Carlee Russell Search History Reveals Possible Abduction Angle Before Disappearance
22-year-old Carlee Russell has been missing from Plano, Texas since July 2019. New details recently released by Plano police reveal that Russell made abduction and kidnapping-related internet searches in the days before her disappearance.
Carlee Russell made abduction-related internet searches before her disappearance
According to the search warrant affidavit obtained by police, Russell conducted Google searches for topics like “what happens when you’re kidnapped”, “people who were kidnapped and survived” and “could someone disappear without a trace” – all within two weeks of her vanishing.
The searches suggest Russell may have been concerned about the possibility of abduction or faked abductions. They raise the question of whether her eventual disappearance could have actually been a planned abduction or kidnapping.
Russell told police she was kidnapped and blindfolded
Russell was last seen on July 5, 2019 leaving her apartment around 9:30 pm. When she failed to show up for work, her family reported her missing on July 8.
In an interview with Plano police the next day, Russell claimed she had been kidnapped from her apartment complex parking lot on the night of July 5. She said her abductors blindfolded her and drove her around for several hours before dropping her off at an unknown location.
Police released other details about what occurred before Russell’s disappearance
Police revealed that on the day Russell went missing, cameras at her apartment complex captured a man waiting in the parking lot around dusk. He matched the description of one of the men Russell claimed had abducted her.
However, police have not been able to confirm Russell’s kidnapping claims. Her interview with police was the last reported contact from Russell, leaving many questions unanswered about her true whereabouts and circumstances surrounding her disappearance.
In summary, Carlee Russell’s abduction-related internet searches in the days before she vanished, combined with her claims of being kidnapped on the night of her disappearance, suggest that abduction may have played a role in her ongoing missing persons case. However, many crucial details remain unconfirmed as Russell has not been seen or heard from since that police interview one day after she went missing.
