GUILTY FL - Cherish Perrywinkle, 8, Jacksonville, 21 June 2013 #1

[Donjeta]

When after three hours the wifey didn't show up with the gift card it should have been rather evident that either the wifey doesn't exist or if she does she's probably pissed that her husband hits on females in stores and offers to buy them stuff with her money and ain't gonna come.

"Rayne Perrywinkle called the Sheriff’s Office about 11 p.m. Friday saying her daughter had gone to a McDonald’s with a man named Don a half-hour earlier and not returned."

Ohhh, how interesting how when the police arrived she knew where the daughter was supposed to be and how long ago she left. Hmmm, that doesn't sound much like the damage-control story she told to the media about not realizing her daughter wandered off. Also a more precise timeline of events in the article. Mom called 911 at 11:18 p.m. and officers arrived at 11:28. If I recall correctly, Perv and Cherish left the store at 10:40. Interesting to note that Walmart closes at 11:00.

Please also note that quote says "her daughter had gone to a McDonald's with a man named Don," not "the McDonald's."

AstroKitty - The quoting thing went wonky, so I just bolded some of your questions.

Why didn't she just go work a day shift or whatever? I'm sure there's a real reason but it's the first that came to mind.

I'm not sure there will be a real reason.

How was he going to spend the gift card on her at dollar general anyway? Because that's how this story is told and starts out:
Why didn't he just buy the outfit at DG when he offered? how did the conversation about about another store even come into play?

He never offered to buy her anything at DG, that has been disclosed. His story was that he had a giftcard at Walmart, and that is how he could buy her the dress. (Like, he didn't have the cash to do it at DG, but he has the giftcard, so they have to go there if she wants the dress.) He was not goingto spend the giftcard at DG, only at Walmart. That's why they headed there.

How was he in contact with his "wife"? There has to have been a cell phone although Walmart does have payphones (I called and checked lol -they are in the front of the store where you walk in). Also DG has them outside the store.

None of that has been disclosed. I'm guessing the DG surveillance and employees will explain that. DG came out today and said they are fully cooperating with authorities.

The lack of communication is where I'm "stuck", then comes the trust of a stranger, not calling 911 TILL THE STORE CLOSED etc.

I have seriously thought that maybe she didn't notice her gone, until they started making the closing announcements for the store. She needed him to get the items and she had to find him. I wonder if she was looking for HIM at first (to pay, once she heard the store was closing) and realized they weren't there. And THEN worried about her daughter. Those are just all my personal thoughts. I just find the fact that she noticed her gone when the store was closing...curious.

Thank you!!

I just discussed this with a neighbor and her exact words were:

"Who the heck drags their kids to stores when they know they don't have money? Kids will drive you crazy asking for things and then you feel awful when you have to say no".

I wonder why her hinky meter didn't go off when he had money for mcdonalds but no money at DG? But the selfishness (sorry y'all but it is) that she would ignore the creep factor, drag her kids around OUT OF TOWN when it came to something SHE wanted - is astounding to me. Why not drop the kids back off at home? Nothing here makes any sense. Nothing. I feel so awful for all of those who's lives are forever changed by a damn dress.

I can't get this case out of my head. I have so many questions.

Did Rayne make any purchases that night? Part of me wonders if the $100 was payment for Cherish. Please understand I'm just wondering, I have seen nothing MSM to indicate that is the case, I'm just curious because it does happen. Mothers let men pay them to use their daughter for a while.

Or was Rayne really duped by the perp? Was she so involved in picking out her new dress that she didn't realize her daughter was gone? Maybe so.

At the risk of sounding like a snob or completely ignorant...

Does the Walmart even sell $100 dresses?

Could you even imagine what it would feel or seem like to be minding your own business with 3 young children and remark to them you want something but can't afford it - to have some rando guy pop his head around the corner and then suddenly OFFER to buy it for you? I would be so weirded out that someone was listening that close to my conversation.

According to their website, no. I think the most is 24.99. But was that what she was shopping for in DG? because I'm under the impression that's what she was looking at or for while there and then went to walmart because he had a gift card. What I don't get is why was he even DG if he didn't have funds for a dress that I'm guessing wasn't over 20.00 to start with?

Here is an example of the sort of thing I presume teachers contacted father about. And father couldn't be at the school dropping off his daughter. He was not awarded primary custody despite trying for years. So I fail to see why he should be blamed for not being able to drop her off at school.

"Wilkinson tells our partner Action News Rayne Perrywinkle has a spotty track record as a mother. He referenced one incident in which she was told Cherish had head lice and couldn't ride the bus to school. Wilkinson says Rayne ignored that warning and sent Cherish to school anyway, resulting in her being stranded twice at the school."

Nobody is blaming him for not dropping his child off at school. It was
physically impossible for him to do so since he lived in a different state.

What I meant was that it is not like any teachers would see the father on a daily basis and discuss Cherish with him. In order for a teacher to discuss their concerns they would have to phone him. That I find odd since they would call up a non-custodial parent with child welfare concerns.

The father is a victim as is the mother and the other children and all family involved.

 

[MsFacetious]

I also feel bad for those who tried to help Cherish.
I hope they know that this isn't their fault.

My sentiments exactly. I've went as far as to wonder if they had met before and he "owed" her this promise of a gift card .. so she stuck around to make sure he made good on his promise. That's a long time to shop and while I've wandered around malls and things to kill time while on tour .. 2 hours is sort of the max. I noticed employee's start eyeballing customers if you linger too long. i've always grown bored or felt "bad" for hanging around places more than a normal amount of time. I can't even picture a child who would be entertained more than 30 minutes in a store... even with toy aisles. You can only stare and window shop so long before you're bored with it all - not to mention how bad it would just feel to know you can't afford anything.

Yeah.. . I think "thanks but no thanks" would be my kneejerk response. Even if it wasn't a murderous pervert it's just odd and intrusive and I'd be weirded out if a stranger just offered to give me $100 for no particular reason.

It is the wife of the attorney who did the evaluation.

OT but I am surprised that the wife of an evaluator is posting publicly. I really don't think it is her place to comment on one of her husband's case files.

 

[AzPistonsGirl]

DG sells clothing? Seriously, I had no idea. I figured they don't and that is why they went to WM.

Goodness! You aren't kidding!! In her interview where she requests that her face not be shown she makes it seem that she Cherish "must have" run off to McDonalds with the perv, but in the statement to police she states that she knew for sure. Do I have that right?

I've been reading this thread without comment so far, and I keep wondering....what was the purpose of her trip to DG, and did she end up buying anything? If the purpose was a dress for Cherish, then one would think she would have brought and had enough money to pay for that item, no?

 

[Magdalyn]

This is the most comprehensive timeline I've seen so far. Forgive me if this has already been posted.

I have a question too. Does Dollar General carry dresses for girls? Consistently? It's been a while since I've been in one and I don't remember seeing a lot (if any) clothing items other that socks/underwear, flip-flops, that kind of stuff.

According to the boyfriend:

""When Rayne was at the dollar store she was a little short on the money she needed for the dresses and [Smith] noticed that and said 'you know my wife has this extra gift certificate she doesn't need', you know, we're just going to give it to you," said Pearson

ETA: He also states in the same article that "It was a normal Friday night and Aharon Pearson said Rayne Perrywinkle and Cherish were doing what they always do, shopping at dollar stores. The night started at the Dollar General on Edgewood Avenue."
