Soon, several years later, as fear and anticipation became part of the Lyon family’s daily life, a new theory emerged that an organized crime group might be behind the sisters’ disappearance. Similar rumors had been circulating in the city, though there was no official confirmation. However, these shadows of darkness began to paint a new picture.
Talk of criminal groups, criminals from the past about whom little was known, sharpened suspicions. Why was this kidnapping so elaborate? Why had no one left a trail? At this time, rumors grew that the girls’ disappearance might have been part of a larger criminal network. Locals, by the way, began to recall strange events: night calls, mysterious figures that sometimes appeared in dark corners of the city but disappeared just as suddenly.
This darkness could not have been an accident. Were the girls simply victims of chance, or was their abduction part of a much more global scheme? The more people wondered about this question, the harder it became to follow the real motives of the perpetrators.
Rumors and hypotheses began to spread through the city. There was talk of linking this crime to other kidnappings that had not been solved. People began to link this case to gangs and criminal networks lurking in the shadows. These groups acted with lightning speed and forethought, leaving no trace. As the police continued their work, the shadow of crime was around every corner, and it soon became clear that what was happening was no accident.
