Critical Information

I was watching GMA this morning and there was a story about 38-year-old former probation officer, Kristi Cornwell, being abducted while walking down a street in Blairsville, Georgia, while she was talking to her boyfriend on her cellphone. She had already alerted him to the possibility that she was being followed. The police and GBI are investigating, but so far, they've found nothing. When I watched this story, I have to admit that I was somewhat baffled. She worked in law enforcement, for God sakes. I would think that her first inclination, if she thought she was in any kind of danger, would have been to describe the car and its occupants to the person on the other end of the phone, and to make it obvious that she was doing so. Maybe it wouldn't have changed their minds, but it's worth a try. And it's the one tool you have in that crucial moment. Just a couple of facts would surely help.
