Kyron Horman Discussion Thread 2020 - 2022 - #2

[Truth Prevails]

Below is a statement by Kaine from an early interview in which he steadfastly defended Terri. At the time of Kaine’s statement, Kaine and Desiree knew (because Terri had told them) about her problems with the three polygraphs. They knew she had gaps in her timeline and was having trouble remembering where she was when she last saw Kyron. Law enforcement’s first flyer had been released. Searches on Sauvie Island had begun so they knew her phone pings hadn’t matched where she said she was. Desiree and Tony knew about the witnesses who had seen Kyron leaving the school with Terri. It had not been confirmed but would be very soon.

Desiree was at that media interview with Kaine and didn’t contradict his statements defending Terri.

Snipped quote: [Jun. 25, 2010] Investigators are working through about 2,800 tips, and "throwing every resource" at finding their boy, the parents said.
The entire family is working with investigators, Kaine Horman said, including Terri Horman. "She's cooperating with investigators as passionately as are we," Horman said.
Neither stepparent attended the interviews. Kaine Horman said that he and Young wanted to go before the cameras together as Kyron's natural parents.

Below Kaine deflected from the importance of the first flier, not admitting Terri had become the focus of law enforcement. Desiree talks about a portal opening up causing Kyron to vanish. She knew her son had not vanished but she respectfully held her silence.

Snipped quote: [Jun. 26, 2010] That includes a flier the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office released last week that shows pictures of Terri Horman and a pickup similar to one she was driving June 4. A questionnaire with the flier asks people if they saw Terri Horman or the truck at Skyline School that day. Investigators have said she was the last person to report seeing Kyron at school.
Kaine Horman said he fully supported the release of the questions and flier, saying they were another way to gather information about Kyron -- not something aimed at his wife.
"Issuing that questionnaire is just another way to get another angle or perspective from people who were at the school that day -- and hopefully, more data points and leads that perhaps they didn't think of the first time through," he said. "I actually view it as a very positive step."
"It's like a portal opened up in the school and Kyron just vanished into it," said his mother, Desiree Young.

[minazoe]

the mere fact that she was punishing Kyron for made up offenses and requesting daily reports from school in order to punish him is enough for me...this says everything I need to know about her, she is guilty of abuse.. and she was the last person seen with Kyron. using made up offenses in order to make him stay in his room all night so she could ignore and neglect him for her own selfish reasons..sickening. mOO

just to elaborate ..what these punishments tell me about Terri..let's see...hmmm, a willingness to lie at the expense of the child...a willingness to gaslight the victim regarding why they are being punished, a willingness to bring an unknowing third party into these punishments ( his teacher) ... a willingness to make up stories about her stepson in order to influence the father and her friends...let's see all of this just to have her fun, drinking and carrying on on week nights without that kid around, cause he's in his room on punishment for the night...did she even feed him?

this poor baby. mOO

It was about June 27, 2010, that Kaine learned of the murder-for-hire plots. Finally, he stopped defending Terri to the media. He took his daughter and filed for divorce.

Chapter 24 “It’s Just a Rumor” 24 Days Missing, June 27​

[Pg 197] They [Tony and Desiree] had just launched the boat and were pulling away from the dock when Desiree’s cell phone rang. It was Kaine. “there’s been a development”, he said. …"It’s not the big thing, but you need to come to Portland”.

[Pg 198] At 4:06 p.m. they had reached the Marriott and sat down with Kaine, chief deputy DA Norm Frink, chief deputy DA Rod Underhill, other members of the DA’s staff, and Kaine’s attorney for a briefing. For four and a half hours they listened. …[Pg 199] Detectives had been studying Terri’s emails and discovered that she had, unbeknownst to Kaine, hired a landscaper. That seemed suspicious to them. Why would she keep something so innocent a secret? They found the landscaper, [RS]; he told them that Terri had approached him before Kyron disappeared and offered him “a large sum of money” to kill Kaine. Terri had offered Sanchez something else, too—sex. Sanchez was allegedly one of several men Terri had talked to about getting rid of her husband.

And there was more. Terri had talked to an attorney about a divorce before Kyron went missing. And still more. Terri’s red Mustang had been spotted along the roads of northwest Portland in the days before Kyron disappeared. Was she scouting ravines and terrain?

The bombshell was that Kyron was seen leaving the school with Terri. The MCSO had said it a couple of weeks before, then retracted it. Now it was confirmed. Kyron’s regular bus driver, plus Kyron’s friend Carson and Carson’s sister and grandmother, had all seen Kyron leaving the school on June 4 with Terri. It was true. Kyron, baby [K] and Terri had walked through the parking lot at 8:50 a.m. on June 4. They were not holding hands, the bus driver said, but they were walking together. Terri had not parked in the school parking lot, where she said she had, but on a gravel road on the far west side of the school where the elevation of the school building and grounds partly concealed the white truck.

