I searched NG’s transcript to confirm Dylan’s mother had actually told NG Dylan would talk back to his father, which is where this information apparently came from, and it wasn’t there!
When NG asked ER about her son’s demeanor she said he was excited about seeing his friends and when asked about Dylan’s relationship with his father, she said ,
” MR was on the road a lot. So he didn`t spend a lot of time with Dylan in the three years prior to Dylan moving to Colorado Springs. So I just don`t think he knew Dylan all that well.”
His mother gave him a cell phone so she’d know where Dylan was at all times and someone shut it off shortly after Dylan met up with his dad on Sunday evening.
ER: Dylan was always good. He always had to wake up for school early. So irrespective of what time he went to bed, you know, he was really good about waking up. So if he had plans at 6:30 to meet with his friends, you know, it`s uncharacteristic of him not to be up and ready. So, you know, I just -- I know him. And I know him very well. And I think that, you know, he definitely would have been up and ready at 6:30, 7:30, whenever in the morning.
REDWINE: Yes. Dylan always kept in touch with me because he knew I was the one paying the phone bill, and if he wouldn`t keep in touch with me, I would take his phone away and he didn`t want that. So he made sure that he always -- there was -- there was never a time I couldn`t account for where Dylan was because he was very good at letting me know where he was at all times.
But he -- you know, on a daily basis, he would definitely always get in touch with me and generally... He`s just the sweet kid every mom dreams of having.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Dylan intended to get up and catch a ride with his dad at 6:30 am because he intended to meet his friends for a game of baseball.
