Connecting JAG to Amber

As further proof that Jag is involved in Amber's death, her cousin spoke about JAG directly.

Amber's parents wouldn't say whether they suspect Chelsea's alleged killer took their daughter's life. Amber's cousin Kelly believes he did. "I hate him. I'm not a person to hate, but I hate him so much!"

I am not seeing any further proof, just an opinion. Am I missing something in this article that you can point me to?

TIA
 
iirc LE said yesterday that they chose their words very carefully for a reason fwiw
 
KNSD 7/39 (news at 4) just stated that there was a "closed door" meeting today with all of the leading LE involved in Chelsea's case WITH the Escondido Police Department. They started that while talking about the source of the tip, but I think it's also likely speaking of the fact that authorities meeting (and in a way that it was done publicly enough that media knows about it) from the two cases adds to the likelihood that either a) they KNOW the cases are related, or b) they strongly suspect that's to be the case.
 
[sarcasm] We can only hope the Escondido PD was picking up some tips from SDPD regarding how to decide whether a missing teen is likely a runaway or not. [/sarcasm]:furious:
 
This forum is getting confusing for me. (Maybe just me) Anyway I wanted to copy this post by Nursebeeme to the Grandmother thread, but now it's locked. I think it not only implies that the Bill Garcia is not a spokesperson for Amber's family, but the Grandmother too?


Quote:
Her father, Moe, attended today's hearing for Gardner and said he and Amber's mother, Carrie McGonigle, are the only people who represent the true feelings of their family.

The father was reacting to statements by others, including private investigator Bill Garcia, who said he was told that a tip that led investigators to Amber's body did not come from Gardner, who has not been charged in connection with the girl's death.

"The only spokesperson for Amber and Amber's family will be me or Carrie," he said.

Gardner contacted by Escondido police far more than usual

Contacts with sex offenders are normally made once a year, on or around their birthday, or when they move, according to The San Diego Union-Tribune, which reported that Escondido police declined to explain why Gardner — who used to live in Escondido — was contacted so frequently.

Escondido police Lt. Craig Carter told the Union-Tribune he couldn’t say whether the unusually high number of contacts made with Gardner had anything to do with Amber.

Help??
Are there any threads about JAG and his life/crimes?? Thanks!
 
That's just wrong IMO. This family has been in pain for over a year. The authorities should give the parents all the info they have and ask that they not repeat it if it will hinder the investigation.

It's a great theory, but not everyone can keep their mouth closed. Would it be more important to know everything NOW, and possibly jeopardize the case if you should slip and mention something, or be content to know where your daughter is and that keeping all information from you means her murderer will most likely get identified? That's a tough call, but I'd rather be sure whomever did this to my child was never able to do this to another person again. Ever. Two life sentences running consecutively would keep the guy from ever getting parole, even if he did not get the death penalty.
 
It looks like they got at least some answers yesterday:
“We talked to (Escondido police), and we’re satisfied with what they told us,” McGonigle said yesterday. “Moe and I were both given an update today, and we are content for now.”

Dubois added, “We did get a few answers to some of our questions — stuff we needed to know.”

There was only one gag order signed.

Escondido police Lt. Craig Carter said McGonigle and Dubois spoke with a department representative.

“We have talked to them,” Carter said. “We’re just trying to tell them to relax and let the system work, and we tried to explain that our hands are tied” by a gag order issued by a judge last week.

http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2010/mar/18/ambers-parents-told-few-details/

A Superior Court judge issued a gag order yesterday in the case involving John Albert Gardner III, barring attorneys or law enforcement officials from commenting to the media.

LE can not give some info from Amber's case to her parents because of the gag order > the gag order was issued in the case involving JAG.

ergo. amber's case involves JAG. in my opinion.
 
we all know that JAG "is a focus" in LE's investigation but I couldn't find it's legal definition per se. i am no lawyer but i did try to look it up.

could one of our lawyers give us their interpretation of the legal definition of "focus" and for that matter POI (person of interest). TIA

EDIT: I found a Time magazine article explaining Person of Interest. http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1924318,00.html

(SNIPPED) The term person of interest is meaningless. There's no legal definition, and the Department of Justice doesn't offer a formal meaning — despite the fact that it first popularized the term, during the investigation into the 1996 bombing of venues at the Summer Olympics in Atlanta.
 
Being a "focus" of an investigation simply means they are focusing their attention on him as the perp--ie they are investigating him as being the perp. Being a "person on interest" means they have reason to believe he may be involved. Pretty much the same thing. I think it's interesting the LE is applying Judge Danielson's gag order to Amber's case--a judge can only issue a gag order in a particular case--otherwise the order wouldn't pass constitutional muster as it would be a prior restraint of free speech. That makes me think LE has definite evidence that JAG is involved.