Below is Anna Canzano of KATU News [in 2011]. She is an extremely talented reporter who seemed to have a wonderful rapport with Kaine.

Below is Kaine with Anna Canzano discussing the “firsthand account” he had received from Terri regarding where she was when she last saw Kyron. In my opinion, he doesn’t appear confident in the accuracy of Terri’s story. I hope someday he accepts he is never going to get a firsthand confession.

Unofficial snipped transcript:
Anna Canzano: [8:05] So her depiction of what happened is that the last time she saw him she was down by the main office and he was here, outside his classroom.
Kaine: I think he was coming this way down the hall and she was turning and going the other way. I don’t know if it was down the stairs and out or out the side door. I can’t remember which version of the story it was at the time, which changed a few times. So, ahh.
Anna Canzano: Oh, it did?
Kaine: But it was. Yeah, going somewhere that way.
Anna Canzano: But her story changed a few times?
Kaine: Yeah.
Kyron Horman Special Part 1


Kyle Iboshi from KGW News is a hard-working, experienced reporter who has worked tirelessly over the 14 years Kyron has been missing to keep attention drawn to his case.

Here’s Kyle Iboshi talking about his various sources of information, including court documents from the Horman divorce proceedings. He mentions Kyron’s family as one source but he has other sources.
Unofficial Snipped transcript:
Kyle Iboshi: [8:30] Most of the details that we have been aware of have come through confidential sources close to the investigation or the family. So Desiree Young—who filed a civil lawsuit against Terri. She has been very forth coming and shared what information she can over the years, and then Kaine has as well during the divorce proceedings which got very nasty. In a lot of those filings we have learned a lot about the investigation as well. So through the years, bits and pieces have trickled out but not through official law enforcement sources.
Kyle Iboshi talks about the Kyron Horman case now on SunriseExtra!

Kyle Iboshi certainly showed interest in interviewing Terri and her family. If Terri is uncomfortable with the media attention Kaine and Desiree receive, I wonder why she and/or her family don't put her side of the story out more often. I don’t recall hearing anything from her family in the media since 2010.
Unofficial Snipped transcript:
Kyle Iboshi: [5:42} She has gone on national television—the Dr. Phil show. She has given interviews to People Magazine saying she didn’t do it; she doesn’t know what happened to Kyron. I’ve reached out to her on multiple occasions: in person, by email, by US mail, by phone, through friends. I mean, I’ve gone to incredible lengths to try and reach Terri Horman; to interview her; sit down and get her side of the story and never heard back or she has declined along with members of her family.
Watch: Kyle Iboshi answers your questions about Kyron

 

[Truth Prevails]

Desiree has found her voice for Kyron now. Her promise is that she will never stop. She doesn’t care how ugly the story is and who looks bad and who doesn’t, she wants her son’s story told and she wants justice.

Justice for Kyron Richard Horman! He was 7 years old. Terri is not a victim.

Unofficial Transcript:
Desiree: [23:35] Well, I’ll tell you that our law enforcement team was very good not to focus too early on her. It was because of Terri, alone, her actions, her lies, everything that we could prove, all the physical evidence, all the circumstantial evidence. It was because of all of that that they really started focusing on her. It wasn’t any other reason. [24:03] I will say that they have gone out of their way to exhaust every other angle and suspect out there. They ruled out every parent that was in the school that day, every registered sex offender in the area, every house that neighbors up to the school. [24:24] They have ruled out every single possible other person. Except one. I should say two. Terri’s friend, DeDe. You don’t get DeDe without Terri. In fact they have had a personal relationship, physically. As far as I’m aware DeDe was two miles from the school on Germantown Road working at a property where she was landscaping for them. She was also missing during the same period of time that Terri was. The people on the property always had lunch together in their central location and they were trying to locate her and she was missing.
Doug Bishop: Okay.
Desiree: And they tried calling her and she didn’t answer. Her phone was on the property. Her car was on the property. But DeDe was nowhere to be found and they looked everywhere. [25:29] It’s our understanding through information I’ve had turned over to me during searches, that she was picked up by Terri from her job on that property. And the DA’s office—they believed at the time that they could get her to flip on Terri. Several weeks later they made an agreement with DeDe for immunity. [25:59] Here's the problem with that—as you’re investigating you’re getting evidence, you’re obtaining new information, new interviews, all the things, right? [26:08] And now, today, what we can say is there is physical evidence that is involving her. From what I understand, DeDe said Terri was using throw away phones and had loaded it with minutes and was using that to communicate with people. They were able to acquire the phones. DeDe took them where they dumped them. I don’t know when the phones were dumped. They got access to them a couple of weeks after Kyron went missing. [26:37] There is communication connected to photos that were stored on the phone that is the physical evidence in the case. [26:47] It’s all things that, you know, imply guilt. It’s all things showing conceal and lie and deceit. All of it is circumstantial which is unfortunate. And then she proceeds to plead the fifth. She doesn’t want people to know what she is. And now that she has an immunity deal, we can never prosecute her. We can’t ever fix that.

