Snipped and Bolded By Me Above for Emphasis: "The cops did not ask about her shirt that day, the state has never asked about it, and they didn't find it suspicious".....my singular response is NOT YET!
I saw pic of WA and KM sunbathing on the beach, drinks in hand, two single Moms, two children each, going through recent break ups. KM often refers to Sigfredo/Tuto interchangeably. Perhaps the subject of why he is called/nicknamed Tuto came up. I know if I was hanging on the beach with someone who called their boyfriend "Tuto," I would ask why? If someone called their ex "Jibbers," I would ask why. (Remember my moniker is IQuestion, for the reason I am very curious and always probing.) If someone called CA "maestro," I would ask why and maestro isn't an English word either but I would research it and its origin, too.
People are given "nicknames" for a reason...we don't know why about until we ask/probe. (Maybe Sig/Tuto got his nickname because his light eyes, sapphire blue, reminded them of a barn owl's. Or he stays up late at night?) How can anyone be so sure WA didn't know, too? How many times have we heard how smart/articulate she is? (Too clever by half,imo.) And, just like the drive down Trescott, "she just couldn't help herself."
Once is an accident. Twice is a coincidence. Three times is evidence! There are no coincidences in this vein...trust me. If I can know it/find it, so can WA...even if only a subliminal choice of attire for that morning.
Just a gut feeling, ok?
First of all, the word for owl in Spanish is búho, not Tuto, and I doubt Rivera is familiar with Greek. (Indeed, on the stand at Katie’s trial, Rivera didn’t even appear to know the word for Owl in English, calling it a Lion.)
Again, even assuming Wendi knew that one of the killers was nicknamed Tuto, (and there is no evidence that Katie OR Charlie even knew Rivera was one of the killers), and that she knew Tuto was a Greek derivation for owl, what was the purpose of the shirt? A shout-out?
Remember, the evidence is that she did not leave her home until after the murder was committed, so it could not have served as any kind of “signal” related to the planning or execution of the crime itself.
And even if it was some after-the-fact “shoutout,” (“thanks for a job well done”), how would Luis, or any of the alleged conspirators, have seen that she was wearing it? Did they check out her mugshot? How would they have known in advance there would BE a mugshot to check?
And, finally, even if you assume the shirt had some significance, which I don’t, how can it possibly be related in ANY way to Luis’s random sighting of an owl the night before the murder, outside the very hotel he was staying at?
It defies logic to imagine that anyone knew or planned for that owl to be there, for them to be there at the exact time the owl was (Uber Owls?), and for Luis to see it, photograph it, post the photo for a brief second so Wendi could see it, and then be told immediately by Katie to take it down, and THEN for Wendi to put on an owl shirt the next day.
And, even if you assume all that happened, which I don’t, why? What was the owl photo supposed to mean? That the killers were in town? That Wendi should put on her owl shirt and do a shout-out? Why? The evidence suggests that the fact that the killers were in town was known to Katie and Charlie, and most likely, (based on some of her actions such as texting Dan asking whether he would be in town,) Wendi, even prior to their ever setting out for Tallahassee.
Sometimes an owl is just an owl.
