Are you talking acreage that the home sits on ? It does not look like a really large lot . There is also a home down the way that he owns in a neighborhood.
Thanks for answering. I just seen the vast forest he has behind his home and was wondering how much of it he owned or how familiar he was with the woods.
Now the rest of this is just my opinion so please don't beat me up.
MR has a high tolerance for alcohol, as per his lie detector test on the Dr. Phil show. He was in all accounts functioning normally after drinking half a bottle of whiskey (if I remember right). This leads me to believe that he is a daily drinker, especially when it was early a.m. when the test was going to occur. The majority of alcoholics drink to numb themselves from their stress and emotions. MR's lack of emotion in this case verifies with me his alcoholism.
Next, if there were domestic violence incidents involving MR, was it hitting, choking, throwing things, or what? What set MR off in the first place? Talking back, looking at him wrong, silence, etc? Dylan looks small for his age, not capable of defending himself from someone MR's size.
There are also about 10 hours between the time Dylan last sent his message to the time MR was seen in town. MR did roughly 4 hours of errands and came home to take about a 5 hour nap. The nap gets me thinking that he didn't sleep that night. This is where I was getting to the point of the forest behind his house.
Now the lake theory seems plausible, but if MR did it (and I don't know how smart he is), I wouldn't have pointed out the location of Dylan to LE if I was him. I would want people to look in the exact opposite location of where I was hiding something.
This is just my opinion and thanks for listening.
