Were There Any Real Chaperones from Alabama in Aruba?

Recently I had lunch with another pastor and the topic of the missing girl from Alabama came up.

I mentioned several scenarios about what I thought could have happened and why.

When the absence and/or hands off approach of the chaperones and classmates was brought to my attention, nothing else seem to make much sense.

Ever since our lunch on this past Thursday, every update on the case seems to confirm the thought that since the students had already graduated the sense of oversight was reduced to the mindset of "you are grown now, so do what you want".

There were over 120 students for only 7 chaperones.

Clearly the school district and/or group providing oversight to the group is going to be sued and/or needs to be.
