Thank you for the coffee.
I’m not understanding all the emphasis on the fact that it was a Wednesday. There could have been someone in town collecting mail and watering plants for someone who was on vacation or someone who was in town to grab some Casey’s pizza. Who knows? The list of possibilities is almost endless and IMO, we can’t exclude this one: He was in town on Wednesday to abduct Mollie. The only thing that stands out to me as to why it happened on a Wednesday was that AH, BJ and DJ were all gone and she was there alone. Or, it’s just a huge coincidence.
Also, if Mollie disappeared Wednesday evening, how does that indicate the perp had Wednesday off? He could very well have worked that day and been on his way home.
