Well, I'm just saying the roof repair contract she sent to the FBI was not how they discovered the earlier Continuum
Oh, but just not from Patti. Makes sense. Although it’s pretty easy to look in various databases they must have access to for any addresses they’ve ever had, no? Or just interview people. People know where they lived. Katie knows the place was at Continuum. People met them when they moved down to South Beach. There are school records, it’s a public school and you have to have an address in the district. They must have sent out investigators. I’ve never understood why they didn’t interview Katie sooner than when they arrested her.
It does seem to me like the state has been sort of going with the assumption that they lived in the Icon this whole time. But they didn’t have to. Wouldn’t they at the very least have checked the Icon lease and found it puzzling that they only got it in 2015, when supposedly per Wendi they were spending weekends at a rental on South Beach before the murder? Did they think they were in Coral Springs still? With the boys in school in Miami?
I was surprised when the cop said at Charlie’s trial that the texts during Harvey’s birthday came from “the vicinity of the Icon.” It’s true that Continuum is “in the vicinity of the Icon.” Maybe they just didn’t want to confuse Charlie’s jury.
I do recall, now that I think about it, that they didn’t ask Wendi on the stand exactly where she went when she left Tallahassee with her parents. I think they said “South Florida,” but they didn’t ask her specifically. I don’t think they asked her when she moved to the Beach.
Remember, they’re not allowed to investigate anything they might have gotten from her answers, and they’re not allowed to use anything they’ve got unless they can show that they got it another way.
My guess is they didn’t ask her a lot of stuff they know.
