FYI: Part 2 is tomorrow 8 EST! Can't wait!
I listened while attempting to make pizza dough from scratch, so my
notes are somewhat scattered and roughly in my own words.
However, I did play back some of it to fill in my notes.
This is going to be a long post.
(Yes, the pizza came delicious 
)
First off, Chris McDonough says Maya may have had an appt. with an attorney to start legal separation proceedings. (15:15) Chris has talked to some people close to the pulse on this. Also. although LE collected some things from the house search, he says (16:22) there are other missing items from the house that may be in the possession of the husband's family. Chris doesn't want to get into it with CVPD, or compromise the investigation. He'll leave it alone for now, Chris said he has photographs of it, or the items. He says it's verifiable and real.
Chris says Dean pointed out LM talks for ten minutes about his missing wife and not one time does he say her name. LM never says her name!
Steve Johnson, Forensic Linguist Analyst, said
Larry was the one who "stepped up his game" with a huge amount of victim blaming, just a lot of denigration going on at this time, and he's gotten blatant about it. LM is deceptive about what happened, they're not saying he did it, but they're catching deception in his statements. One is about if Maya got hurt hiking on a trail, and LM insists she could use her phone, and how she wears those Fabletics (pants with side pocket), and she
could make a call cause her phone would be next to her even if she fell. LM tries to stick to the story that Maya took off and she could call home. Tries to act worried for a minute, he says, "Something's keeping her from contacting us." Then, back to blaming when he implies that "this pressure is enough now where she
could contact us and say "Hey, I'm okay.
(I take this to suggest that he wants us to believe she's still alive and he's poor, helpless him, and she's not calling home. Yes, that's victim blaming.)
LM describes the last interaction with his wife as them having
"kind of an argument". What's that look like, Larry? Describe it.
LM uses the word physically twice, then catches himself and says visually. It's significant to Steve Johnson. It's also a red flag for Chris that LM tries to
minimize the argument.
Steve Johnson says LE doesn't want to hear LM persuade us of anything, he says we want to hear the
experiential language, as in tangible about the experience we actually experience. Deceptive language takes a lot of effort and brain power, and people will try to persuade, justify, describe, or explain things we never even asked them for. Deception causes stress. You can here deception in a voice. Also, there should be no victim blaming or any denigration. Steve Johnson says Larry is denigrating Maya so much that it's LM who stepped up his game.
Dean Jackson questions what LM thinks is the
worst case scenario, but then he doesn't bring up the worse, he goes into the pressure on Maya that she should call home. LM mentions objects-- workout pants, her phone. LM trying to stay positive, but this whole situation is
embarrassing.
Kind of argument that got into that was probably physical, she could call home, but worst case scenario is something terrible. Extremely significant and the 48-72 hrs. but LM wanted to wait, to report her missing. Why would LM be talking about the first 48-72 hrs. -- that's a homicide show he watched, and usually the hrs. pertain to a homicide case? (
This was suppose to be missing person, maybe a wine tasting case.)
The 2:30 & 3:30 time LM mentions several times. In-laws can see it if when she left the house. The panel feels they could probably figure out the timeline. The "we" heard her Friday night. Trying to convince is deceptive, and the we is significant. Who else is there, and is there someone else involved? Alarming to Steve.
The first 48-72 hrs. and
the worst case scenario is something terrible. The panel says it sounds like
LM tried to stall Maya's family from reporting her missing... could it be he was
buying time for
someone to dispose of a body and get back before she was reported missing. Panel would be looking into
additional family members
(of LM) to see if they might have been the
"we".
Code 187 and helping after the crime, if you are part of the "we" if you exist, call the CVPD. Turn in your ticket now or it's going to get bad for you. It doesn't have to be. Make a call. The Panel says
if LM was trying to stall, goes towards planning, premeditation, maybe he's done his homework, knows about ring doorbells.
His daughter, I think the b-day girl breaks down a little bit? LM says she's like me, and "keep keep stuff, close to chest". He's just trying to keep things normal
with the kids, not
for the kids...subtle but significant.
(think about it)
LM asks, "Why do you have to do this whole thing?" He's
recalling something that was said. He's recalling something in (the kind of) argument. Probably her going to the divorce attorney. LM can't explain and must minimize his worry and being shaken, he wants us to gloss over it by saying it's "mind numbing" which is a way to say he doesn't want to discuss it anymore. During questions, the panel said LM is not probably a psychopath because there's too much leakage. (Very few people including some psychopaths can actually lie and pass a polygraph, or lie without body tells.)
When talking about Maya's working out towards a hiking goal, LM slips and says,
"She wanted to..." in the
past tense towards the end of the interview.
Maya's sister and family show what loved ones go through when someone is missing. They don't notice themselves, if they ate, etc., They don't talk about themselves. LM says a lot about himself. - embarrassing - not sleeping - not eating -
his FACE has aged - he can't think straight.
I can't think straight now either. Tired. This is
my take on what I gathered and some of MOO. They do jump around a lot. I hope this does justice to capturing the Part 2 show. Please listen for yourself. It's fascinating and quite telling.
For your convenience you can listen to LM her:
