correct.

But it even takes a weirder turn. The police had said on Friday, during the last "He's still a missing person" newscast, that they found his vehicle, unlocked, with his phone fully charged inside, at a parking lot about ten miles from his house.

Then later they say that they have a body positively identified as him. Whoops, what? This doesn't EXACTLY fit with my scenario, but we'll see what else comes of it.

Then I found a mention in a different source that the missing persons cases of this guy AND another person (female) were no longer considered suspicious. Well now. It begins to fall into place, I believe.

Dude cuts out on the wife and family for an explainable overnighter with his side piece. Maybe they've got plans to run off together, maybe they just wanna bonk in a hotel for a day or two...either way, somehow it stretches out far enough that wife manages to create a shitstorm of media and police attention to the case, maybe outta actual naive concern, maybe outta calculated spite...who knows, my faith in the depths of a woman's scorn have no bounds...LOL...at any rate, this dude wakes up to see himself all over the news on the hour, and realizes that he's about to be outed as the POS he is.

So he offs himself. Police won't say what his cause of death was. But the fact that they are playing so close seems to point to that.

Anyhow. Interesting story. Still developing.

Got a better theory? Love to hear it. I'm pretty one-track when it comes to these things. People are generally pretty predictable.

Obviously he was abducted by aliens and failed some experiment so they threw him back.

Another twist would be cool, but I can't get past how a guy would feel to realize that while he thought the worst that could happen is his wife finds out, he comes to find the whole area aware of his antics and TV and cops and the whole damn internet and everything involved....NOBODY could handle that level of shame. Unless they were just a complete asshole to begin with. Maybe not even then....

But maybe not. Maybe her husband slit his throat or sumptin' :evil:

[emoji2] Husband? I was thinking gay lover. The wholesome family image was a front all along, but for the wife. She coerced him to go wherever it was he went, and the gay lesbian hit woman was waiting. She takes Mr. Hapless hostage and tortures him for a while, just for kicks. After she finally gets around to killing him, Mrs. Wholesome shows up pissed about being kept waiting. Little Miss Hitbitch goes missing... the story continues... :tongue:

He could have used the same excuse I kept using for 19+ years......
But do it in the daytime...and have some mud on your shoes when you get home...When your wife asks you where you've been..admit that you're sleeping with someone else.....when she sees the mud on your shoes ...she's gonna say..."You lying bastard...you've been playing golf"
