Did it ever occur to you that Craig might have wanted to get caught? I know it might sound hard to believe but it's possible. If Kelly did do it I can only imagine how he must have felt. He has 3000 miles to think a lot about what happened.
Excellent point. Here's what I shared at the GeneX board:
I want you to consider these facts:
1) They told multiple individuals what their plans were *after* the car was burned.
2) They did not leave the country immediately, nor is there any evidence that they even attempted to do so.
3) They told people of their intent to go to Boston and then that's exactly where they went.
4) When they were finally apprehended, they were discovered in a very public place, having made no attempts to alter or conceal their identity.
5) During the time they were on the run, they were using their own cell phones to contact people.
All five of those - separately and together - indicate to me that their desire to flee was NOT sincere. Based on these five facts, I'm ready to argue that they actually wanted to get caught. Once they realized just how much of a downward spiral they were in, they decided to leap for a safety net, but just didn't know how the landing would take place.
If they had honestly hoped to flee, they would've headed directly to Mexico or Canada and never looked back. Stopping at Nail-o-Rama is not the activity of someone looking to get away with a crime.
