I don't think she was there at all. I think she was somewhere else and had been gone for a short while. I think she and Ron had argued and she left. Ron called many, many times that day trying to get up with her. His mother also tried to get up with her and finally talked her into going over to Ron's house. I think Hope was called to check on the kids while Ron was at work. I think Ron drugged the kids and locked them inside the trailer. He, himself, stated that he had locked the deadbolts before he went to work. I think Hope found Hayleigh dead and called TN and she started calling Misty to get her to go over and together, they all decided what story would be told on the 911 call and to police.
Grandma and Hope's mother came over that evening. Hope's mother was a nurse. Grandma and Hope's mother left with a large clothes basket. She stated that she was going to do their laundry.
Washing machine was operating when LE arrived. My theory is all through this thread.
JMO but Tommy and Joe came over with the van to remove the pot plants before 911 could be called. JMO. PLants were found nearby tossed in the woods around a lake. JMO
