If his parents were only a few minutes behind him, wouldn't they have heard something? I imagine that somebody would scream if they were falling off a cliff. Wouldn't there be some sounds in a kidnapping?
Just based on what we know so far, it seems kidnapping is far-fetched. That's assuming the authorities don't know something/haven't found anything that they aren't sharing with the general public. Always a possibility.
I tend to think August walked away. I can't help but think he'd have been found by now if he fell off a cliff, but who knows? I can understand why local LE would downplay the danger posed by the cliffs on that hiking trail- don't want to scare off tourists, after all- but his father seems to agree with the local authorities. He has said multiple times that there was no danger. The hiking trail was safe. Certainly doesn't rule out the possibility of an accident, but as of now, I suspect he walked away.
Me too. We never know why people do the things that they do. We look at it from outward appearances, a kid who had his whole life ahead of him, looking forward to college....but we don't know what goes on inside of a person. My sisters boyfriend got a full scholarship to the college of his dreams and then took his life just weeks before his high school graduation.
