BSU1967,
I see you are on the East Coast. I will tell you directly what I believe:
I believe Somer ran directly home after the altercation wither her sibling,
where she ran (fataly) into mom's BF,
I believe the BF sent the kids to look for Somer while he did (finished) whatever he needed to do i.e. put her body in a dumpster?
I believe BF is holding some type of threat over mom wherein Mom know almost immediately child was dead, or something similar,
but clearly mom is holding back what she knows.
Maybe we will get a "Good E-ven-ing" post, you know, like Alfred Hitchcock used to say.
boyfriend wasn't there though ... it was moms friend... SP... her boyfriend was a werk
... does anyone find it odd that the mom's boyfriend has the same last name (a unique one) as the teacher that recently committed suicide in MO during the on going Elizabeth Olten tragedy... just thought it was an odd coincidence that that guy has the same last name and both are "involved" (couldn't think of a better word sorry) in these two tragedies. Not saying these are all connected, it just caught me off guard is all.
The one thing that is still really bothering me, and I know this was discussed last night, is the fact Somer's father was left off of the obit. I know several sleuthers have said they have done/would do the same thing if he was not involved much in her life. But, IMO he is still her father. Nothing can change that.

In the pic of Mom and boyfriend at the funeral - linked above (thanks Aimee) - I'm noticing Mom's dress is very low cut.
What do you guys think? I would never wear something like that to a funeral for someone I loved.
The people around me - my family - would say something to me - especially if they knew I was going to be filmed and photographed and possibly scrutinized about it.
A bad choice?

Well that is a hell of a find. BUT, that top guy is not stick man. We thought he was WLK but he isn't but shoot, these two sure look the same.

I did...but what am I suppose to see? I see Somer articles of course, some ancestry stuff and an obit.
BINGO
I work in the funeral industry. I have been very confused because Somer's Mom said on Friday she didn't have her body, was not allowed to see her and didn't know when Somer would be released. Then I have watched as the funeral plans did not change. I'm very confused about the conflictions. Once a body is released by the Coroner it is the job of funeral professionals to decide whether a body is viewable. And I'll tell you not in a million years would I deny a mother a final goodbye with her daughter. Even if the child was not in best condition, if her mother wanted to view her and touch her I would counsel the mother about what she was about to see and gently take her through the process. None of this is making sense to me.
LE is trying to keep cause of death and other information quiet. I understand that, but this is a forever goodbye there are no second chances. Very confused.
I am sorry for posting before I finish catching up but I am thinking something entirely different (moo).. in one of her very early interviews... before the body was found iirc, she talked on live tv how safe her neighborhood was and that she even fell asleep with her garage open with a tv in it and everything and nothing was even taken...Ok...this is getting WAY weird. So they break in D's house on the 21st. How could people break into that house when police are coming and going? Furthermore, to do so is just plain desperate. What's in the house that is SO important to risk...and ultimately get caught with armed robbery?? Maybe evidence linking someone to Somer's murder?? Documents? Computers? Can we get a specific timeline...it happened on the 21st...same day they find Somer's body. Did it happen before her body was found or after. MY THEORY HERE: Somebody was desperately trying to get their hands on some evidence before cops find the body and come back to confiscate stuff for the investigation...MOO
