This entire situation is just weird. Do they think he car ran off the road and is hidden in brush? Do they think his entire family was abducted?

😕

I thought about both things. Maybe they got in an accident and the car is hidden, but it has been several days now. If the family was kidnap I guess a Ransom note would come.

Lets think positive and they will all turn up ok.

ransom to who? you dont kidnap an entire family, there is noone to send the ransom note.
 
Update 2: According to Crave, officials investigating the case have narrowed their search to a stretch of Oregon's Highway 38, which is on the route that the family would most likely have taken to get to the Gold Beach motel where they had reservations.

How about a ranson to other family members or even Cnet
 
I don't want to be too pessemistic or harsh, but it really doesn't look good for them. Editor's of gadget websites don't get abducted for ransom in America, the potential monetary return is not worth it. Third world country? sure.

Considering that the guy reviews mobile electronics, like cell phones, for a living, and is an editor for a publication that surely sends him to meetings and conferences, he most likely has at least 2, maybe 3, cell phones, in addition to his wife's. This makes "lost in the woods" a not very likely scenario.

I have a feeling they either crashed their car or were robbed.

🙁

Just wanted to bump this story.

I just read that the Oregon police have come up with no traces of the Kim's at all. Its now 1 week missing.
 
this is sad....

if the police gave a damn, they would be found, dead or alive a lot sooner

I surely hope for the latter.

Foul play???
Perhaps the husband had a major spat with the wife, the marriage is on the rocks, but the husband can't bear to see it dissolve without "settling" everything.
Just a hunch.
 
Update 6: Sightings and a credit card receipt have apparently last placed the Kim family at a Denny's in Roseburn, Oregon, north of current search efforts. The search is continuing further north into Oregon, and away from Hightway 42 and onto Highway 38. For fliers, info, and other ways to get involved, please also see jamesandkati.com.

I dunno, I suspect the friend in oregon or whatever who last saw them. He just looks wierd.

anyhow cnet now writes that credit card charges put them heading, instead of south. They apparently went to a denny's.
 
They're probably not even lost. They probably don't have access to email and/or they're cell phones are dead. They'll probably get home and find all this mayhem that has ensued.

For a week? Do you really think that a person whose entire career is based on technology could have absolutely no contact with anyone for a week?
