I understand what you're saying. But, who cares whether this woman's parents would've been mad or relieved?

The law is very clear to the point where we don't have to care about her relationship with her family and her fiance. We just have to consider the crime at hand and that's what she'll HOPEFULLY be prosecuted for. I support her prosecution 100%.

:)

if i was the fiance, I'd dump her. Lovely example of her character and this marriage will work out. Things get too stressful or if the pressure builds up, don't worry honey I won't talk about it... I'll just hop a bus to Vegas and tell you some dirty mexicans kidnapped me. See you in a week!

I don't BLAME her for getting cold feet, even though he seemed like a good guy on tv.

I don't BLAME her for going to Las Vegas, even though she didn't find it necessary to leave a note.

I don't BLAME her for all of the police and time it took from other real abductions, even though that would seem like a forseeable (sp?) event. (Because, that was her family not her)

I think, however, that she should be convicted of, and forgive my lack of legal vocabulary, filing a false police report. (or what ever you call it when she told the New Mexico police that she was kidnapped and spent all night giving them this false story)

She is obviously disturbed. I mean, if I was gonna run away from my wedding I would go to Hawaii or on a cruise or some place pampering like that. NEW MEXICO? I know she originally went to Las Vegas but on a BUS? wierd. But, just because she is crazy doesnt mean she shouldnt have to pay for what SHE did.

Edited for spelling OK OK I CANT SPELL without spell check

Amen. Like Cream, I am happy and relieved she is alive, so each and every wedding guest and especially the 14 (WTF??) bridesmaids can personally come to her door and kick her ass.

Yes, her family sounds like a bunch of idiots (this "rescheduling" business)...yes, it's hard to get off the wedding frenzy merry-go-round. But when she allowed this to look like a kidnapping, lots of other people got involved that have never done ANYTHING to her. It's just completely selfish. If this was the only way she could get out of it, fine, but let people know you are safe and left of your own free will. Anyone who can't do that doesn't deserve any sympathy.

The girl next door to my parents got married the same month I did. At the wedding, her father said to my parents, "Lori asked me to call it all off last night! Can you believe it? I told her that I already had too many deposits down, and she had to do it!"

My parents were stunned. Lori (who is absolutely gorgeous, yet so sweet!) had already survived a form of cancer, and we had also heard her fiance verbally abuse her. If she wanted to call it off, she had good reasons.

I promised myself that day to NEVER force a child of mine to marry, under any circumstances!

But back to this particular scenario - again, honesty would have served her well. Had she been like Lori, and asked her dad to call it off, or sat down with her fiance and asked him to postpone or cancel the wedding, I'd be in her corner. What she did was cowardly and cruel.

She should get in some form of punishment for all the cops wasted time. If I were her fiance i would dump her in a second because of her little runaway act news people and regular people were comparing him to Scott Peterson. That is pretty harsh, and I bet some of that will still stick with him even though she was found alive and it was all her fault.

I think that by running away, she dumped him.

No kidding. All the people saying that he should dump her crack me up, because HELLO, she clearly didn't want him anyway.

But she claims the wedding is still on just postponed.

Great minds in orgs that start in Delta and Sigma think alike :D

I know, but people are acting like him dumping her would punish her. She faked this whole thing to avoid marrying him, so how is him leaving going to punish her?

I think she is punished by looking like a dumb ass bitch on national tv. I just think he would be dumb to stay with her after what she did to him and everyone else.

Oh, I definitely agree with you, and I think he would be dumb to stay with her too.

I'm talking about the people (not necessarily on GC) who say things like, "He should dump her, that would show her," when clearly she ran away from marrying him, so she pretty much already did the dumping.

Does that make sense?

Yes. Makes sence. If she doesn't want to marry him she should end it offically and quit saying it is still on. She probably will end up marrying him unless he dumps her offically so she doesn't look even more like a bitch, and that is no reason to marry anyone.

honestly, i think she should be punished, too. i don't care if she was being pushed into the marriage or not. she could have made a phone call to a good friend and said she needed to get out town for a while and wasn't going to tell where she was going. the friend could have told the parents before they called the police. it sounds premeditated. she had cash for the bus ticket...and on her person when they found her in nm.


on cnn yesterday, a criminal profilier said that if they don't punish her for this, then when people truly go missing, the community is less like to be supportive of the search.

I definitely agree!

I think ADqtPiMel made a good point. How can he dump someone that ran away from him?

I don't see the point of charging her. I can understand her panicing after the nationwide attention the case got.

There was a case in Philadelphia years ago where a woman from India was being forced into an arranged marriage. I believe she was a Temple Student. She went "missing" and the woman-hunt started. A few days into it she quietly contacted police and told them she was safe and why she was hiding from her parents.

Looks like she might face charges:

I'm wondering if she didn't want that mega-wedding that she was going to have, but didn't know what to tell her parents or her fiance. I family friend married recently, and her fiance's mom pretty much dictated what needed to be done for the wedding (in Chinese culture, the guy's family traditionally arranges everything, including footing the bill). The girl and her fiance had almost no say, except for who the bridesmaids and groomsmen were going to be and what the wedding gown looked like.

