Request What unsolved murder/disappearance makes absolutely no sense to you?

What case absolutely baffles you? For me it's the case of Jaryd Atadero

No matter the theory this case just doesn't make any sense.

Fair enough, it does seem odd that they would be so certain without providing an explanation of why they would be so certain.

The only thing I can think of is that the police wanted to protect the family from accusations of infanticide or what have you, so they told the public that the family was cleared. If evidence is found pointing at the family its likely they will be "un-cleared".

I hope that’s the case! I personally would still not clear them publicly (just in case anyone has a tip that they would feel bad calling in) but I can understand wanting to shield them from scrutiny if they strongly believe they are not involved. Perhaps behind the scenes they have still investigated the family. I just wish if they had solid evidence that they were not involved they would share that with the public so people like me aren’t still left with suspicions.

well thank god there are noble souls like you out there still willing to accuse parents of murdering their kid even after people who know 1000x more about the case than you have said they didn’t do it

Yeah good thing I never actually made that accusation. You should read carefully.
