Shawn said in his BTHN interview last week (3/4) that Corey was really the guy behind the videos. He again stated they were just for Halloween (nothing about school). When asked, he said that he hadn't spoken to Corey in about a month (also said the same about his truck-driving co-worker dad). When asked, Shawn stated that Corey had been on his mom's computer "a couple of times" and stated firmly that he does not think Corey is involved with Hailey's disappearance.
Billie was asked about Corey during her 3/3 BTHN interview. She said he was a nice kid that used to be a student and then moved back home, IIRC. When asked, Billie said firmly that she does not think Corey is involved with Hailey's disappearance.
Ok, so Shawn and Billie have implicated Hailey's friend, Hailey's dad, Hailey's dad's girlfriend, Hailey's uncle BG, sex traffickers, and an unknown abductor... But, Corey, Shawn's cohort and the (snipped) involved with the slasher and drug videos, is beyond reproach. It makes me think that Corey knows something; Billie and Shawn aren't willing to quickly deflect attention upon him when given the opportunity. Why? It's completely outside of the deflection pattern they've established thus far. And, why is Corey coming out of the woodwork to talk to the media now? Something's a brew, imo.
