Groom Hopes They'll Still Marry

Fiancé Of Runaway Bride Says Everyone Makes Mistakes

Porter told Early Show co-anchor Rene Syler that there are some factors that indicate she may have been planning this, specifically that she cut her hair to avoid being recognized even though she told police in Albuquerque that she hopped this bus sort of on the spur of the moment

"There is also some information that she may have purchased the bus ticket before she actually left," Porter said. "That does seem to indicate there was a degree of premeditation there."

An FBI spokesman said that Wilbanks apparently made a sudden decision to flee her looming wedding and did not realize hundreds of people were looking for her. But he also noted she cut her hair to avoid being recognized.

"If there's criminal responsibility, that's something I have to do something about," Porter said. "I think it's really going to depend on the circumstances on how this was done."

Porter said he would speak on Monday to police in Albuquerque, where Wilbanks turned up late Friday and called her fiancée and police to report that she had been kidnapped.

In Duluth, her neighbors are relieved to find she's safe and sound, but very upset with the turmoil she put the community through, reports CBS News Correspondent Randall Pinkston.

On Sunday, members of Peachtree Corners Baptist Church, where Wilbanks' fiancé, John Mason is a member, said prayers and expressed concern for the couple. Wilbanks and Mason did not attend services Sunday morning.

The Rev. Bob Horner thanked church members who had helped in the search and provided support for family members.

"Number one, we are so thankful that Jennifer has been found," Horner told the congregation. "Number two, I want to publicly thank all of you who prayed and you who went to Duluth to be with the family."
