So, like many Americans, I've followed this Hannah Anderson kidnapping case. Apologies if there is some Boers & Bernstein thread pertaining to it already. I haven't seen any threads about it. And even if there are...whatever. I'm starting this one.

I haven't liked this story from the start. Mainly because of things surrounding Hannah Anderson. Her little brother and mother are dead, completely burned along with her house. But that isn't the story.

This is.


Oh, it's not just the Duckface Selfie.

But there are plenty of them out there...



How about this?



And what's with this?



What is she, a TMZ celebrity, or a kidnapping victim?

Why does this story have this angle? She's come out publicly very quickly, she doesn't seem to have much of a reaction to nearly her whole family being killed. She says the guy who kidnapped her "got what he deserved", which is fine. He probably did. I'm interested to find out what these "letters" that have been recovered by police actually say.

I just don't feel a single thing for this girl. Not that I condone what the guy did or anything--so keep the moral high horses in the stable. I just don't know why photos of her in poses like that have been released. She's 16 years old. Why is she being portrayed as some kind of sex symbol? That seems to be why the guy became infatuated with her in the first place, I would assume?

This whole thing just has never set right with me. But I do feel bad about the kid who died mostly. His story is just buried in a lot of makeup, sex poses, and blond hair. It's a shame.

She probably used the guy to kill her family.

Now that he's dead, there's no one to contradict the "kidnapping" story.

TP, i normally would shoot down theories like that because it's a horrible story. but you know what, you're not the first person to make a comment like that and i actually am very suspicious of the whole thing.

girls that do shit like that are hardly "innocent". there's more to this story and i do think that the guy being killed probably made this girl smile inside.

i love being a cynic in cases like this. cheers.

Cops already found 14 letters she had written to the kidnapper. Also, cops found that the two exchanged several text messages and phone calls the day of the kidnapping. Story isn't over yet.

i hope not, BC, but they're saying they won't release the contents of those letters...

The cops also said she is a victim AFTER discovering those letters. It wouldn't be the first time the cops screwed up.

This girl is clearly a huge sociopath and I have a difficult time believing she's totally innocent in this whole thing.

Don't disagree with anything written here, and as a parent that is really disturbing.

Also, I don't mean you have to be a parent for this to be disturbing, to anybody this should raise red flags.

Either she did it or she's got no soul

I mean that last answer is "cray" for someone whos supposedly mourning

and if you'd read my initial post, KS, you'd see that's exactly my point. where is her reaction to that?

boom. thanks, RPB.

you've already shown more emotional output than she has, and that was her own family. i've known people that have lost family members to tragedy. they dont show up wearing cutesie sunglasses and revealing lime tops. ever.

i'm not exactly going there, KS. i'm just suspicious of her "innocence" in everything.

i think i'm pretty clear in where i'm coming from. this is a 16 year old girl who is more interested in preserving herself than she is her family.

she is all about image, KS. nothing more.

of course they are. would you think they would own up if the letters indicted her? "Oh yes we just dedicated all this manpower and money to this search to find out this 16 year old blond bombshell was behind the whole thing. Whoops."

the point is, there is something not quite right about the story. and like TP said, it may never be revealed because it's not a good story. it would destroy the fabric of the "wholesome" story of this girl.

don't believe the hype.

Nothing drives me more crazy than when someone says "This isn't how I'd react if my Dad and Brother were brutally sodomized by Hawk Harrelson while watching White Sox baseball, so obviously they're guilty". Like you said, you just don't know. Plus, how she's acting at the moment is normal for what she went through according to psychologists.

My issue is that she's a psychopathic narcissist who's getting off too easily. I don't usually care too much about these kinds of cases but this one bugs me. It seems as if the police are willing to just close this case and not look into anything when there's some things that need some answers.

Why were there 13 phone calls between her and the guy before the family was killed? What were in those letters she wrote to him? The details of their relationship is very fascinating and should be explored.

I'll give her the benefit of the doubt as of now that she's not the mastermind of this whole thing, it's just too far fetched at this point. He was a pedo, a total creep; but she was probably manipulating him for a long time, she knew he always had a "crush" on her as she put it. Just because she's 16 doesn't mean she's too young to know the fine art of female manipulation. He was allowed to take her on vacations all alone, she obviously got whatever she wanted from him. Who knows, maybe they been fucking for years now. They found used condoms at his place so they were obviously fucking, whether it be rape or consensual. He was so in love with her that he wanted to save the rubbers afterwards, isn't that adorable?

This is too interesting of a case to be closed without answering the major questions first.

you're the same person who can't understand how catholicism works or why religion doesn't work the way you think it should.

why did amy grossberg leave a baby to die in a dumpster? because she had a heart of gold?

give me a break, KS.

and why would they do that? so they could implicate themselves that they made a mistake and killed the wrong man? the cops will protect anything they can to make the story air tight. you can't be that naive, KS.

if there was anything that made this story in the favor of the killer, these cops would be toast. they killed the guy. the point is, this girl is not innocent. she hasn't once come out and said "how dare they post those pictures of me" or said anything against how she's been portrayed, and she should know by now what's going on. she's already changed her story from not knowing her family was dead to knowing they had been bound to a house that was going to be burned.

i'm saying the only truth in this case is that the real victims are the brother and the mother who were burned to death. how is that being a cock?

W_Z wins by submission

I hope he is,too. This story is sick enough without the young girl being involved. Still,her behavior is bizzare to say the least. W_Z stated the family used to let this guy take her on vacations with him???
I find that part really strange and where is this girl's dad in all this? He should be guiding his daughter right now.

i didn't mean to come to egypt in all of this...i am just suspicious. i think theres enough evidence to justify it. if i'm wrong, i'd be more relieved than anything because it is a tragic story. hope you had a good rest of your evening as well, KS.

Yeah,there is something not right about all of this. If she was so freaked out by the guy why did her parents keep allowing access to her? If there is stuff in the letters and texts/emails they will eventually come out through freedom of information acts. Some author will get them. I think she is involved someway she just got scaed when it turned ultra violent so quick.

If I heard that some 40 year old wanted to "hang with" my teenaged daughter,the police would be called because there would be one dead 40 year old.

The headline on NBC news right now "'Every moment is difficult': Hannah Anderson eases back into life" Uhhhh, Hannah. At least from looking at your Twitter and FB, it doesn't seem like every moment is difficult.

I guess we can all agree that she is a terrible role model for teenagers whose families have been murdered.
