What I’m saying is I think the public, myself included, can sometimes be too quick to say, “Well, that woman must’ve been attacked.” Except, there is no proof of that. In fact, I think the argument can be made that if nothing is left behind on a street on which a person disappeared, then the person was most likely NOT attacked. The person could’ve been forced—by a person with a gun or knife. But that is different than an outright attack in which an injury is caused right away.
Why is this important? Because whether a person was attacked or not can tell us a lot about why the disappearance could’ve happened.
