He wasn’t lured to London
Simply because it was a Friday.
Like I said on the other post very rarely do schools call after school to notify the kid has t turned up it’s usually after 9am once all the teaches in the building have submitted there register. Why would a groomer risk having Andrew parents notified almost instantly or before lunch that Andrew didn’t go school + they would have calculated that Andrew would be there just before lunch time.
And in central London u can’t just grab him and throw him in a car or van so it would take him several hours to do so not saying they would instantly know that he went to London but it would mean they would automatically think the dad ain’t the one who did cos he’s at work so they would automatically assume a kidnapping.
Also trying to convince Andrew to go on the Friday would possibly signal red flags to Andrew he would have to be persistent in trying to make him go maybe a master manipulator could do such things but I still think Andrew would be suspicious especially if it was someone he met for 2 weeks at a gifted programme or however long it was.
Everything he did that morning shows he planned a day out just because we don’t have any police confirmation dont mean we can’t theorise and come to a collective agreement.
There was so many things that specific day that would lure Andrew the new psp,live performances and so much were happening and a very calculated young child like Andrew would think he would be safe because of the big city and tourist and people.
And he didn’t take all his money because he wasn’t planning to spend all of it.
If he planned to run away he definitely would taken the 100 and I think if he saw the interviews of his dad saying we haven’t changed the locks and that they miss him I think he would definitely come back.
He got kidnapped we just don’t got confirmation.
