Agreed. and I have tended to think that BL and the phones were disposed of together. So...rethinking...
if thinking PDI, it does make more sense that BL was disposed of earlier perhaps right after the 11:57 call, and then the phones were disposed of later. (whereinthefrick?)
If thinking SODDI, the 11:57 attempted call was (to place blame?); ditched phones within the 1/3 mile radius, then came back to get them, disable them, hide them. :waitasec:
I can't figure how they'd be unrelated, b/c if (for example) DB couldn't sleep, worried about JI, got up and tried the phone at 11:57, went back to bed, got back up several hours later and he's still not there, so she tried some way to access voice mail to see if he called her. That's reasonable, EXCEPT for the open door to baby's room, and all the lights on. :banghead:
