Hi again peeps.
I'm throwing down a challenge.
Here's audio that has been released from 3 police interviews with JS:
And here is audio that has been released from 3 police interviews with SS:
The challenge: how many discrepancies between their stories can you spot?
Have fun!*
*disclaimer: that was sarcastic. This case is tragic and heartbreaking, and there's nothing fun about it, but I'm very glad they both are such terrible liars who didn't rehearse the story enough not to contradict each other.
I took some notes but I'm too tired to transcribe them ATM. But off the top of my head:
1. SS says he went home after the first unsuccessful attempt at the vape store to hang out with JS before going back, vs
JS says he told her about the trips to the vape store over the phone and never mentions being home when he arrived after the first trip.
2. JS recounted the story of helping SS get the leash on the dog twice, I believe, vs
SS never mentions anything about the dog.
3. In SS's account, JS was napping most of the time after she got back from her blood work appointment, vs
JS says she just hung out and never mentions napping.
4. JS makes a slip and says Maddie changed her mind about going to McDonald's
the night before, then within a minute later says she learned about it during the phone call mentioned in #1.
5. JS says she heard Maddie getting ready for school that morning, then within a minute later says she heard people in the kitchen but she wasn't sure she heard Maddie.
6. SS says he splits his time living between JS's place and and his parents', vs
JS says he's moved out and they're trying to get him back there.
7. SS says he was zonked out on Ativan the night of Maddie's disappearance, so LE would have to ask JS if they went anywhere, vs
JS says SS got up in the middle of the night and went "cruising" around in her car looking for Maddie. She knew this because the next morning her seat had been moved so she asked him about it and he had to remind her yeah, don't you remember? I woke up you and told you that's what I was going to do.
