I guess that reason behind it may be really mondain.Yes, it is truly bizarre that no one can state what Rachel was wearing on the day that she disappeared. Not one item of clothing.
I also find the 'famous' picture of Rachel that was used on the Missing Posters a bad choice. Someone posted a picture of Rachel as she looked in late 1974 on an earlier thread. She looks nothing like on the Missing Poster, which was clearly taken a few years earlier. The hairstyle is a real giveaway.
You would almost think people close to Rachel had something to hide !!
Like (according to the official timeline) Renee and Julie were obviously seen by Renee's bf and his sister. Julie's mom could be absolutely sure what her daughter was wearing and bf highely likely remember what Renee was wearing as he gave her promise ring (and possibly Grandma). So they could be sure of their clothing description right away, while with Rachel not so much - some uncertaintity while filling the very first missing person's report and not engaged officer could just leave it like that.
Same with the picture. It happens. Sometimes family has just this one old picture at easy grab, or they're providing LE with, what they think is the best picture of missing person. Could happen... theoretically.
Cause practically, where is smoke, there is a fire. One or two things like that I wouldn't count as "smoke". Cause things happen. But the amount of things that are weird around Rachel's close ones is, IMO beyond a limit of random.
Once again:
DA claimed to spend whole day at T's house.
But TT claimed that DA drove him to and back from the bowling alley in the evening.
TT claimed to be at work till evening and have multiple calls with FA.
FA claimed to be at the workshop with TT.
But TT said she wasn't.
TT claimed that CA drove him to work and picked him up there to drop him at T's house.
I'm not actually that confident in what CA actually ever said about that day, but DA claimed that he hasn't left the house cause of the cancer treatment (but - according to her own statements, she couldn't actually be 100% sure of that, as she "hasn't left T's house for the whole day).
One big confusion it causes. But it looks like this:
Neighbour feels confident in CA&FA not leaving their driveway on that afternoon, but she wasn't just chilling in her front yard whole day, she was setting up a party, that was supposed to be attended by multiple people, relatively big Christmas party.
Not accusing anyone, cause lying =/= guilt, but a person can't be in two locations in the same time or leave and not leave the house in the same time, buuuut:
Assumming that DA was telling truth: TT wasn't (but her statement about CA&FA whereabouts may be false in facts, but true according to her knowledge).
Assumming that TT was telling truth: DA and FA were not.
Assumming that FA was telling truth: TT wasn't... but her claims were giving him alibi - why would he reject that?
Approaching this once again with clearer mind I want to ask: and what if claiming that she was with him at the workshop wasn't actually a lie in his favor?
But I don't know what purpose could she have in claiming aimed either at stating that she was at the workshop on that day, or that she wasn't home.
Neighbour feels confident in CA&FA not leaving their driveway on that afternoon, but she wasn't just chilling in her front yard whole day, she was setting up a party, that was supposed to be attended by multiple people, relatively big Christmas party. So I guess that she could be fooled or missed the fact that car wasn't there all the time. But unlikely that she could be mistaken about FA approaching her and chatting. So surely FA was home for at least some time. Possibly whole day.
Yet another thing that I haven't questioned before are two versions of events involving FA. One places her at the mall, going through stores and asking clerks about the girls, other at home, with phone book, calling clerks in SS's stores and asking for girls. One doesn't exclude the other, she could call first, go there second, but it's another oddity.
Maybe caused by misreporting. May be not.
