Where's Lisa?

A local Kansas City missing child case has now moved to a national story.  Ten month old Lisa Irwin was supposedly abducted from her crib sometime between last Monday evening and 4:00 AM Tuesday morning.  The parent's story goes the father came home from work around 4:00 AM and found the child's bedroom window open, the front door unlocked and Lisa was gone.  Sorry parents, I ain't buying that story.  Especially since you recently added that 3 cell phones were also stolen.  The story doesn't make sense. 

First, stealing a sleeping child from their bedroom just doesn't happen often.  Sure, there was the Lindbergh baby and Samantha Smart, but that is about it.  That's 2 out of a couple million supposed kidnappings.  The other 2 million times ends up being the parents or another family member did the snatching.  There is a good reason for that.  It can;t be that easy to kidnap a sleeping child from their bedroom.  Even if the perpetrator manages to quietly enter the room, the kid is going to scream their lungs out when they see it isn't Mommy picking them up.  And then the perp walks out the front door?  I don't think so.

But is gets more unbelievable.  Not only are we to believe the perp walked out the front door with a quiet kid, they also stopped somewhere along the way to steal two working cell phones, and one old non-working one.  Who keeps all their phones at one location?  Who leaves a non-working phone in the same place they keep the working ones?  And unless the perp is "box of rocks" stupid, a cell phone is tha last thing they would steal.  Turn it on and the cops show up a few minutes later.  I think the cell phones are the break the police will eventually use to solve this case.  The question they will answer is why were they included in the kidnapping story?  But it could take a few more days.

Currently we are in the hysterical Mother phase of the case.  Lisa's Mother can't speak without breaking down.  Remembering Susan Smith (who offed her 3 boys), you gotta wonder if she is hysterical because her child is missing, or from the trauma of some crime she committed to the child. 

I'm liking the Mother for the deed.  She had the time and opportunity while hubby was working.  If I am right, the case will soon move to the Orange phase.  That is when the mom and dad are marched off to arraignment in handcuffs wearing orange jumpsuits.
