CR's Stmt, as Conveyed to Hoover PD by her Atty, July 24.
Excerpts from below:*
"this was a single act done by herself"
"she made a mistake in this matter"
Nope, Nope, NOPE. NOT a SINGLE mistake, NOT a SINGLE act.
Saying SINGLE two times does not make it true.
CR made a whole LOTTA mistakes.
Like, online searches, 2(?) days prior tend to show premeditation for making a false report to LE, which is a crime.
Plus robe, other things, if stolen from Woodhouse Spa (Thur night?). Crim theft.
IF CR broke & entered a house (like Goldilocks & the Three Bears?), a crime.
Then continuing w various actions.
Amounting to MULTIPLE CRIMES, imo.
Does CR have the constitutional right to issue this stmt thru atty and NOT admit to any crimes?
Absolutely, positively yes.
Did the stmt (purportedly from CR, lol) DENY any CRIME(s)?
NOPE. (Well, she has not yet been charged, so why deny?)
And we wait.

July 24. Statement from Russell's attorney, Emery Anthony, reads as follows:
"There was no kidnapping on Thursday, July 13, 2023. My client did not see a baby on the side of the road. My client did not leave the Hoover area when she was identified as a missing person. My client did not have any help in this incident — this was a single act done by herself. My client was not with anyone or any hotel with anyone from the time she was missing. My client apologizes for her actions to this community, the volunteers who were searching for her, to the Hoover Police Department and other agencies as well and to her friends and family. We ask for your prayers for Carlee as she addresses her issues and attempts to move forward, understanding that she made a mistake in this matter."
The 25-year-old Alabama woman went missing for two days earlier this month. But police said last week they were unable to verify most of her initial statements to investigators.
