People may not know this, but she’s a nurse so I’m sure she’s used to having to perform under pressure/ stressful situations. She also doesnt owe anyone a performance of grief

Grief isn’t crying 24/8. She looks numb and stoic. Grief can also look like that.

Why did he say Katie was missing too? They had never even met her until that day. How would he even have known that ?? That’s so bizarre for him to have said .

That’s a crazy assumption to say “we haven’t heard from him” when the friends had his phone

Yall saying she isn’t grieving she legit broke down in the second video.. and yall don’t know what she went through these last 2 weeks. She probably broke down before she even came to this.. yall don’t know grief.. yall can be calm for 1 hour and then break down and hour later..

i'm always disturbingly, amazed at families' ability to hold it together and do press conferences & interviews. I would be in shambles with several months of grieving

All I can say is the mom is VERY strong & positive in these interviews. I’d be so broken & angry I wouldn’t be able to speak at all
