Your remark is offensive to me, I am a native of Sweetwater, and do not consider myself or anyone else to be dumb. Con men work in many places. I think you owe the people of Sweetwater an apology.

Not all from Sweetwater are idiots, you are only making yourself look immature for saying such rude comments.

Ok ppl. Let's stick to the topic! I know the girl that is with him. When you grow up in a small town like Sweetwater, you look for better things. In this case more money. She is with this guy to have a better life, not knowing that he was a con. You can be from anywhere and be fooled. I feel so sorry for the people that was con my this man and I am prying for Donna who is on the run with him!

So did this, Donna, leave her 5 day a week job to go on the run with this guy? Oh wait a minute, she probably didn't work at all. This explains why she could just pick up, leave her home, friends, etc and take off. I have always wondered how this worked. I guess since I have a life, friends, job, home, responsibilities I will never get to experience that thrill. She is an accomplice.

Can't blame the girl for running off with the guy afterall he wasn't her cousin and he did buy her the first pair of shoes she ever had. Afterall this guy just wondered in off the interstate.

I'm so glad people find it appropriate to show their own stupidity by stating their "opinions" even when they know nothing of the facts. Donna met him online, he didn't just jump off the interstate! Oh yeah, we do wear shoes, most of the time, when it is below 55 degrees. You know it's funny, people all over the country feel this way about people in Tennessee in general. Not just in Sweetwater. So if you are a Tennessean...... Jeez, what a jerk!

Where to begin! I am wondering why you are so quick to judge people! Could you be lonely? Are you unhappy with your life that you have to put ppl down to make yourself fell better? WOW! I am going to pray for you. One day, I hope, that you or your family never goes through something lke this! Think of her mom and how she has no idea where her prego daughter is and if she is ok. Everyday, it goes through her mind about if he made Donna go with him? Ever though she didnt go on her own. Maybe by gun point? I will pray for you and your neg. outlook on everything! I will also pray for her safety!

I feel so much better knowing he "didn't just jump off the interstate." Meeting him "on line" is so much safer..........LOL
