I will add,
Many POC--hell most missing people don't have a lot of evidence to work with that's easy to track. Many people literally disappear from the face of the earth. We are spreading the word about a father who disappeared here in my city when he was dropping his daughter off at Florida State Univ. They are from NC. 50 something old wt man just disappeared 5 weeks ago now. History of mental health issues/depression that he managed to cope with. No trail...no trace. Camera's saw him leaving the hotel for a walk. Wife says he left for walks ALL THE TIME so it wouldn't have been unusual on its face. Foul play? Suicide? Dogs, police, search folk have found nothing. No money spent. Never checked out of the hotel. Nothing.
This particular white couple had their travels documented with followers and the whole 9. So it not hard to work this case. They are throwing everything at it, and its performative. They are gonna make it seem like they have done a whole lot when as tragic as it is, a lot of eyes are on it. I remember when that black girl died in the freezer and it was investigated and all over the news. It got a LOT of coverage and we were all detectives with our theories. We never really knew what else had happened and there was no hard evidence that she had been assaulted. As it stands she found herself drunk or high in that freezer and died. Its still mysterious but it got a lot of coverage. That's too few and far between, but it started out on Social Media...Just like this couple. They will "hop on" anything for looks.
