I think you have a lack of understanding. The police don't ignore someone who is missing because they think the story doesn't add up. They are still going to conduct a search. That's what I said and that's what you are missing. It doesn't matter if they thought the whole baby thing was "out there" the girl was missing.
No you have a lack of understanding...including nuance.
No one said the police were not going to search. The implication was the police were going through the motions while simultaneously withholding information from the public that would support a hoax.
That is how investigations work...especially howprosecutions built
The police knew very early things were suspect...
So to the point of the tweet...yes the joke is on the public given there was an "abductor" on the loose...and the family went on Good Morning TV...and Beyonce mom made silky comments...even though the police knew that wasn't the case
