oh certainly Tulessa, this is a huge point I've been trying to get people to understand for 15 years now. There are reporters that get it right, very few, but the good ones, and the rest who just report what the DC prosecutors say, which is understandable. It's the DC prosecutors who promulgate this lie because the alternative is someone with a car who dumped her body there. That didn't fit their agenda. Neither did Guandique passing a lie detector test about Chandra's murder back in 2001.
They changed it years later to inconclusive to fit their agenda. All they needed then was an inmate who would play ball with them for witness protection plan, and they moved Gandique into a Kentucky prison into his cell briefly to complete the deal.
I analyze the reporting from the beginning, including the jogging thing, in Murder on a Horse Trail. Do a search, it's on my site to read. You will find the reporting on jogging interesting, especially given the initial police statements that correctly stated that this was far from any jogging trails, that Chandra wasn't wearing shoes for running, and that it looked like her body was dumped there.
That all changed when When Chandra disappeared some reporters started reporting that "friends" said that Chandra frequently jogged in Rock Creek Park. Her actual friends, with names, said that jogging was not even a concept she entertained. This was reported. But "friends' without names kept getting reported that she jogged regularly in Rock Creek Park.
My belief is that Condit was the "friend" without a name who told police that she jogged in Rock Creek Park. Now you have to understand that he lived across the street from a Rock Creek Park trail in Adams Morgan section south of the zoo, about a mile and half below Klingle Mansion which is about another mile and half below the hill location where Chandra was hidden, the so called picnic area 18 at top of Glover Road coming up from Beach Drive - Broad Branch Road intersection. So for Condit, Chandra walking from metro stop there could very easily walk on that walk a bit to his condo and he wouldn't be totally lying. Not just totally made up like Morales, because the trail there is part of Rock Creek Park.
But of course if people were take it to mean running up on the major jogging trails, well, that would be the intent.
In any event, reporters were getting this info from someone who claimed to be a "friend" without a name, and Condit is only one that fits that bill. And it fit his agenda. Because of course he also said Chandra was obsessed and distraught because he wouldn't take her calls, and that basically is how the police treated her disappearance and discovery in Rock Creek Park.
