She read from a script. When she deviated, she corrected herself and went back and read what was written.
this one particular moment --- Do you remember what it was?
But this isn't a fairy tale. It's a years' long sexual abuse and a murder investigation against a 13 year old child under the care of two messed-up adults. And you're talking about unicorns and rainbows for the "poor" mother. According to the press conference yesterday, she is still considered a suspect until they prove otherwise. MOO.
Yes, reading from a script is so much easier than speaking off-the-cuff. And yet she continually couldn't get the words out right from her script. You mentioned above she is new in that role for a year. She just seemed inexperienced and unprepared imo.
It makes me wonder if this case turned out to be complex like the Delphi case, meaning, there too might be so many tentacles to this case, which has proven to make it complex.But Holland stressed the importance of not rushing detectives in their “meticulous” investigation.
She said detectives have been “relentless” in investigating what has proven to be a “complex” case.
“Our questions are being answered,” Holland said. “Slowly but surely.”
“Mr. Sterns is not going anywhere,” Holland said Thursday. “He’s in jail, and he’s going to be there for a while.”
Madeline Soto: Kissimmee police chief says detectives can’t be rushed in their investigation
Kissimmee police Chief Betty Holland held a news conference Thursday afternoon to discuss her agency’s investigation into the death of 13-year-old Madeline Soto -- almost one month after her initial disappearance.www.wftv.com
His reaction to this makes me think that at least one person, at least one time, questioned his treatment of young girls. It seems like he's taking it VERY personally.
Yep, 100% agreed.

I work for a college and I've noticed that the Criminal Justice majors are generally weak on their English/Speech/Communication skills. Just one college of course, but it's definitely a noticeable trend.
I hate writing this… especially knowing we all grieve differently.
no doubt there is alot that LE is not revealing. as noted, the complex where JS and MS lived had alot of CCTV. we do not know:
Gaslighting is real and can have the victim doubting her own mind and vision. It's a severe manipulation. Of course none of us know if JS was gaslit. As far as " kinks" , I think that's very different than child sexual assault. Most tend to think these predators are easy to spot, if they were they'd be less around.
This is completely my own opinion but the discussion by SSs friends about his overuse of Adderall gave me the inkling that perhaps JS uses prescription medications that may cause this detachment and “flat affect”.
This is my feeling also. Was there a point where MJ became her competition, the other woman?
All of the above statements are red flags, in my opinion. IF, KPD doesn't have the answers to the above questions, at this stage, I'm concerned. The COP appeared to be justifying the lack of information or an update. She didn't even get the birthday correct and she was reading from a prepared statement! Why was no investigators or the DA present to support her and the Dept?“We want to make sure that we uncover every single fact and all the evidence. We don’t want to put a timeline on it.”
The chief said officers were still trying to determine where Madeline died and how adding that she would not release further details until officers were sure of the facts.

Of course, and I said as much. Nerves, anything is possible here. Sorry for edits, screwy WiFi here. it was an observation only on my part, made minutes after the presser.
