Woman spotted on highway was not Fox, her brother says.
"The plus side is we can put her out to the highway now so we know she's out of the desert," Bedell said. "But unfortunately, Highway 385 is a major artery north and south... I mean she could be in Oregon... she could be in Salt Lake... she could be anywhere."
Not everyone is convinced that Fox did make it out of the desert. Her brother, Reese Somes, told Crime Library this morning that he spoke with at least one of the witnesses who claims to have seen Fox on the highway and he believes that the young woman spotted there was not his sister. He said the woman the witness saw had darker hair than his blonde sister and lacked some of her other physical attributes. "No one knows the description better than her family," Somes said, adding that he fears that she remains in the desert, perhaps incapacitated or worse, or even that she might have been abducted while wandering alone in the desert.
Fueling his fears is Somes' conviction that if his sister had made it safely out the desert, she would have contacted someone in the family by now. Almost certainly, he said, she would have tried to contact her 5-year-old son, now in the custody of her former husband. And failing that, she certainly would have turned to someone in her family for help.
"This is a girl who is used to having nice things... she has nice stuff, and this is a girl now who has no car, she has virtually no clothes except for the clothes on her back, she has no purse, no credit cards, no money," Somes said. "You need that and the first thing you do is you call Mommy. That's what I would do."
