I don't recall the attorney indicating anything at all with respect to the box of wine on the stove.

...she holds up the bag from the box of wine, and gives her 'explanation' of why it's empty.

During the video shown from inside the home on the Today Show this morning, it showed black plastic taped to the wall of the baby's room -- what is the explanation for this?

I'm assuming they removed part of the drywall?

Hi Sarx and Oriah! :seeya:

I have a hypothetical question about SAR or man trailing dogs. Please bear with me.

Say that a child is discovered wandering alongside a road. She's crying and obviously beaten up. A good samaritan calls the police and they (cops) find out that some guy had lured her and a friend into the woods and although she ran away from him, she's completely lost (doesn't know how she got from wherever the guy took her, to the road where she was discovered). Obviously the police want to get to her buddy ASAP. Can they use SAR dogs to track from where the girl is now to get to where she used to be?

That window was covered up for a couple of weeks now. Some thing it was to keep out the sun; other think LE used luminol. However, I am thinking they were replacing the window.

What were the original window covers for Lisa's bedroom? Curtains? Blinds?

We really don't know what the original window coverings were for Lisa's bedroom. For all we know, the plastic covering has been there for a while.

does anyone know the distance of the closest storage unit from the irwin house?

What movie were the children watching? Where were they watching the movie? How long was the movie? What children's movie would hold the full attention of children ages 8, 5, and 3 for the duration of the movie? Did either one of the mothers ever check to see what the children were doing? I can tell you this, when mine were little, and things became very quiet it meant they were doing something they had no business doing. Not to mention the fact that 3 children seem to be incapable of getting along without an argument about something. Two are fine, but the third usually means two buddy up and the third is the odd man out.

1.) Has the next door neighbor EVER given public interview? If so, can someone send it to me?
2.) Do we have confirmation that neighbor actually did see little Lisa? At what time?
3.) Who was the last credible person to see Lisa alive, and when?
4.) Why is Michael LeRette the only family member standing with JI and DB during press conferences?
5.) What does Michael LeRette (cousin) have to do with this anymore than the other family members?
6.) Why did the family come out with Bill Stanton without the parents?
7.) Was there remodeling going on prior to the reported abduction, or are the missing closet doors in JI and DB's bedroom, and Lisa's bedroom, door frame in parents bedroom along with the trim, and bare (not tacked down carpet) happen during the warrant search by LE.

There are no answers to your questions.

It's possible the name of the movie was mention, and I just don't recall it.

IIRC, the children were watching a movie in the boy's room.

We have no clue how long the movie was, but I would assume it would be the standard length of a movie. I believe, but not 100% that the children are 8, 6 and 4 (girl).

We have no idea if anyone checked on the children.

We have no clue what movie would hold all of the children's attention for all that time.

Not sure if Sarx and Oriah will see your post. They have a thread where they are answering questions.

“Apparently, if you remember, there was a neighbor with [Deborah Bradley} all the way until she went to bed, and the neighbor actually was reporting when the lights went off in the house and what not,” Drew said. “I kept asking, ‘who's this neighbor person?’... I can't confirm this, but from a source told me, that the neighbor's estranged from her husband and the husband was not allowed home that night and that there was some acrimony with the neighbors.”

So, the drinking buddy neighbor has an estranged husband that was not allowed home that night and there was "acrimony with the neighbors"
- My 1st Question: Does this play a role with what happened to Baby Lisa?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- My 2nd Question - as previously asked: Why is DB's cousin, Michael LeRette, always with DB/JI -and- their lawyers! Is he involved and they are keeping him close? Of note, he does fit the neighbors description of the mystery man carrying baby down the street at 12 am......

IMO

Have DB neighbors ever notice her get behind the wheel of a car and drive?

 

[Lera213]

Search warrant: I thought I read somewhere that on the affidavit that there was a box check that showed LE tried to have the document sealed. Can someone point me to that?

Nope, nothing has come out from anyone regarding Debra getting behind the wheel of a car.

Thank you Josie, where does it show it was attempted to seal it and denied...I cannot locate it on the document.

Question #1 - Anything is possible.

Question #2 - Only answer I could think of is that he is there to support Debra.

IIRC, he doesn't live in town, but came in from Texas. If I am wrong, someone will correct me.

The rest of Question #2 would only be speculation as we have no idea.

Doh, I was looking for a little box. Sorry
