I found this web page helpful for trying to understand why there is such a big disconnect with some LE and other members of society. They list 10 traits. I posted # 8 along with the web page address: http://www.heavybadge.com/10reason.htm 8) No gray areas. The law enforcement officer works in a fact-based world with everything compared to written law. Right and wrong is determined by a standard. They have a set way of going about gathering the proper evidence for the law and can justify their actions because they represent the "good and right side." In the real world, clear rights and wrongs are not as likely to occur. The newspapers are an opinion-based system, the court system is an opinion-based system and, needless to say, relationship decisions and proper parenting techniques are opinion-based systems. Adjusting from right and wrong, black-and-white systems, to opinion-based systems is very difficult and requires a complete change in mental attitude.

Adjusting from right and wrong, black-and-white systems, to opinion-based systems is very difficult and requires a complete change in mental attitude. you obviously feel threatened by a fact-based approach to problem-solving, and have demonstrated your preference to work in the realm of imagination. it's more difficult to argue against fanciful imaginings, imo. right brained, left brained, male, female..or whichever combo...i sense you feel intimidated and threatened by what you perceive to be male authority figures. in fact, someone claiming to be "LE" in any forum may or may not be an authentic claim. still, you were motivated enough to link an outline of negative stereotyping of the role and personalities of police officers. i have seen this information presented here before; it is consistent with a group of women who fear and may have experienced victimization and violence in their personal lives. in fact, i'd wager it is the very reason they are here....they project their own fears of abduction, violence and serial killing onto MM.

Because the trail came to an end, Scarinza believes it is an indication she left the area in a car. Ok, now please use the exact quote instead of your interpretation of what was said. Because, what you typed is NOT WHAT WAS SAID! I know it would be nice to be able to "modify" statements to fit your theory, however it's not going to fly here... So let me clarify for you. No one has ever said that LE believes Maura left in a vehicle. The dog tracked down the road and ended it's track, for reasons only the dog knows. The track was 2 days after Maura went missing, not exactly a great scent left to track. The comment made by Scarinza was this: " Does that mean she got into a vehicle? Perhaps. Does that mean it wasn't a scent opportunity? That it had been too long to follow? Perhaps." Perhaps, perhaps not. It is obvious Scrainza does not know whether she got into a vehicle and is doing a pretty good job of straddling the fence, "maybe she did mayne she didn't." His comment when asked about her getting a ride, he said this: "My sense is that she might have gotten a ride." That is another way of saying, "she might not have gotten a ride, because I don't know." So for you to say that LE believes she left the scene in a vehicle is pretty inaccurate, isn't it? Nice try though, muddy the water and maybe people will believe your Bull. Sorry, not me.

Do some honest research and get back to us. Not that you have any credibility left. What FrmLE? What does that even mean? Where? In what capacity? Waterboarding at Guantanamo Bay?

Go seekers!-- there are many search engines and other ways to find out legitimate information if you put your mind to it.

The arrogance and rudeness that is spewed forth from the fingertips of FrmLE in his retirement from law enforcement makes Me happy he is no longer a cop. FrmLE..... You must have been a real cactus as a cop. I am sure your curbside manner left a lot to be desired. You sir are an ass to be polite. Did You leave of your own accord or were You tossed? Just Asking.!

Sorry, not me. again, i was surprised Scarinza uttered the suggestion that she might have accepted a ride. it was speculative, but i knew that phrasing would be a springboard for those pushing an abduction / homicide theory. sugar-coating doesn't influence comprehension here, and direct rebuttal is grounds for being judged as mean, rude, and for being "an ass" - with credit to Columbo. so be it.

The link was interesting and IMO, pro LE. When I cite some history on the forums and seek clarification you say, "oopsie, before my time". Some of us understand your posts regarding the CTRV killer and victimology. We get it. Completely. Some of us also understand who is former LE and who are impostors. Video et taceo.

John I understand a lot of what he has said and how he said it. In many cases I have said the same things in some cases virtually verbatim. I have a particularly low threshold for "stupid" and these forums through the years have produced more than their fair share of stupid. It is nice that someone else is doing some of the heavy lifting, and he is doing a remarkably good job of it. He has his facts straight, now how to investigate not speculate. And can put thoughts together logically and express himself very well. People should be listening, instead they want to argue. Oh, and I have never heard anyone state that Maura left in a car. I have heard repeated speculation, including from me that, that is a possibility based upon the way the dog appeared to act. I have never read any official who has stated that as fact. Ever! Bill
