I think there is some evidence that Becky was thrown over the balcony as reviewed by MEs -- both in San Diego and Dr. Wecht -- based on the extensive damage suggestive of a hanging to her throat area. There was also a second thin ligature mark that also suggested possible strangulation that was done not by the rope noose. The extent of Becky's torn neck area and the multiple ligature marks suggest to me that she was both strangled and tossed over the balcony like a piece of garbage by the perps.
As I've said before, I'm still on the fence about Adam's involvement in Becky's murder. One thing I am 100% positive of is that Becky was murdered. Based on all the available physical evidence, she did not commit suicide.
If you listen to the 911 tape made by Adam from a neutral perspective, and from the understanding that Adam may have some social deficits -- awkwardness in answering questions and inappropriate replies to questions -- you might be able to see that in a state of uncertainty, shock, and ignorance about how to handle a hanging (I'm assuming he found Becky hanging as he stated to cops), and the fact that the 911 operator asked him if Becky were still alive, he simply repeated what the operator asked, "Are you alive" to Becky, rather than fully comprehending the ramifications of his questions to a probably already dead Becky.
Also, I do recall from my own personal CPR training, that the first thing we were instructed to always ask a possible victim is "Are you okay?" and pat them on their shoulders in case they were only sleeping or they were semi-conscious. "Are you okay" may be analogous to "Are you alive" in Adam's mind at that time. IDK
I think from those of us looking in from the outside, because of Jonah's wealth and professional success vs. that of Adam's, based on purely societal's definitions of success, we see that there may be some jealousy of Adam towards Jonah. But then, I also think, that socioeconomic status is not all that defines a genuinely successful, happy person, and some people, perhaps Adam, might have recognized his own limitations and did not feel the need to compare himself with Jonah's financial success. So unless we have some proof in the form of personal testimonies from Adam's friends or even family members, I think we should give him the benefit of the doubt that he might not have been jealous of Jonah.
Also based on what Ann Rule wrote, that Jonah always invited Adam to family functions, and Adam seemed to always attend, and there was no mention of any conflicts at these functions, I think it is safe to say that Adam likely did not resent nor was he jealous of Jonah. I can be wrong, but I'd like to see some evidence of Adam's resentment towards Jonah before automatically casting him as a jealous, resentful brother to Jonah.
Re: Adam texting Jonah. It appears this family seems to text more than make voice calls to each other. But I understand what you're saying, because generally when there's an emergency, we want to make sure the other person we're calling hears the exact message regarding the crisis rather than text them in words. But in this case, given Adam's awkward words and conduct, maybe Adam felt more comfortable texting than voicing the incident. Maybe he feared he'd say the wrong thing orally, but texting felt safer and more accurate to him. I'm just thinking aloud.
I don't think Adam would admit to viewing *advertiser censored* on his Iphone if he knew Becky's computer had been accessed the day before for Asian anime bondage/lesbian *advertiser censored*. But it'd be most helpful if we were given the types of *advertiser censored* Adam engages in regularly. If he does watch the same type of *advertiser censored* found on Becky's computer, then perhaps he is involved in Becky's murder. On the other hand, it could also mean that the perps knew about Adam's propensity towards a specific type of Asian *advertiser censored* and decided to frame him as a patsy. LOL IDK, I'm still on the fence regarding Adam.