:D

The guy is a tool!

Also he is either a dumb ass, P-whipped or both!

Dude, she humiliated your ass by doing the runaway bride isht! RUN like hell man!

He may be dumb, but I still want to hear what he has to say about it.
Supposedly, he will be on hannity & colmes tonight.
I don't think he has said anything pubically since he found out...

Yea, did anyone listen to Hannity today . . . . he seemed to really take a crazy stand on the "runaway bride"'s side. Like he was saying "has anyone ever made a mistake before?" And that we all need to give her a break.

Give me a break its not like she was being beat or like she was an 18 year old child bride or anything. Spear me she was going to have a huge wedding and took the time to save up the money to buy a bus ticket to LAS VEGAS. Also, she left some of her clothes where she knew people would find them ( and a lock of her hair) so that everyone would assume she was abducted.

No, this girl needs to be punished even if it is just community service for a year, so that she can see what people with real problems have to do.

boo hoo. Also is it me or does she have crazy eyes?

Also, whether or not she is prosicuted (sp?) that guy is crazy if he marries her.

If he was already married to her then I could understand him staying with her but he isnt married to her he can still RUN. And, if he does stay with her then he has only himself to blame when she looses it again.

Last I heard this morning Las Vegas (or was it New Mexico?) was not going to press charges because she was "an individual in crisis"

Umm.. sorry... an "individual in crisis" is someone who REALLY WAS KIDNAPPED.

I hope Georgia prosecutes her.

This guy is mentally challenged if the reports are true about him still wanting to marry her. People were already calling foul play on HIM comparing him to Scott Peterson!!!!

ROTFL!!!!! All morning, the disc jockeys I listen to were calling her "Crazy Eyes" and playing that song!

I think she should be sentenced to only have two bridesmaids, invite only 20 people, and she should have to wear one of those prison-orange jumpsuits - IF her fiance isn't just trying to save her some face and really is still willing to marry her!

And her daddy better not pay one cent to bail her out!!

Is it just me or does he looks a little...slow??

I think it would be funny if they start planning the wedding again and he bolts like she did minus the whole search party

i honestly don't remember seeing any pictures of him so i don't really know..

and yea that would be funny if he did that to her.

on the radio just yesterday some girl said a guy left her at the alter. one of her friends went to his apartment and it had been vacated! :o :eek: So he had apparently been thinking of leaving for awhile..

How did I miss that she lied about being abducted? I guess I can no longer defend her, lol.

If her daddy's paying for the wedding, then he can also pay for the extra overtime and resources spent in finding his dodgy daughter.

16 bridesmaids... YGBSM! More reason for me to elope to Vegas - and that's if I ever get married! :D

I heard on the news this morning that this is not the first time Crazy Eyes has gotten cold feet. She was engaged before, and called it all off at the last minute.

It's not only the fact that she lied about the whole incident; it's the reality that the fiancee was the first suspect. Not only did his future wife run out on him the day before, but he suddenly had people questioning whether he was responsible for a kidnapping.

Getting cold feet is fine - it happens, you deal with it. What is not fine is making your family and friends think you're kidnapped and putting your future spouse in a position where he's under suspicion.

Maybe I just feel this way because I'm going to be a groom in a couple of months and would be furious if I was questioned by police because my future bride faked her kidnapping.

With all the crazy feminists running around screaming "murderer" and "rapist" at husbands with missing wives, it's only natural that the police feel forced to confront the husbands.

-Rudey

Crazy eyes.. haha.. ok I'm not alone, that one picture they kept showing of her was just bad.

I saw on the today show this morning where in the interview he had plans to still marry her. He is just crazy. For her to run like that, all kinds of red flags should be going off in his mind.

There was a guy on the radio this morning who had an interesting theory. Since Crazy Eyes has cancelled another wedding, and the fiance said on Friday that he thought she was okay, and would be found soon, maybe they had this planned. Maybe she thinks she's Julia Roberts and is trying to get some milage out of the publicity.

Don't know that I agree, but it is an interesting theory.

I completely agree...I would just be rather heated if I got questioned by police, and then all of a sudden the fiancee comes back and says "Oops, when I said kidnapping, I meant to say cold feet."

That's exactly what my brother-in-law said at lunch on Saturday.

I didnt hear that either. That only proves my point he gets what he deserves if the takes her back. I mean, she is obviously off in the head.

I called a national radio show today to give my 2 cents. The host kept saying the the groom "gave a vow" before God that he was going to stick by her. HELLO, they arent married they were engaged that guy needs to run like the wind.

The host also asked what would I do if my husband left me. I said, that was different I actually did say my vows before God. Engagement is a time to prepare for marrage and allows for the possibility for "unengagement."

Run "future Mr crazy eyes" RUN.

I haven't seen it in print, but it came out on the morning news when I was eating my breakfast bagel :p

The second I heard it I instantly thought of "Runaway Bride" the movie :p

I don't know how people come up with these ideas but I wish I did. I would be rich...

that is ridiculous. i find it hard to believe that the toast really came out this way. he/she probably used a knife or fork to make those scary eyes.
