Hey, if Chase was as savvy with the emails and Internet as suggested, JM could have hired Chase to do DK's job, and no need to try to buy out DK. (I'm using past tense about Chase)
It seems to me that Dan had control of the business because he set up the Website and quite possibly set up Joey's email for all we know.The family opened a new bank account for the business.
BBM, It's precisely because no one in the family knew what happened to their loved ones or where they were that SB per her testimony at Trial said she was keeping Joey's business afloat for him, and most of the monies taken from JM's account went to people he did business with. And the $500 for child support for Joey's other son.
It would be what any loving parent would do under such stressful circumstances i would think?
The business went belly up i presume because there were no further monies in there because i think by the time everything was settled up that was it. Wasn't the business sold? For $1,500? Thought i read that somewhere?
It looks like an automatic email from Paypal don't you think?Welll....someone forwarded that Provecho email string from JM's email account to CM's on Feb, 24, 2010 - it certainly wasn't Joey, nor DK. If anyone else had broken into JM's email account, why on earth would they forward the whole string to one of the people involved in the conversation? I hope Part II will shed some light on (or at least good speculation in lieu of) on the reasoning for that.
You hope who doesn't go where? I'm lost sorry . .Well i certainly hope he doesn't go there.
Yes. We need new info to keep the discussion goingWow, the frequency of posts on this thread has really slowed compared to the last time I was here. I guess the trial needs to resume before there’s anything new to talk about.
It certainly seems that Dan maintained control because he was the one who set up the website, probably also the Paypal account, and who knows that he didn't set up and keep access to Joey's email? Someone seems to have had that over the years. How did Joey's emails get out there onto the internet? . . . I think it highly likely the family, in their anxiety & distress, were manipulated . . .But it is important when motive given for the murders is greed.
The defense is entitled to show ( if true) that Chase wasn’t the only one taking money off the family. It doesn’t matter if it’s Joey’s brother or Mother it’s still theft when the family was maintaining they believed the family had simply gone on vacation.
That’s the problem when you get give the motive as greed then you have Dan and the family all supposedly taking money to keep the business afloat and yet it went belly up so what exactly was they doing with all this “money” they claimed was for the business.
I agree, it's what any loving parent might do. However whilst justifiable, I'm not sure it would be legal.BBM, It's precisely because no one in the family knew what happened to their loved ones or where they were that SB per her testimony at Trial said she was keeping Joey's business afloat for him, and most of the monies taken from JM's account went to people he did business with.

I think it's quite usual to pay a deposit so they can purchase materials.To be honest Joey was the idiot for paying Chase up front. That’s just a stupid business move you pay when the job is completed.
I'm still not sure why it got shut down a while ago, or who it is that has an Agenda. Hope it's not me lol . . .Yes. We need new info to keep the discussion going
Especially because we don’t want to get the thread shut down by getting caught up in old dead end discussions etc
I think those photos are for a different case/scenario.There are too many things that are too crazy about this experiment to even mention them all.
For starters he's hitting a wet sponge from the beginning, so that assumes the head is already bleeding profusely before he's struck the first blow.
Then there are no realistic dynamics, the sponge stays where it is, on top of the wood block, after the first blow. This person is not only already bleeding profusely before he's been hit, but his head doesn't move after the first hit, he doesn't fall down.
Then he's raising his arm way up behind him and over his own head after the first hit, obviously trying to create a spatter pattern on the white sheet behind him, but with a 3lb sledgehammer, for what efficient purpose if he's intending to keep hitting this person with the sponge head who hasn't fallen down?
He shoulda put a wig on the sponge I say.
And has Merritt told them he was on his knees?
And that bin behind him should have been a couple of inches more over to the left. Or should that be right? Oh yeah, we don't know because we don't know where he was kneeling in relation to the bin that's been positioned to catch the drips, or where his victims were when he struck them.
And why is he only doing this experiment last Sunday? Prep for a different trial perhaps?
Bring it on.

I think they wanted to look after Joey's son. Fair enough.Exactly how I feel. Hopefully they took out whatever Joeys share would be. Why would they do it for nothing? Everyone else was getting paid.
Just something to deflect from what CM has done.
Again IMO it is none of our business how much SM or MM took out of the business.

No. I don’t think it was aimed st youI'm still not sure why it got shut down a while ago, or who it is that has an Agenda. Hope it's not me lol . . .
Wow, the frequency of posts on this thread has really slowed compared to the last time I was here. I guess the trial needs to resume before there’s anything new to talk about.
Looks that way. Who knew we would have a week off in the midst of this trial? And I have no clue why? Do you?Wow, the frequency of posts on this thread has really slowed compared to the last time I was here. I guess the trial needs to resume before there’s anything new to talk about.

It might not be our business, but in my view it certainly should be the business of the court, and in particular of the defense. I certainly would like to see bank statements and Paypal statements of all involved, otherwise we are just speculating about who owed who what.
But IIRC Susan used to go the books for Joeys businessI agree, it's what any loving parent might do. However whilst justifiable, I'm not sure it would be legal.
