Shopping Stories
Brad's Story per deposition:
He was up at 4 am with Katie. Nancy got up about 25 minutes later, closer to 430 am. At approximately 6 am he leaves to go get milk. He takes Lochmere west to Kildaire Farm Road, north to HT for this trip. He comes home after purchasing 2% milk. He notices there is no detergent and goes back out to go to HT. This trip, he takes Cary Parkway north to Tryon Road, west to Kildaire Farm Road. While at this light he states Nancy called him to get juice. He turns south on Kildaire Farm Road into HT. He purchases Tide and the green slime juice and returns home. He fixes Katie a bottle and takes her upstairs. Nancy leaves the house, unseen at approximately 7 am. Brad doesn't know what she is wearing.
The Video story:
Brad is seen at 622 am purchasing milk at HT.
Brad is seen at 644 am purchasing detergent and juice at HT.
The local story:
Brad was up and went to HT to buy detergent at 420 am.
The vaildated story to date:
Brad was in HT at 622 and 644 am - he did purchase the items he said he purchased - those items are visible in the HT videos.
Some questions:
1. Would Brad admit to LE that he was at HT at 622 and 644 am IF he was in this same store at 420 am ?
2. Why did the first trip to HT take him in the direction of where Nancy's body was found ?
3. Why did he take a different route for the second trip which took him in the opposite direction of where Nancy's body was found ?
4. Why would Brad be wearing a long sleeve shirt in both trips because it was cool, with tennis shoes the first trip and on the second trip be wearing sandals with no socks ?
5. Why in one affidavit did he claim he noticed there was no detergent and went back to the store, then change that to he noticed it but Nancy asked him to go get detergent ?
6. Why were Nancy and Brad both unaware there was no juice for the girls but they both knew there was no milk and no detergent ?
7. Why did K & B only post the videos showing the two trips to HT between 6 and 7 am but nothing for the 420 am time period ?
8. K & B says Brad said he never went to HT at 420, so why bother showing the 6 to 7 am video since they were so worried about Brad's reputation and the rumors ?
9. Do the videos posted by K & B actually prove Brad was not at HT at 420 am ?
10. Did K & B obtain from HT a copy of video which covered from 4 am to say 5 am to verify the veracity of Brad's statement that he did not go at the 420am time ? For some reason they deflected to the 6 to 7 am time period only while trying to argue a completely different time frame of 4 am.
11. If K & B did not look at video from 4 am to 5am, does this validate K & B's statement about Brad not going at 420 am as being correct ?
12. If they looked at it and saw nothing, why not add the clip to support the claim made on the website?
So it goes, this one is going to have to wait for trial for resolution. But there are sufficient questions to consider it is possible he went, just as there are questions to support it not happening.
