Jammer: why would she drive back and leave the children if she was scared of MP
Arlene: Only reason she would go back because MP threatened GP personally. GP would only leave children at house if MP threatened GP.
You know what? If Gail was my sister and I was close to her, I wouldn't let my other siblings dictate my actions. JMO
Thanks Pearl. Channel 12 is very brief and to the point usually. Do you know if they have a live stream? TIA
Our local news channel 12 just announced a 6:00 (Eastern time) update on the search for Gail--approximately 20 minutes from now.
[snipped for relevance to response]
Since I am one of the people who made comments in this regard, I want to just clarify what I meant by my posts.
I think if the two are indeed making decisions together, that is ideal.
The implication IMO was that they were instead at odds with each other over decision-making, and if that were the case, I think it would surely hinder progress.
A straight-forward and quick solution to that would be for the sibling closer to Gail to make the decision without hassle so the case could continue to move forward in the most productive way.
If the two have resolved their own conflicts, however--if any existed to begin with--that is by far the best scenario.
Believe9 and BeanE,
sorry to post and run but time and the holiday caught up with me. I am still on holiday and away from the computer but had to check in on the big case and wanted to swing by here.
I dont have time to read threads so forgive and pass over if this all has been covered.
To clarify information in the Jammer interview that was new or had more details unknown to me, at least, and I thought was worthy of discussion on WS.
Points of interest:
GP planning on moving to the lake house from SM when school out
Arlene said GP did say it was MP she was scared of in the pick me up call
Her Catholic religion is what kept her in the marriage. She felt once married should stay married.
Arlene sketching a portrait of GPs state as well-adjusted and normal and any problems directly and exclusively connected to MP
GP very crafty made big deal of holidays.
Found enjoyment in simple pleasures good sense of humor
Turned around to take picture of a funny sign to put on her Facebook
When it came to MP - mean drunk
Verbally abusive when drinking -is really hard on the son.
MP routinely kept very close track of GP
Police were called when MP got out of the car because it scared the children
Told about dog incident MP mad because the electric fence collar left off
MP hid behind dog house one time from LE and hid in house another time
MP side says MP nerdy messy not as smart as Gail not the type to pull off such a crime
Arlene had meet MP a few times but barely talked.
She and her son installed the security camera because MP couldnt fix anything himself he wasnt mechanical at all
Arlene could tell MP intelligent but seemed no common sense
When questioned about why that amount of money A had told Gail she needed 6 month money supply to live on because in ala it takes that long to get a hearing in court
She tries to call GP cell phone goes straight to voice mail.
Jammer quizzing what would Gail be doing up on the remote trail. A doesnt know. Asked who with GP only thing she could think was it may have been mistress in car. Jammer: Mistress has alibi for being a passenger. Arlene said I thought that it was different weekend at softball tourney. J says apparently a firm alibi
Asked was Arlene the passenger No she said she was at exes 50th party and had witnesses
Jammer closely questioning credit card charge:
Arlene when picking up the hard drive signed or approved the charge to GPs credit card.
GP had already given them the credit card but it was for 75 the service fee if they didnt find anything but if they did it was going to be 200.
Arlene was going to pick up day before GP disappeared but it was still on Ups? truck. She couldnt get it until the Monday after the disappearance.
At that time she Arlene approved / signed ? for the 200 payment.
Hard drive contained footage of an argument. MP had erased it but it was recovered.
Arlene would agree to have her local LE make a copy but she was not going to let her original go because GP had entrusted it to A.
Told Jammer they talked every single day.
She did not know that GP had seen a psychiatrist in Birmingham but shrugged it off GP didnt know every detail of her life either.
Jammer: why would she drive back and leave the children if she was scared of MP
Arlene: Only reason she would go back because MP threatened GP personally. GP would only leave children at house if MP threatened GP.
MP gone through $20,000 since disappearance
She was a little depressed. No crazier than me but people do say I am umm fun to be with
Didnt discount deny that she might leave but not this long without seeing the children
Doesnt think she is alive. Crying heart breaking
Foot note: Dont have a link but it appears MPs counsel is going through his own divorce. It was in the Times Free Press over the weekend.
IMO

Twitter hopping a bit with the search. I'm collecting the reporter tweets here:
http://keepstream.com/CaseSignal/gail-palmgren-case-tweet-archive
We spoke with John Cavett, attorney for Julanne Palmgren, Matthew's mother. He said they gave authorities permission to search the apartment.
The mother has lawyer also?
Okay, I'm officially freakin' at the red Jeep.
That makes no sense to me whatsoever. If someone, anyone, is threatening me, the very last thing I'd do is put my children right into their hands. They might harm my kids to get back at me.
Gail was too smart, and loved her children too much, for that to be her reason for leaving the kids with Matt.
If she was dumb, or uncaring about her kids and self-centered, looking for self-preservation at the cost of her kids, I could buy it, but every report about Gail says otherwise - that she was smart, and she loved and cared for her kids and was very involved with them.
