Kenia Monge’s Parents: A Study in Honesty

 

I watched Kenia’s parents and while I doubt they have ever been suspected in her disappearance, I just wanted to say that I see no hot spots of any kind. They are a good example of honesty.  When you watch the two speak, they each listen to the other and give us nonverbals that they agree with what the other is saying.  They have tried to convince themselves that they believe someone is holding Kenia hostage, which is a normal and natural coping mechanism.  The mom’s sadness expressions are held in check because of that belief.  She won’t let herself go to that horrible place.

I also watched Kenia’s boyfriend, Laith Essmail, in two videos, and he does not give me any pings either in those two videos. He seems honest and resigned that something is wrong. Considering what has been released in the news about Travis Forbes, it is not unreasonable for Laith to think the worst.

The main suspect in my eyes is clearly Travis Forbes. See my analysis of him here.
