A child disappears in a rural area of Tennessee, so obviously the first thing that comes to mind is how many registered sex offenders live nearby.

From the CNN transcript:
GRACE: Right. Everyone, the tip line is 1-800-TBI-FIND, 1-800-824-3463. There are at least 2,800 registered sex offenders in just a 10-mile radius.
Apparently, little Noah wanders off, walking through the woods with Grandma. Tonight, prayers going up in the search for 2-year-old Noah.
Marc Klaas, president and founder of Klaas Kids Foundation. Marc, even when the dogs were brought in, scent dogs, no sign of Noah on that trail.
MARC KLAAS, KLAAS KIDS FOUNDATION: Yes. Nancy, I think a possible scenario would be that Grandmother inadvertently spent more than a minute with her attention devoted to the little girl, rather than the little boy, and that somehow he has fallen into a sinkhole or a well or perhaps even been taken by a critter, a bear or something along those lines.
The idea, though, that a sex offender would be trolling in the neighborhood and was somehow able to commit this crime, I think is pretty far-fetched.
GRACE: I think it`s far-fetched too, but I always remember, Marc Klaas, the story of Shasta and Dylan Groene, if you will recall, very, very remote home where a sex offender did break in, kill the whole family and take Shasta and Dylan. Remember that? So it`s not unheard of.
I think your scenario is what happened, because I`m telling you, Marc., when I told you about John David, I seriously was reaching back, trying to get to the back of an -- of a row to get something, lotion or powder or something. Turn around, put it in, turned around, John David had run away.
It was just that quick, maybe 45 seconds, a minute. So it can happen.
2,800 registered sex offenders living within a 10-mile radius? Really?
It's a terrible situation without this sort of wild speculation. But of course, anytime a child is missing, they were kidnapped by a registered sex offender.

Nancy just carries on (breathlessly) about "remembered" Stranger Danger happening in "the blink of an eye" because our own Nancy Grace says there are 2800 predatory "Strangers" crawling through the same woods as the hapless grandmother who "failed in her duty to protect" Nice!
I feel bad for the family, and Nancy doesn't care about truth, she wants to push the stranger danger mantra myth.
