The post-liking at 11 years old is an all-time dig-up, Madeline

Lawd this warrants a major investigation

Liking something that was posted in 2014 does not mean that he liked it in 2014.

Seems the most likely explanation is that years later after they met he scrolled through and liked some older posts, right?

Could also be true, yes. Didn’t consider that.

Does not discount the fact that, at minimum, he was a minor dating a college graduate — and, regardless of Mormonism or whatever people are saying about it, he’s been actively groomed based on the current evidence we have, which is a shame and warrants investigation.

I don’t disagree, just pointing out there’s a very simple explanation for that post. I’m sure the investigation will justifiably move forward as soon as he decides to press charges.

I’m not so sure he’d decide to press charges.

If he is indeed being groomed (and has been over a long period of time), then he would likely develop some level of attachment — Stockholm syndrome — to her. Especially considering the controlling nature and whatnot based on what we know right now.

I died at — An email is where I unsubscribe from a restaurant’s updates I went to one time that had off-brand Heath Ceramics plates and mismatched pink tile in the bathroom to bait me to take a selfie in, not a medium to tear my family apart.

The age difference/dating history is gross, but I'm so intrigued by the Mormon angle! Is she Mormon? Just because the location tag on the IG picture is a Mormon church that doesn't necessarily mean that he's now Mormon. (That's kind of a stretch for me.) And honestly, it would be fairly easy for another Mormon in his local area to confirm whether or not he is a member of the Mormon church.

I may have just gotten more information from a source that confirms that she’s Mormon so do with that information what you will…

Gotcha! My point is that it doesn't necessarily mean that he is, but I'm sure that info with be verified/debunked sooner rather than later.

Oh yikes this poor kid 😳 The prom thing is… wild! My kids’ high school only allows students of that school to attend prom, which seems really strict, but I guess we avoid the whole fully adult woman groomer date issue, so that’s a plus.

Meh. More rotten behavior by people. Seems like she set out to be an NBA WAG and also use him as a poster boy for Mormonism. If this kid has any brains he'd ditch her ASAP - before he signs a pro contract, marries her and has offspring.

Heard she was his babysitter at some point? Don't have a lot of proof, but heard from someone that coached against him in HS.

Okay, when you said May-December I was thought you were going to say that she was 35 or something.

Wow! Great reporting on this! Didn't know about the high school prom thing. Super weird. Is it legal for someone of her age to date him in high school before he's 18? Kinda messed up.
