I am very concerned too because of the lack of tips. They may be deep in the woods somewhere.

At this point using the FBI list would really do the trick at this point.

I think the FBI Top 10 list would actually be a good idea here. he's wanted on multiple charges in this case. Not that "just kidnapping" isn't bad, but when sexual abuse to believed to be possibly involved too, it raises the stakes. I honestly believe if America's Most Wanted was still on the air, Elizabeth would have been recovered by now. Unfortunately, we don't have that weekly breaking news crime show anymore. No disrespect to Crime Watch Daily, it's one of my favorite shows, but it doesn't have the viewership or name brand AMW had.
i've also read authorities believe Cummins researched teen marriage and "age of consent" online, which is also very troubling. Besides the woods, my other fear is Cummins may want to take Elizabeth to another country where age of consent laws aren't as strict and/or hope to stay on the run long enough where wherever they are they could get legally married. it would also be unfortunately pretty easy to just create false identities, pretend Elizabeth is older and marry her anyway regardless of county.
This whole situation is not healthy, which is an obvious understatement.

This whole situation is not healthy, which is an obvious understatement. The fact that the amber has been extended to multiple states, leads me to think that the authorities believe Cummins along with Thomas fled across state lines in order to get away, which is an automatic UFAP charge. The fact that he searched "age of consent" does in fact raise the possibility that the Tad wants to live with Elizabeth somewhere and it reminds me a lot of Jefferey McDaniel, who is wanted out of California.

While it's good news Cummins can't legally marry Elizabeth based on her actual age in Mexico without parental consent, it's still my fear he may try to create false identities and marry her by pretending she's older. (I figured age of consent was still 18 without parental consent but that wasn't my overall fear.)

Crime Watch Daily did a segment on this case yesterday. Here is the airing:

It's 2 weeks into this manhunt and Tad and Elizabeth haven't been found yet. This is obviously rare and concerning, I mean even Markeith Loyd didn't last this long after he shot a police officer back in January.
Let's be clear here, the TBI needs some assistance from the FBI because not everyone knows about Tad Cummins and Elizabeth Thomas, so perhaps the FBI getting involved will boost publicity in this case.

The FBI is already helping. But I guess it can't hurt to place this case on their physical website as well. Like I said, if a show like AMW was still around, I'd think we'd have a recovery by now. The case is well covered but people get their news from so many sources now and it's so spread out compared to even like 10 years ago. Television is the one medium that has withstood the test of time.
