Makes me wonder if "someone" came into the bedroom while she was out and perhaps checked her phone, taking it outside the room before lighting it up, then sneaking it back into the room. I'd guess SS, but there were other people in the house.
Or, Jen was walking around during the time she said she was sleeping with the door cracked open because she has a cat.
and.....the rain sounds playing on the tv: keep in mind she claims earlier in the interview she sleeps through the nite....yet she answers this below much later in the interview.....
She was specifically asked what Maddie ate at home that night (nothing, apparently) and what was served at the birthday party. I think they know the stomach contents?
I would think they would have an accurate and detailed account of what Madeline ate at the party from her grandmother and other guests including the time she ate. I also think that her body was found in time for forensics to be able to examine the contents of her stomach so presumably they could work out a time of death with a reasonably close timeframe.
I found it telling, as well, that Jen said she usually gets up to make Maddie breakfast before school and confirmed that M is a breakfast eater. Yet, Maddie left home extra early only to "sleep in the car" and skip a take-out breakfast that takes minutes to order and eat. And Jen just rolled over and refreshed the rain video.
Dead girls don't eat. So JS could get those extra zzzzs.
Not at all, she didnt even acknowledge it (enabling) which I found odd, no guilty rants excusing her own behavior " I didnt know, I didnt see it coming." Instead ramblings about how she wouldnt let her go on sleepovers, or about people snapping pics under a door. Sounds to me like she was trying to sell herself as this responsible attentive mother and by telling these stories she is hoping you'll form the impression that she is super attentive and had no idea what was right under her nose, so the police can just keep it moving, no need to look here....
(my pet peeve seed planters)and that is codependency in action. because she wanted him around to do what she couldnt, ( didnt want to) other men never stuck around, for whatever reason, but he sure did, the payoff: she got her own needs met. For me anyway, her hugging him in the beginning, her lack of any heated response about anything when talking to police, and her rehearsed sounding answers are starting to make more sense. ( and by sense I mean in a selfish way, b/c it met her own needs) she needed a nanny.
can I get an amen up in here !!! Preach.
Or, just keep supplies on hand in case they are needed. Why not stored in the bathroom cabinet with the toilet paper, soap, shampoo, toothpaste, etc., like other households inhabited by girls?
I have been racking my brain, trying to figure out what JS could mean by her text message to SS.
I don't know what she was referring to but I assuming it wasn't a good thing.
Yes, in context of the questions and answers JS was being asked when she was asked about the subject text sent to SS in June 2023 late evening, I believe JS was saying she doesn't want MS sleeping with her because she can't risk not getting a good nights sleep.
Or had Maddie threatened to tell? Seems like her and JS were fighting a lot toward the end if we are to believe CS and DS. And that’s based on SS’s account. I think he loved that they fought. He got to groom Maddie to hate her mother more and in turn manipulate Jen into feeling like the struggling mother with a difficult pre-teen.
Could be-- nobody knows coming from JS. However, this text was sent to SS in June 2023 after 9 pm. I think it helps if one reads how/when the subject of the text came up during the interview. In response, JS said she did not remember the text.
But would you know the last time you saw them?
I haven't heard anything that JS did for her daughter's 13th birthday, unless I missed it. You'd think she'd mention something about her own celebration with Maddie.
I agree iamshadow21….. and even more perplexing IMO…… if the state really thinks they need JS for any testimony or evidence….. why no charges? Isn’t it often seen where multiple parties are charged, and eventually one might either cooperate or agree to lesser charges or a plea in exchange for testimony against another?
