I want to see justice done and I want Christina found. However, there are almost as many theories as people. Some people's minds seem to function in a more linear way, and those are folks who line up all their ducks, make up their minds and deviate little once they post definitively. Some people's minds function more laterally. They look at all possibilities, gather sometimes disparate information, and resist closure.
I can discipline myself to think in a linear way, but I function more naturally as a lateral thinker. So what do I believe? I am still undecided about some things so I decided to clarify my thoughts by putting things in percentages.
A. I think EA and EA alone is responsible for the abduction of Christina and whatever happened to her subsequently: I rate this 85% certainty.
B. EA was responsible for the abduction of Christina and had a partner to subsequent violence to her: 10%.
C. EA was responsible for what happened to Christina, but there is an accessory after the fact: 15%
D. EA is completely innocent. SODDI and put her in his trunk to frame him: 0%
None of that deals with motive. I absolutely think motive is useful and juries like it, but you just don't need it for a conviction. Sometimes it is just not possible to know motive.
Well, that is where I stand, in case anyone was wondering. Future speculations probably won't me I will change my mind. However, I certainly am enjoying getting to know all of you -- however your brains work.
(Yes, I know the percentages don't add up. I don't really do math.) :blushing:
