AM did have a Felony Elude charge in 2003...but it was nol prossed too! What's this guy got on someone else?

In between my years as a child protective services worker and a mental health counselor, I worked as a paralegal. Courts are funny things (funny as in 'odd'). 'Contributing to the delinquency' of a minor is a very vague charge and might have nothing to do with what the perp actually did. The...

We need to remember that while Tina and Brittany lived in Salem/Roanoke, her family lived in Halifax Co. which is 2 hrs away. We don't know which of Tina's friends might have known that JE was living with her. But with her work schedule, it's not out of the question that her relatives and she...

I just don't think BS has the luxury of deciding what crimes JE will be charged with, unfortunately. But, assuming that she does, do you think that the cops that found her, or the cops in VA, including her father, would NOT want her to undergo a GYN exam? She'd spent several days alone with a...

Under the circumstances, I believe that they would have sedated her had she objected to a GYN exam. She might have been under some sedation anyway, given the turn of events...the reality of the whole ordeal had to have set in hard when police got involved. I'm not talking about...

I think you're 100% right re: a physical exam. Since they didn't know just how deeply JE had his claws into her psyche, it's very possible that even after his arrest, she would have still been protecting him (or herself from his threats) by claiming he hadn't touched her so just the...

I'd like to say a few words about the child protective services offices that the relatives contacted. I'm not defending them, but, having spent 10 yrs working for such an agency in 2 different states, I can tell you that they do not operate as we the public believe that they do or should...

Though I don't know how long the Smiths have been divorced, I do know that Brittany's father has only been a cop for 2-3 yrs. Before that, he worked in industry.

Someone made a post earlier about Brittany, going through all of this, has walked in the shoes of an adult...that 12 was a pretty precarious age at best and that Brittany's age had just been seriously complicated by all she's gone through. That is precisely the case. Brittany's re-adjustment...

I worked with troubled kids for many years. I don't think it's unusual that none of BS's family went to SF to get her. This is a very delicate situation...probably more delicate than any of us want to think about (and I'm not implying that BS is/was in any way complicit). The chances are high...

Service organizations...Red Cross, ministerial associations, etc....often have $ for tickets for stranded motorists but, if they dealt with an agency, it's even more amazing that they didn't get caught. Folks on buses don't tend to be very attentive though. Besides, have the cops seen the bus...

You're forgetting that the car would get more than 1 mile per gallon. If it actually got 25, the lower figure would be correct.

Which Roanoke station is most likely to stream the presser?

I think the police on every level are playing this very close to the vest. The quickest way to get someone to take a big chance or do something very visible is to say you don't have a clue as to where he is or what he's doing, even when you do. I'm not saying I think they're close to finding...

He didn't know his father (who is not Brittany's father, BTW) but his mother thought he was running with a bad crowd and sent him to live with his father. There is much speculation about the 'choking game' theory of his death. He was very unhappy at his father's and did not want to be there...

Friends of mine dove-hunt occasionally with Brittany's father. If she's visiting, he brings her sometimes...I think she hunts some too. VA's dove season opens in early Sept...it was downright hot this year when the season opened and Brittany was dressed for the weather. They've told me that...