 

[Truth Prevails]

Terri is not a victm. She is the perpetrator. Kyron, Desiree, Kaine, Kaine's daughter, Quinn, Tony......even James. They have all suffered immeasurably because of Terri's actions. Kaine can't bring himself to admit that the woman he brought into all their lives destroyed his son. He's defensve about his actions...or lack thereof. Desiree was justifably outraged when she discovered how toxic Kyron's home environment had become. Desiree has a certan amount of blame she lays at Kaine's feet and they are comng from different sides. Kaine wants to believe that Kyron is stll living and Desiree knows that's probably not the case.

It sometimes seems Kaine would hold up 10 fingers and say he has nine if he thought it would hurt Desiree. I know it's not uncommon for divorced couples who share the pain of a missing child to react this way, but it's sad and it hurts to watch. I didn’t think my heart could break anymore for them, but it has.

Indeed, they are all Terri's victims. Terri is not a victim.

Justice for Kyron!

Great point about Terri managing to bring Kyron's 2nd-grade teacher into his disappearance.

I've always believed she had a desire "to get even" with his teacher (because she wanted the teacher's job and held her responsible for having the job she [Terri] wanted and felt she deserved). That desire factored into her decision to abduct Kyron from the school.

Just my opinion.

I think she lost her certification or for some reason could not complete it.

Was Terri a certified teacher? I forgot that part of her wanting the teacher’s job.

From an article dated 2010:

After graduating in 2000, Horman got a basic teaching license

She has a bachelor's and a master's degree in education but has never held a full-time teaching job.

The Teacher Standards and Practices Commission said she maintained her basic teaching license until March 2007, then took a break, renewing it in February this year. The state has no record of disciplinary action against her.

Terri really was licensed to teach in 2010 when Kyron went missing. I have bolded the linked quote below offering confirmation.

I have a copy of her 2010 resume. It’s from the “LinkedIn” site. I can’t get into the site to verify it now, and I doubt if it’s still the same. I’d be surprised if she can teach currently.

Since linking her actual 2010 resume is probably not a good idea, I have put together a series of short, linked quotes from a couple of mainstream media articles. Some of the links are duplicates, but I tried to keep the dates in order.

Teachers can do terrible things sometimes, just like anyone in any walk of life.

Something interesting that psychopaths claim to enjoy. "Destroying People". they identify a person in their orbit and then they make a plan to destroy this person, sometimes for no reason in particular, just because they enjoy it.

this teacher was someone I think Terri had it out for...she included her in the whole game, she had inappropriate jealousy of this woman it sounds like, irrational almost, having probs with her and ripping her teaching skills and claiming to be the better choice. it would not surprise me if she felt this teacher took an opportunity from her in some twisted way. there was no doctor appointment...ever. mOO

The following are statements made by law enforcement officials, a judge, and an attorney. These statements would not have been made were there no supporting evidence behind them.

"There is no reason to believe that the kids are in any danger here," Gates said.

1st Flyer, Released June 18, 2010:

Law enforcement would not name her as so much as a person of interest because they would have had to move forward with the case. They did not want to proceed until Kyron was found. This would have been a death penalty case.

Terri could not testify in a civil case because she was a suspect in the criminal case. She risked "either self-incrimination or a waiver of her right to not help the State prosecute her". She has rights and the judge protected them by admitting she was a "prime suspect".

Snipped: [August 20th 2012] By calling her a suspect, the judge said Terri can for now avoid a deposition in the civil case against her.
Judge calls Terri Horman 'suspect,' rules civil suit can continue

Snipped: The focus of the defendant’s motion is to stop the prosecution of this civil case while an ongoing active criminal investigation into both young Kyron Horman’s disappearance in 2010 and a murder-for-hire plot against Kyron’s father, Kaine Horman, is pending, so that the defendant (Terri Horman, Kyron’s step-mother and Kaine’s wife) is not required to decide whether to exercise her constitutional rights against self-incrimination under the United States and Oregon Constitutions before it is necessary to do so in any criminal prosecution which may follow the investigation. The plaintiff is Kyron’s mother. The defendant is a prime suspect in the investigation.
