Let me rephrase- I wouldn't be surprised *if* nail clippings were taken.
I've read what Toni has written concerning it.
I was reading the blog comments and was surprised/shocked by a couple of them on September 10th.
A comment asked if they had all of the copies of police reports and if she would consider posting copies on the blog.
Toni's reply- I'm not sure if that's possible, I don't think we're their favorite people anymore.
I'm stunned, really stunned.
Someone needs to advise this family on procedures in obtaining copies of every document, e-file, scrap of paper associated with this incident. If not Toni and Steve themselves- then a friend or family member. It's not about being favorites. Stunned, I am.
I think sometimes we are surprised that family's haven't done this or that but forget to realize that we have learned so much following all the cases and not everyone has paid attention and when its hits them they are clueless what to do ,which way to turn and don't have an understanding of what they are entitled to. . Im sure just by people finding her blog it has helped her and giving her ideas for directions and things she has never considered.
Even worse when the family's don't have money,resources or friends like attorneys etc.
You know, people were criticizing the persons accused on the blog for not hiring an attorney and suing the heck out of the Ingrams, as if failure to do so was indicative of their guilt. I pointed out that lack of funds could be an issue but that was not a good excuse for some.
So, doesn't that work both ways?
Why hasn't this family sued the heck out of those they suspect for wrongful death, intentional infliction of emotional distress, or whatever?
Actually, in the absence of a lawsuit, the Ingrams can absolutely hire an attorney to get police reports, any reports, etc., from LE. In fact, they don't even need to hire an attorney. Just go in there, pay 25 bucks or so per report and request them.
I believe the family should have been able to at least try to get all the reports necessary to examining their child's case. These are the things that trouble.
Other questions I have:
1. Ms. Ingram stated that Morgan's nails were cut OR ripped at an angle. But I keep seeing only ripped repeated on this thread. There's a big difference. One is a clean line, one is a ragged edge. Which was it?
2. Ms. Ingram states that the first autopsy report had no mention of Flexeril in it, but the second one did, stating that smacks of incompetence. It sure does! When is she going to post the two autopsy reports so we can see for ourselves?
3. What reason was a second autopsy report issued for? Usually, there has to be a stated reason why another autopsy or report needs to be done. What reason did the first doctor give for that?
4. Why was Morgan cremated if the family suspected murder?
5. Why didn't LE gather bedding? Why didn't the coroner cut and examine Morgan's nails for DNA, etc. Were her hands photographed? Where the heck are the reports?
I hope the blog attracts MILLIONS of followers, who all insist on answers from the state of Colorado and from LE. We are hearing one side here and these are some pretty serious accusations pointing to incompetence at best. I don't think LE can really respond more than it already has until they get sued, or decide to reopen the investigation. But I am chomping at the bit to hear the other side. Because right now, there are some holes for me.
